摘要

The collector has a flat plate (20) equipped with holes (22) for receiving tubes of a heat exchanger and raised lateral edges (24) extending at an angle from the plate. The lateral edges are interconnected by a curved segment in which ribs (52) are provided, where each rib has a convexity extending in a direction in which the edges extend. The plate has ribs (50) between the holes, where each additional rib has convexity extending in opposite direction to that in which edges extend.
