Radiator with integrated header tank and pump

摘要

A radiator (10) with molded plastic header tanks (14,18) has an electric coolant pump and housing assembly (20) integrally formed with the outlet header tank (18). A first half (24) of the pump housing is integrally molded into the header tank (18) and a low point and across a smooth and wide transition. The second half of the pump housing (26) mates at a sealed circular seam to the first half, with an electric coolant pump (28) held closely inside the two. No fasteners are needed to mount the pump, and the assembly minimizes parts and potential leak points.
