Adsorber/desorber for heating apparatus using zeolithe

摘要

An absorption/desorption component for a zeolite heater has a pipe (2) surrounded by zeolite pellets (3). Each pellet has a baffle cover (1) fixed to the pipe at regular intervals (X). The baffle cover has a beaded edge. The gap (Y) between adjacent cover (1) beaded edges is less than the pre-determined tolerance of the smallest pellet. The lamella are penetrated by tubes of preferably of oval cross section. An Independent claim is included for a process for making the above unit in which the flat lamella are pushed onto a pipe (2). The pellets are then inserted and the lamella edges beaded by folding along weak lines.
