Heat exchanger having an integrated flap (damper)

摘要

The invention relates to a heat exchanger designed with a water box (1) which is subdivided by a partition (5) into two chambers connected to one another by tubes (81, 82). A passage (2) which is normally closed by a flap (4) is provided in said partition. The passage (2) is surrounded on one side of the partition (5) by an inclined supporting surface, while the flap comprises an elastic plate (4) in the shape of a T, the bar (41) of which is designed to correspond to said supporting surface and whose limbs are mounted in the thickness of the partition (5), with the result that they pretension the T-web on the said supporting surface.
