Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for the simplified production of a device for exchanging heat, in particular for motor vehicles, as well as to a device and an air conditioning system produced accordingly.
- heat exchangers for motor vehicles are generally manufactured by preassembling their main components to form a block and soldering them in this form in a furnace.
- the closing pipes or connecting pieces required for operation are only soldered or welded in a subsequent work step.
- connection pipes on the heat exchanger block In order to rationalize production and reduce production costs, it is desirable to save this additional operation of subsequent soldering or welding of the connecting pipes. For this purpose, sufficient pre-fixing of the connection pipes on the heat exchanger block must be ensured before soldering.
- the U.S. 6,129,146 A discloses a heat exchanger with a collecting device and with a connecting pipe which has beads for holding the connecting pipe in an opening of the collecting device.
