Abstract
wherein the inlet and the outlet are developed in different plate elements, and wherein the inlet and/or the outlet is or are provided in a protrusion of the plate elements, wherein the protrusion(s) has or have an extent along the housing that has a component perpendicular to a straight line connecting the inlet and the outlet.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 .- 7 . (canceled)
8 . A heat exchanger for an internal combustion engine, developed for cooling air by means of a cooling fluid, comprising:
a housing that comprises in its interior volume tubes for conducting the air to be cooled that extend through the housing; an inlet and an outlet for the cooling fluid that are developed in the housing,
wherein the housing comprises several plate elements that form the housing, wherein the inlet and the outlet are developed in different plate elements, and
wherein the inlet and/or the outlet is or are provided in a protrusion of the plate elements, wherein the protrusion has or have an extent along the housing, that has a component perpendicular to a straight line connecting the inlet and the outlet.
9 . A heat exchanger according to claim 8 , wherein the tubes open out into base plates of the heat exchanger and wherein the inlet and/or the outlet for the cooling fluid is and/or are developed in a plate element that is integral with the associated base plate.
10 . A heat exchanger according to claim 9 , wherein the base plate and the component of the plate element into which the inlet or the outlet open out are substantially perpendicular with respect to one another.
11 . A heat exchanger according to claim 10 , wherein the plate element of the base plate further comprises encompassing components that border on the base plate and wherein these encompassing components, together with the component into which the inlet or the outlet opens out, encompass the base plate.
12 . A heat exchanger according to claim 8 , wherein the plate element in which the inlet and/or the outlet is or are provided overlaps another plate element of the housing such that the other plate element partially delimits the hollow volume formed by the protrusion.
13 . A heat exchanger according to claim 8 , wherein the housing has substantially the form of a parallelepiped and wherein the inlet and the outlet are developed on the same side of the parallelepiped.
14 . A heat exchanger according to claim 8 , wherein at least one protrusion is in the shape of an L.
15 . A heat exchanger according to claim 9 , wherein the plate element in which the inlet and/or the outlet is or are provided overlaps another plate element of the housing such that the other plate element partially delimits the hollow volume formed by the protrusion.
16 . A heat exchanger according to claim 10 , wherein the plate element in which the inlet and/or the outlet is or are provided overlaps another plate element of the housing such that the other plate element partially delimits the hollow volume formed by the protrusion.
17 . A heat exchanger according to claim 11 , wherein the plate element in which the inlet and/or the outlet is or are provided overlaps another plate element of the housing such that the other plate element partially delimits the hollow volume formed by the protrusion.
18 . A heat exchanger according to claim 9 , wherein the housing has substantially the form of a parallelepiped and wherein the inlet and the outlet are developed on the same side of the parallelepiped.
19 . A heat exchanger according to claim 10 , wherein the housing has substantially the form of a parallelepiped and wherein the inlet and the outlet are developed on the same side of the parallelepiped.
20 . A heat exchanger according to claim 11 , wherein the housing has substantially the form of a parallelepiped and wherein the inlet and the outlet are developed on the same side of the parallelepiped.
21 . A heat exchanger according to claim 12 , wherein the housing has substantially the form of a parallelepiped and wherein the inlet and the outlet are developed on the same side of the parallelepiped.
22 . A heat exchanger according to claim 9 , wherein the housing has substantially the form of a parallelepiped and wherein the inlet and the outlet are developed on the same side of the parallelepiped.
23 . A heat exchanger according to claim 9 , wherein at least one protrusion is in the shape of an L.
24 . A heat exchanger according to claim 10 , wherein at least one protrusion is in the shape of an L.
25 . A heat exchanger according to claim 11 , wherein at least one protrusion is in the shape of an L.
26 . A heat exchanger according to claim 20 , wherein at least one protrusion is in the shape of an L.
27 . A heat exchanger according to claim 21 , wherein at least one protrusion is in the shape of an L.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
