Abstract (en)

A condenser for vehicle air-conditioning systems which includes at least one row of tubes (12) fixed to a stack of substantially flat fins (14) by mechanical expansion of the tubes (12) after they have been inserted into aligned holes (26) in the fins (14). The condenser includes a pair of containment members (20) fitted to the portions (12a, 12b) of tubes between the manifolds (16, 18) and the stack of fins (14) so as to resist the radial deformations of these portions of tubes (12a, 12b). <IMAGE>
