Abstract (en)

[origin: WO02079708A2] A header for use in heat exchanger includes a base wall (20) with a plurality of tube insertion apertures (23), an opposite wall (30) opposed to the base wall (20), a pair of side walls (40a and 40b) disposed at both lateral sides of the base wall (20) and the opposite wall (30) and connecting the lateral sides and are inforcing walls (50a and 50b) disposed betwwen the base wall (20) and the opposite wall (30) along a longitudinal direction thereof and connecting the base wall (20) with the opposite wall (30). The side walls (40a and 40b) are integrally formed at both lateral sides of the base wall (20) by bending processing. A first half (30a) of the opposite wall (30) is integrally formed at a side of one of the side walls (40a) by bending processing, and a second half (30b) of the opposite wall (30) is integrally formed at a side of the other of the side walls (40b) by bending processing. Reinforcing walls (50a and 50b) are integrally formed at sides of the first half (30a) and the second half (30b) of the opposite wall (30) by bending processing. With this header for use in heat exchanger, high pressure resistance can be obtained, and the number of parts and the manufacturing cost can be decreased.
