Abstract (en)
A jig for expanding an opening of a heat exchanger tube, the jig includes an expanding blade (220) and a main body (210). The expanding blade (220) protrudes from the main body (210) toward an opening side (111a) of the tube (111). The expanding blade (220) is disposed on a predetermined position corresponding to a narrow side (111b) of the tube (111). The expanding blade is capable of moving inside of the tube (111) so that the narrow side (111b) of the tube (111) is expanded. The expanding blade (220) includes a surface (220a) having a taper shape, which inclines on the narrow side (111b) toward a top end (220b) of the expanding blade (220) in a case where the blade (220) is inserted into the tube (111). The tube (111) has a rectangular flat cross section so that the narrow side (111b) is determined by the rectangular flat cross section of the opening (111a). The tube (111) disposed inside of a tube hole (121a) includes an inner fin (114) therein. <IMAGE>
