Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2458312A1] A heat exchanger, namely a charge air cooler or a exhaust gas cooler comprises a pipe block (14) formed by a plurality of pipes (16), the pipes opening at both ends in a respective tank (12, 12') for a first fluid. The pipes (16) are maintained at both ends by a respective header plate (18) having through openings (20) therein for the pipes (16). A cover (22, 22', 22") extends between the tanks (12, 12') and laterally surrounds the pipe block (14). Mechanical locking means are integrated in the cover about both pipe block ends to maintain the respective tanks (12, 12') in place on the pipe block (14).
