Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2520891A1] The heat exchanger has a housing, and a storage mass (2) comprising flow channels (3) and cylinder front surfaces (10, 20). A peripheral seal is arranged on a casing surface (2a) of the storage mass, and has sealing profiles (31a, 31b). The seal has buckling springs (40) fastened to the casing surface. Stoppers (43a, 43b) are formed for pressing the profiles at housing front surfaces by restoring force of the springs. The seal has pressing areas (44a, 44b) for holding the profiles in contact with the casing surface such that lifting of the profiles from the casing surface is inhibited.
