Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2018100305A1] The invention relates to a device (18) for distributing a refrigerant (FR) inside a collector box (7) of a heat exchanger (5). The distribution device (18) comprises at least one duct (14) extending along a longitudinal axis (A1) defining the longitudinal extension direction of the distribution device (18). The first duct (14) includes, at a first one of the longitudinal ends (15) thereof, an intake mouth (10) for allowing refrigerant (FR) to enter into the first duct (14) and is closed at the second longitudinal end (16) thereof. The first duct (14) includes, along at least one portion of the longitudinal axis (A1) thereof, a plurality of openings (17) for discharging refrigerant (FR) from the first duct (14). At least two openings (17), adjacent along the longitudinal axis (A1) of the first duct (14), are tilted towards the second end (16) of the first duct (14), the opening (17a) thereof towards the inside of the first duct (14) being closer to the first end (15) thereof than to the opening (17b) thereof towards the outside of the first duct (14).
