Abstract (en)
A manifold (100) for a heat exchanger (200) includes a header (110) and a cover (120). The header (110) includes a bottom wall (112) and two sidewalls (114) and (116). Each sidewall (114, 116) has a first section (114a, 116a) with a first thickness "t" and a second section (114b, 116b) with a second thickness "T". The first thickness "t" is smaller than the second thickness "T" and steps (118a) and (118b) formed at interface of the first section (114a, 116a) and the second section (114b, 116b) of the respective side wall (114, 116) are disposed within the inside volume of the manifold (100). The cover (120) includes cover walls (122) and (124) corresponding to the sidewalls (114) and (116) of the header (110) that rests on the respective opposite steps (118a) and (118b).
