Fig. 4 is the vertical view that shows the structure of central layer 51.As shown in Figure 4, central layer 51 is formed with a plurality of patchholes 54 of the longitudinal end that is used for holding respectively the flat tube 10 that piles up.It can be oval-shaped flat opening basically that patchhole 54 limits.Patchhole 54 has a pair of straight portion and a pair of semi-circular portion that is parallel to each other.In the semi-circular portion each limits the semicircular in shape towards outer projection, and connects the end of straight portion.
Fig. 5 shows the structure of flat tube 10 when seeing on thickness direction.As shown in Figure 5, flat tube 10 has tube portion 17 and opens part 15 and 16.Tube portion 17 forms the cylinder form of the size that has substantial constant in a longitudinal direction.Each of opening in part 15 and 16 is respectively formed on two longitudinal ends of tube portion 17.Each of opening in part 15 and 16 all forms the open funnel shaped towards the edge in a longitudinal direction.After the longitudinal end with flat tube 10 is inserted in the patchhole 54 respectively, open part 15 and 16 by using flaring tool the whole circumference at two ends to be opened form. Open part 15 and 16 by formation, improved the hard solder quality between flat tube 10 and the central layer 51, this be because this can improve the contact condition between the opening of flat tube 10 and patchhole 54 and reduce described flat tube and described opening between the gap.
Fig. 6 is the cross-sectional view that shows by the structure of the tube portion 17 that represent, flat tube 10 of the line VI-VI among Fig. 5 on cross section.As shown in Figure 6, flat tube 10 limits flat and is essentially oval-shaped cross section.Flat tube 10 is made by the single metal plate 20 with hierarchy (for example, three layers).For example, metallic plate 20 is the composite plates with hard solder material layer, sandwich layer and sacrificial material layer, and all these layers are all made by aluminium alloy.Make hard solder material layer, sandwich layer and sacrificial material layer be provided with in proper order according to this by crooked metal sheet 20 on single bending direction and form flat tube 10 from radial outside.
Flat tube 10 has toward each other and the pair of plates part 11 that extends in parallel and 12 and pair of curved part 13 and 14.In the sweep 13 and 14 each all limits the semi-cylindrical shape of projection toward the outer side, and connects the end of plate part 11 and 12.Flat tube 10 has Breadth Maximum in the position near center line C1.
Fig. 7 is the cross-sectional view that shows the structure of the part of being represented by the line VII among Fig. 6.Among Fig. 7, the opening of patchhole 54 is illustrated by the broken lines.As shown in Figure 7, sweep 13 has the overlay region 100 on its at least a portion.Overlay region 100 is made of edge 21 and 22, and in the described edge one is arranged on the inboard as inner edge portion 21, and in the described edge another is arranged on the outside of inner edge portion 21 as outer edge 22.In overlay region 100, the inner surface 22b of outer edge 22 and the outer surface 21b of inner edge portion 21 link by hard solder.
Outer edge 22 extends beyond center line C1 along the outer surface 21b of inner edge portion 21.Outer edge 22 has end region 101a, and the thickness of described end region is towards end face 22a attenuation gradually.Thickness ratio between thickness t 1 in the zone except that end region 101 and the close thickness t 2 of end face 22a is set to and for example equals or about 50%.Yet,, be difficult to carry out the forming process of metallic plate 20 if the thickness ratio is set too for a short time.Therefore, consider the distortion of metallic plate 20, preferably with thickness than in the scope that is set between 60% and 70%.Nearly all zone of outer edge 21 all is bent to half the substantially the same radius that has with the thickness d 1 of flat tube 10.Here, thickness d 1 is restricted to the distance between the outer surface of the outer surface of plate part 11 and plate part 12.
22 inner surface 22b extends beyond center line C1 to inner edge portion 21 along the outer edge.Inner edge portion 21 has the end face 21a that is arranged near the position on the border between plate part 12 and the sweep 13.Inner edge portion 21 has small curve district 102, and described small curve district is connected with plate part 12 with continuous and smooth mode.Small curve district 102 is formed the line C1 but surpass center line C1 of extending to and ply in the centre.Small curve district 102 tilts with respect to plate part 11, and has less relatively curvature.In other words, small curve district 102 has relatively large radius.Inner edge portion 21 also has deep camber district 103, compares with small curve district 102, and described deep camber district is formed more close end face 21a.Deep camber district 103 is formed and extends beyond center line C1.Deep camber district 103 has the curvature greater than the curvature in small curve district 102.In other words, deep camber district 103 has the radius less than the radius in small curve district 102.
The radius in deep camber district 103 is substantially the same with the difference of the thickness t 1 of another edge portion 22 of a half-sum of the thickness d 1 of flat tube 10.The radius in small curve district 102 is configured to the radius greater than deep camber district 103.Small curve district 102 can comprise plate part, and the curvature of described plate part is 0 (zero), and the radius infinity of described plate part.
The end face 22a of outer edge 22 is arranged on the outer surface 21b in small curve district 102.The part of the close end face 22a of end face 22a and outer surface 21b limits right angle roughly.
Here, inner edge portion 21 and outer edge 22 do not have inwardly protruded zone, and this is because flat tube 10 is to form by making metallic plate 20 only be out of shape to make on single bending direction.Therefore, crooked small curve district 102 and deep camber district 103 under the situation of the bending direction that the plate part 11 that does not have change from flat tube 10 begins.
Fig. 8 is the cross-sectional view of the structure of opening part 15 that shows the flat tube 10 of the cross-section of being represented by the line VIII-VIII among Fig. 5.Fig. 9 is the cross-sectional view of the structure of the part represented by the IX among Fig. 8.As shown in Fig. 8 and Fig. 9, compare with the tube portion 17 shown in Fig. 7 with Fig. 6, open part 15 in expansion in the radial direction.Therefore, the shape of cross section that opens part 15 of flat tube 10 is along the warpage of the opening of patchhole 54.In opening part 15, except the gap portion 25 that forms in the position near the end face 22a of outer edge 22, plate part 11 and 12, sweep 13 and sweep 14 are configured to contact firmly with the openend of patchhole 54.
Compare with tube portion 17, overlay region 100 becomes narrower opening part 15 places, and this is because the end face 22a of the end face 21a of inner edge portion 21 and outer edge 22 forms relative to each other close by expansion flat tube 10.In addition, it is narrower that small curve district 102 also becomes, this because of inner edge portion 21, closely be connected part outer edge 22, except that end region 101 and be shaped according to the distortion of the opening shape of outer edge 22 and patchhole 54.
Next, the manufacture process of the radiator 1 in the present embodiment is described.At first, the composite plate that has three-decker by employing is made a plurality of band shape metallic plates 20, and described three-decker has hard solder material layer, sandwich layer and sacrificial material layer.In this process, an end of metallic plate 20 is processed to reduce thickness gradually towards end face.Next, in pipe formation process, make metallic plate 20 distortion forming flat tube 10 by the bending machining on single direction, described flat tube comprises pair of plates part 11 and 12 and pair of curved part 13 and 14.In this process, overlap formation overlay region 100 on the sweep 13 by inner edge portion 21 and the outer edge 22 that makes metallic plate 20.In this process, flat tube 10 also is not formed with and opens part 15 and 16.Therefore, flat tube 10 forms cylindrical, and described cylindrically have in a longitudinal direction along the shape of cross section of the tube portion 17 as shown in Fig. 6 and Fig. 7 of integral body.In other words, the inner edge portion 21 of flat tube 10 has in a longitudinal direction the small curve district 102 along integral body.The end face 22a of outer edge 22 is arranged on the outer surface 21b in small curve district 102.
Then, in the core body assembling process, the assembly of core body part 40 is by alternately piling up a plurality of flat tubes 10 and a plurality of corrugated fin 30 manufactured forming, and described a plurality of flat tubes and described a plurality of corrugated fin form in independent manufacture process.In the core body assembling process, be applied on flat tube 10 and the corrugated fin 30 from the outside with predetermined compressive load along the thickness direction of flattened tube 10.
Then, in the central layer assembling process, the assembly of core body sub-assembly 5 forms by central layer 51 and 61 being assemblied in make on the core body part 40.In the central layer assembling process, two longitudinal ends of flat tube 10 insert a plurality of patchholes 54 that are formed on central layer 51 and 61.As shown in Figure 7, form narrow gap between the edge of opening of the outer surface of flat tube 10 and patchhole 54, this is because flat tube 10 is formed and makes its diameter be slightly less than the diameter of patchhole 54.
Then, in the enlarging process, open part 15 and 16 by using flaring tool that two longitudinal end flare up funnel shapeds of the flat tube 10 that is inserted in the patchhole 54 are formed.As shown in Figure 9, open the opening shape distortion of the shape of cross section distortion of part 15 and 16 according to patchhole 54.Therefore, can improve contact condition between flat tube 10 and central layer 51 and 61.On the other hand, before carrying out the enlarging process, the shape of cross section of the tube portion 17 of flat tube 10 almost remains unchanged during processing.Flaring tool has the shape of cross section of the inner surface that is substantially similar to flat tube 10.In other words, the shape of cross section of flaring tool is roughly ellipse on the whole, and has and be formed on the corresponding recess of end difference at the end face 21a place of inner edge portion 21.
Next, in the hard solder process, the assembly by heating core body sub-assembly 5 also melts the hard solder material layer and makes the mutual hard solder of described parts.In this process, the contact condition between flat tube 10 and central layer 51 and 61 is enhanced owing to opening part 15 and 16, therefore can reduce to produce unsuitable hard solder part.
Then, in the assembling process of the water tank that resin is made, the water tank 52 and 62 that is formed from a resin is assemblied on the core body sub-assembly 5.By carrying out said process, radiator 1 manufactured the forming shown in Fig. 1.
According to present embodiment, the inner edge portion 21 of flat tube 10 has small curve part 102, and before the enlarging process, the end face 22a of outer edge 22 is arranged on the outer surface 21b in small curve district 102.Therefore, even on lap, occur moving for some reason, can prevent that also outline from changing.In addition, slide each other easily in inner edge portion 21 and outer edge 22.Therefore, inner edge portion 21 and outer edge 22 outwards are out of shape.In the enlarging process, the contact condition of improvement can be provided between the edge of opening of the outer periphery surface of flat tube 10 and patchhole 54, and minimum gaps.Therefore, can improve the hard solder quality between flat tube 10 and central layer 51 and 61, and reduce the seepage defect of radiator 1.
In the present embodiment, the thickness of the end region 101 of outer edge 22 reduces gradually towards end face 22a.Can reduce at 102 places, small curve district of inner edge portion 21 with respect to the angle of inclination of plate part 11.Therefore, inner edge portion 21 and outer edge 22 are arranged to easy deformation in the enlarging process.In addition, after the enlarging process, can make the gap portion 25 between the edge of opening that is formed on flat tube 10 and patchhole 54 littler, this is because the thickness at end face 22a place can be done thinlyyer.
In the present embodiment, outer edge 22 extends beyond center line C1, and in described centerline, flat tube 10 has Breadth Maximum.Therefore, in pipe formation process, outer edge 22 is in the snap fit state on inner edge portion 21.Therefore, in the hard solder process,, also can prevent the linking portion breakage between inner edge portion 21 and the outer edge 22 even remove residual stress on another sweep 14 by high temperature.
In the present embodiment, inner edge portion 21 extends beyond center line C1.When in the core body assembling process when the outside of thickness direction is applied to compressive load on the flat tube 10, this layout can make inner edge portion 21 surpass generation power on the direction of the part of center line C1 and the gap turn narrow between the outer edge 22.Therefore.Improved the contact condition between inner edge portion 21 and the outer edge 22, and can improve hard solder quality, and reduced the seepage defect of radiator 1 at sweep 13 places of flat tube 10.
In the present embodiment, each in central layer 51 and 61 the patchhole 54 all has semicircle edge of opening, described edge of opening be positioned at sweep 13 corresponding positions on.Therefore, outer edge 22 is out of shape smoothly along the edge of opening of patchhole 54, and improves the contact condition between the edge of opening of the outer surface of outer edge 22 and patchhole 54.
In the traditional arrangement of known flat tube, the depressed part that has with the inside formation of the corresponding degree of depth of thickness of plate is formed on the inner edge portion at place, overlay region, and is poor with the ladder of the end that reduces to be formed on the outer edge.According to the traditional arrangement of flat tube, make the pipe distortion by the enlarging process on the direction that broadens in the gap that makes ladder difference place.Therefore, the hard solder quality between flat tube and the central layer may reduce.In addition, in this flat tube, owing to be used for the forming process of the complexity of pipe, may have the problem that increases manufacturing cost, this is because need be used for the unexpected and accurate BENDING PROCESS of crooked metal sheet.
Otherwise, according to present embodiment, because form flat tube 10, so flat tube 10 does not have depressed part by crooked metal sheet on single direction 20.Therefore, can prevent the reduction of hard solder quality, this is because expansion very close to each other in the enlarging process.In addition, in the present embodiment, because do not need unexpected and accurate BENDING PROCESS, so can simplify the manufacture process of flat tube 10 and reduce manufacturing cost.
(second embodiment)
Figure 10 shows second embodiment of flat tube 10, and described flat tube has at the schematic structure that opens sweep 13 places on the part 15.Figure 10 shows and the corresponding cross-sectional view of Fig. 9.As shown in Figure 10, the end face 22a of outer edge 22 so that the outer ledge of the end face 22a mode outstanding in a circumferential direction with respect to the inside edge form.This layout will be defined as acute angle towards angle θ between the outer surface 21b of end face 22a and inner edge portion 21, that is, and and θ<90 degree.In the hard solder process, the filler weld of the hard solder material of fusion and scaling powder are formed between end face 22a and the outer surface 21b easily.Therefore, can improve the hard solder quality between flat tube 10 and central layer 51 and 61, and prevent the seepage defect of radiator 1.
