Definitions
- the invention relates to a plate heat exchanger with the features from the preamble of claim 1.
- the plate heat exchanger described in the preamble is known from international patent application WO 98/59208.
- the planes of the inlet cross section and the outlet cross section are parallel to the plane of the cover plate in this known connecting piece. As a result, there is no angle between the two cross-sectional planes, or its number of angular degrees is zero.
- it is difficult to connect a connecting line made of metal to the connecting piece without losing the compactness of the arrangement.
- compact arrangements often have to be made because the installation space offered, for example, in the engine compartment of a motor vehicle is very limited.
- the "case-less" plate heat exchanger known from EP 893 667 B1 which also belongs to the type of plate heat exchanger mentioned here, has inlet or outlet connections arranged on the cover plate, which protrude perpendicularly to the body of the plate heat exchanger. In other words, there is a right angle between the plane of the inlet cross section and the plane of the outlet cross section of the connecting piece.
- the object of the invention is to expand the possible uses of housing-free plate heat exchangers.
- a plate heat exchanger according to the preamble of claim 1 according to the invention by its characterizing features. Because the inlet cross-section and the outlet cross-section of the connecting piece are arranged at an acute angle to each other and a line end opening into the inlet or outlet cross-section runs at least partially above the cover plate, the possible uses of such plate heat exchangers have been improved or expanded, because they can now also be used in very small installation spaces can be installed. If there are several such connecting pieces, a corresponding line end is assigned to each connecting piece. In this case, by definition, acute angles should include those angles whose number of degrees is greater than 0 and less than 90 °, the larger angle being able to be as large as is possible with the technical means of deep-drawing the plate.
- the invention is an angled connecting piece, which at first glance may seem very common.
- this connecting piece is made from an approximately flat plate, usually from the cover plate of the plate heat exchanger, by deep drawing, which poses some manufacturing problems.
- the expert would rather resort to elbow connectors and attach and solder them as an individual part on the cover plate, which is a disadvantage.
- the applicant agrees with this view as long as she is not aware of such an elbow connector drawn from a plate in connection with plate heat exchangers.
- the plate heat exchanger has additional features which are specified in the subclaims and which can be expected to have additional advantageous effects.
- the auxiliary bearing provided between the line end and the cover plate which is very advantageous for certain spatial installation constraints, leads to a very stable fastening of a line to the plate heat exchanger, which is particularly suitable for use in motor compartments of motor vehicles.
- the plate heat exchanger has a vent for the cooling circuit to which it is connected. This is advantageous if the installation location of the plate heat exchanger is provided at a geodetically located point of the cooling circuit. Such a vent on the plate heat exchanger seems to be easier and less expensive to implement (but equally effective) than, for example, a vent valve which is arranged in a pipeline. Further features and advantages of the invention result from the following description of an exemplary embodiment. Fig.
- FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of the plate heat exchanger and Fig. 2 shows a plan view of the same.

- a plurality of such connection pieces 12 with line ends 15 can also be present on a plate heat exchanger, although only a single one has been illustrated in the figures. In Fig.
- the inlet channel 5 intended in the case shown for the cooling liquid was drawn in section.
- the associated outlet channel 7 was shown in FIG. 2 only as a circle with dashed lines. The same applies to the inlet channel 6 and the outlet channel 8 , which are intended, for example, for the engine oil.
- the inlet and outlet channels 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 pass vertically through the stack of heat exchanger plates 1 and 2 , for which purpose corresponding openings are present in the heat exchanger plates 1 and 2 .
- Flow channels 3 and 4 are located between the heat exchanger plates 1 , 2 . As shown in FIG.
- the inlet channel 5 (also the outlet channel 6, not shown) is connected to the flow channels 4 , so that the cooling liquid can flow from the inlet channel 5 via the flow channels 4 to the outlet channel 6 .
- the flow channels 3 for the engine oil which are connected in the same way to the inlet channel 7 and the outlet channel 8 .
- the connecting piece 12 was formed from the cover plate 10 in several production stages by deep drawing, the connecting opening 30 being formed in the connecting piece 12 in the last step.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Plattenwärmetauscher mit den Merkmalen aus dem
Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.
Der im Oberbegriff beschriebene Plattenwärmetauscher ist aus der internationalen
Patentanmeldung WO 98/59208 bekannt. Die Ebenen des Eintrittsquerschnitts und
des Austrittsquerschnitts liegen bei diesem bekannten Anschlussstutzen parallel zur
Ebene der Deckplatte. Ein Winkel zwischen den beiden Querschnittsebenen ist
demzufolge nicht vorhanden, bzw. seine Winkelgradzahl beträgt null. Mit dem
bekannten Plattenwärmetauscher ist es schwierig, eine Anschlussleitung aus Metall
an dem Anschlussstutzen anzuschließen, ohne die Kompaktheit der Anordnung
einzubüßen. Kompakte Anordnungen müssen jedoch oftmals getroffen werden, weil
der beispielsweise im Motorraum eines Kraftfahrzeugs angebotene Einbauraum sehr
begrenzt ist.
Der aus dem EP 893 667 B1 bekannte "gehäuselose" Plattenwärmetauscher, der
ebenfalls dem hier angesprochenen Typ von Plattenwärmetauschern angehört, hat
an der Deckplatte angeordnete Eintritts - bzw. Austrittsstutzen, die senkrecht zum
Körper des Plattenwärmetauschers abstehen. Mit anderen Worten, zwischen der
Ebene des Eintrittsquerschnitt und der Ebene des Austrittsquerschnitt des
Anschlussstutzens liegt ein rechter Winkel.
Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht in der Erweiterung der Einsatzmöglichkeiten von
gehäuselosen Plattenwärmetauschern.The invention relates to a plate heat exchanger with the features from the preamble of
The plate heat exchanger described in the preamble is known from international patent application WO 98/59208. The planes of the inlet cross section and the outlet cross section are parallel to the plane of the cover plate in this known connecting piece. As a result, there is no angle between the two cross-sectional planes, or its number of angular degrees is zero. With the known plate heat exchanger, it is difficult to connect a connecting line made of metal to the connecting piece without losing the compactness of the arrangement. However, compact arrangements often have to be made because the installation space offered, for example, in the engine compartment of a motor vehicle is very limited.
The "case-less" plate heat exchanger known from EP 893 667 B1, which also belongs to the type of plate heat exchanger mentioned here, has inlet or outlet connections arranged on the cover plate, which protrude perpendicularly to the body of the plate heat exchanger. In other words, there is a right angle between the plane of the inlet cross section and the plane of the outlet cross section of the connecting piece.
The object of the invention is to expand the possible uses of housing-free plate heat exchangers.
Diese Aufgabe wird bei einem dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 entsprechenden
Plattenwärmetauscher erfindungsgemäß durch seine kennzeichnenden Merkmale
gelöst.
Weil der Eintrittsquerschnitt und der Austrittsquerschnitt des Anschlussstutzens in
einem spitzen Winkel zueinander angeordnet sind und ein in dem Eintritts - oder
Austrittsquerschnitt mündendes Leitungsende zumindest teilweise oberhalb zur
Deckplatte verläuft, sind die Einsatzmöglichkeiten solcher Plattenwärmetauscher
verbessert bzw. erweitert worden, denn sie können jetzt auch in sehr kleinen
Einbauräumen eingebaut werden. Bei mehreren derartigen Anschlussstutzen ist
jedem Anschlussstutzen ein entsprechendes Leitungsende zugeordnet. Spitze
Winkel sollen per Definition in diesem Falle solche Winkel umfassen, deren Gradzahl
größer als 0 und kleiner als 90° ist, wobei der größere Winkel so groß sein kann, wie
es mit fertigungstechnischen Mitteln des Tiefziehens der Platte machbar ist. Bei der
Erfindung handelt es sich - mit anderen Worten - um einen abgewinkelten
Anschlussstutzen, der auf den ersten Blick als sehr gewöhnlich erscheinen mag. Es
sollte jedoch (bei näherer Betrachtung) bedacht werden, dass dieser
Anschlussstutzen aus einer etwa ebenen Platte, in aller Regel aus der Deckplatte
des Plattenwärmetauschers, mittels Tiefziehen hergestellt ist, was einige
fertigungstechnische Probleme aufwirft. Nach Meinung des Erfinders würde der
Fachmann in solchen Fällen eher zu Winkelstutzen greifen und diese als Einzelteil
auf der Deckplatte ansetzen und verlöten, was von Nachteil sei. Dieser Auffassung
schließt sich die Anmelderin an, solange ihr kein derartiger aus einer Platte
gezogener Winkelstutzen im Zusammenhang mit Plattenwärmetauschern bekannt
ist.
Ferner weist der Plattenwärmetauscher zusätzliche Merkmale auf, die in den
Unteransprüchen angegeben sind und die zusätzliche vorteilhafte Wirkungen
erwarten lassen. Das vorgesehene und für bestimmte räumliche Einbauzwänge sehr
vorteilhafte Hilfslager zwischen dem Leitungsende und der Deckplatte führt zu einer
sehr stabilen und somit für den Einsatz in Motorräumen von Kraftfahrzeugen
besonders geeigneten Befestigung einer Leitung am Plattenwärmetauscher.
Insbesondere sei darauf hingewiesen, dass der Plattenwärmetauscher über eine
Entlüftung für den Kühlkreislauf verfügt, an dem er angeschlossen ist. Dies ist dann
vorteilhaft, wenn der Einbauort des Plattenwärmetauschers an einem geodätisch
obenliegenden Punkt des Kühlkreislaufs vorgesehen ist. Eine solche Entlüftung am
Plattenwärmetauscher scheint einfacher und kostengünstiger realisierbar (aber in
gleicher Weise wirksam) zu sein, als beispielsweise ein Entlüftungsventil, das in
einem Leitungsstrang angeordnet ist.
Weitere Merkmale und Vorteile der Erfindung ergeben sich aus der nachfolgenden
Beschreibung eines Ausführungsbeispiels.
Die Fig. 1 zeigt eine perspektivische Ansicht des Plattenwärmetauscher und die Fig.
2 zeigt eine Draufsicht auf denselben. Die Fig. 3 zeigt den in der Fig. 2
eingezeichneten Schnitt A-A und die Fig. 4 zeigt den Schnitt B-B aus der Fig. 2. Bei
dem gezeigten Plattenwärmetauscher handelt es sich um einen Ölkühler, der in
einem Kraftfahrzeug zur Kühlung von Motorenöl mittels der im Kühlkreislauf
zirkulierenden Kühlflüssigkeit des Kraftfahrzeugmotors verwendet wird. (nicht
gezeigt) This object is achieved in a plate heat exchanger according to the preamble of
Because the inlet cross-section and the outlet cross-section of the connecting piece are arranged at an acute angle to each other and a line end opening into the inlet or outlet cross-section runs at least partially above the cover plate, the possible uses of such plate heat exchangers have been improved or expanded, because they can now also be used in very small installation spaces can be installed. If there are several such connecting pieces, a corresponding line end is assigned to each connecting piece. In this case, by definition, acute angles should include those angles whose number of degrees is greater than 0 and less than 90 °, the larger angle being able to be as large as is possible with the technical means of deep-drawing the plate. In other words, the invention is an angled connecting piece, which at first glance may seem very common. However, it should be considered (on closer inspection) that this connecting piece is made from an approximately flat plate, usually from the cover plate of the plate heat exchanger, by deep drawing, which poses some manufacturing problems. In the inventor's opinion, in such cases the expert would rather resort to elbow connectors and attach and solder them as an individual part on the cover plate, which is a disadvantage. The applicant agrees with this view as long as she is not aware of such an elbow connector drawn from a plate in connection with plate heat exchangers.
Furthermore, the plate heat exchanger has additional features which are specified in the subclaims and which can be expected to have additional advantageous effects. The auxiliary bearing provided between the line end and the cover plate, which is very advantageous for certain spatial installation constraints, leads to a very stable fastening of a line to the plate heat exchanger, which is particularly suitable for use in motor compartments of motor vehicles. In particular, it should be noted that the plate heat exchanger has a vent for the cooling circuit to which it is connected. This is advantageous if the installation location of the plate heat exchanger is provided at a geodetically located point of the cooling circuit. Such a vent on the plate heat exchanger seems to be easier and less expensive to implement (but equally effective) than, for example, a vent valve which is arranged in a pipeline.
Further features and advantages of the invention result from the following description of an exemplary embodiment.
Fig. 1 shows a perspective view of the plate heat exchanger and Fig. 2 shows a plan view of the same. FIG. 3 shows the section AA drawn in FIG. 2 and FIG. 4 shows the section BB from FIG. 2. The plate heat exchanger shown is an oil cooler which is used in a motor vehicle to cool motor oil by means of the Coolant of the motor vehicle engine circulating in the cooling circuit is used. (Not shown)
Aus der Fig. 3 geht das Wesentliche dieses Vorschlages am deutlichsten hervor. Da
in dem gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel der aus der Deckplatte 10 geformte
Anschlussstutzen 12 und das Leitungsende 15 an einem Eintrittskanal 5
angeschlossen ist, ist die mit dem Bezugszeichen 13 versehene Ebene, eine Ebene
des Eintrittsquerschnitts und mit dem Bezugszeichen 14 eine Ebene des
Austrittsquerschnitts, die auf der Ebene der Deckplatte 10 liegt, bzw. parallel dazu.
Es ist klar, dass in solchen Fällen, in denen der Anschlussstutzen 12 und das
Leitungsende 15 an einem Austrittskanal 7, 8 angeschlossen sind, der
Eintrittsquerschnitt 13 zum Austrittsquerschnitt 14 wird, oder umgekehrt. Es ist ferner
klar, dass auch mehrere solcher Anschlussstutzen 12 mit Leitungsenden 15 an
einem Plattenwärmetauscher vorhanden sein können, obwohl nur ein einziger in den
Figuren abgebildet wurde. In der Fig. 3 wurde der in dem gezeigten Fall für die
Kühlflüssigkeit gedachte Eintrittskanal 5 im Schnitt gezeichnet. Der zugehörige
Austrittskanal 7 wurde in der Fig. 2 lediglich als Kreis mit gestrichelter Linienführung
abgebildet. Gleiches trifft auf den Eintrittskanal 6 und den Austrittskanal 8 zu, die
beispielsweise für das Motorenöl gedacht sind. Die Eintritts - und Austrittskanäle 5, 6,
7, 8 gehen vertikal durch den Stapel aus Wärmetauscherplatten 1 und 2 hindurch,
wozu in den Wärmetauscherplatten 1 und 2 entsprechende Öffnungen vorhanden
sind. Zwischen den Wärmetauscherplatten 1, 2 befinden sich Strömungskanäle 3
und 4. Wie die Fig. 3 zeigt, ist der Eintrittskanal 5 (auch der nicht gezeigte
Austrittskanal 6) mit den Strömungskanälen 4 verbunden, so dass die Kühlflüssigkeit
vom Eintrittskanal 5 über die Strömungskanäle 4 zum Austrittskanal 6 strömen kann.
Dazwischen befinden sich die Strömungskanäle 3 für das Motorenöl, die in gleicher
Weise mit dem Eintrittskanal 7 und dem Austrittskanal 8 verbunden sind. Der
Anschlussstutzen 12 wurde mittels Tiefziehen in mehreren Fertigungsstufen aus der
Deckplatte 10 geformt, wobei die Anschlussöffnung 30 im Anschlussstutzen 12 in der
letzten Stufe ausgebildet wurde. Der Winkel 20 zwischen der Ebene des
Eintrittsquerschnitts 13 und der Ebene des Austrittsquerschnitts 14 beträgt etwa 50°.
In die erwähnte Anschlussöffnung 30 des Anschlussstutzens 12 wurde das
Leitungsende 15 im gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel eingesetzt. In nicht gezeigten
Ausführungen umgreift das Leitungsende 15 die Anschlussöffnung 30 von außen, die
dann einen Flanschansatz aufweist. Das Leitungsende 15 besitzt einen Wulst, der
einen Anschlag darstellt, um das Einsetzen und spätere Dichtlöten zu erleichtern.
Das Leitungsende 15 weist ebenfalls eine geringe Biegung auf, so dass sich
dasselbe in unmittelbarer Nähe oberhalb der Deckplatte 10 erstrecken kann,
wodurch der Plattenwärmetauscher insgesamt sehr kompakt und raumsparend
ausgebildet ist, insbesondere eine geringe Bauhöhe besitzt, wie am linken Rand der
Fig. 3 angezeigt wurde. Auf die Biegung des Leitungsendes 15 kann verzichtet
werden, wenn sich der Winkel 20 zwischen der Eintrittsebene 13 und der
Austrittsebene 14 einem rechten Winkel nähert. Jedoch scheint die Ausbildung eines
90°- Winkels fertigungstechnisch etwas aufwendiger zu sein, so dass die gezeigte
Ausbildung als bevorzugt bezeichnet werden kann. In einem solchen Anwendungsfall
wie dem gezeigten, in dem sich das Leitungsende 15 mit einem minimalen Abstand
16 quer über die Deckplatte 10 erstreckt, ist es, insbesondere für
Plattenwärmetauscher, die in Kraftfahrzeugen zum Einsatz kommen, vorteilhaft,
wenn das Leitungsende 15 mittels eines Hilfslagers 40 (in Fig. 3 nicht gezeichnet)
auf der Deckplatte 10 abgestützt wird, weil damit den im Betrieb auftretenden
Vibrationen besser entsprochen werden kann.
Es gibt jedoch andere Ausführungen, bei denen das Leitungsende 15 zwar auch
zumindest teilweise oberhalb der Deckplatte 10 angeordnet ist, aber kurz nach dem
Anschlussstutzen 12 vom Plattenwärmetauscher wegführt, so dass dort kein
Hilfslager 40 dieser Art vorzusehen ist. Zumindest teilweise unterhalb der
Grundplatte 9 ist das Leitungsende 15 in solchen nicht gezeigten Ausführungen
angeordnet, in denen sich ein Anschlussstutzen 12 an der Grundplatte 9 befindet.
Gemäß Fig. 1 besitzt das Hilfslager 40 einen Kopf 41, auf dem das Leitungsende 15
befestigt ist und einen Fuß 42, mit dem es auf der Deckplatte 10 angelötet wird. Um
das Positionieren des Hilfslagers 40 auf der Deckplatte 10 zu erleichtern, befindet
sich am Fuß 42 eine geringfügige Vertiefung oder dergleichen, die mit einer
entsprechenden Erhebung (Noppe) auf der Deckplatte 10 zusammenwirkt. (nicht
gezeigt) Das Hilfslager 40 kann auch mittels Tiefziehen aus der Deckplatte 10
geformt werden und stellt dann also kein Einzelteil dar. (nicht gezeigt) Wie die Fig. 3
jedoch zeigt, befindet sich der Anschlussstutzen 12 unmittelbar über dem
Eintrittskanal 5 bzw. auf dessen Vertikalen 25. Es gibt weitere nicht gezeigte
Ausführungen, in denen der Anschlussstutzen 12 zur Vertikalen 25 versetzt
angeordnet ist, aber selbstverständlich in hydraulischer Verbindung mit dem
Eintrittskanal 5 bleibt.
Auf der Deckplatte 10 befindet sich eine Entlüftung 50 für den
Kühlflüssigkeitskreislauf. Die Entlüftung 50 weist eine Dichtschraube 51 auf. Nach
dem Lösen der Dichtschraube 51 können in der Kühlflüssigkeit enthaltene
Gaseinschlüsse entweichen, da die Entlüftung 50 über eine Bohrung oder
dergleichen mit dem oberen Strömungskanal 4 für die Kühlflüssigkeit verbunden ist.
Der Plattenwärmetauscher ist auf einer Befestigungsplatte 45 montiert bzw.
aufgelötet worden, um ihn mittels nicht gezeigter Schrauben oder ähnlicher
Befestigungsmittel, die durch Löcher 46 gesteckt werden, beispielsweise an einem
Motorengehäuse zu befestigen.3 shows the essence of this proposal most clearly. Since, in the exemplary embodiment shown, the connecting
