APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING HEAT EXCHANGER - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18220527 titled 'APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING HEAT EXCHANGER
Simplified Explanation
The apparatus described in the patent application is for manufacturing a heat exchanger with a refrigerant tube. Here are the key points of the invention:
- Moving rod that can move along a first direction.
- Tube expansion body connected to the moving rod, which can move linearly along the first direction.
- The tube expansion body can be inserted into the tube base material of the refrigerant tube, causing the tube base material to expand outward.
- The tube expansion body has groove forming protrusions on its outer surface, which create grooves on the inner surface of the tube base material when inserted.
Potential Applications:
- Manufacturing heat exchangers for various industrial applications.
- Improving the efficiency of refrigerant tubes in cooling systems.
Problems Solved:
- Facilitating the expansion of tube base material for better performance.
- Enhancing the heat transfer capabilities of refrigerant tubes.
Benefits:
- Increased efficiency of heat exchangers.
- Improved cooling system performance.
- Simplified manufacturing process for heat exchangers.
Original Abstract Submitted
An apparatus for manufacturing a heat exchanger including a refrigerant tube, the apparatus including a moving rod movable along a first direction; and a tube expansion body connected to the moving rod to be linearly movable along the first direction, the tube expansion body insertable into a tube base material of the refrigerant tub such that the tube base material is expanded outward when the tube expansion body is inserted into the tube base material of the refrigerant tube, wherein the tube expansion body includes a plurality of groove forming protrusions formed on an outer surface of the tube expansion body so as to extend along a direction inclined with respect to the first direction, the groove forming protrusions form a plurality of grooves on an inner surface of the tube base material, when the tube expansion body is moved to be inserted into the tube base material.
