The collector for the EGR cooler comprises an air outlet section, a collecting section and a connecting section, the air outlet section, the collecting section and the connecting section are sequentially connected, and the air outlet section, the collecting section and the connecting section are of an integrated structure. The air outlet section is cylindrical, and the connecting section is of a rectangular structure; an arc-shaped transition structure is arranged at the joint of the collecting section and the air outlet section, an arc-shaped transition structure is also arranged at the joint of the collecting section and the connecting section, and a temperature sensor interface and a
differential pressure sensor interface are arranged on the collecting section. The cooler has the technical effects that the cooler can be formed by
punching a thin plate, the wall thickness is small, the weight is light, the structure is simple,
batch production can be realized, the manufacturing cost is low, arc-shaped transition structures are arranged at the joints of the sections, an internal
airflow channel is smoother, the advancing resistance of
waste gas in the using process is small, the pressure loss of the cooler can be reduced, and the conveying of the
waste gas is facilitated; the collecting section is provided with a temperature sensor interface and a
differential pressure sensor interface, so that a temperature sensor and a
differential pressure sensor can be connected conveniently.
