Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a compact evaporator core structure, belonging to the technical field of evaporators. Background Art
[0002] As people's demands for car comfort increase, car air conditioning has become a must-have feature. At the same time, as vehicles incorporate more and more functions, the space occupied by air conditioning is gradually shrinking. This places higher demands on the overall spatial layout of air conditioning.
[0003] As the core component of the air conditioner, the air conditioner evaporator occupies a considerable part of the air conditioner's space. Most of the existing evaporator piping is welded from the side of the evaporator perpendicular to the evaporator body, which takes up more space. Utility Model Content

A plurality of flat tubes are arranged parallel between the manifold 1 and the manifold 2, and the interiors of the two manifolds are connected through the flat tubes. Adjacent flat tubes are connected by fins. The manifold 1 and the manifold 2 are respectively composed of two tube bodies 1 and two tube bodies 2. Each of the tube bodies 1 and 2 is provided with a partition, and both ends are installed with a blocking cover.
[0007] The piping includes piping 1 and piping 2, which are respectively the inlet and the outlet. The two pipe bodies 1 in the collecting pipe 1 are respectively provided with holes and grooves on one side of the section extending beyond the pipe body 2.

[0010] Preferably, the direction of the hole groove is the same as that of the flat tube.
[0011] Preferably, side plates are respectively provided between the two sides of the collecting pipe 1 and the collecting pipe 2 to surround the flat tubes.
[0012] Preferably, the connecting piece includes an interface body, one end of which is threadedly connected to a hole groove set on one side of the two tube bodies in the collecting pipe, and the other end is threadedly connected to a connecting sleeve set on the outside of the two tube bodies in the collecting pipe, and a sealing ring is installed between the connecting sleeve and the connection between the two tube bodies in the collecting pipe.
