A CONDENSER FOR AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEMS FOR VEHICLES, WHICH HAS AN INTEGRATED ACCUMULATOR AND A COOLING SECTION.

摘要

A condenser for an automobile air conditioning system comprises: - A plurality of tubes (14a-14f) parallel to each other and connected to a package of fins, - A pair of distributors (16, 18) orthogonal to the tubes (14a-14f) each of which has an interior space (20, 22) divided into a plurality of chambers (26a-26d, 28a-28d) that communicate with the respective ends of the tubes, and- An accumulator ( 34) formed integrally with the capacitor and connected to one of said distributors (18). A part of the tubes (14a-14e) is arranged, with reference to the direction of circulation of the fluid, upstream of the accumulator (34) and forms a condensation section and a part of the tubes (14f) is disposed downstream of the accumulator (34) and form a subcooling section. The accumulator (34) extends substantially orthogonally to the distributors (16, 18). The distributor (18) connected to the accumulator (34) has an integral tube that puts the accumulator (48) (34) in communication with the subcooling section.
