ABSTRACT:
The invention is a condenser for mounting in an automotive vehicle. The condenser has two headers which begin as flat sheets of metal that are formed into tubes with face-to-face flanges projecting somewhat radially and along the length of the header. At opposite sides of the flat sheets of metal two flanges are welded together in order to provide integral mounting brackets for the condenser. Fluid carrying tubes and separator plates are fitted into holes and slits, respectively, in the two metal plates in order to assemble the condenser. All parts are clad with a material having a low melting temperature so that all parts of the assembly may be welded together by placing it in an oven having a temperature which melts the cladding. The advantages of the invention are that the assembly is carried out on the outside of the header tube and no separate mounting brackets are necessarily required.
