ABSTRACT:
An aftercooler housing (26) is made of lightweight sheet material which is assembled with an aftercooler core (44) so that the core (44) reinforces the housing. Housing (26) can be constructed from a sheet of suitable metal, plastic, fiberglass which extends around the core to provide an open ended configuration. End walls (36, 38) enclose the housing, and wall (36) supports both an air inlet port (24) as well as coolant fluid inlet and outlet ports (62, 64). Top wall (28) of the housing is tapered downwardly from wall (36) to wall (38) to provide a tapered air inlet chamber for the aftercooler. Reinforcing sections (58) are provided on the sidewall of the housing adjacent the engine, and cross tie members (72, 78) pass from the remaining sidewall of the housing through the housing to the reinforcing sections to transfer some of the load on the housing to the reinforcing sections.
