Abstract
The invention relates to a heat exchanger, especially a stacked plate oil cooler (1) having a plate-type design. The heat exchanger is characterized in that two adjacent heat exchanger plates (2) define a space between them through which the heat exchange medium or a second medium that is to be cooled or heated flows. At one end of said heat exchanger, a base plate (3) lies substantially flat against the adjacent outmost heat exchanger plate (2) of the heat exchanger. Said base plate (3) is provided with a recess (5) whose contour follows that of the heat exchanger plate (2).
Claims9
A heat exchanger, especially a stacked plate oil cooler, having a plate-type design, with two adjacent heat exchanger plates defining an interspace through which a heat exchanger medium or a second medium to be cooled or to be heated flows, and at one end a base plate being provided which is in at least substantially flat contact with the adjacent outermost heat exchanger plate of the heat exchanger, wherein the base plate has a depression with a contour running in accordance with the heat exchanger plate.
