Heat exchanger comprising a heat exchange core and a housing

A heat exchanger (10) comprising a heat exchange core (12) and a housing (14), inside which said heat exchange core (12) is housed, said housing (14) comprises:

• a body having at least one open face, said body defining a frame around said open face, and in that said body is formed by at least two parts (30;
• 32;
• 34;
• 36), which are assembled together by brazing, at least two of said parts being provided adjacent to one another comprising means (40) for creating a support surface for a manifold (48), said parts (30;
• 32;
• 34;
• 36) of said body each comprising a plate provided, on at least a part of its periphery, with said means (40) for creating a support surface, and wherein said means (40) for creating a support surface comprises raised manifold assembly edges (40), wherein said means for creating the support surface includes raised edges (40) extending approximately perpendicularly with respect to the general plane of extension of said plate forming one of said parts (30;
• 32;
• 34;
• 36), wherein at least one of said parts (30;
• 34) includes a perimeter bordered by first (44) and second (40) raised edges, and wherein an entire periphery of at least one of said parts (30;
• 34) is surrounded by a rib formed from said first (44) and second (40) raised edges.
