| 20120070681 | ALUMINIUM BRAZING SHEET WITH A HIGH STRENGTH AND EXCELLENT CORROSION PERFORMANCE - An aluminium alloy brazing sheet including: a core material made of an aluminium alloy; and a cladding material clad on at least one side of the core material and made of an aluminium alloy having a potential lower than that of the core material. The cladding material is an outermost layer of the brazing sheet, wherein the cladding material is made of an aluminium alloy including 0.2 to 2.0 wt % of Mg, 0.5 to 1.5 wt % of Si, 1.0 to 2.0 wt %, preferably 1.4-1.8% of Mn, ≦0.7 wt % of Fe, ≦0.1 wt % of Cu, and ≦4 wt % of Zn, ≦0.3 wt % each of Zr, Ti, Ni, Hf, V, Cr, In, Sn and ≦0.5 wt % total of Zr, Ti, Ni, Hf, V, Cr, In, Sn, the remainder being Al and unavoidable impurities. | 03-22-2012 |
| 20110240277 | METHOD OF FORMING ALUMINIUM HEAT EXCHANGERS HEADER TANKS - The invention relates to a method for producing a heat exchanger header tank comprising the steps of providing a tube having a core made from a AA3XXX-aluminium alloy; optionally pre-heating the tube; inserting the tube into a forming tool having a forming cavity with the shape of the final header tank; plugging the ends of the tube; internally pressurising the tube by the use of a gas so as to make it conform to the shape of the tool cavity, thus obtaining the final header tank; removing the header tank from the tool; and cooling the header tank. This method allows an efficient production of header tanks of irregular shapes made of AA3XXX aluminium alloy. The invention also relates to a method for producing a heat exchanger, where the header tank is connected to a plurality of tubes and corrugated fins inserted between the tubes, followed by brazing of the fins to the tubes. | 10-06-2011 |
| 20100291400 | ALUMINIUM ALLOYS BRAZING SHEET FOR THIN TUBES - An aluminium alloy brazing sheet comprising: a core material made of an aluminium alloy consisting of ≦0.1 wt % Si, most preferably ≦0.06 wt % Si, ≦0.35 wt % Mg, from 1.0 to 2.0 wt %, preferably 1.4 to 1.8 wt % Mn, from 0.2 to 1.0, preferably 0.6 to 1.0 wt % Cu, ≦0.7 wt % Fe, ≦0.3 wt % each of Zr, Ti, Ni, Hf, V, Cr, In, Sn and ≦0.5 wt % total of Zr, Ti, Ni, Hf, V, Cr, In, Sn, the remainder being Al and unavoidable impurities;

| 20100206529 | A Brazing Piece, a Method of Making a Brazing Piece, and a Method of Brazing and Components Made From Said Brazing Piece - The invention relates to a self-fluxing brazing piece. The piece comprises a composite material comprising at least one inorganic material distributed in a metal or metal alloy matrix, the inorganic material forming a flux during brazing to promote the formation of a thermally induced metallic bond. The matrix may be an aluminium silicon brazing alloy and the inorganic material may be a potassium-fluoro-aluminate flux. The piece is made by spray forming. | 08-19-2010 |
