A manifold for a heat exchanger for a motor vehicle that includes a tubular wall and at least one separating partition partitioning the manifold. The tubular wall may have at least one slot formed over a portion of the tubular wall's cross section and may allow for the insertion of said separating partition. The separating partition may include an internal part inserted into the tubular wall, and the internal part may have a periphery with a first portion and a second portion situated facing the tubular wall. The second portion may be adjacent to at least one deformation of the tubular wall, such that an internal cross section of the tubular wall corresponds to the perimeter of the partition along the second portion.

Manifold for a heat exchanger

A tube () has a container of phase change material M for a heat exchange bundle () of a heat exchanger () of an air conditioning system of a passenger compartment of a vehicle. The tube () includes a first plate () configured to form a first outer surface () of the tube (), a second plate () configured to be sealingly assembled with the first plate () and to form a second outer surface () opposite the first outer surface (), and an intermediate plate () configured to be sealingly assembled with the first and second plates (), between the latter, and to define on either sides thereof at least one channel () for the flow of a coolant F into the bundle () and at least one recess () for the phase change material M. The invention also relates to a heat exchange bundle and to a method for assembling a heat exchanger including the tube ().

The invention relates to a manifold () for a heat exchanger (), comprising a cover (), an intermediary plate (), and a collector plate (), said manifold () being intended to collect and distribute a fluid. According to the invention, the intermediary plate () defines a first fluid chamber () with the cover () and a second fluid chamber () with the collector plate (), said second chamber being independent of the first (). The invention also relates to a heat exchanger () comprising such a manifold () and to a method for producing such a manifold ().
