Abstract
The present disclosure provides a reinforcing clip for a heat exchanger. The reinforcing clip includes a first supporter, a second supporter, and a connecting member. Each of the first supporter and the second supporter includes a first support element and a second support element. The connecting member connects the first support element to the second element while separating the first support element away from the second support element in the vertical direction. The first support element is in contact with the first fin and the one side of the tube when the first support element is inserted into the space between the first fin and the tube. The second support element is in contact with the second fin and the other side of the tube when the second support element is inserted into the space between the second fin and the tube.
