Abstract
A heat exchange structure is provided wherein a radiator (10) has a cooling core (24) extending between a top tank (22) and a bottom tank (20) with the bottom tank (20) being open (38) at one side. A cooler (66) for cooling a second fluid is mounted on a plate (46) which is sealingly secured over the open side (38) of the bottom tank (20) to position the cooler (66) in said bottom tank (20). A baffle (55) is mounted in the bottom tank (20) to divert fluid flowing through the cooling core (24) past the cooler (66). The plate (46) with the cooler (66) attached is removable from the bottom tank (20) without disturbing the connections between the cooling core (24) and the bottom tank (20). The heat exchange structure is assembled in a picture frame mounting (12) with attaching members (16) passing through bottom members (17) of the picture frame mounting (12) and threading into fasteners (18) in the bottom tank (20) to removably anchor the picture frame mounting (12) and the heat exchange structure together.
