Abstract:
A heat exchange module has a restriction protrusion that is provided to protrude between a blade of a cooling fan and a core portion of a heat exchanger and that restricts the blade from approaching the core portion more than a predetermined position. In a state where one side of an outline of a rectangular shaped fan shroud is disposed so as to face an installation surface, the restriction protrusion is provided in a position where the amount of water reaching the cooling fan through the heat exchanger becomes greater than the amount of water at position just below a rotation axis of the cooling fan in a case where at least a portion of the fan shroud is submerged in water.

Claim (Index 1):
A heat exchange module, comprising:\n a heat exchanger including a core portion, an outer shape of which is formed in a rectangular shape and inside of which a heat exchange medium is flowed; an axial flow type cooling fan including a plurality of blades provided in a rotation direction and arranged side by side with respect to the core portion, the cooking fan being configured to generate a cooling air to cool the heat exchange medium through outside of the core portion in a direction from a side of the core portion to a side of the cooling fan; a fan shroud, an outer shape of which is formed in a rectangular shape corresponding to the core portion and provided so as to face the core portion, and the fan shroud including a cylindrical shaped accommodating portion accommodating the cooling fan and a duct shaped air guiding portion extended from the accommodating portion to the core portion so as to pass the cooling air through the core portion; and a restrict protrusion provided to protrude between the blade of the cooling fan and the core portion in the accommodating portion or in the air guiding portion so as to restrict the blade from approaching the core portion more than a predetermined position, wherein in a state where one side of an outline of the rectangular shaped fan shroud is disposed so as to face an installation surface, the restriction protrusion is arranged in a position where the amount of water reaching the cooling fan through the heat exchanger becomes greater than the amount of water at a position just below a rotation axis of the cooling fan in a case where at least a portion of the fan shroud is submerged in water, and the restriction protrusion is provided entirely in a range between a position which is just below the rotation axis and a position which is the same height as the rotation center of the cooling fan by advancing in a rotation direction of the cooling fan.
