of course, longer hthan any straight-passagecould be between the same cells, and therefore the Water is subjected to a greater cooling action in. this construction than would otherwise be the. case. Further, the fact .that there is `only .a single thickness of metal 8 between the cells. `11, enables the structure to be lighter thanis the case when a double thickness is employed, and the partitions 2 and 6 combined with the ears lO'aiford an exto Vforni the pocket 18,

IVhat I claim is l ll In a radiator, a unit comprising a pair of opposed zig-zag outer plates folded to provide partitions at. their rentrant portions, and an intermediate zig-zag division plate ggngaging said partitions to provide two rows of polygonal cells separated by a single thickness of metal. Y

2. Ina radiator, a unit comprising a pair of opposed zig-zag outer plates folded to .I Jrovide. partitions at-their-rentrant portions, and an intermediate division plate provided with pairs of projections eXtending alternately from its opposite faces for kengaging said partitions of the adjacent plates, thereby `forming two rows of polygonal cells separated by a single thickness of I metal.

of opposed zig-zag outer plates folded to provide partitions and provided with end pockets, a zig-zag division plate engaging said partitions toprovide two rows of polygonalfcells separated by a single ,thickness of metal, and a closing strip extending within said pockets for closing the end cells of said rows.` Y

In a radiator, the combination of a plurality of units each comprising a pair of opposed zig-zag outer plates folded to provide partitions at their rentrant portions,

an intermediate zig-zag division plate en-` gaging said partitions to provide two rows of polygonal cells separated by a single thickness of metal, and means for spacing said units apart with the projecting portions of the. zig-zag outer walls of the several units opposed to the rentrant portions of the zigzag Walls of the adjacent unit-s.

6. In a radiator the combination of a pair of radiator units each .composed of al pair ofzigfzag outer plates separated by a Zigzag division plate of a single thickness of metal to forma double Arow of cells; vand means to separate said units to form a zigzag water passage between them, substantially as described. 4

7. A radiator unit comprising a pairv of zig-zag outer plates and a zigzag intermediate plate of a single thickness contacting with said outer plates to form a double row of cells, substantially as described.

8. A radiator section made vup of a plurality of radiator units each unit comprising a pair of opposing zig-zag outer plates forming partitions constituting cell walls, and each provided with an intermediate zig-zag division plate of a single thickness engaging said partitions to provide a double row of polygonal cells separated by a .single thickness of metal, and the outer plates of adjacent units being spaced apart to form zig-zag water passages, substantially as described.

In testimony whereof I aliix my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
