Abstract
A collector plate for a motor vehicle heat exchanger may include a first receiving zone for tubes of a first tube bundle of a heat exchanger. The collector plate may include a second receiving zone for tubes of a second tube bundle of a heat exchanger and a groove extending between the first and second receiving zones. The collector plate may be thinner in a region of the groove. Further, the collector plate may have a channel reducing the thickness of the collector plate from a first face of the collector plate and opposing a second face of the collector plate including the groove.
