Abstract
In heat transfer devices, which are constructed as plate oil coolers for motor vehicles, an adapter plate is provided in order to achieve a compact construction with a joint fastening and with feeding openings which are accessible only from one side. The adapter plate is configured such that at least two, but preferably four different plate coolers can be supplied with the same coolant flow. This results in a particularly simple and compact construction.
