Abstract
A heating, ventilation and/or air-conditioning device has a heat exchanger consisting of a stack of orientation plates (1, 20) having a first and a second opposite longitudinal ends, certain orientation plates having separation elements intended to divert a flow of cooling liquid circulating in an axial direction of the heat exchanger so as to direct it to a channel region in which it travels from one said end to the other in a longitudinal direction of the orientation plates (1, 20). At least one separation element has at least one stiffening means (26′) integral at least with one region of said separation element (6, 26).
