Abstract
A radiator with positioning and buckling structure includes multiple metal plates, each of which has a main body, and a folded side portion is connected to one or two sides of the main body. The positioning and buckling structure is disposed on each of the metal plates. The positioning and buckling structure includes a snapping piece extending from the folded side portion. The snapping piece has a cleaved groove thereon and at two sides of the snapping piece there is provided two hooking portions. A buckling slot is disposed on the folded side portion of the metal plate corresponding to the snapping piece. The buckling slot is connected to a rear opening having a smaller width than the width of the snapping piece so that the metal plates can be stacked together.
