Abstract

A bracket (300) is coupled to tank caps (122, 222) of header tanks (120, 220), and the bracket (300) is separably attached to a radiator (200) and a condenser (100) by means of hooks (311, 312) and holes (female screw section) (331) for fixing bolts (330). Thereby, it is unnecessary to provide fixing means in a side plate (130, 230) for fixing the bracket (300) thereto. Accordingly, it is possible to reduce the size and the weight of the side plate (139, 230), and easily attach and detach the radiator (200) and the condenser (100) from a vehicle.
