This application claims priority to U.S. Patent Appln. No. 17/204,556 filed March 17, 2021, which is hereby incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE

1. Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates generally to manufacture and inspection of a component with one or more internal features.

2. Background Information

[0002] A liquid flowthrough cooling plate includes one or more internal passages.

During manufacture, a preform of the cooling plate may be formed using one or more known manufacturing techniques. This cooling plate preform may include one or more defects on an exterior of the preform. To remove these defects, one or more surfaces of the cooling plate preform may be machined flat. Depending upon the type and magnitude of the defect, however, such machining may overly thin or completely remove sidewall material of one or more of the internal passages thereby rendering the cooling plate unusable. To identify over-machining, an inspection process such as computed tomography (CT) scanning may be performed on the cooling plate in order to locate the internal passages within the cooling plate and/or determine the sidewall thickness of the cooling plate. Such an inspection process, however, may be costly and/or time consuming.

[0003] There is a need in the art for improved methods for manufacturing and inspecting components with one or more internal features.

The portion of the aperture extends into the machined component from the machined outer surface to the aperture end surface. A distance from the machined outer surface to the aperture end surface is measured. Whether a feature of the machined component meets a standard is determined based on the distance from the machined outer surface to the aperture end surface.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0047] The present disclosure includes methods for manufacturing a component with one or more internal features. Each of these internal features is disposed partially or completely within an interior of the manufactured component. The internal features therefore may not be visible and/or easily accessible for inspection from an exterior of the manufactured component. The manufacturing methods of the present disclosure therefore may include techniques / processes for inspecting and/or acquiring information associated with the internal features from an exterior of the manufactured component without, for example, requiring costly and/or time consuming imaging processes; e.g., x-ray scanning, computed tomography (CT) scanning, etc. [0048] FIG. 1 is a flow diagram of a method 1000 for manufacturing a component with at least one internal feature. For ease of description, the manufactured component is described below as a heat exchanger and the internal feature is described below as an internal passage. Examples of the heat exchanger include, but are not limited to, a heat exchanger plate (e.g., a liquid flowthrough cold plate), a heat spreader, a radiator and a section / module of a modular heat exchanger. The heat exchanger may be configured as a liquid-to-liquid heat exchanger, a gas-to-liquid heat exchanger and/or a gas-to-gas heat exchanger. The present disclosure, however, is not limited to manufacturing such exemplary heat exchangers nor to heat exchanger applications. For example, in other embodiments, the manufacturing method 1000 may be performed to manufacture a fluid vessel (e.g., a tank) or a fluid conduit. The present disclosure is also not limited to embodiments where the internal feature is an internal passage. For example, in other embodiments, the internal feature may alternatively be or also include an internal cavity, an internal core, a portion of the manufactured component with a different porosity and/or density, or any other type of volume and/or element disposed at least partially or completely within the manufactured component. Such manufactured components may be utilized for various applications including, but not limited to, mobile devices (e.g., land vehicles, watercraft, aircraft, spacecraft, projectiles, missiles, etc.), sensor systems, communication systems and control systems.

[0049] In step 1002, a preform 20 of the manufactured component is provided. A schematic perspective illustration of the preform component 20 is illustrated in FIG. 2. This preform component 20 has an exterior with opposing longitudinal sides 22 and 24, opposing lateral sides 26 and 28 and opposing vertical sides 30 and 32. The preform component 20 extends longitudinally (e.g., along an x-axis) between and to the longitudinal sides 22 and 24.

The preform component 20 extends laterally (e.g., along a y-axis) between and to the lateral sides 26 and 28. The preform component 20 extends vertically (e.g., along a z-axis) between and to the vertical sides 30 and 32.

[0050] The preform component 20 of FIG. 2 includes the at least one internal passage 34

(the internal feature), ends of which passage 34 are visible in FIG. 2. The preform component 20 of FIG. 2 also includes at least one inspection aperture 36; e.g., a recess, a groove, a channel, a notch, a dimple, etc.

[0051] Referring to FIG. 3, the internal passage 34 may have an inlet 38 and an outlet 40.

The internal passage 34 of FIG. 3 extends along a centerline 42 of the internal passage 34, within the preform component 20, between and to the inlet 38 and the outlet 40. The internal passage 34 and its centerline 42 may include one or more straight sections 44-46. The internal passage 34 and its centerline 42 may also or alternatively include one or more non-straight sections 48 and 50; e.g., curved sections, arcuate sections, winding sections, serpentine sections, etc. The internal passage 34 and its centerline 42 may thereby follow a tortuous trajectory within the preform component 20; see also FIG. 12. The present disclosure, however, is not limited to such an exemplary internal passage configuration.

[0052] Referring to FIG. 4, the inspection aperture 36 may be configured as a blind aperture. The inspection aperture 36 of FIG. 4, for example, extends partially into the preform component 20 from a preform outer surface 52 of the preform component 20 to an aperture end surface 54 of the preform component 20. The preform outer surface 52 of FIG. 4 is located at (e.g., on, adjacent or proximate) the second vertical side 32 of the preform component 20. The aperture end surface 54 is located vertically between the vertical sides 30 and 32 of the preform component 20. The aperture end surface 54 is disposed a vertical distance 56 (e.g., along the z- axis) from the preform outer surface 52, which vertical distance 56 defines a vertical depth of the inspection aperture 36 within the preform component 20.

[0053] The preform component 20 may be formed by additive manufacturing using an additive manufacturing device. The term “additive manufacturing” may describe a process where a component or components are formed by accumulating and/or fusing material together, typically in a layer-on-layer manner. Layers of powder material, for example, may be disposed and thereafter solidified sequentially onto one another to form the component(s). The term “solidify” is used herein to describe a process whereby material is sintered and/or otherwise melted thereby causing discrete particles or droplets of the sintered and/or melted material to fuse together. Examples of the additive manufacturing process include a laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) process and an electron beam powder bed fusion (EB-PBF) process. Examples of the additive manufacturing device include a laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) device and an electron beam powder bed fusion (EB-PBF) device. Of course, various other additive manufacturing processes and devices are known in the art, and the present disclosure is not limited to any particular ones thereof. Furthermore, the present disclosure is not limited to additive manufacturing formation processes. For example, the preform component 20 may also or alternatively be formed by casting and/or machining.

[0054] The preform component 20 may include one or more defects. The term “defect” may describe an artifact from the preform component formation process which may be accounted for (e.g., removed and/or otherwise altered) in subsequent step(s) of the manufacturing method 1000. For example, where the preform component 20 is additively manufactured, one or more or all of the layers of material forming the preform component 20 may be individually or collectively subjected to uneven temperature differentials thereacross.

For example, referring to FIG. 5, end portions 58 of a newly solidified layer 60, for example, may cool quicker than an intermediate / middle portion(s) 62 of that newly solidified layer 60. This uneven cooling may cause the newly formed layer 60 to warp; e.g., cup, “potato chip”, etc. The preform outer surface 52 of FIGS. 2 and 4 may therefore have a non-planar (e.g., non-flat) geometry. The preform outer surface 52, for example, may be a curved (e.g., cupped) or wavy outer surface. Of course, the preform component 20 may also or alternatively include various other types of defects.

[0055] In step 1004, the preform component 20 is machined to provide a machined component 64 (see FIG. 6). At least a portion (or an entirety) of the preform outer surface 52 (see FIG. 2), for example, may be planed, milled and/or otherwise machined to provide the machined component 64 with a machined outer surface 52’ at the second vertical side 32’ (see FIG. 6). This machined outer surface 52’ may have a planar geometry. The machined outer surface 52’ of FIG. 6, for example, is a flat outer surface. The machining step 1004 may thereby remove the outer surface curvature and/or waviness from the preform component 20; e.g., remove the formation process artifact(s). Of course, one or more additional portions of the preform component 20 (e.g., one or more of the surfaces at the sides 22, 24, 26, 28 and/or 30) may also be at least partially or completely machined to provide the machined component 64. [0056] The machined component 64 of FIG. 6 may include at least a portion (or an entirety) of the inspection aperture 36 from the preform component 20. FIG. 7A illustrates an embodiment where the machined component 64 includes an entirety of the inspection aperture 36. FIGS. 7B and 7C illustrate embodiments where the machined component 64 includes a portion of the inspection aperture 36.

[0057] In step 1006, an exterior of the machined component 64 is inspected. Referring to

FIG. 8, this inspection is performed to determine at least one (e.g., external) characteristic of the machined component 64 that is associated with / related to the inspection aperture 36.

[0058] The inspection aperture characteristic may be whether an entirety or at least a portion of the inspection aperture 36 is still present in the machined component 64. The presence (or lack of presence) of the inspection aperture 36 in the machined component 64 may be determined via, for example, a visual inspection of the exterior of the machined component 64 and, more particularly, its machined outer surface 52’. This visual inspection may be performed manually by a human inspector (e.g., via human eye). The visual inspection may also or alternatively be performed using an inspection system; e.g., an automated camera inspection system. The manufacturing method 1000, however, is not limited to the foregoing exemplary visual inspection techniques.

[0059] The inspection aperture characteristic may also or alternatively be (or indicative of) a dimension 56’ (e.g., a vertical depth) of the inspection aperture 36 (e.g., the remaining inspection aperture portion) in the machined component 64. The dimension 56’ of the remaining inspection aperture 36 in the machined component 64 may be determined using a manual inspection device; e.g., a set of measurement calipers. The dimension 56’ of the inspection aperture 36 may also or alternatively be determined using an inspection system; e.g., an automated contact or non-contact inspection system such as, but not limited to, a coordinate measurement machine (CCM) or a (e.g., white or blue) light measurement system. The manufacturing method 1000, however, is not limited to the foregoing exemplary dimensional inspection techniques.

[0060] In step 1008, at least one feature of the machined component 64 is determined as satisfying or not satisfying a (e.g., design and/or manufacturing) standard. The determination of whether or not the feature satisfies the standard may be made based on the inspection aperture characteristic of the machined component 64.

[0061] The machined component feature may be a dimension or another internal characteristic of the machined component 64. For example, the feature may be a thickness 68 of a sidewall 70 of the machined component 64, or alternatively indicative of or otherwise related to the sidewall thickness 68. The sidewall 70 of FIG. 8 extends vertically between and at least partially forms the machined outer surface 52’ and a peripheral boundary 72 of the internal passage 34. The sidewall thickness 68 may be measured as a (e.g., shortest and/or perpendicular) vertical distance from the machined outer surface 52’ to the internal passage 34 and its peripheral boundary 72. The manufacturing method 1000, however, is not limited to the foregoing exemplary machined component features.

[0062] The machined component feature is related to the inspection aperture 36. For example, the inspection aperture 36 may be spatially located at a known location proximate the internal passage 34 (the internal feature). The inspection aperture 36 may also be configured (e.g., sized, arranged, etc.) to provide information regarding the internal passage 34 (the internal feature). For example, referring to FIG. 9A, the aperture end surface 54 may be vertically aligned (e.g., along the z-axis) with the peripheral boundary 72 (e.g., a vertical side) of the internal passage 34 (the internal feature). Alternatively, referring to FIG. 9B, the aperture end surface 54 may be vertically displaced (along the z-axis) from the peripheral boundary 72 (e.g., the side) of the internal passage 34 (the internal feature) a known vertical distance 74. The aperture end surface 54 of FIG. 9B, for example, is positioned vertically (along the z-axis) between the peripheral boundary 72 (e.g., the side) of the internal passage 34 and the machined outer surface 52’. By positioning the aperture end surface 54 (e.g., see FIG. 9A or 9B) at a known (e.g., vertical) location relative to the internal passage 34 (the internal feature) and its peripheral boundary 72 (e.g., the side), the location of the peripheral boundary 72 (e.g., the side) can be determined by knowing the depth of the inspection aperture 36 in the machined component 64. Thus, information regarding the internal passage 34 (the internal feature) can be determined by inspecting the exterior of the machined component 64 without using, for example, costly and/or time consuming imaging processes; e.g., x-ray scanning, computed tomography (CT) scanning, etc.

[0063] Where the machined component 64 includes the entirety (or at least a portion) of the inspection aperture 36, a determination may be made that sufficient material is still present between the internal passage 34 (the internal feature) and the machined outer surface 52’. For example, since the entirety (or at least a portion) of the inspection aperture 36 is present, it can be determined the sidewall thickness 68 is within specification of the standard. Thus, the machined component 64 may be identified / classified as meeting the standard; e.g., complying with / being within design tolerances. However, where the machined component 64 only includes a portion of the inspection aperture 36 or none of the inspection aperture 36, a determination may be made that there is insufficient material present between the internal passage 34 (the internal feature) and the machined outer surface 52’. For example, since only a portion or none of the inspection aperture 36 is present, it can be determined the sidewall thickness 68 is outside specification of the standard. Thus, the machined component 64 may be identified / classified as not meeting the standard.

[0064] Where the depth of the inspection aperture 36 in the machined component 64 is measured as being equal to or greater than a (e.g., predetermined, design) value, a determination may be made that sufficient material is still present between the internal passage 34 (the internal feature) and the machined outer surface 52’. Thus, the machined component 64 may be identified / classified as meeting the standard. However, where the depth of the inspection aperture 36 in the machined component 64 is measured as being less than the (e.g., predetermined, design) value, a determination may be made that there is not sufficient material present between the internal passage 34 (the internal feature) and the machined outer surface 52’. Thus, the machined component 64 may be identified / classified as not meeting the standard. [0065] In step 1010, the machined component 64 is marked and/or otherwise identified as satisfying or not satisfying the standard. Where the machined component 64 meets the standard, that machined component 64 is identified for further downstream processing; e.g., further machining, finishing and/or assembly. Where the machined component 64 does not meet the standard, that machined component 64 is identified for other processing; e.g., reworking and/or discarding.

[0066] The machined component 64 may be identified by applying a marking (e.g., writing, a label, etc.) onto the machined component 64. The machined component 64 may also or alternatively be identified by placing the machined component 64 into a respective bin, placing the machined component 64 on a respective shelf, etc. The manufacturing method 1000, however, is not limited to the foregoing exemplary identification (e.g., marking) techniques. [0067] Referring to FIG. 10 A, one or more or all of the inspection apertures 36 may have a circular cross-sectional geometry when viewed, for example, perpendicular to a centerline 76 of the respective inspection aperture 36. Referring to FIGS. 10B and IOC, one or more or all of the inspection apertures 36 may also or alternatively have a non-circular cross-sectional geometry when viewed, for example, perpendicular to the respective inspection aperture centerline 76. For example, the inspection aperture cross-sectional geometry may be substantially or exactly oval, elliptical or polygonal (e.g., square, rectangular, etc.) shaped. The present disclosure, however, is not limited to the foregoing exemplary inspection aperture configurations.

[0068] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 4, the inspection aperture 36 may be configured with a uniform depth; e.g., the vertical distance 56. More particularly, the inspection aperture 36 may extend vertically into the preform component 20 to the single aperture end surface 54. [0069] In some embodiments, referring to FIGS. 11 and 12, one or more or all of the inspection apertures 36 may each be configured with a varying depth; e.g., a stepped depth. The inspection aperture 36 of FIG. 12, for example, is configured as a stepped aperture. This inspection aperture 36 extends vertically into the preform component 20 to a plurality of aperture end surfaces 54A-C. The first end surface 54A is disposed a (e.g., uniform) first vertical distance 56A from the preform outer surface 52. Thus, a first riser surface 55A extends vertically between the preform outer surface 52 and the first end surfaces 54A. The second end surface 54B is disposed a (e.g., uniform) second vertical distance 56B from the preform outer surface 52, which second vertical distance 56B is greater than the first vertical distance 56A. Thus, a second riser surface 55B extends vertically between the first and the second end surfaces 54A and 54B. The third end surface 54C is disposed a (e.g., uniform) third vertical distance 56C from the preform outer surface 52, which third vertical distance 56C is greater than the second vertical distance 56B. Thus, a third riser surface 55C extends vertically between the second and the third end surfaces 54B and 54C.

[0070] Each of the aperture end surfaces 54A, 54B, 54C may be associated with a corresponding attribute. For example, if all of the aperture end surfaces 54A-C are present (e.g., visible) following the machining step 1004, it may be determined that the machined component satisfies the standard. If each of the aperture end surfaces 54B and 54C are present (e.g., visible) following the machining step 1004, it may also be determined that the machined component satisfies the standard. Note, where each of the aperture end surfaces 54B and 54C is still present, a portion of a step 57A which defined the original aperture end surface 54A and the riser surface 55B may still be present. The presence of at least a portion of this step 57A / the riser surface 55B may indicate the surface 54B is in its original form. If a portion of the step 57B which defined the original aperture end surface 54B and the riser surface 55C is machined away during the machining step 1004, it may be determined that the machined component does not satisfy the standard. The present disclosure, however, is not limited to the foregoing exemplary end surface / step attribute assignments.

[0071] In some embodiments, referring to FIGS. 13 and 14, one or more or all of the inspection apertures 36 may each be disposed in a raised portion of the preform component 20. The inspection apertures 36 of FIGS. 13 and 14, for example, are arranged in a raised rim portion 59 extending partially or completely about an outer peripheral portion of the preform component 20. The machined component may be inspected using the inspection apertures 36 in the raised rim portion 59 using the method 1000 discussed above. Then following the inspection step 1006, the (e.g., remaining / unmachined portion) of the raise rim portion 59 may be left or machined away.

[0072] FIGS. 15 and 16 illustrate the machined component 64 (the manufactured component) as a heat exchanger plate 78; e.g., a cooler plate. This machined component 64 includes a plurality of the inspection apertures 36 at various locations along the machined outer surface 52’. Each of these inspection apertures 36 is configured to provide information about respective portions of one or more internal passages 34 (internal features) within the machined component 64 as described above.

[0073] Referring to FIG. 17, one or more additional components 80 (e.g., electronics) may be mounted to the machined component 64. The additional components 80, for example, may be mounted to the machined outer surface 52’.

[0074] Referring to FIG. 18, a plurality of the machined components 64 may be assembled or otherwise arranged together to provide a heat exchanger system 82. The present disclosure, however, is not limited to such an exemplary heat exchanger system nor to manufacturing heat exchange components as described above.

[0075] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 19, one or more of all of the inspection apertures 36 may each be replaced with an inspection protrusion 36’. This inspection protrusion 36’ may essentially be an inverse of the inspection aperture 36 discussed above. The inspection protrusion 36’, for example, may be a rib, a pedestal, a step or any other protrusion with one or more (e.g., known) datums; e.g., geometry, dimensions, etc. The inspection protrusion 36’ of FIG. 19, for example, projects vertically out from the preform outer surface 52 to a distal end surface 54’ of the respective inspection protrusion 36’ a known vertical distance 56’. This inspection protrusion 36’ may be utilized in the method 1000 in a similar manner as the inspection aperture 36. For example, if at least a portion of this inspection protrusion 36’ remains following the machining step 1004, it may be determined that the machined component satisfies the standard. Of course, following the inspection step 1006, the inspection protrusion 36’ may be completely removed from the machined component.

[0076] While various embodiments of the present disclosure have been described, it will be apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art that many more embodiments and implementations are possible within the scope of the disclosure. For example, the present disclosure as described herein includes several aspects and embodiments that include particular features. Although these features may be described individually, it is within the scope of the present disclosure that some or all of these features may be combined with any one of the aspects and remain within the scope of the disclosure. Accordingly, the present disclosure is not to be restricted except in light of the attached claims and their equivalents.
