Abstract
A method for forming a tool 10 and a tool 10 which is comprised of several selectively coupled sectional members, such as members 12, 16, which are placed upon a heat resistant surface 20. A sealing material 24, such as copper in a solid molecular state, is placed around the periphery of the tool 10. The copper in a solid molecular state 24, the heat resistant surface 20, and the tool 10 are placed within a heat source which transforms the copper in a solid molecular state 24 into liquid which flows within the gaps, such as gap 41 and within knife edges 26, 28 which exists within the tool 10. After the copper 24 cools, the cooper 24 reinforces and strengthens the tool 10.
Description
- The present invention generally relates to a tool and to a method for creating a tool and more particularly, to a laminated tool which is formed by the creation and the selective coupling of members which have certain respective attributes and which are rigidly and selectively sealed in an efficient manner, thereby allowing for the creation of a relatively strong tool.
- A production or a prototype tool, such as a mold, die, or other object formation apparatus is used to repeatedly form or create substantially similar objects or products. Conventional tooling methodologies and strategies (e.g., stamping, molding, and casting) typically require a solid block of material (e.g., a wrought block of solid steel) to be machined, burned, or otherwise “worked” into a desired shape or form, thereby forming or creating a tool having a desired shape and geometrical configuration. While these strategies and methodologies do produce tools having a desired shape or form, these strategies and methodologies are relatively expensive and inefficient and/or time consuming.
- Alternatively, the tool may be formed by a laminar process in which various sectional members or laminates are created and selectively coupled (e.g., by gluing, bolting, welding, or bonding), effective to allow the coupled members or laminates to cooperatively form the tool (i.e., as the separate and respective laminates are formed, they are stacked and coupled to collectively form the desired tool). Particularly, the laminar process of forming a tool is a relatively cost effective, efficient, and simple method for producing production and/or prototype tools.
- However, tools which are formed by a laminar process are oftentimes structurally weaker or suffer from an overall weaker constitution than those formed by the conventional process of machining due to a failure to adequately or fully and rigidly secure the sections or laminates together. Any movement in the sections will undesirably cause the surface of tool to change, thereby causing the production of inferior and “out of tolerance” components. Moreover, a further drawback associated with laminated tooling is the difficulty in developing or creating a smooth continuous angled surface formed by adjacently coupled laminates or sectional plates. That is, “knife edges” typically exist between adjacent sections or laminates which cooperately form a greatly varying surface contour. A “knife edge” is an edge or axis which is disposed within a greatly varying surface formed by a pair of adjacently coupled laminates. By way of example and without limitation, these “knife edges” undesirably disturb the relatively smooth transition between adjacently coupled plates or laminates, thereby causing a poor and undesirable surface finish. Moreover, these “knife edges” are very thin and relatively fragile and are likely to prematurely fail and become easily damaged during machining and finishing. Moreover, when a tool having “knife edges” is used in injection molds, the injected material tends to peel the laminate in the vicinity of the knife edges, thereby significantly lowering the usable life of the tool. Moreover, such “knife edges” make the tolerances associated with and required of the production parts very difficult to maintain. Hence, it should be realized that each of the aforementioned problems or drawbacks results in a substantially ineffective tool, higher production costs, and inefficient overall operation.
- There is therefore a need for a method to selectively create a laminated tool which overcomes some or all of the previously delineated drawbacks of prior techniques and strategies. Moreover, there is a further need to form a laminated tool by the use of a method which allows for “knife edges” to be seamlessly “blended” or eliminated in a relatively fast, inexpensive, and efficient manner. There is also a need to form a relatively strong tool which overcomes some or all of the previous delineated disadvantages of pror tools formed by a laminar process. These and other needs are addressed by the present invention, as is more fully delineated below.
- It is a first non-limiting advantage of the present invention to provide a method for creating a laminated tool which overcomes some or all of the previously delineated drawbacks of prior techniques.
- It is a second non-limiting advantage of the present invention to provide a tool which is relatively strong.
- It is a third non-limiting advantage of the present invention to provide a method for creating a laminated tool which overcomes some or all of the previously delineated drawbacks associated with prior laminating tooling methodologies and which, by way of example and without limitation, allows for the efficient formation of a relatively smooth surface which is cooperatively formed by a pair of adjacently coupled laminates.
- According to a first aspect of the present invention, a tool is provided. Particularly, the tool comprises at least a first and a second section, the at least second section being attached to the at least first section; and a sealer material disposed between the at least first and second sections.
- According to a second aspect of the present invention a laminated tool is provided. Particularly, the laminated tool is made by the process of creating a first member of a certain shape; creating a second member of a certain shape; registering the first member with the second member; attaching the second member to the first member; providing a certain material; placing the certain material in close proximity to the first and second members; and heating the first and second member and the certain material, effective to cause the certain material to flow between the first and second members.
- According to a third aspect of the present invention, a method is provided for creating a tool. The method includes the steps of forming a first member having a certain shape; forming a second member having a certain shape; attaching the first member to the second member; placing the attached first and second members on a surface; disposing a certain material around the periphery of the attached first and second members; heating the surface, the attached first and second members, and the certain material for a predetermined amount of time; and removing the attached first and second members from the heat source.
- These and other features, aspects, and advantages of the present invention will become apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art from a reading of the following detailed description of the preferred embodiment of the invention and by reference to the following drawings.
-
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a tool which is made in accordance with the teachings of the preferred embodiment of the invention in combination with a heat resistant surface and sealer material. -
FIG. 2 is a perspective unassembled view of the tool which is shown inFIG. 1 . -
FIG. 3 is a view which is similar to that which is shown inFIG. 1 but illustrating the flow of the sealer material into gaps which reside within the tool. - Referring now to
FIGS. 1 and 2 , there is shown atool 10 which is made in accordance with the teachings of the preferred embodiment of the invention. It should be realized thattool 10 may be of any substantially desired shape or geometric configuration and that nothing in this Application is intended to limit the applicability of the invention to a particular type of tool or apparatus. Rather, thetool 10 is only one non-limiting example of a tool which may be produced according to the invention. - Particularly,
tool 10 is made by the use of a lamination process in which several sectional members, such assectional members tool 10. It should be appreciated that nothing in this Application is meant to limit the applicability of the invention to a particular type, shape, or configuration of sectional members. Moreover, the sectional members which are shown inFIGS. 1-3 , such assectional members - Particularly, as will be noted from the discussion below and according to the preferred embodiment of the invention, some of seams, such as
seam 18, which are formed between adjacent and bonded sectional members, such asmembers tool 10 and generally do not pose the same difficulties which are associated with knife edges. The term “adjacent”, in this description, means the sectional members are physically and abuttingly connected within or as part of thetool 10. - Particularly, the sectional members, such as
sectional members seams 18. Hence, aseam 18 is formed by the registration (e.g., the at least partial “alignment”) of a first one of the sections with a second one of the sections. These utilized sections may be of any desired and respective shape, size, and/or geometric configuration. Moreover, abutting sections may have a respective and unique or different shape. - Furthermore, the laminated
tool 10 also includes “knife edges” or “knife type seams” 26, 28 which are respectively formed between thesectional pairs edge 26 is created between the angled portion 35 ofsection 29 and the angled portion 37 ofsection 30, thereby formingseam 26 which resides within a greatly varying surface contour region of thetool 10. Knifeedge 28 is formed between the angle portion 37 ofsection 30 and the substantiallyflat face 39 of section 32. Gaps typically exist within each of theseams tool 10 to a certain angle or to the number of “knife edges” 26, 28 which are formed by the lamination process which is used to create thetool 10. Rather, the location ofseams 18 and “knife edges” 26, 28 are for illustrative purposes only and are not meant to limit the invention in any manner.Cooling holes 14 may be formed within thetool 10 after the tool has been constructed in a conventional manner (e.g., by machining) or theseholes 14 may be formed from the registration of holes which respectively occur within some or all of the sections which are used to create thetool 10. Moreover, gaps, such asgap 41, may reside within or be disposed within the formed tool 10 (e.g., betweensections 30, 32) even after the sections, such assections 30, 32 are attached by a conventional lamination strategy. These gaps may be created/formed by imperfections occurring upon the surface of certain sections, such as bumps, or by a misalignment or misregistration of two adjacent sections. Such gaps are also typically present along knife edges, such asedges seams 18. As earlier delineated, these gaps undesirably weaken thetool 10 and may cause sections, forming the gap, to undesirably shift. - As best shown in
FIG. 1 , according to the methodology of the invention, the laminatedtool 10 is subject to the methodology of the preferred embodiment of the invention and, as such, thetool 10, according to the teachings of the present invention, represents or comprises a “pre-tool” apparatus (e.g., an apparatus which must be subjected to further processing in order to form a final tool having desired characteristics or attributes). Particularly apparatus or pre-tool 10 is disposed upon a heatresistant surface 20 and discrete portions of sealable material, such as copper 24 residing within or formed within a substantially solid molecular state are selectively placed upon the heatresistant surface 20 and generally around the periphery of the laminatedtool 10. Hence, the laminatedtool 10 is placed upon a heatresistant surface 20 and a predetermined total volume of the copper 24 is placed upon the heatresistant surface 20 in selected positions around the base periphery 34 of thetool 10. It should be understood that nothing in this description is meant to limit the type of material which is placed around the periphery of thetool 10. For example and without limitation, the copper material may be replaced with bronze or any other desired and selectively “meltable” and “flowable” material. It should be further understood that the form or the shape of the selected bronze or copper is not limited to a square sheet but can be utilized in a powder form, block form, and coil form, and that nothing in this description is meant to limit the invention to a particular form of copper. In the preferred embodiment of the invention, the total volume of copper which is disposed around the periphery of the pre-tool 10 is equal to the sum of each volume of each gap present within the pre-tool 10 and, in an alternative embodiment of the invention, is equal to about one half of the total volume of the pre-tool 10. Other calculatable amounts of the sealing and reinforcement material 24 may be utilized. - As best shown in
FIG. 3 , after the calculated amount of the copper in solid molecular state 24 is disposed on the heatresistant surface 20 and around the base of thelaminated tool 10, the heatresistant surface 20, thelaminated tool 10, and the copper 24 are heated or placed in a heat source (not shown). For example and without limitation, the heat source may comprise a furnace, an oven, or substantially any other commercially available and conventional heat source. - The heat source temperature is then raised to a temperature which is above the melting point of the copper 24 (i.e., the temperature at which copper transforms from a solid molecular state to a liquid molecular state, or approximately 1000 degrees Celsius), and the
laminated tool 10 is contained or “baked” within the heat source for approximately one-half of an hour (the “baking” time varies depending on the size of the laminated tool). During this “baking” time, the copper in solid molecular state 24 melts into a liquid state or form and naturally flows or “wicks” between all of the coupled laminates and within all of the gaps formed within the pre-tool 10 (i.e., the meltedcopper 25 naturally flows into the gaps, such asgap 41, which exist within the laminated pre-tool, around thelaminated pre-tool 10, within theseams 18, and within the “knife edges” 26, 28) at this temperature (i.e., 1000 degrees Celsius). Hence, the copper flows within and seals the gaps which may exist within thelaminated pre-tool 10 and reinforces or strengthens the pre-tool 10 such as in the vicinity of the knife edges 26, 28 after the copper sealingly and reinforceably cools, thereby forming a “final”tool 10 having desired structural properties and attributes. - It should be appreciated that the shear strength of the
laminated tool 10 using the process delineated above, is approximately ninety percent that of a wrought block of equivalent steel (i.e., the traditional material used in the machining process). It should also be appreciated that the invention is not limited to the exact construction and method which has been described above, but that various alterations and modifications may be made without departing from the spirit and the scope of the invention as is delineated in the following claims and that the cooper material 24 functions as a sealant to strengthen the previously coupled sectional members, thereby allowing a relativelystrong tool 10 to be constructed. It should also be appreciated that the copper 24 may be applied to adjacent pairs of sectional members, such asmember members
