摘要:
A condenser having two piece die formed condenser tube parts that are joined along a beveled outer edge. The tube material is braze cladded on both sides for corrosion resistance and for high quality internal braze bonding of (1) longitudinal tube webs for optimizing burst strength, and (2) the tubes to associated air centers which are not cladded for an economical unit. The tubes can be readily made in a multiport or single port design by die forming the longitudinal webs in each tube part, and at discreet lengths along the tube length to provide a cut off area for sizing the tube and a smooth circumferential area where the tube parts with a beveled outer edge enter the header providing a close fit and high quality brazed joints. This tube design provides material and cost advantages over the conventional extruded tubes or roll formed condenser tubes and is readily fabricated using corrosion resistant alloys providing long service life. The number and spacing of the webs in this construction can be readily made by changing the spacing of the dies for forming the tube parts. The method provided by this invention provides increased output with higher machine speeds as compared to extrusion type processes.

A heat exchanger assembly has a pair of spaced extruded tanks and a tube and header subassembly including a pair of header plates on opposite ends of a plurality of spaced parallel tubes. The extruded tanks include stop surfaces thereon for locating the subassembly within the extruded tanks and the extruded tanks further include a pair of seal ribs and a pair of deformable side flanges defining a pocket for receiving flux material to secure the subassembly to the extruded tanks without exposing the flux material to the interior of the extruded tanks.

A heat exchanger apparatus includes a pair of tanks with parallel tube passes and air centers connected therebetween for cooling the engine fluid, such as a coolant, by the air intake stream to the vehicle. The tanks are formed by an extrusion forming three sides thereof and a header is brazed thereto for forming the fluid chamber in the tanks. The extrusion includes a die formed pocket therein to receive the sides and one end of a partition member and the second end of the partition member is curved to abut the header. The curved second end has flanged ears therein that seat in segments of the die formed pocket which are laterally outwardly of spaced sides segments of the pocket to position the partition within the pocket so that an outer surface thereon will be positioned against a header to form a braze seal between the partition and both the header and the extruded tank.

A vehicle ordering system that recommends to a vehicle dealership a vehicle to order from a vehicle manufacturer based on past sales (at various sales time periods and taking into account sales at the dealership level versus sales at the district and/or region level), current inventory (including in stock and in route), anticipated but not yet finalized orders, dealership size and calculated metrics derived from and using those elements.

A method for constructing a radio frequency filter (100) includes depositing on a dielectric substrate (102) a plurality of layers of a conductive material (210, 216, 218, 220, 222), a dielectric material (217), and a sacrificial material (1200, 1500, 1700, 1900). The deposition is controlled to form at least one transmission line (104, 106, 108) including a shield (202) and a center conductor (204) disposed coaxially within the shield. The deposition is further controlled to form at least one distributed filter element electrically coupled to the center conductor (204), and at least one housing (402) electrically coupled to the shield. The method also includes dissolving at least one layer of the sacrificial material to form an interior channel (226) within at least one shield. The dissolving of the sacrificial material also results in the formation of a interior space within at least one housing containing the distributed filter element.

Increasing the effective aperture of an ultrasound imaging probe by including more than one probe head and using the elements of all of the probes to render an image can greatly improve the lateral resolution of the generated image. In order to render an image, the relative positions of all of the elements must be known precisely. A calibration fixture is described in which the probe assembly to be calibrated is placed above a test block and transmits ultrasonic pulses through the test block to an ultrasonic sensor. As the ultrasonic pulses are transmitted though some or all of the elements in the probe to be tested, the differential transit times of arrival of the waveform are measured precisely. From these measurements the relative positions of the probe elements can be computed and the probe can be aligned.

A method has been described for making an electrical structure having an air dielectric and includes forming a first subunit including a sacrificial substrate, an electrically conductive layer including a first metal on the sacrificial substrate, and a sacrificial dielectric layer on the sacrificial substrate and the electrically conductive layer. The method further includes forming a second subunit including a dielectric layer and an electrically conductive layer thereon including the first metal, and coating a second metal onto the first metal of one or more of the first and second subunits. The method also includes aligning the first and second subunits together, heating and pressing the aligned first and second subunits to form an intermetallic compound of the first and second metals bonding adjacent metal portions together, and removing the sacrificial substrate and sacrificial dielectric layer to thereby form the electrical structure having the air dielectric.

A Multiple Aperture Ultrasound Imaging (MAUI) probe or transducer is uniquely capable of simultaneous imaging of a region of interest from separate apertures of ultrasound arrays. Some embodiments provide systems and methods for designing, building and using ultrasound probes having continuous arrays of ultrasound transducers which may have a substantially continuous concave curved shape in two or three dimensions (i.e. concave relative to an object to be imaged). Other embodiments herein provide systems and methods for designing, building and using ultrasound imaging probes having other unique configurations, such as adjustable probes and probes with variable configurations.
