Filed:
Apr 6, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/100049

Pressure Casting Of Electric Rotors

View page
US Patent:
8403026, Mar 26, 2013
Filed:
Mar 24, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/409726
Inventors:
Mark A. Osborne - Grand Blanc MI, US
Barry L. Priem - Saginaw MI, US
Dale A. Gerard - Bloomfield Hills MI, US
Assignee:
GM Global Technology Operations LLC - Detroit MI
International Classification:
B22D 19/00
B22D 19/16
B22D 27/04
US Classification:
164103, 164109, 164493, 164119, 164138
Abstract:
A rotor for an induction motor and a method of preparing same. The method includes making a squirrel-cage rotor made up of a cage and a laminate stack by forming a mold around the stack, heating the stack and introducing a molten metal into the mold such that the molten metal substantially fills a space defined in the stack that corresponds to the cage. In one form, the space includes slots or related channels formed in the stack that upon filling with the molten metal become longitudinal bars that form electric current loops with end rings of the cage. By heating the stack and maintaining it at a temperature high enough to keep the molten metal in a substantially molten state at least long enough for it to flow through the slots of the stack, premature freezing of the molten metal is avoided. In addition, by providing low pressure to the molten metal in conjunction with the elevated temperature in the stack, flow is promoted to ensure a substantially porosity-free, fully dense squirrel-cage for the rotor.

US Patent:
20060225857, Oct 12, 2006
Filed:
Dec 9, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/297905
Inventors:
Gary Ward - Saline MI, US
Barry Priem - Saginaw MI, US
International Classification:
B22C 7/02
B22C 9/04
US Classification:
164045000, 164034000
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for controlling the dispersion of molten metal in a mold cavity is disclosed, the control facilitated by a localized densification of foam in a lost foam casting operation for producing metal castings, wherein the filling of regions of the mold cavity which do not lend themselves to castability is maximized, an amount of backfill and casting defects are minimized, and a flow pattern of molten metal and material properties of the resulting casting are optimized.

System And Method For Integrally Serializing A Cast Part

View page
US Patent:
20130220567, Aug 29, 2013
Filed:
Feb 29, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/407954
Inventors:
Stephen L. Jones - Clio MI, US
Barry L. Priem - Saginaw MI, US
Aram H. Papazian - Highland MI, US
Assignee:
GM GLOBAL TECHNOLOGY OPERATIONS LLC - Detroit MI
International Classification:
B22D 46/00
B22C 9/00
US Classification:
164 41, 164 6, 164159
Abstract:
A method of serializing a cast part includes providing a mold for a metal casting, with the mold including an inner face partially defining a part cavity; laser engraving a representation of the two-dimensional data matrix into the inner face of the mold; and forming a serialized part by pouring molten metal into the part cavity of the mold, where the molten metal fills the part cavity including the engraved representation of the two-dimensional data matrix. The two-dimensional data matrix being generated by an electronic controller and includes error correcting information and part identifying information.

Mold Cavity Gas Removal System With Valve Position Sensor

View page
US Patent:
48362727, Jun 6, 1989
Filed:
Oct 19, 1988
Appl. No.:
7/262157
Inventors:
Barry L. Priem - Bedford IN
Assignee:
General Motors Corporation - Detroit MI
International Classification:
B22D 1714
US Classification:
164457
Abstract:
A gas removal system for a mold cavity of a die casting or other molding machine includes a valve movable to an open position to interconnect the mold cavity to a gas venting or evacuating device or to a closed position. A portion of the valve is movable relative to a fluid pressure supply inlet port to establish a first pressure condition represented by back pressure in the supply line when the valve is in one of the open or closed positions and a second pressure condition represented by substantial absence of back pressure in the supply line when the valve is in the other of those positions. The presence or absence of back pressure in the supply line is sensed to determine valve position. A control unit compares the second valve position and a scheduled valve position and indicates when the valve is improperly positioned to prevent injection of a melt into the mold cavity.

Mold Cavity Gas Removal System With Gas Flow Indicator

View page
US Patent:
48383384, Jun 13, 1989
Filed:
Mar 29, 1988
Appl. No.:
7/174572
Inventors:
Barry L. Priem - Bedford IN
Assignee:
General Motors Corporation - Detroit MI
International Classification:
B22D 1770
US Classification:
164113
Abstract:
A gas removal system for a mold cavity of a die casting or other molding machine includes a vacuum line connecting the mold cavity to a vacuum pump when a valve therebetween is open to evacuate gas from the mold cavity prior to injection of molten material therein and further includes a gas flow indicator disposed in the vacuum line between the valve and vacuum pump. The gas flow indicator includes a mechanical flapper movable in a particular manner in response to evacuation of gases from the mold cavity and in another noticeably different manner when little or no gas is evacuated from the mold cavity as a result of the valve being improperly closed. The flapper is visible to a machine operator through a window to indicate whether the gas evacuation system is operative to remove gas from the mold cavity.
