  • Publication number: 20240097365
    Abstract: An apparatus for guidance and retention of integrated circuit boards includes a first structure configured to receive a first integrated circuit board and guide the first integrated circuit board for coupling to a substrate. The apparatus further includes a second structure configured to be removably coupled to the first structure. The second structure includes a first spring member configured to apply a first compressive force to the first integrated circuit board.

  • Patent number: 5484492
    Abstract: A cast hypereutectic Al-Si alloy having 12% to 15% Si, and a method of producing such alloy. The alloy and a melt used in the method has at least one element of a first group of elements and at least one element of a second group of elements and further comprises Cu 1.5 to 5.5%; Ni 1.0 to 3.0%; Mg 0.1 to 1.0%; Fe 0.1 to 1.0%; Mn 0.1 to 0.8%; Zr 0.01 to 0.1; Zn 0 to 3.0%; Sn 0 to 0.2%; Pb 0 to 0.2%; Cr 0 to 0.1; Si modifier (Na, Sr) 0.001 to 0.1%; B (elemental) 0.05% maximum; Ca 0.03% maximum; P 0.05% maximum; and others 0.05% maximum each, the balance, apart from incidental impurities being Al. The element of the first group provides stable nucleant particles in the melt. The element of the second groups forms an intermetallic phase such that crystals of the phase form in advance of and nucleate primary Si to provide complex particles which promote nucleation of Al-Si eutectic on cooling of the melt below the eutectic solidification temperature.

  • Patent number: 5316070
    Abstract: Al base - Si hypereutetic alloys can exhibit problems of variable and unwanted microstructure throughout the section of the article being cast. This problem is overcome by controlled cooling of the mold in critical areas, to remove or prevent excessive accumulation of heat energy and avoid the formation of intense convection currents in still molten alloy. Consequently, the necessary coupled growth of the Al-Si eutectic is promoted and the resultant microstructure is substantially free of primary Si. The 3HA and modified 3HA alloys of the applicant are considered on the basis of their wear resistance and improved machineability for automotive applications, such as engine blocks and cylinder heads. A first feature of the controlled cooling procedure is supply of coolant to regions in the mold, above and extending from the gate, such that solidification progresses uniformly from the remote regions of the mold spaces towards the gate to give a substantially uniform microstructure throughout the casting.
