Patent number: 9869463Abstract: A heat sink includes a base, to which an LED element is attached, and a plate-shaped heat dissipating surface integrally and continuously formed with the base around the LED element. The base and the plate-shaped heat dissipating surface are formed of aluminum or an aluminum alloy having a specific thermal conductivity ? and a specific surface emissivity ?. When the plate thickness of the base and the plate-shaped heat dissipating surface is specified in a range from 0.8 to 6 mm, a total projected area of the heat dissipating surfaces of the heat sink is specified in a range from 19000 to 60000 mm2 so as to obtain a heat resistance of 4.0 K/W or smaller. Projected areas of two plate-shaped heat dissipating surfaces of the heat sink in two different directions are sufficiently increased with respect to corresponding sectional areas of the base.Type: GrantFiled: August 30, 2013Date of Patent: January 16, 2018Assignee: Kobe Steel, Ltd.Inventors: Haruyuki Konishi, Haruyuki Matsuda

Patent number: 9751143Abstract: An aluminum alloy brazing sheet for heat exchangers has a core, a sacrificial material formed on one side of the core, and a brazing filler metal formed on the other side of the core. The core is made of an aluminum alloy containing Si, Cu, Mn, and Al. The sacrificial material is made of an aluminum alloy containing Si, Zn, Mg, and Al. The brazing filler metal is made of an aluminum alloy. The aluminum alloy brazing sheet for heat exchangers has a work hardening exponent n of not less than 0.05. The core has an average crystal grain size of not more than 10 ?m in a cross-section. The aluminum alloy brazing sheet for heat exchangers has excellent strength and corrosion resistance even when it is formed into a thin material and also has excellent high frequency weldability and weld cracking resistance during electric resistance welding.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 2013Date of Patent: September 5, 2017Assignees: KOBE STEEL, LTD., DENSO CORPORATIONInventors: Shimpei Kimura, Toshiki Ueda, Takahiro Izumi, Haruyuki Konishi, Hayaki Teramoto, Osamu Hakamata, Michiyasu Yamamoto
