Definitions
- a tool such as a mold, die, or other object formation
- the tool is formed by machining or "working" a block of
- the tool in a desired shape and geometrical configuration.
- the tool may be formed by a laminar process
- holes are formed within the tool and a slotted pin may be placed within each of the formed holes. Steam is blown through the holes, through the contained pins to create the part ' and water is then forced through the tool to cool the part. The holes are used both to melt the material which is used to form the part and to cool the part.
- the holes and slotted pins are cooperatively effective to allow air, steam, and/or water to pass through the tool n--Qs-e ⁇ --te ⁇ ⁇ a? - eat S.W StyYgHey ancf to cool the tool and/or the produced item which may reside within the tool (e.g., the heat travels from the item to the ambient environment through a medium which may be

- cooling passages such as and without limitation cooling passage 14
- sectional members 12,16 are used for illustrative purposes only and are not meant to limit the invention in any manner.
- cooling passages such as passage 14 are selectively formed between adjacent sectional members, such as members 12, 16, by the cooperation of respective • portions of the sectional members having a desired shape or
- each of the adjacent sectional members 12, 16, which are to form cooling passage 14 respectively includes a respective flat or broad surface 13 and at least one depressed or recessed slot, groove, or indentation 18, 20, which may be formed by etching, laser cutting, or substantially any other material removal process.
- a cooling path 14 is formed by the registration (e.g., the at least partial "alignment") of a unique one of the portions 18 with a unique one of the portions 20.
- These portions 18, 20 may be of any desired and respective shape, size, and/or geometric configuration.
- portions 20 of sectional member 16 may be of a different shape than portion 18 of sectional member 12 although, in Figure 1, these are shown as generally rer. "-.-- ⁇ • .'lar in nature.
- cooling passages 14 may be selectively formed along any location or path within tool
- Spacer members 32 may be formed
