Refrigerator glass shelves are manufactured by Insert Injection Molding. The current process of injection of glass into the mold induces movement of the core, on urethane springs. Defects in the product can result from too low a force being transmitted from the springs. To solve this problem, the force on the moving core and the injection molding pressure were subjected to numerical analysis. Based on this, the number of urethane springs as well as their hardness was changed to improve the situation. The number of springs was changed from 6 to 4. The diameter of the springs was increased from ${\emptyset}75$ to ${\emptyset}100$, and the hardness was increased from 70 (shore A) to 90 (shore A). These improvements caused the force on the molding core to increase by approximately 65,442 N. The proportion of defects decreased by 66%.

Increased demand for parts with micro-pattern structure made of metals, ceramics, and composites in various fields such as medical ultrasonic sensors, CT collimators, and ultra-small actuator parts. Micro powder injection molding (PIM) is a technology for manufacturing micro size, high volume, complex, precision, net-shape components from either metal or ceramic powder. In the present study, a standard mold with a variable insert core capable of producing various micro patterns was investigated. An injection molding test was performed on a standard mold using a line type micro-pattern core having an aspect ratio of 2, a slenderness ratio of 70, a pattern size of $200{\mu}m$, and a pattern spacing of $150{\mu}m$. During the filling process, the deformation of the mold with large aspect ratio and slenderness ratio was analyzed by the experiment and the numerical simulation according to the position of the gate. We proposed a mold structure that minimizes mold deformation by gate modification and enables uniform pattern filling behavior.

The objective of this paper is to investigate into the influence of the injection conditions on the insert deformation and the wall thickness of the injection part using the three-dimensional injection molding analysis. Full three-dimensional insert model was added to the injection molding analysis model to consider the effects of insert deformation during the injection molding process. In order to obtain the optimum injection molding condition with a minimum insert deformation, degree of experiments were utilized. From the results of the analyses, it was shown that the optimum injection condition is injection time of 1.6 sec, injection pressure of 30 MPa and packing time of 15 sec. In addition it was shown that the wall thickness is approached to target thickness when the core deformation is considered in the injection molding analysis.

Microstructures and tensile properties in arc brazed joints of ferritic stainless steel, 429EM using Cu-8.6%Al insert metal was investigated as function of brazing current. The brazing speed was fixed at 800mm/min and brazing current varied in the range of 80A to 120A. The initial phase of filler metal was Cu single phase. However, the insert metal structures of brazed joints was composed of Cu matrix and intermetallic compound such as ${\gamma}_1(Al_4Cu_9)$, and flower-shape Fe-Cr. The fraction of ${\gamma}_1(Al_4Cu_9)$ phase was similar with 80A and 100A brazing currents while that of brazed with 120A was decreased. On the other hand, the fraction of Fe-Cr phase increased with increasing of the brazing current. A reaction layer at the base metal/insert metal interface was observed and this reaction layer was thickened with increasing of the brazing current. In the brazed joints with the current lower than 100A, crack was grew up along the interface which was perpendicular to the tensile stress, and then, passed through the insert metal in the final stage of fracture. As the brazing current increased to 120A, fracture occurred at the base metal.

본 연구에서는 새롭게 개발된 "강도 향상 인써트"에 대해 조인트 시편을 제작하여 Pull-out 및 전단시험을 수행하여 보통 인써트의 조인트 강도와 비교하고 그 파손 특성을 조사하였다. 이를 통해 새로운 인써트에 대한 성능을 확인하였다. 시험 결과, 새로운 "강도 향상 인써트"는 기존의 보통 인써트에 비해 Pull-out 강도는 2.1배, 전단강도는 2.04배 향상되는 것을 확인하였다. 따라서 향후 높은 인써트 강도를 요구하는 구조에 유용하게 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

본 논문에서는 풀아웃 하중과 전단하중을 받는 복합재 샌드위치 인써트 조인트의 강도 특성을 실험으로 연구하였다. 샌드위치의 면재는 탄소 평직, 심재는 노멕스 하니콤, 접착제는 FM73을 사용하여 동시성형으로 제작하였다. 코어의 높이와 밀도, 면재의 두께, 하중의 형태를 달리하여 10종류, 총 75개의 인써트 조인트에 대한 실험을 수행하였다. 실험 결과, 풀아웃 하중에서는 코어의 높이와 밀도가 모두 파손하중에 영향을 미치지만 밀도의 영향이 상대적으로 더 크게 나타났다. 전단하중의 경우 면재의 두께가 파손하중에 결정적인 영향을 미치는 반면, 코어의 높이는 큰 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 동일한 치수의 조인트에서도, 포팅된 쎌의 수에 따라 파손하중은 달라지며, 특히 풀아웃 하중에서 그러한 특성이 현저하게 나타났다.

In this study, silicone injection molding technology with curved thermoplastic insert was developed to produce super-hydrophobic surface. Thermoplastic insert part and injection mold design of base plastic cover were performed to produce cost effective hydrophobic surface part. An optimization process of part thickness for thermoplastic insert part was performed with transient thermal analysis under silicone over-molding process condition. Structural thermal analysis of silicone injection mold was also performed to obtain uniform temperature condition on the surface of micro-patterned mold core. Super-hydrophobic surface for the silicone injection molded part with thermoplastic insert could be verified from the measurement of contact angle. It was shown that the averaged contact angle was over $140^{\circ}$.

An experimental study is conducted to investigate the flow and heat transfer characteristics of a multi-tube inserted impinging jet. Four different multi-tube devices are tested for various nozzle-to-plate distance. Flow visualization by smoke-wire method and velocity measurements using a hot-wire anemometer are applied to analyze the flow characteristics of the multi-tube insert impinging jet. The local heat transfer coefficients of the multi-tube inserted impinging jet on the impingement surface are measured and the results are compared to those of the conventional jet. In multi-tube inserted system the multi-tube length plays an important role in the flow and heat transfer characteristics of the jet flow. With multi-tube insert of I3d4 and I6d4 which has relatively longer tube length than the multi-tube-exit of I3d1 and I6d1, the flow maintains its increased velocity far downstream due to interaction between adjacent flows. For the small H/D of 4, the local heat transfer coefficients of multi-tube inserted impinging jet are much higher than those of the conventional jet because the flow has higher velocity and turbulent intensity by the use of the multi-tube device. At large gap distance of H/D=12, also higher heat transfer rates are obtained by installing multi-tube insert except multi-tube insert of I3d1.

본 논문에서는 전단하중을 받는 다양한 알루미늄 샌드위치 체결부의 파손 특성에 대한 시험 연구를 수행하였다. 3종류의 인서트 형식 체결부와 2종류의 포팅 형식 체결부에 대해 총 60개의 시편을 제작하여 시험을 수행하였다. 시험 결과, 인서트 형식 체결부의 경우 쓰루 클리어런스(through-clearance) 인서트를 사용한 경우의 파손하중이 가장 높게 나타났으며 포팅 형식 체결부의 경우 딤플 와셔(dimple washer)가 있을 때 전단하중이 약10% 향상되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 예상대로 면재의 두께가 증가할수록 전단파손하중도 증가하고, 특히 하중치구와 접촉하고 있는 상부 면재의 효과가 지배적인 것을 확인하였다.
