Synthetic Jet Ejector And Design Thereof To Facilitate Mass Production

US Patent:
2011019, Aug 18, 2011
Filed:
Feb 12, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/026220
Inventors:
Daniel N. Grimm - Round Rock TX, US
Stephen P. Darbin - Austin TX, US
Andrew Poynot - Austin TX, US
International Classification:
F28F 13/00, B21D 53/02, H01R 13/66
US Classification:
165 96, 2989003, 43962001
Abstract:
A method is provided for making a synthetic jet ejector. The method comprises (a) providing first and second voice coil bodies () having first and second sets of channels defined therein, respectively; (b) inserting first and second sets of electrically conductive terminals () into the first and second sets of channels, respectively; (c) wrapping first and second coils of wire () around said first and second voice coil bodies, respectively, such that the first coil is in electrical contact with the first set of terminals and such that the second coil is in electrical contact with the second set of terminals; (d) forming a voice coil subassembly by attaching first and second ends of a flexible, electrically conductive connector () to said first and second voice coil bodies, respectively, wherein the first end of the connector is attached such that it is in electrical contact with the first set of terminals, and wherein the second end of the connector is attached such that it is in electrical contact with the second set of terminals; and (e) incorporating the voice coil subassembly into a synthetic jet ejector () having first and second voice coils such that said first coil forms a portion of said first voice coil, and such that said second coil forms a portion of said second voice coil.
