Embodiment Construction

[0016] Referring to the drawings, wherein like reference numerals indicate like elements, part 10 is figure 1 is generally shown at 10 in . refer to figure 2 , component 10 includes cast part 12 and insert 14 .

[0017] Cast part 12 includes material 16 cast from molten material 18 and sacrificial suspension 20, such as image 3 shown. Insert 14 is configured to provide damping to component 10 . refer again figure 2 , the insert 14 is completely surrounded or otherwise hermetically sealed within the cast portion 12 . Insert 14 may be a cast-in-place (CIP) insert that is cast within cast portion 12 using high pressure molding.

[0018] Damper assembly 22 is configured for insertion into mold 52 to cast component 10 from molten material 18 . Damper assembly 22 includes insert 14 and sacrificial suspension 20 operatively attached to insert 14 . The sacrificial hanger 20 is configured to secure and position the insert 14 within the mold 52 . The sacrificial suspension d...

Abstract

A component includes a cast portion and an insert. The cast portion includes a sacrificial suspension device. The insert is configured to provide damping to the component. The sacrificial suspension device is dissolved during a casting process, into a molten material, forming the cast portion such that the insert is fully encapsulated by the cast portion, including the dissolved suspension device.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to components with inserts, and methods of forming components with inserts. Background technique [0002] Motor vehicle components are often subjected to vibrations during the course of normal operation. Among other potential adverse effects, these vibrations can cause noise that is transmitted into the vehicle passenger compartment and beyond. The resulting vibrations can also lead to component fatigue and failure. In order to reduce the noise transmitted to the passenger compartment, dampers may be attached to components of the vehicle. Contents of the invention [0003] A component includes a cast portion and an insert. The casting part includes the sacrificial suspension. The insert is configured to provide damping to the component. The sacrificial suspension is dissolved into the molten material during the casting process, forming a cast part such that the insert is completely surrounded by the cast part includ...
