Appl. No.:

11/008044
Inventors:

Ray C. Hetherington - Virginia Beach VA, US
Mark K. Conlee - Suffolk VA, US
Todd L. Tesky - Plymouth WI, US
Vishal M. Shah - Troy MI, US
Assignee:

Illinois Tool Works Inc. - Glenview IL
International Classification:

B23P 25/00
US Classification:

29458, 29463, 294695, 2952513, 2952514, 428548, 428615, 156325
Abstract:

A method is disclosed for manufacturing a multi-part component that dampens vibration and noise caused by forces acting on the component. A pre-formed first part is treated for application of a resilient material. The material is dissolved in a solvent and is selectively applied to areas of the first part that are subject to strong forces. A second part is mechanically attached to the first part, and the entire component is cured so that the resilient material is cured, the solvent is evaporated and the parts are bonded together.
