Abstract

A fin frame baseplate is disclosed. Specific implementations include a baseplate configured to be coupled to a substrate, a fin frame including a base portion coupled to the baseplate, and a plurality of fins extending from the base portion, the plurality of fins protruding from the base portion. The fin frame may include a plurality of openings therethrough.

Claims (23)

1. A fin frame assembly, comprising: a baseplate configured to be coupled to a substrate; a first strip of material comprising a plurality of regularly spaced projections formed from the first strip of material, the plurality of regularly spaced projections comprising base portions coupled to the baseplate; and a second strip of material comprising a plurality of regularly spaced projections formed from the second strip of material, the plurality of regularly spaced projections comprising base portions coupled to the baseplate; a gap between the first strip of material and the second strip of material; wherein a longest length of the gap is parallel to a longest length of the first strip of material; wherein the longest length of the first strip of material is parallel to a longest length of the second strip of material; and wherein the plurality of regularly spaced projections of each of the first strip of material and the second strip of material comprises a first set of projections and a second set of projections, wherein a height of the first set of projections is greater than a height of the second set of projections.

2. The fin frame assembly of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of regularly spaced projections formed from the first strip of material is staggered relative to the plurality of regularly spaced projections formed from the second strip of material.

3. The fin frame assembly of claim 1 , further comprising a third strip of material comprising a plurality of regularly spaced projections formed from the third strip of material, wherein a longest length of the third strip of material is parallel to the longest length of the first strip of material.

4. The fin frame assembly of claim 3 , further comprising a second gap between the second strip of material and the third strip of material.

5. The fin frame assembly of claim 3 , further comprising a fourth strip of material comprising a plurality of regularly spaced projections formed from the fourth strip of material, wherein a longest length of the fourth strip of material is parallel to the longest length of the first strip of material.

6. The fin frame assembly of claim 5 , further comprising a second gap between the second strip of material and the third strip of material and a third gap between the third strip of material and the fourth strip of material.

7. The fin frame assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first strip of material is comprised of a single piece of material.

8. The fin frame assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first strip of material is comprised of more than a single piece of material.

9. A fin frame assembly, comprising: a baseplate configured to be coupled to a substrate; a plurality of strips of material, each strip of material of the plurality of strips of material comprising a plurality of regularly spaced projections formed from each strip of material, the plurality of regularly spaced projections comprising base portions coupled to the baseplate; wherein each strip of material is oriented parallel to every other strip of material; wherein the plurality of strips of material comprise at least four strips of material; wherein the plurality of regularly spaced projections comprises a first set of projections and a second set of projections, wherein a height of the first set of projections is greater than a height of the second set of projections.

10. The fin frame assembly of claim 9 , wherein each strip of material is staggered from an adjacent strip of material of the plurality of strips of material.

11. The fin frame assembly of claim 9 , wherein the plurality of strips of material comprise more than four strips of material.

12. The fin frame assembly of claim 9 , wherein each regularly spaced projection, in conjunction with the baseplate, forms an opening having a perimeter in a shape of an isosceles trapezoid.

13. The fin frame assembly of claim 9 , wherein the plurality of strips of material are coupled to the baseplate through at least one of welding, soldering, or bonding.

14. The fin frame assembly of claim 9 , further comprising a plurality of gaps formed between each adjacent pair of strips of material of the plurality of strips of material.

15. A fin frame assembly, comprising:

a baseplate configured to be coupled to a substrate;

a first plurality of regularly spaced projections formed from a first strip of material, the first set of regularly spaced projections comprising base portions coupled to the baseplate; and

a second plurality of regularly spaced projections formed from a second strip of material, the second set of regularly spaced projections comprising base portions coupled to the baseplate;

wherein the first plurality of regularly spaced projections and the second plurality of regularly spaced projections each comprise a first set of projections and a second set of projections; and

wherein the first set of projections has a greater height than the second set of projections.

16. The fin frame assembly of claim 15 , wherein a position of the first set of projections alternate with a position of the second set of projections.

17. The fin frame assembly of claim 15 , wherein a longest length of the first strip of material is parallel to a longest length of the second strip of material.

18. The fin frame assembly of claim 17 , further comprising a gap formed between the first plurality of regularly spaced projections and the second plurality of regularly spaced projections.
