B29C 64/307
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for resistive heating usable in composite-based additive manufacturing is disclosed. The method includes providing a prepared stack of substrate sheets, placing the stack between electrode assemblies of a compression device, applying a current to thereby heat the stack to a final temperature to liquefy applied powder, compressing the stack to a final height, cooling the stack, and removing the cooled, compressed stack from the compression device. The apparatus comprises at least two plates, a power supply for providing current, a first electrode assembly and a second electrode assembly.

B29C 64/40
B29C 64/165
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for the automated manufacturing of three-dimensional (3D) composite-based objects is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a material feeder, a printer, a powder system, a transfer system, and optionally a fuser. The method comprises inserting a stack of substrate sheets into a material feeder, transferring a sheet of the stack from the material feeder to a printer, depositing fluid on the single sheet while the sheet rests on a printer platen, transferring the sheet from the printer to a powder system, depositing powder onto the single sheet such that the powder adheres to the areas of the sheet onto which the printer has deposited fluid, removing any powder that did not adhere to the sheet, optionally melting the powder on the substrate, and repeating the steps for as many additional sheets as required for making a specified 3D object.

Three-Dimensional Printed Composites Using Sodium Silicate Binder

US Patent:
20200406532, Dec 31, 2020
Filed:
Jan 28, 2020
Appl. No.:
16/775269
Inventors:
- Northbrook IL, US
Eugene Gore - Des Plaines IL, US
Buckley Crist - Wilmette IL, US
Michael Vasquez - Chicago IL, US
John Bayldon - Evanston IL, US
Assignee:
Impossible Objects LLC - Northbrook IL
International Classification:
B29C 64/147
B33Y 80/00
B29C 64/153
B33Y 70/10
B33Y 10/00
Abstract:
A three-dimensional object comprises stacked substrate layers infiltrated by a hardened material. Each substrate layer is a sheet-like structure that comprises fibers held together by a sodium silicate binder. The substrate layer material may be non-woven or woven. The substrate layer may be a non-woven fiber veil bound by a sodium silicate binder. The fibers may optionally include carbon fibers, ceramic fibers, polymer fibers, glass fibers, metal fibers, or a combination thereof.

Three-Dimensional Printed Composites Using Engineered Powders

US Patent:
20200406538, Dec 31, 2020
Filed:
Jan 28, 2020
Appl. No.:
16/775267
Inventors:
- Northbrook IL, US
Eugene Gore - Des Plaines IL, US
Buckley Crist - Wilmette IL, US
Michael Vasquez - Chicago IL, US
John Bayldon - Evanston IL, US
Assignee:
Impossible Objects LLC - Northbrook IL
International Classification:
B29C 64/165
B29C 64/295
B29C 64/245
Abstract:
A three-dimensional object comprises stacked substrate layers infiltrated by a hardened material comprising engineered powder that is transformed into a substance that flows and subsequently hardens into the hardened material in a spatial pattern that infiltrates positive regions, and does not infiltrate negative regions, in the substrate layers. The powder may be emulsion aggregation powder, chemically-produced toner powder, or a combination. It may be a thermoplastic or thermosettable polymer and may include nylon, elastomers, polyolefins, polyethylene, polyether ether ketone, polyimide, polyetherimide, polyphenylene sulfide, polystyrene, polypropylene, polymethyl methacrylate, and polyaryletherketone, or a combination. The powder particles may have a pre-specified controlled shape and/or a non-homogenous composition. Surface treatments and/or additives may be used to control powder flow and charge distribution. Each substrate layer may be a sheet-like structure comprising fibers held together by binder. The binder may include sodium silicate.

Tow Stabilization Method And Apparatus

US Patent:
20190283277, Sep 19, 2019
Filed:
Nov 16, 2018
Appl. No.:
16/194279
Inventors:
- Northbrook IL, US
John Bayldon - Evanston IL, US
Buckley Crist - Wilmette IL, US
Eugene Gore - Des Plaines IL, US
Assignee:
Impossible Objects, Inc. - Northbrook IL
International Classification:
B29B 15/10
D04H 3/12
D04H 3/04
Abstract:
A tow stabilization method includes applying liquid to a tow having fibers arranged into a non-stabilized spread-out fiber web, applying powder to the web to adhere the powder where liquid was applied, removing powder from where it did not adhere, and fusing the powder remaining on the web to stabilize the fiber arrangement. The liquid may be volatile. The step of fusing may include heating the fiber web. The liquid and/or powder may be selectively applied. Selective application of powder may be used without application of liquid or powder removal. A tow stabilization apparatus includes a liquid applicator, powder applicator, powder remover, and powder fuser. The liquid applicator may include spray nozzles, applicators based on miniature solenoid valves, inkjet printing heads, and roll applicators. The powder remover may include rollers, air blasters, vibrators, sound wave generators, and vacuums. The powder fuser may include heat applicators and chemical reaction initiators.

B33Y 40/00
Abstract:
A method, product, apparatus, and article of manufacture for the application of the Composite Based Additive Manufacturing (CBAM) method to produce objects in metal, and in metal fiber hybrids or composites. The approach has many advantages, including the ability to produce more complex geometries than conventional methods such as milling and casting, improved material properties, higher production rates and the elimination of complex fixturing, complex tool paths and tool changes and, for casting, the need for patterns and tools. The approach works by slicing a 3D model, selectively printing a fluid onto a sheet of substrate material for each layer based on the model, flooding onto the substrate a powdered metal to which the fluid adheres in printed areas, clamping and aligning a stack of coated sheets, heating the stacked sheets to melt the powdered metal and fuse the layers of substrate, and removing excess powder and unfused substrate.
