NOZZLE FOR EXTRUDING A MATERIAL RICH IN PROTEIN AND WATER, AS WELL AS AN EXTRUSION MACHINE COMPRISING SUCH A NOZZLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240009909 titled 'NOZZLE FOR EXTRUDING A MATERIAL RICH IN PROTEIN AND WATER, AS WELL AS AN EXTRUSION MACHINE COMPRISING SUCH A NOZZLE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a nozzle design that includes an outer casing and an inner member arranged coaxially. The inner member is mounted rotatably about the axis and extends outside the outer casing to engage with a drive motor. A channel with an annular cross-section is defined between the outer casing and the inner member. Material flows into the channel and moves from the upstream end to the downstream end, where it exits axially.

  • The nozzle includes a temperature-controlled outer casing and an inner member that can rotate.
  • The inner member is mounted inside the outer casing and extends outside to engage with a drive motor.
  • A channel with an annular cross-section is formed between the outer casing and the inner member.
  • Material is pushed through the nozzle and flows into the channel.
  • The material moves through the channel from the upstream end to the downstream end.
  • The material exits the nozzle axially.

Potential Applications:

  • 3D printing: The compact and efficient design of the nozzle could be beneficial for 3D printers, allowing for precise material deposition.
  • Industrial processes: The nozzle could be used in various industrial processes that require controlled material flow and deposition.

Problems Solved:

  • Compact design: The coaxial arrangement of the outer casing and inner member allows for a more compact nozzle design.
  • Efficient material flow: The annular channel ensures smooth and controlled material flow, improving the efficiency of the nozzle.

Benefits:

  • Improved precision: The ability to rotate the inner member allows for better control over the material flow and deposition.
  • Compact design: The compact design of the nozzle saves space and allows for integration into various systems.
  • Efficient material usage: The efficient material flow through the annular channel reduces waste and improves overall efficiency.


Original Abstract Submitted

a nozzle includes a tubular, temperature-controlled outer casing, centered on an axis. for a more compact and efficient design, the nozzle also includes an inner member coaxially arranged inside the outer casing and mounted rotatably about the axis relative to the outer casing, such that a downstream portion of the inner member extends outside the outer casing and engages with a drive motor to rotate about the axis, and such that a channel having an annular cross section and centered on the axis is defined between the outer casing and the inner member. the channel has an upstream end and a downstream end between which the material flows into the channel when it is pushed through the nozzle such that, when the material is pushed through the nozzle, the material moves through the channel from the upstream end to the downstream end whereby the material axially exits the channel.
