3D PRINTED RADIO FREQUENCY ABSORBER - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240047892 titled '3D PRINTED RADIO FREQUENCY ABSORBER
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a system for producing a 3D printed radio frequency (RF) absorber. The system includes a computer that generates a computer model and a 3D printer. The 3D printer has an extruder controlled by a motor, which is directed by the computer to deposit melted plastic filament loaded with an RF absorber material in computer-controlled patterns based on the computer model. This process creates an RF absorber with a custom profile of desired RF absorption properties and desired dielectric properties.
- The system includes a computer and a 3D printer.
- The computer generates a computer model.
- The 3D printer has an extruder controlled by a motor.
- The computer directs the motor to deposit melted plastic filament loaded with an RF absorber material.
- The plastic filament is deposited in computer-controlled patterns based on the computer model.
- The resulting RF absorber has a custom profile of desired RF absorption properties and desired dielectric properties.
Potential Applications:
- RF shielding in electronic devices
- Antenna design and optimization
- Electromagnetic compatibility testing
Problems Solved:
- Traditional RF absorbers are often limited in terms of shape and customization.
- Producing RF absorbers with desired properties can be time-consuming and expensive.
- The system allows for the production of RF absorbers with custom profiles and desired properties in a more efficient and cost-effective manner.
Benefits:
- Customizable RF absorbers for specific applications
- Faster and more cost-effective production of RF absorbers
- Improved performance and efficiency of electronic devices with RF shielding
Original Abstract Submitted
described is a system for producing a three-dimensional (3d) printed radio frequency (rf) absorber. the system includes a computer configured to produce a computer model and a 3d printer. the 3d printer has an extruder controlled by a motor directed by the computer to deposit melted plastic filament loaded with a rf absorber material in computer controlled patterns according to the computer model to produce a rf absorber having a custom profile of desired rf absorption properties and desired dielectric properties.
