Work Machine - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240261866 titled 'Work Machine
The patent application describes a processing machine with a cover body that separates a machining area from a storage area, an additive manufacturing head, and a head stocker. The additive manufacturing head performs additive manufacturing on a workpiece in the machining area, while the head stocker stores the additive manufacturing head in the storage area. The head stocker includes a head holding part and a swing mechanism part that swings the head holding part centered on a predetermined axis.
- The processing machine has a cover body that separates the machining area from the storage area.
- An additive manufacturing head is used to perform additive manufacturing on a workpiece in the machining area.
- A head stocker is included to store the additive manufacturing head in the storage area.
- The head stocker consists of a head holding part that holds the additive manufacturing head and a swing mechanism part that swings the head holding part centered on a predetermined axis.
Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in manufacturing processes that require additive manufacturing capabilities. - It can be utilized in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and healthcare for prototyping and production of complex parts.
Problems Solved: - The technology streamlines the additive manufacturing process by providing a dedicated storage area for the additive manufacturing head. - It helps improve efficiency and organization in manufacturing operations.
Benefits: - Enhanced additive manufacturing capabilities. - Improved organization and efficiency in manufacturing processes. - Potential cost savings in production operations.
Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Additive Manufacturing Processing Machine This technology can be commercially applied in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and healthcare for prototyping and production of complex parts. It can also be used in research institutions and educational settings for additive manufacturing research and development.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the swing mechanism part of the head stocker contribute to the efficiency of the additive manufacturing process? 2. What are the potential cost savings associated with using this processing machine in manufacturing operations?
