Patent EP-3661749-A1 (EP)
Inventor: HOUSER KEVIN L
IPC: B29C70/38
Filed: 2018-07-31
Abstract: An additive manufacturing system (101) is capable of extruding poly-fiber strand (114) having a fiber core coated with a polymer with a high range of flexibility in positioning and orienting extruded fibers. Extruded fibers may be laid in a single direction, or may curve or turn to be laid in multiple directions. Structures of devices and components may be created using interconnected extruded strands (214, 216) having interstitial spaces (209) between and around the strands (214, 216). This structure may be infused with resin (222) or polymer using a pressure or vacuum based infusion system. In this manner, durable polymeric objects can be created without requiring expensive molds. Other techniques are also possible, including varying the types of strands used in an object to create areas of the object that will preferentially twist or flex in certain ways or directions, as well as producing objects with zones having different types of resin or no resin.

Abstract: Provided is a concrete vibrator capable of automatically changing the rotational speed of a motor depending on the state of a vibrating tube and suitably avoiding overheating of the motor and a failure due to the motor overheating. 
     Under control of control means 8, the concrete vibrator is operated in a normal mode in which a motor 2 is supplied with driving power having a frequency that can make the motor 2 rotate at a rotational speed suitable for an air bubble removing process, or in an idling mode in which the motor 2 is supplied with driving power having a frequency that can make the motor 2 rotate at a rotational speed lower than the rotational speed in the normal mode. The control means 8 measures, per unit of time, a value of a current that is input to the control means 8 or the motor 2 to record the value in a memory, compares a latest current value to a reference value calculated on the basis of a past measurement value, and further compares an absolute value of the comparison value to a threshold to grasp the state of the vibrating tube so that an operation mode is suitably switched.
