Filed:

Nov 21, 1995

Appl. No.:

8/560203

Inventors:

Raymond P. Haluda - South Bend IN
John J. Hoffman - South Bend IN
Charles Lord - Niles MI

Assignee:

Ball Bearing Pump, Inc. - South Bend IN

International Classification:

F04B 2708

US Classification:

417271

Abstract:

A hydraulic power unit combining a number of cylinders using ball bearings to displace hydraulic fluid sequentially with controlled flow to a number of hydraulic actuators. A power unit could combine a minimum of two cylinders through ten or twelve cylinders in a practical hydraulic power unit. The inherent bi-directional nature of this combination of fluid displacing ball bearings, cylinder and porting arrangement offers a unique opportunity to change fluid flow by reversing input drive. The torsional reaction component of the opposed reciprocator drives is utilized to rotate the core cylinder assembly to realign outlet and return fluid flow. This realignment can be used to reverse the fluid circuits or redirect the fluid to other work.

International Classification:

B29C 37/00

Abstract:

A system for post-print processing of 3D printed parts includes an automated breakout system for separating 3D printed parts from printing media in a tray and a vibratory media cleaning system for removing printing media from the 3D printed parts. The automated breakout system includes a tray input mechanism, a bed including a first end disposed adjacent the tray input mechanism, the bed including one or more passageways configured to pass printing media through the bed, a vibration generator coupled to the bed and configured to vibrate the bed, and a part terminator disposed adjacent a second end of the bed. The vibratory media cleaning system include a vibratory bin, a vibration generator coupled to the vibratory bin and configured to vibrate the vibratory bin, an automated parts loader configured to introduce 3D printed parts to be cleaned into the bin, and an automated parts removal mechanism.
