US Patent:

53378040, Aug 16, 1994

Filed:

May 6, 1993

Appl. No.:

8/059047

Inventors:

Robert P. Berger - Encino CA
Steven Benson - Simi Valley CA

Assignee:

Belle De St. Claire - Chatsworth CA

International Classification:

B22C 904
B22D 1306
B22D 1310

US Classification:

164287

Abstract:

An adjustable investment mold positioner includes a resilient band bent into a partial cylinder. Opposite ends of the band bound an opening at the side of the cylinder. A mold receiving member made of bent metal has side walls with bent connectors that are attached to the opposite ends of the band. A recess is formed between the side walls for receiving an oval investment mold. The outer cylindrical configuration of the positioner is readily engageable within the cradle of a conventional casting machine which is designed for normally receiving cylindrical investment molds. In this way, oval investment molds can be received in a secure manner within the conventional casting machines.

Appl. No.:

8/388866

Inventors:

Robert P. Berger - Encino CA
Steven Benson - Simi Valley CA

Assignee:

Belle de St. Claire - Chatsworth CA

International Classification:

B25J 1504

US Classification:

294 191

Abstract:

An apparatus for gripping hot investment molds either of the ring type or of the oval type, has a plastic handle with an elongated square tube extending therefrom. A trigger in the handle is connected to a linkage rod which pulls back on a closer frame. Rearwardly extending crossed tails of a pair of jaws are squeezed together by rearward movement of the closer, for closing outwardly extending palms of the jaws around an investment mold. The jaw assembly is removable so that jaws having shapes adapted specifically to engage either an investment ring or an investment oval can be provided.

Abstract:

Methods and apparatus are provided for generating computer 3D models of an object, by registering two or more scans of physical models of an object. The scans may be 3D scans registered by a curve-based registration process. A method is provided for generating a 3D model of a portion of a patient's oral anatomy for use in dental restoration design. Also provided are scanning workflows for scanning physical models of an object to obtain a 3D model.
