Publication number: 20240139870Abstract: A laser crafting apparatus for directing electromagnetic radiation toward a workpiece may include various features. For example, the laser crafting apparatus may include a material support tray that is removably supported within an internal volume of the laser crafting apparatus. Further, the apparatus may include pre-filter disposed in a ventilation pathway between a workspace region of the internal volume and an extractor fan. The laser crafting apparatus may include a laser carriage assembly that houses a laser module and the assembly may include a lens tray detachably coupled to the support structure of the laser carriage assembly. In various embodiments, the laser crafting apparatus includes a lid having a radiation attenuation layer and a fire suppression layer.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 8, 2022Publication date: May 2, 2024Applicant: Cricut, Inc.Inventors: Sterling Kingdon, Joe Martin, Andrew James Yuill, Kurt Stalsberg, Tanner Hesterman, Richard Petty, Kyle Kenneth Johnson, Devin Higgs Anderson, Muchuan Chen, Cole Chamberlain, Adam Worsham, Colter Leys, Everett Sidney Kettle, Marc Korbuly, Stephan Clark, Jesse Anderegg, Chloe Georgiades

Patent number: 11786906Abstract: System, heaters, and heat transfer devices are disclosed. For example, a system for performing polymerase chain reaction includes a support member configured to receive a sample vessel and a heater that is positioned to affect a temperature of the sample vessel. The system additionally includes a heat transfer device disposed between the heater and the sample vessel. The heat transfer device illustratively includes anisotropic fibers axially aligned parallel to one another and positioned to conduct heat from the at least one heater toward the sample vessel in the axial direction of the anisotropic fibers. An exemplary heater includes a body defining one or more channels, a heating element positioned in the one or more channels, and retention members adjacent the one or more channels. At least a portion of the heating element is mechanically interlocked with the channel by deforming the retention members into a closed position.Type: GrantFiled: April 14, 2017Date of Patent: October 17, 2023Assignee: Biofire Defense, LLCInventors: David E. Jones, Michael Bills, Aaron D. Wernerehl, Anson Cole Chamberlain
