Patents by Inventor Henning ZUPAN

Henning ZUPAN has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11759847
    Abstract: The invention relates to a binder, which contains water glass and further a phosphate or a borate or both. The invention further relates to a method for constructing molds and cores layer by layer, the molds and cores comprising a construction material mixture, which at least comprises a refractory molding base material, and the binder. In order to produce the molds and cores layer by layer in 3-D printing, the refractory molding base material is applied layer by layer and is selectively printed with the binder layer by layer, and consequently a body corresponding to the molds or cores is constructed and the molds or cores are released after the unbonded construction material mixture has been removed.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10294161
    Abstract: The invention relates to mold material mixtures containing an oxide of aluminum and an oxide of zirconium as particulate mixed metal oxide, in combination with refractory mold base materials and a water glass-based binder system. The mold material mixtures, also in the form of multicomponent systems, are used for the production of molds and cores for the foundry industry.

  • Patent number: 10259035
    Abstract: The invention relates to mold material mixtures containing at least one aluminum oxide in the alpha phase and/or at least one aluminum/silicon mixed oxide, except for aluminum/silicon mixed oxides having a layered silicate structure, as a particulate metal oxide, in combination with refractory mold base materials and a water glass-based binder system. The mold material mixtures are used for the production of molds and cores for the foundry industry.
