  • Publication number: 20220152929
    Abstract: An additive manufactured part is formed as a solid body of material including additive manufacturing powder, binder material supporting the powder in the shape of the solid body, and strengthening resin infused within the solid body. The additive manufacturing powder can be sand. The infused resin can be a two-part resin wherein an inert gas is added to the mixture of the two parts of the two-part resin during mixing. The infused resin can be infused inwardly from the peripheral surface of the solid body and can penetrate partially or fully through the thickness of the solid body.

  • Patent number: 9368908
    Abstract: An electrical terminal assembly includes at least one terminal, at least one terminal seal, and a terminal retainer. The terminal has a head and a shank, and the shank is configured to be received by a structure having an aperture. The terminal seal is configured to receive and engage the shank, and the shank is configured to engage the structure proximate the aperture. The terminal seal cooperates with the shank and the structure to resist ingress of contaminants into the aperture. The terminal retainer is configured to receive and selectably engage the head of the terminal and to electrically insulate the head. The terminal retainer is further configured to secure the terminal against rotation.
