Patent number: 8252223Abstract: An integrated system and method of integrating fluid dispensing technologies (e.g., direct-write (DW)) with rapid prototyping (RP) technologies (e.g., stereolithography (SL)) without part registration comprising: an SL apparatus and a fluid dispensing apparatus further comprising a translation mechanism adapted to translate the fluid dispensing apparatus along the Z-, Y- and Z-axes. The fluid dispensing apparatus comprises: a pressurized fluid container; a valve mechanism adapted to control the flow of fluid from the pressurized fluid container; and a dispensing nozzle adapted to deposit the fluid in a desired location. To aid in calibration, the integrated system includes a laser sensor and a mechanical switch. The method further comprises building a second part layer on top of the fluid deposits and optionally accommodating multi-layered circuitry by incorporating a connector trace.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 2009Date of Patent: August 28, 2012Assignees: Board of Regents, The University of Texas System, Sandia Corporation, Operator of Sandia National LaboratoriesInventors: Francisco Medina, Ryan Wicker, Jeremy A. Palmer, Don W. Davis, Bart D. Chavez, Phillip L. Gallegos

Patent number: 7767931Abstract: A process for generating nanoscale particles of energetic materials, such as explosive materials, using ultrashort-pulse laser irradiation. The use of ultrashort laser pulses in embodiments of this invention enables one to generate particles by laser ablation that retain the chemical identity of the starting material while avoiding ignition, deflagration, and detonation of the explosive material.Type: GrantFiled: June 12, 2007Date of Patent: August 3, 2010Assignee: Sandia CorporationInventors: Eric J. Welle, Alexander S. Tappan, Jeremy A. Palmer

Patent number: 7419630Abstract: A preferred embodiment provides, for example, a system and method of integrating fluid media dispensing technology such as direct-write (DW) technologies with rapid prototyping (RP) technologies such as stereolithography (SL) to provide increased micro-fabrication and micro-stereolithography. A preferred embodiment of the present invention also provides, for example, a system and method for Rapid Prototyping High Density Circuit (RPHDC) manufacturing of solderless connectors and pilot devices with terminal geometries that are compatible with DW mechanisms and reduce contact resistance where the electrical system is encapsulated within structural members and manual electrical connections are eliminated in favor of automated DW traces. A preferred embodiment further provides, for example, a method of rapid prototyping comprising: fabricating a part layer using stereolithography and depositing thermally curable media onto the part layer using a fluid dispensing apparatus.Type: GrantFiled: April 22, 2005Date of Patent: September 2, 2008Assignee: Sandia CorporationInventors: Jeremy A. Palmer, Donald W. Davis, Bart D. Chavez, Phillip L. Gallegos, Ryan B. Wicker, Francisco R. Medina

Patent number: 6061230Abstract: A panelboard/switchboard assembly for accommodating bolt-on modules, plug-in modules and lugs. The panelboard/switchboard includes vertical, edge forward bus bars having a plurality of openings formed therein. The edge forward alignment allows plug-in modules to be mounted to the bus bars. The openings in the bus bars receive bolts for mounting straps to the bus bars and for mounting lugs to the bus bars. The openings have a shape having at least one linear element and receive a bolt having an anti-rotation portion with a similar shape. The interference between the opening and the anti-rotation portion of the bolt prevents the straps, and the modules connected to the straps, from rotating.Type: GrantFiled: December 8, 1997Date of Patent: May 9, 2000Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventors: Kevin D. Mazzella, Kevin F. Nolan, Rick A. Vonrotz, Thomas F. Vrnak, Melanie A. Lewis, Grady W. Broadnax, Jr., Robert R. Leclair, Robert B. Wallace, Jeremy Palmer, Hamon L. Craft

Patent number: 5625531Abstract: A Motor control center containing so-called "pilot" devices along with motor contactors and circuit interrupters mounts the pilot devices on a bracket that is received within the control center access door. The bracket is arranged to interact with the control center access door to automatically rotate the bracket in one direction when the access door is opened and to rotate the bracket in the opposite direction when the access door is closed.Type: GrantFiled: October 25, 1995Date of Patent: April 29, 1997Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventors: Valerie R. Padilla, Tomas B. R. Mendez, Jeremy A. Palmer, Kevin F. Nolan
