Peter-Juergen Winkler 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: 7597770
    Abstract: This invention relates to the field of metallurgy, in particular to high strength weldable alloys with low density, of aluminium-copper-lithium system. These alloys can be used in air- and spacecraft engineering. The alloy comprises copper, lithium, zirconium, scandium, silicon, iron, beryllium, and at least one element from the group including magnesium, zinc, manganese, germanium, cerium, yttrium, titanium. A method for fabricating semiproducts is also provided.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 23, 2008
    Date of Patent: October 6, 2009
    Assignees: EADS Deutschland GmbH, All Russian Institute of Aviation Materials VIAM

  • Publication number: 20050271543
    Abstract: This invention relates to the field of metallurgy, in particular to high strength weldable alloy with low density, of aluminium-copper-lithium system. Said invention can be used in air- and spacecraft engineering. The suggested alloy comprises copper, lithium, zirconium, scandium, silicon, iron, beryllium, and at least one element from the group including magnesium, zinc, manganese, germanium, cerium, yttrium, titanium. Also there is suggested the method for fabrication of semiproducts' which method comprising heating the as-cast billet prior to rolling, hot rolling, solid solution treatment and water quenching, stretching and three-stage artificial ageing.

  • Patent number: 6461566
    Abstract: An aluminum-based alloy having the following composition, % w/w: Lithium 1.5-1.9 Magnesium 4.1-6.0 Zinc 0.1-1.5 Zirconium 0.05-0.3  Manganese 0.01-0.8  Hydrogen 0.9 × 10−5-4.5 × 10−5 and at least one element selected from the following group: Beryllium 0.001-0.2  Yttrium 0.01-0.5 Scandium 0.01-0.3 Aluminum Remainder The process of heat treating the alloy includes the steps of quenching the alloy from a temperature of 400-500° C. in cold water or air, stretched-adjusting it to increase ductility up to 0 2 %, and a three stage heat treatment, in which in stage 1 the alloy is heated at 80-90° C. over the course of 3-12 h, in stage 2 it is heated at 110-185° C. over the course of 10-58 h, and in stage 3 it is heated at 90-110° C. for 14 h, or at a cooling rate of 2-8° C. C/h.
