Patents by Inventor Robert K. Karlicek

Robert K. Karlicek 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: 10094613
    Abstract: An ultraviolet curing module includes a first light source and a second light source. The first light source is configured to emit ultraviolet with a first spectrum. The first spectrum has a first peak wavelength. The second light source is configured to emit ultraviolet with a second spectrum. The second spectrum has a second peak wavelength. Wherein, a difference between the first peak wavelength and the second peak wavelength is greater than 35 nm, and an irradiation range of ultraviolet of the first light source on an irradiated object at least partially overlaps an irradiation range of ultraviolet of the second light source on the irradiated object.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20150060702
    Abstract: An assembly and method for irradiating a surface utilizing a plurality of LEDs in a pattern such that a linear fill factor characterizing such pattern is at least 80% along a focusing direction and/or at least 20% along a direction transverse to said focusing direction, the radiation emitted from the LEDs and reflected onto the surface from a trough reflector.
