  • Patent number: 11155003
    Abstract: A method for the layered production of a green body (10) from powdery material, including insert elements which are placed at defined positions in the powdery material, in which the green body (10) is segmented in a building direction (16) into N, N?2 consecutive, cylindrical cross-sectional areas (11, 12, 13, 14, 15) made up of a two-dimensional cross-sectional surface and a layer thickness. Setting areas for the insert elements are defined in the cross-sectional areas of the green body (10) which include the defined positions for the insert elements, and loose powder particles surrounding the setting elements are at least partially bonded to each other before the insert elements are placed into the powdery material.

  • Patent number: 11104031
    Abstract: A method for the layered production of a green body from powdery or paste-like material, including cutting elements based on three-dimensional data of the green body, the green body being segmented in a building direction into N (N?2) consecutive cylindrical cross-sectional areas made up of a two-dimensional cross-sectional surface perpendicular to the building direction and a layer thickness in parallel to the building direction, including the method steps: the cross-sectional areas of the green body are each divided into material areas, and setting areas, in which the cutting elements are situated; the material areas in the building direction are applied to a building plane situated perpendicularly to the building direction, until at least one cavity formed by one setting area or by multiple consecutive setting areas in the building direction, has the necessary insert height for placing the cutting elements; and at least one cutting element is placed into the cavities having the necessary insert height for

  • Patent number: 10823219
    Abstract: A thread-forming screw has a shank which, in a front region of the shank, has a tip for insertion into a bore in a substrate, and in a rear region of the shank, has a drive for transmitting a torque to the shank. The shank has a spiral-shaped groove and a thread spiral which is inserted into the spiral-shaped groove. The spiral-shaped groove has a front flank and a rear flank disposed opposite the front flank. The front flank, at least regionally, has a different part flank angle than the rear flank.

  • Publication number: 20050247447
    Abstract: The present invention is an improvement in the design of a perforating gun to perforate the casing and rock formations in oil and gas wells. Perforating guns are cylindrical vessels with explosive charges at specified intervals designed to shoot perpendicularly outwardly through the vessel, perforating the casing and into the rock formation. As most wells are generally straight and most formations are relatively flat, the perforations are horizontal in the same direction as the bedding plane of the rock formations. The present invention is to angle the explosive charges so as to cause the perforation to shoot at an angle to horizontal and across the bedding planes of the rock formations. The angled perforations can result in improved completions in stratified reservoirs and fractured reservoirs by contacting all the stratified layers for production and contacting more of the fractures for production.
