Patent number: 11958250Abstract: An additive manufacturing apparatus can include a stage configured to hold one or more cured layers of resin that form a component. A radiant energy device can be operable to generate and project radiant energy in a patterned image. An actuator can be configured to change a relative position of the stage relative to the radiant energy device. A reclamation system can be downstream of the stage and can be configured to remove at least a portion of the resin from a resin support. The reclamation system can include a first collection structure configured to accept a resin support therethrough along a resin support movement direction. A first scraper is positioned within the first collection structure. The first scraper has an elongation axis that is offset from the resin support movement direction by an offset angle that is less than 90 degrees.Type: GrantFiled: June 10, 2022Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventors: Meredith Elissa Dubelman, Christopher David Barnhill, Xi Yang, William Joseph Steele, Brian Thomas Thompson

Publication number: 20240105285Abstract: A reaction pathfinder system can leverage historical chemical reaction data and determine a synthesis route in a reaction network. The reaction pathfinder system can account for various performance criteria of chemical reactions such as a highest yield for a molecule or a minimal number of reaction steps. A reaction pathfinder system receives a user request for a synthesis route including one of a user-specified molecule or a user-specified reaction. The reaction pathfinder system may then query a reaction network that has various synthesis routes and represents reactions of reactants to produce respective molecules. The reaction network may be composed of molecule nodes and reaction nodes. The reaction pathfinder system determines, using the reaction network, the synthesis route from the synthesis routes to fulfill the user's request.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 27, 2022Publication date: March 28, 2024Inventors: Pavel Vácha, Richard Dobis, Ondrej Micka, Nikita Vostrosablin, Martin Spale, Josef Navrátil, Jaroslav Cerman, Brian Lahue, Thomas James Struble, Zhengwei Peng, John Steele Debenham, Danny Asher Bitton, Petr Mejzlik
