Latest Patents
Ukegawa holds a patent for an "Apparatus for manufacturing a three-dimensional shaped object." This apparatus comprises a chamber, a transmission window, a blow-out port, and a cover member. A solidified layer is formed by irradiating a predetermined portion of a material layer with a light beam. This process allows for the sintering of the material in the predetermined portion or a melting and subsequent solidification of the material. The material layer is provided within the chamber, and the transmission window allows the light beam to be transmitted through it. The blow-out port, located around the transmission window, serves to blow out an inert gas toward the interior of the chamber. The cover member, positioned below the blow-out port, has an annular form and surrounds the blow-out port. A gap is provided between the cover member and the transmission window, allowing the inert gas to pass through.
