Embodiment Construction

[0031] In the following description, reference is made to the accompanying drawings which form a part hereof, and which show by way of illustration specific exemplary embodiments in which the teachings of the invention may be practiced. These embodiments are described in sufficient detail to enable those skilled in the art to practice the teachings of the invention, and it is to be understood that other embodiments may be utilized and changes may be made without departing from the scope of the teachings of the invention. The following description is therefore exemplary only.

[0032]If an element or layer is referred to as being "on", "engaged to", "disengaged from", "connected to" or "coupled to" another element or layer )" another element or layer, the element or layer may be disposed directly on, or joined, connected or connected to, the other element or layer, or intervening elements or layers may be present. In contrast, when an element is referred to as being "directly ...

Abstract

Aspects of the disclosure include apparatuses and systems for rotatably engaging an additive manufacturing build plate. An apparatus according to embodiments of the present disclosure can include: a height adjustable platform; a rotatable member coupled to the height adjustable platform; an alignment member coupled to a first end of the rotatable member; and first and second coupling members each extending from the first radial end of the alignment member wherein the first and second coupling members are oriented substantially parallel to the rotatable member.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to the joining and manipulation of additive manufacturing build plates ("build plates"). Specifically, embodiments of the present invention provide apparatus and systems for providing rotatable engagement of build panels. Background technique [0002] Given the rate of change and improvement in power generation, aerospace, and other fields, a great deal of research has been done on the manufacture of components used in these fields. Traditional methods of manufacturing metal parts typically involve milling or cutting away areas of sheet metal, and then manipulating and altering the cut metal to create a part, a process that can be simulated using computer models, such as drawing software. For example, components that may be made of metal may include wing components installed in turbomachines, such as aircraft engines, or power generation systems. The development of additive manufacturing, also known in the fiel...
