| 20090042492 | Fluid system and method for thin kerf cutting and in-situ recycling - A fluid jet system for achieving a kerf width less than 0.015 inches is provided. In one embodiment, the system includes an orifice mount having a high-pressure fluid bore and an abrasive bore configured to communicate an abrasive mixture in form of a paste or foam to at least a portion of the high-pressure fluid bore. The system further includes a pressure-generating bore and a thin kerf mixing tube respectively provided toward opposing longitudinal ends of the mount body, minimizing a distance therebetween. A method of in-situ recycling of abrasives in the high-pressure fluid jet system includes catching the exiting abrasive-fluid mixture in a catching device, filtering the mixture in a filtering device, and directly pumping the filtered abrasive-fluid mixture to the mixing area without requiring conditioning of the mixture to remove liquids. | 02-12-2009 |
| 20100323588 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DRYING GRIT USED FOR ABRASIVE BLASTING - A method and method for processing grit used for abrasive blasting may include receiving grit blasted onto a surface, where the grit includes moisture content. Air in which the grit being recycled is being processed may be heated. The moisture content may be evaporated from the grit using the heated air to produce dry recycled grit. The dried recycled grit may be stored. | 12-23-2010 |
| 20130157545 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING A MODULAR ABRASIVE BLASTING AND RECOVERY SYSTEM - A modular abrasive particle blasting system comprises an abrasive blast assembly including at least one blast vessel for delivering blast particles to an abrasive blasting system. The abrasive blast assembly is mounted within a first skid. An abrasive recycling assembly includes at least one vacuum hopper for receiving grit retrieved from an abrasive blasting process. The abrasive recycling assembly is mounted within a second skid. The first and second skids comprise mounting members at a top section and a bottom section of each of the first and second skids to permit mounting of the first and second skids in alternate stacked arrangements whereby the first skid is selective mounted above and below the second skid. The same skid principal may be used to provide a variety of skids, including blast skid, vacuum skid, recycle skid, storage skid, air dryer skid, dust collector skid and or dehumidification skid. | 06-20-2013 |
| 20140030963 | ABRASIVE WATER-JET MACHINING DEVICE - An object of the present invention is to increase the collection rate of an abrasive fluid when cutting a workpiece whose plate thickness changes in a longitudinal direction (vertical direction) and/or a width direction (horizontal direction) and to improve the worker's working environment. An abrasive water-jet machining device includes an abrasive nozzle assembly ( | 01-30-2014 |
| 20140273768 | WATERJET SYSTEMS HAVING SECTIONAL CATCHER TANKS AND RELATED DEVICES, SYSTEMS AND METHODS - Waterjet systems having sectional catcher tanks and related devices, systems, and methods are disclosed. A waterjet system configured in accordance with a particular embodiment includes a fluid-pressurizing device, a cutting head operably connected to the fluid-pressurizing device, and catcher tank. The cutting head is configured to direct a waterjet toward a workpiece via the waterjet outlet. The catcher tank has an internal volume configured to hold a pool of fluid such that the fluid is positioned relative to the workpiece so as to dissipate kinetic energy of the waterjet. The catcher tank includes a first tank section, a second tank section, and a sealing member. The first and second tank sections have first and second coupling surfaces, respectively, and are configured to be detachably coupled via the first and second coupling surfaces, respectively, to form a water-tight junction with the sealing member operably positioned within the junction. | 09-18-2014 |
| 20160144479 | Containment Housing for Airblasting Pipes and Similar Objects - A containment system the operator to contain, see, blast, and reclaim the grit or abrasives used to strip external surfaces of a pipe, rod, or substantially cylindrical object. The containment chamber or housing is constructed of sections that can be quickly assembled to encapsulate such objects. The grit reclamation or recovery system of the invention is operable to be used in connection with objects that are positioned in a vertical, horizontal, or angled orientation. The containment housing is assembled from sections to encapsulate pipe to contain the dust and grit while blasting. The containment housing has inflatable seals that seal and grip around the pipe. Nozzle control and access as well as vision access are provided to allow the operator to control where the pipe will be blasted and the intensity of the blast. The containment system has a centrifugal grit reclamation design that will work in vertical, horizontal and angular orientation. | 05-26-2016 |

| 20090098810 | ABRASIVE-RECOVERY MECHANISM IN BLASTING MACHINE - A bottom wall surface of a blasting chamber of a blasting machine provided with hoppers for recovering an abrasive is formed at a lowest possible position. A cabinet | 04-16-2009 |
| 20140329444 | APPARATUS FOR PROCESSING AN OBJECT BY PROJECTING SHOTS THEREON - To provide a apparatus for processing an object by projecting shots thereon that can be downsized and can use shots of appropriate sizes. A pressure tank | 11-06-2014 |
| 20150290770 | SHOT PROCESSING MACHINE - Provided is a shot peening device with which recovered projection material and foreign bodies can be more precisely separated while inhibiting an increase in the size of the device. The shot peening device is provided with: a projector which projects projection material onto a workpiece (W); recovery mechanisms which recover the projection material projected by the projector; and a wind power sorting mechanism in which recovered projection material is allowed to fall freely while an upward air current is applied to the recovered projection material, and foreign bodies included in the recovered projection material are separated from the recovered projection material. | 10-15-2015 |
