Abstract: The present invention provides a rechargeable lithium-ion battery with an in situ thermally-curable electrolyte. The thermally-curable electrolyte is cured from the thermally-curable electrolyte precursor solution including a first crosslinking agent, a second crosslinking agent, an initiator, an electrolyte solvent, an electrolyte salt, one or more electrolyte additives, and one or more monomers or a monomer polymerization product. The viscosity of the thermally-curable electrolyte precursor solution is below 200 cps such that the thermally-curable electrolyte precursor solution is infiltrated within the separator and the pores inside the cathode and anode layers then cured to form porous separator and porous electrodes fully permeated with a solid electrolyte.

Abstract: The present invention provides a lithium metal battery having a lithium metal electrode including a cathode, an anode, a separator positioned between the cathode and the anode, an electrolyte, and a lithium metal negative electrode. The lithium metal negative electrode includes a lithium reactive metal layer, the lithium reactive metal layer being formed on a support conductive layer. A dendrite-suppressing coating is formed over the lithium reactive metal layer; the dendrite-suppressing coating is a displacement-reacted metal including silver reacted from decomposition of a silver salt and having an interface reaction product formed from a reaction between the silver salt and the lithium reactive metal layer. The interface reaction product is positioned between the displacement-reacted metal layer and the lithium reactive metal layer. The dendrite suppressing coating permits lithium metal ions to permeate the coating to react electrolytically in an overall battery reaction.

Abstract: A supporting mechanism with a rotating function is applied to a camera apparatus and includes a casing, a holder, an inner structural component and a damping component. The casing has a first opening. The inner structural component can be rotated relative to the casing. The holder is movably disposed inside the inner structural component and passes through the first opening. The damping component is disposed between the casing and the inner structural component.

Abstract: The present invention provides an alcohol extract of Ajuga taiwanensis Nakai ex Murata exhibits significant effects on inhibiting the senescence in human WI-38 lung fibroblasts and human dermal fibroblasts. Moreover, the alcohol extract of A. taiwanensis is able to suppress the expression of the cofilin-1, a protein involved in actin dynamics and cell morphology and found to be increased in senescent cells. Suppression effect of cell senescence by this herb extract is more efficient in mild concentration without over-inhibition of cell viability and growth.

Abstract: Devices, systems and methods of controlling movement of a host mechanical system using inertial forces imparted by an augmentable or morphable appendage. Such appendages are attached to the host mechanical system such that augmentation or morphing of the appendage to move a mass of the appendage from an extended to a retracted configuration imparts inertial forces to the supporting structure. Augmentation/morphing is controlled and coordinated such that imparted inertial forces facilitate a desired movement of the mechanical system. The imparted forces can include translation forces and/or rotational forces along one or more axes. The augmentation or morphing of the appendage can be performed concurrently with separately controlled coordinated movement of the appendage to facilitate a desired movement of the mechanical system. Such appendages can include, but are not limited to, telescoping and/or folding designs.

Abstract: A charging system with an enhanced charging efficiency has two connectors each having multiple connection points, which are connected between multiple chargers and multiple rechargeable batteries. The chargers are connected to one of the connectors through multiple first connection wire sets. The other connector is connected to the rechargeable batteries through multiple second connection wire sets. Output terminals of the chargers and the positive and negative terminals of the rechargeable batteries are respectively connected to the connectors. Thus, the chargers receive power through a power input port and output power converted thereby to the rechargeable batteries through single-port connection of the connectors in a one-to-one fashion to achieve the purpose of simultaneously and efficiently charging multiple rechargeable batteries and providing operational convenience because of the easy and convenient connection of the connectors.

The first/second combining portions are respectively disposed around the first/second terminal sets. The second combining portion is rotatably combined with the first combining portion so that the cladding cover is switched relative to the folding cover between a first position and a second position.
