  • Publication number: 20190363564
    Abstract: An electronic lock structure using a wireless charging device contains: a power supply unit and an electronic lock unit. The power supply unit includes a variable-frequency drive and an AC/DC transformer. The electronic lock unit includes a battery and a rectification circuit, wherein the rectification circuit electrically outputs power of alternative current by way of a power receiving coil. When the power receiving coil is close to the power output coil, the power supply outputs the power to the electronic lock unit by using magnetic flux and to supply the power to the battery, thus charging the battery. When the power receiving coil is away from the power output coil, the power output coil does not conduct the power to the power receiving coil.

  • Patent number: 10316643
    Abstract: A method, system and computer-readable medium for obtaining a temperature profile of a wellbore is disclosed. Raw temperature data are obtained from the wellbore using a distributed temperature sensing system. The raw temperature data includes noise. A numerical decomposition is performed on the raw temperature data within a dynamic window in a measurement space of the raw temperature data to obtain decomposition terms of order of first order and higher. An adaptive filter is applied to the decomposition terms of first order and higher within the dynamic window to reduce noise from the decomposition terms of first order and higher. The filtered decomposition terms of first order and higher are used to obtain a temperature profile of the wellbore.

The UV LED modules may be any size or shape depending on the power requirements of a given curing application. The LED chips or the groups of LED chips used for the above UV LED modules may be in other wavelengths for other applications. The UV LED modules have excellent heat dissipation because the LED chips or groups of LED chips are directly mounted on metal extrusion. The LED modules also have a single optical lens system between the LED chips and the surrounding ambient air.

  • Publication number: 20180359195
    Abstract: System and method of network packet switching using a table representation of a trie data structure to identify a timestamp (TS) range (or time range) for a received packet based on the packet timestamp (TS). The trie data structure is programmed with a plurality of predetermined time ranges. Each node in the trie data structure corresponds to a TS prefix and is associated with a corresponding predetermined time range. A search engine in the network switch can use the packet TS as a key to traverse the trie data structure and thereby matching the packet TS to a predetermined time range according to a Longest Prefix Match (LPM) process. Provided with the TS ranges of the incoming packets, various applications and logic engines in the network switch can accordingly process the packets, such as determining a new destination IP address and performing channel switch accordingly.
