  • Publication number: 20200108359
    Abstract: The present disclosure illustrates a hydrogen water generator, a micro/nano hydrogen bubble water generator and a micro/nano hydrogen bubble water production method. The hydrogen water generator of the present disclosure receives water and hydrogen gas, and five sections are formed inside the main body of the hydrogen water generator, so as to mix the hydrogen gas and the water to produce hydrogen water, without using a compressor to pressure the hydrogen gas. The water flows to a pressuring section via a liquid input section, and is pressured by a pressuring section and the pressured water further flows to a draining and mixing section to be mixed with the hydrogen gas. The water mixed with hydrogen gas flows to a decompressing section to be decompressed, and then passes a hydrogen water output section to output hydrogen water with micro/nano hydrogen bubbles.

  • Patent number: 7262716
    Abstract: An asynchronous sample rate converter interpolates and filters a digital audio input signal to produce a filtered, up-sampled first signal. A FIFO memory receives the first signal and stores samples thereof at locations determined by a write address and presents stored samples from locations determined by a read address. The presented samples are passed through an interpolation and resampling circuit to produce a continuous-time signal which is re-sampled to produce a signal that is up-sampled relative to a desired output. That signal then is filtered and down-sampled to produce the output signal. Sample rate estimating circuitry computes a difference signal representative of a time at which a data sample of the audio input signal is received and a time at which a corresponding audio output sample is required, and address generation circuitry generates the read and write addresses.
