Patent number: 10022706Abstract: A composite material type oxygen transport membrane and its preparation method are disclosed. The composite material that is an ionic-electronic mixed conducting material having high ionic conductivity is stirred into slurry and formed into a thin strip-shaped green tape substrate through tape casting to obtain a predetermined half-finished substrate, and then sintered to form the half-finished substrate into a conductive function type oxygen ion conducting substrate, followed by choosing small particle shaped highly catalyzed ionic-electronic mixed conducting material to be evenly adhered to at least one side surface of the conductive function type oxygen ion conducting substrate to form a reductive function type oxygen ion conducting layer. The reductive function type oxygen ion conducting layer and the conductive function type oxygen ion conducting substrate are then bonded to produce a composite material type oxygen transport membrane element.Type: GrantFiled: April 20, 2017Date of Patent: July 17, 2018Assignee: Institute of Nuclear Energy Research Atomic Energy Council, Executive YuanInventors: Ming-Wei Liao, Tai-Nan Lin, Wei-Xin Kao, Chun-Yen Yeh, Hong-Yi Kuo, Yu-Ming Chen

Patent number: 10006140Abstract: A method for dye-free coloring of one-time anodic aluminum oxide surface is revealed. First provide a substrate containing aluminum. The substrate containing aluminum is anodized once at room temperature. The anodizing process includes a step of applying a pulse signal on the substrate containing aluminum for a first period of time. Thus a porous aluminum oxide layer is formed on surface of the substrate containing aluminum. The pulse signal includes a part with positive voltage and a part with negative voltage. Then a metal layer is deposited on the surface of the porous aluminum oxide layer. The porous aluminum oxide layer has a first interference wavelength. Next perform a linear regression of the first interference wavelength versus the first period of time. The absolute value of the slope of the regression line obtained ranges from 1.8 to 38.5. The absolute value is positively correlated with the positive voltage.Type: GrantFiled: July 15, 2016Date of Patent: June 26, 2018Assignee: National Cheng Kung UniversityInventors: Chen-Kuei Chung, Ming-Wei Liao, Bo-Yu Chu, Shu-Hsien Liao, Cheng-Hui Chen

Patent number: 8427829Abstract: A dual directional sliding hinge is mounted in a portable device with a cover, a first base and a second base and has a main panel, a first sliding unit, a second sliding unit. The main panel is attached to the cover. The first sliding unit is attached to the first base. The second sliding unit is attached to the second base. When the first and second sliding units slide at the closing position, the cover and the first and second bases are folded to have a smallest volume. Since the first and second sliding units have different sliding distances when sliding to different directions, the functioning units on the first and second bases are revealed alternatively. Therefore, the user can decide to use different functioning units as desired.Type: GrantFiled: May 6, 2011Date of Patent: April 23, 2013Assignee: Shin Zu Shing Co., Ltd.Inventors: Chia-Hao Hsu, Yu-Feng Lin, Chung-Lin Lee, Ming-Wei Liao
