  • Publication number: 20240052820
    Abstract: The present invention provides a piston type compressor and a high-pressure gas station having the compressor. The compressor includes a piston that divides a cylinder into a compression chamber and an intake chamber, and a check valve is installed in a bearing wall thereof, so that the output pressure is allowed to be compressed to a high pressure even when the intake pressure significantly decreases.

  • Patent number: 11248745
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a reinforcement method for a cylindrical high-pressure tank reinforced by FRP prepreg bandage, totally. For that purpose, this invention developed the manufacturing process for the internal metallic tank assembly where its diameter is comparatively large. It is effective for lightening weight of a high-pressure tank.

  • Patent number: 9810194
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a wave activated power generating device that incorporates a support frame; a buoy vertically positioned to rise and fall relative to motion of waves impacting the buoy and the support frame, the buoy being formed with a hollow interior space; a rack and pinion structure operatively connected between the buoy and the support frame such that a pinion element of the rack and pinion structure generates rotating torque by moving along the rack element in response to the buoy rising and falling by the wave motion; and a power generator unit operative connected to the rack and pinion structure to generate electricity in response to rotating torque generated by the pinion element. The rack structure is fixedly connected to at least one vertical surface inside the hollow interior space of the buoy.

  • Patent number: 8917809
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a new manufacturing process for a FRP honeycomb structure where the honeycomb core assembly is arranged parallel to the surface. The honeycomb core is made from FRP prepreg with double structural walls and is manufactured by stiffening using heat and pressure. In a honeycomb core assembly set tank, a plurality of internal tanks are gathered in honeycomb core assembly. An internal tank FRP wall maintains the pressure of the internal tank, while an external FRP wall, heat foamed plastic resin and rigid FRP hull of set tank endure the external shock loading. A honeycomb core structure of six-corner cell can be infinitely arranged, and its structural position is unique. A set tank in which a plurality of internal tanks are gathered into a honeycomb core assembly can be arranged in infinite combinations, such that the total capacity can be extremely large.
