  • Publication number: 20210285593
    Abstract: A support for household appliance includes a hydraulic plate which is fixed to the bottom of the household appliance; a sheath, which is fixedly connected with the hydraulic plate; a regulating support, which is arranged in the sheath and is axially movable relative to the sheath; an accommodation chamber, which is formed by the hydraulic plate, the sheath and the regulating support; and a flexible accommodation body, which accommodates a liquid medium and is arranged in the accommodation chamber. The flexible accommodation body extends and retracts to drive the regulating support to axially move in the sheath for leveling under the action of pressure. The hydraulic plate and the sheath can be rapidly, reliably and fixedly connected, the requirements on the strength of connection between the hydraulic plate and the sheath are lowered, and the essential space and height required by the connection are further lowered.

  • Publication number: 20210288499
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method of operating a node of a power distribution system in an optimised manner so as to minimise transmission losses on an external power bus. A power generator feeds in electrical energy via an inverter capable of carrying out Volt/VAR control under the command of an optimiser associated with a supervised learning model such as a support vector machine. This optimisation takes place in two distinct training phases, one in which the supervised learning model is trained, another in which optimal control parameters for the inverter are obtained.
