Patent number: 11374359Abstract: A high voltage electrical connector for electric current connections in vehicles includes a first connector unit and a complementary second connector unit releasably connectable with the first connector unit. A primary locking member is arranged in the first connector unit, and a stationary locking part is arranged in the second connector unit, where the primary locking member is electromagnetically movable between a locked position and an unlocked position. In the locked position, the primary locking member is in locking engagement with the stationary locking part preventing the first connector unit and the second connector unit from being released from each other, and in the unlocked position the primary locking member is disengaged from the stationary locking part allowing the first connector unit and the second connector unit from being released from each other.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2020Date of Patent: June 28, 2022Assignee: NINGBO GEELY AUTOMOBILE RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT CO.Inventors: Linus Hallberg, Anders Eklund

Patent number: 6800061Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and a device for measuring the pressure p in an eye, the so-called intraocular pressure. The method includes a contact body with a known geometry being pressed against the eye with a gradually increasing contact force F and that when the area of deformation of the eye A can be determined, the pressure can be obtained from the relation P=F/A, whereby the frequency characteristic of a contact body associated with a sensor system oscillating in resonance is read, the contact body is pressed against the eye to form a new system oscillating in resonance, the contact force and frequency characteristic for the new system is read, and the change in frequency characteristic is calculated. In this way, the pressure of the eye can be determined since the sought deformation area A is a function of the change A(ƒich ar!).Type: GrantFiled: June 10, 2002Date of Patent: October 5, 2004Assignee: Bioresonator ABInventors: Anders Eklund, Olof Lindahl

Patent number: 6532438Abstract: An improved system for simulating bipolar transistors with a variation in Early voltage as a function of collector/emitter bias voltage is disclosed. The simulation is based upon a standard Gummel-Poon model and is improved by an Early voltage extension, where the constant Early voltage is replaced by an Early voltage that is divided into several regions. The Early voltage is adjusted to fit the actual variations of the measured Early voltage characteristics of a bipolar transistor. The Early voltage within each region is used for calculating the bipolar transistors base charge which then is used to simulate the performance of the bipolar transistor. The regions may be linked together by choice of boundary conditions.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 1998Date of Patent: March 11, 2003Assignee: Telefonaktiebolaget LM EricssonInventors: Håkan Sjödin, Hans Hjelmgren, Lars-Peter Jacobson, Anders Eklund

Patent number: 6391187Abstract: Method of electrolytically continuously treating a material of stainless steel at a current density of 0.1-3 A/cm2, wherein the material is passed through one or more electrolytic cells arranged in series. The cells contain an electrolyte selected from sulphuric acid, a salt thereof, phosphoric acid and nitric acid, and the material is passed through the electrolyte between electrodes arranged in series under the influence of a direct current with alternating polarity. The electrodes are arranged alternately anodic and cathodic and every electrode on one side of said material is matched by an electrode of the same polarity on an opposite side of the material, whereby an oxide surface layer with a thickness of at least 1 micrometer is removed from the material to produce a surface conditioning effect.Type: GrantFiled: July 20, 2000Date of Patent: May 21, 2002Assignee: Avesta Sheffield Aktiebolag (PUBL)Inventors: Anders Eklund, Malin Snis
