Abstract: A pressurizing apparatus for a battery tray is provided. The pressurizing apparatus includes a base, a compressive force generation module, a fixing module, and a controller. The compressive force generation module and the fixing module are arranged on the base. The controller is electrically connected to the compressive force generation module and the fixing module. The controller is configured to control the fixing module to be coupled between the compressive force generation module and the battery tray. The controller is configured to control the compressive force generation module to apply a compressive force to a pressure-bearing plate of the battery tray, so that the pressure-bearing plate pressurizes a pressurizing plate of the battery tray, thereby forming a containment on the batteries on a plurality of partition plates of the battery tray.

Abstract: A motion synchronized multi-tier pallet rack and a battery formation apparatus are provided. The pallet rack includes a fixation rack, two movable frames, and two actuators. The movable frames are coupled to two corresponding sides of the fixation rack and each includes telescopic arms, a motor, and a drive rod. The actuators are disposed on other the two corresponding sides of the fixation rack to drive the movable frames to move toward or away from each other. The telescopic arms are kinematically connected to the motor through the drive rod to extend from or retract into the movable frame. The battery formation apparatus includes a motion synchronized multi-tier pallet rack, a conveyor module, a formation cabinet, and a controller. The conveyor module carries a battery module. The controller controls the pallet rack to obtain the battery module from the conveyor module and place the battery module in the formation cabinet.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method of sampling pixels of an image. The method includes: determining a target area on the image; and sampling pixels from the target area, comprising: sorting background pixels based on a first spectral feature and divide them into a first number of groups; sorting target pixels based on a second spectral feature and divide them into a second number of groups; sampling background pixels from each of the first number of groups; and sampling target pixels from each of the second number of groups.

Abstract: A liquid crystal display driving method is disclosed, where an interlaced image data is received or generated to generate an odd driving signal and an even driving signal, an odd number of gates and an even number of gates are driven according to the odd driving signal and the even driving signal at different signal frame periods, and sources are driven to inverse in their polarities when the driven gates are switched from the ones having the odd number to the even number. Since an alternating number of the sources is reduced, the efficacy of simultaneous promoted power saving and frame quality is achieved.

Abstract: A system for detecting post-operative retained foreign bodies has a data storage unit adapted to receive and store a reference image of a surgical object, and a data processor in communication with the data storage unit. The data processor is configured to receive an image of an internal region of a patient and to receive the reference image from the data storage unit, and the data processor is configured to perform operations based on an algorithm to compare the reference image to at least a portion of the image of the internal region of the patient and determine whether a retained foreign body is present in the patient.

Abstract: The invention relates to an offshore installation method of a wind power generator and its fabrication segments. A prefabricated wind power generator is finished at a first location, and then carried by a ship to a second location for installation, largely saving installation time. With a tower inserted down through a base to shrink height of the generator, the ship can not only effectively diminish shaking posed by wind and sea waves, advancing steadiness of delivery, but also be one with smaller tonnage to save cost.

Abstract: A pressure relief device includes a main body and at least two air control units. The main body has at least one passage therein and two outlets formed at upper and lower ends of the passage. A lid is pivotally connected to each of the outlets. The two air control units are each disposed in the passage close to the lid. An air control device drives the air control units to open/close the lid which is adapted to open/close the passage.
