  • Publication number: 20240158324
    Abstract: A method to make primary alcohols, carboxylic acids, amines, and other value-added chemicals from plastic waste. The method includes the steps of pyrolyzing plastic waste to yield pyrolysis oil; hydroformylating the pyrolysis oil in the absence of any added co-reactants to yield a mixture comprising aldehydes; and hydrogenating, oxidizing, aminating, or aldolizing the mixture to yield a product comprising primary alcohols, carboxylic acids, amines, or larger (>C10) chemicals with carbonyl function groups.

  • Patent number: 11920565
    Abstract: A method for determining improved control parameters of a number of wind turbines of a wind park is provided. The method considers the impact of individual turbine manufacturing tolerances on the turbine performance, thereby avoiding under-utilization of those wind turbines. The method includes the steps of: receiving, by an interface, one or more actual manufacturing tolerances of characteristic values for each of the number of wind turbines; determining, by a processing unit, for each of the number of wind turbines a power versus wind speed map which is calculated from a given turbine model with the one or more actual manufacturing tolerances of the respective wind turbines as input parameters; and deriving, by the processing unit, the control parameters for each of the number of wind turbines from their associated power versus wind speed map.

  • Publication number: 20140312832
    Abstract: A slidable charging transmitter position adjusting structure for a wireless charging device includes at least one through slot formed in a selected position of a cover or a base of a wireless charging device to extend in a push direction, and at least one guide section formed on a bottom plate. A slidable seat includes a push section and counterpart guide structures. The slidable seat is slidably coupled to the guide section of the base through the counterpart guide structures so that the push section is operable by means of pushing to have the slidable seat moving in the receiving space of the base in the push direction.

  • Publication number: 20030083111
    Abstract: A compact mobile phone device includes a dial control module for attaching to a user's waist belt and a voice module for wearing on the user's one ear. The dial control module includes a function keypad and a radio transmission module. The voice module includes a high-frequency signal processing circuit, a voice processing circuit, a sounding unit, a voice-receiving unit, and a radio receiver module. The high-frequency signal processing circuit establishes a communication link, and the voice processing circuit enables the user to talk with a remote user via the established communication link. The dial control module and the voice module may also be integrated in a single compact mobile phone device.

  • Publication number: 20020154008
    Abstract: A decelerating inertia detector for detecting deceleration inertia energy of a moving vehicle is disclosed. The decelerating inertia detector includes a casing mounted on the moving vehicle, an inertia detecting mechanism for detecting a decelerating inertia energy of the moving vehicle and thereby generating a decelerating output signal, and an alarming means for generating an alarm signal. The inertia detecting mechanism includes a guiding slot formed in a casing, a rolling member movably contained in the guiding slot, and a switch unit arranged at the front open end of the guiding slot. The rolling member rolls to the front open end of the guiding slot when a deceleration inertia energy is applied to the decelerating inertia detector, and thereby collides the switch unit to generate the decelerating output signal.

  • Patent number: 6377025
    Abstract: A mobile phone battery pack with a recording device for memorizing total recharged number of times is disclosed. The recording device includes a battery charging detecting circuit, a reference clock generating circuit, a central processing unit, a recharged times recording unit. When placing the mobile phone battery in the battery charger for recharging, the total recharged number of times recorded in the recharged times recording unit will be increased by one. Preferably, the mobile phone battery pack incorporates with a display type battery charger with a display. The battery pack is provided with a data output terminal and a series data output device. So, the total recharged number of times memorized in the battery are transmitted to the battery charger through the data output terminal and the recharged number of times is displayed on the display of the battery charger.

  • Patent number: 6230860
    Abstract: A mobile phone battery charger with a power cord winding mechanism is disclosed. The battery charger is formed with a power cord receiving chamber in which a winding reel is disposed. An upper end surface of the winding reel is disposed with two contacts connected with the power cord. One contact is disposed at the center of the upper end surface of the winding reel, while the other contact is formed as a circumferential contact around the central contact. A pair of inner terminals of the power cord are respectively soldered at the two contacts, and a pair of outer terminals of the power cord are extended through a passage out of the battery charger. Two resilient plates extend from a diaphragm of the battery charger into the receiving chamber. The resilient plates respectively contact with the two contacts. The winding reel is fitted around a projecting shaft formed on the bottom of the receiving chamber.
