Abstract: A silicon-carbon containing electrode material includes a porous carbon structure including pores, and a silicon-containing coating formed on the porous carbon structure. A volume ratio of mesopores is 70% or more based on a total pore volume of the porous carbon structure. A weight ratio of silicon is 30 wt % or more based on a total weight of the electrode material. A high-capacity secondary battery is effectively implemented by using silicon-carbon containing electrode material.

Abstract: A scrubber system may include a scrubber housing including a vertically extended cleaning space, an inflow chamber coupled to a bottom portion of the scrubber housing, and first and second inflow portions, each of which is configured to supply a gas into the inflow chamber. The inflow chamber may include a mixing space, and the mixing space may be connected to the cleaning space. The first inflow portion may include a first connection pipe coupled to the inflow chamber to provide a first connection path and the second inflow portion may include a second connection pipe coupled to the inflow chamber to provide a second connection path. The first and second connection paths may be extended toward the mixing space in opposite directions, respectively, and may be connected to opposite portions of the mixing space, respectively.

Abstract: An electronic equipment supplying power to an external device in response to unique identification information provided by the external device. The electronic equipment includes a power supply supplying power to the external device and a controller controlling the power supply to the external device. Basic power is initially supplied to the external device when the external device is connected to the electronic equipment and additional power may be supplied to the device based on the unique identification information provided by the external device.

Abstract: A heat dissipation fan includes a casing having a bottom wall and a side wall extending from the bottom wall and defining an open top of the casing. The side wall itself defines a side opening. A rotary fan assembly is housed in the casing and is rotatably supported on the bottom wall. The fan assembly includes fan blades that are spaced from the bottom wall of the casing whereby a gap is formed therebetween. Air is drawn into the casing by the fan blades via the open top of the casing and driven out of the casing through the side opening. A stuffing pad is arranged in the gap and positioned on the bottom wall to reduce the gap wherein air flowing to the back side of the fan blades is limited and turbulence induced thereby is alleviated. The stuffing pad is made of a soft material whereby damage may not occur on the fan blades when the fan blades impact the stuffing pad.

Abstract: A shaftless cooling fan is comprised of a fan body pivotally mounted on a fan base through a configured shaft. The fan base further comprises a plurality of vents, an electrical device for driving the fan body, a recess in its top and bottom ends for positioning a shaft end respectively, and a plurality of electromagnets surrounding the recess in the bottom end. The fan body is rotatably positioned in the fan base by placing the shaft ends in respective recesses, and there is also a plurality of permanent magnets aligned surrounding the lower shaft end, in which every permanent magnet is comprised of a magnetic N-zone, an S-zone, and a Neutral zone, and repeatedly structured. Every electromagnet is controlled by the electrical device to form magnetic zones corresponding to the N-zone, S-zone, and Neutral zone of each the permanent magnet, such that each permanent magnet is driven to rotate the fan body by changing the magnetic zones in each electromagnet.

Abstract: An electronic device, such as a notebook computer, includes a main board housed in a casing that is at least partly constituted by a conductive member. A grounding path is established between the main board and the casing by arranging a resilient grounding tab, made of a conductive material, between the main board and the casing. The grounding tab has a U- or V-shape including first and second limbs. The first limb is positioned on the main board with a free end of the second limb engaging the casing and maintaining secured engagement with the casing by means of elastic deformation thereof. The first limb has legs perpendicularly extending therefrom for inserting into through holes defined in the main board. The legs are soldered to the main board by through-hole techniques to fixedly mount the grounding tab to the main board. A secured grounding path is thus established between the main board and the casing for suppressing electromagnetic interference of the electronic device.

Abstract: A cooling fan is characterized in jointing the bottom edges of all the fan leaves of a fan body to a common baseplate closely without any clearance. Therefore, turbulence could be thoroughly eliminated for promoting cooling efficiency when the fan body is driven to rotate.
