  • Patent number: 11928824
    Abstract: An approach is provided in which the approach receives an image that includes multiple image points and constructs a plane in the image based on a first subset of the plurality of image points. The approach identifies a second subset of the image points that belong to the plane and are not part of the first subset of image points, and removes the first subset of image points and the second subset of image points form the image points. The approach annotates the remaining subset of image points in the image.

  • Patent number: 11920157
    Abstract: Applications of butylidenephthalide (BP), comprising the use of BP in providing a kit for promoting differentiation of stem cells into brown adipose cells, and the use of BP in preparing a medicament, wherein the medicament is used for inhibiting the accumulation of white adipose cells, promoting the conversion of white adipose cells into brown adipose cells, inhibiting weight gain and/or reducing the content of triglycerides, glucose, and total cholesterol in blood.

  • Patent number: 8807795
    Abstract: An LED lighting device at least comprises a base made of metal materials; a substrate which is disposed on a surface of the base and has one electrode and at least one LED chip; and an insulation sheet which is disposed between the base and the substrate. The insulation sheet and the substrate satisfy the correlations L2+2×T?L1+2×Cr, W2+2×T?W1+2×Cr and Cr?1.6 mm. By controlling the dimension of the insulation sheet, a creepage distance between the electrode and the base can be increased, so as to solve the safety problem of lighting devices without increasing manufacturing costs.

  • Publication number: 20130322077
    Abstract: An LED lamp includes a heat dissipating base and a plurality of light strips. The heat dissipating base is formed by aluminum extrusion and has a length direction defined by the aluminum extrusion direction. The heat dissipating base has a main body and a plurality of heat dissipating fins. The bottom side of the main body has a flat connecting surface. The heat dissipating fins extend outward from the main body. Each light strip has a circuit board and at least one LED module provided on the circuit board. The circuit board of each light strip is provided on the connecting surface of the heat dissipating base. The width (W1) of the connecting surface of the heat dissipating base is greater than three times the width (W2) of each light strip, i.e., W1>3W2.

  • Patent number: 7262943
    Abstract: A configuration unit for a centrally controlled power distribution system is provided. The configuration unit includes a non-volatile memory device and a communications connection. The non-volatile memory device is permanently secured within a switchgear cubicle. The cubicle replaceably receives a circuit breaker and removably receives a module. The communications connection places the non-volatile memory device in communication with the module when the module is removably received in the switchgear cubicle.
