Hoonhui Lee has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 9450251
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of manufacturing an anode for a fuel cell. The method includes: synthesizing a fuel cell catalyst used to oxidize a fuel for the anode in an electrochemical manner; forming an electrode for the anode by use of the synthesized fuel cell catalyst; and synthesizing an electrolysis catalyst, which is used to electrolyze water, on the electrode as the electrolysis catalyst is loaded into the anode. By introducing the electrolysis catalyst on the fuel cell electrode that has already been formed, deformation of the structure of the electrode is minimized and performance of the electrode is improved.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 5, 2015
    Date of Patent: September 20, 2016

  • Publication number: 20110127263
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a fire safety apparatus for a high-pressure fuel tank of a vehicle, which can prevent a high-pressure fuel tank from exploding due to a fire and preferably preclude secondary damage due to high-pressure fuel tank, by forcibly discharging the high-pressure gas in high-pressure fuel tank, using a pressure operator, before high-pressure fuel tank is damaged and exploded by flame in a vehicle on fire.

  • Publication number: 20110079403
    Abstract: The present invention features a fire safety apparatus for a high-pressure gas fuel tank of a vehicle, comprising a pressure relief device that is disposed between a tank connection channel and an outside connection channel in a tank valve of a high-pressure fuel tank and that connects the tank connection channel with the outside connection channel when the tank valve increases in temperature over a predetermined level in a fire, and a suitable intumescent that is hydrate disposed with the high-pressure fuel tank to increase in volume and absorbs heat, with the water from evaporation in a fire, and delay the flames spreading over the high-pressure fuel tank by producing a heat insulation barrier after the water evaporates.
