Abstract: A driving circuit and a method for operating the driving circuit is provided for a lamp, the lamp includes a lighting unit, and a first and a second pair of connection pins for coupling the driving circuit to a power supply unit. The driving circuit includes a pre-heating detection circuit and a protection circuit. The pre-heating detection circuit is coupled to the first pair of connection pins and configured to detect a voltage between the first pair of connection pins and output a reference voltage. The protection circuit includes a switching circuit connected in series with the lighting unit, the protection circuit is configured to compare the reference voltage with an input voltage of the lamp and turn on the switching circuit to light the lighting unit when the input voltage of the lamp is greater than the reference voltage.

Abstract: A somatosensor device comprises a handle (10) having a hollow free end (130) to form a cavity (133) with an opening in a tail end surface (131); a wireless charging circuit board (30) overlapped on the tail end surface (131); a tracker (50) fixed on the wireless charging circuit board (30) and electrically connected with same, the tracker (50) inserted into the cavity (133) as the wireless charging circuit board (30) is overlapped on the tail end surface (131); and an end cap (70) covered on the free end (130) of the handle(10), so as to seal the cavity (133) with the opening in the tail end surface (131). The configuration takes account of the sealability and wireless charging.

Abstract: A process for the absorption of one or more gas(es) selected from the group consisting of carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, sulfur oxides, nitrogen oxides and carbon monoxide from a fluid, the process including: providing a fluid containing the selected gas(es); and an ionic liquid absorbent, the absorbent including the components: one or more anions; one or more metal species; and optionally one or more organic cations; and optionally one or more ligands; the absorbent components being selected such that the absorbent is in a liquid state at the operating temperature and pressure of the process; with the provisos that: when the anion contains in the same molecular entity: both an amine functional group and a sulfonate functional group; both an amine functional group and a carboxylate functional group; both a phosphine functional group and a sulfonate functional group; or both a phosphine functional group and a carboxylate functional group, the metal species is not an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal; the
