  • Patent number: 11959383
    Abstract: A method for carrying out grouting between adjacent gateroads in internal-staggered split-level coal mining. A return air gateroad of a stoping face and an inlet air gateroad of a heading face are not on the same level. The return air gateroad of the stoping face is arranged along a roof of a coal seam. The inlet air gateroad of the heading face is arranged along a floor of the coal seam. There is a height difference between the return air gateroad and the inlet air gateroad in a vertical direction. During the construction process, the inlet air gateroad is excavated at a delay distance of 180-200 meters from the return air gateroad. The drilling and grouting are performed while excavating the roadway, where grouting holes are arranged in a single row. A device for implementing the method is also provided.

  • Patent number: 11925552
    Abstract: A stent device with skirt folds and a processing method thereof, a skirt folding method, and a heart valve. The stent device comprises a stent (1, 105) and a flexible skirt (2, 107), the skirt (2, 107) having an expanded state, in which the skirt is axially extended and surrounds the stent (1, 105) before release thereof, and a folded state, in which the skirt is driven by the deformation caused when the stent (1, 105) is released, collapses and folds axially along the released stent (1, 105) so as to form an annular peripheral leakage-blocking portion. The peripheral leakage prevention technology enables an interventional stent to fit to the inner wall of a vessel more snugly, such that the stent does not easily move and is more stable, thereby being suitable for more people, reducing additional risks of surgery and preventing complications such as peripheral leakage and thrombus.

  • Patent number: 11921368
    Abstract: An electronic device may be provided with a display. The display may be overlapped by an antiglare film. The antiglare film may have a rough surface to diffuse incident light, thereby reducing glare. Additionally, the antiglare film may have a smooth portion that forms a transparent window and allows light to pass through undiffused. The electronic device may include a light-based component, such as a camera, that receives undiffused light through the transparent window. By overlapping the light-based component with the transparent window, the light-based component may receive the light in an unimpeded manner, thereby making more accurate measurements of the light. The display may have one or more display layers, such as opaque masking layers or polarizers, with openings that are aligned with the transparent window. The light-based component may receive the light through these openings so that the light is not absorbed or polarized before reaching the component.

  • Publication number: 20240045259
    Abstract: An electronic device may include a projection display that has a high transparency when the display is turned off. The high off-state transparency may create the appearance of the display being invisible in the off-state, which may be desirable in certain electronic devices. The projection display may include an adjustable diffuser, a spatial light modulator that projects images onto the adjustable diffuser, a mirror that reflects the images from the spatial light modulator to the adjustable diffuser, and a light source that provides light to the spatial light modulator. The projection display may also include an adjustable opacity layer that is controlled based on detected ambient light levels. The projection display may also include an adjustable reflectivity layer. The adjustable diffuser and/or light source may be pixelated to increase contrast in the projection display.

  • Publication number: 20240045985
    Abstract: This specification provides example data query methods, apparatuses, and systems for a multi-party secure database. In an example computer-implemented method, a central node receives a data query request from a data requester, where the data query request relates to one or more pieces of target data stored at one or more data providers. The central node determines whether the data query request satisfies respective security requirements of the one or more pieces of target data. In response to determining that the data query request satisfies respective security requirements of the one or more pieces of target data, the central node processes the one or more pieces of target data to obtain result data; and sends the result data to the data requester. The central node can restrict query of the target data by the data requester based on the security requirement of the target data stored at the data provider.
