Patent number: 11892101Abstract: Embodiments provide anti-frost heaving supports and methods for crude oil pipeline crossing permafrost region. The anti-frost heaving support includes a support frame. An arc-shaped frame is installed on a top of the support frame. Two sets of adjusting devices are disposed on the arc-shaped frame, each set of the adjusting devices includes a pushing device fixedly installed on the arc-shaped frame. In the anti-frost heaving support, a piston plate compresses air inside the sealing frame so that a compressional force of an elastic plate and a stressed plate on the pipeline increases. When the compressional force increases, the elastic plate deforms to make a moving rod to move towards to an interior of the sealing frame. When moving on a tilted surface of a tilting plate, the moving rod pushes the tilting plate to move. The tilting plate pushes the sealing plate to be opened to release the air inside the sealing frame, thereby reducing the compressive force exerted by the stressed plate on the pipeline.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 2023Date of Patent: February 6, 2024Assignee: NORTHWEST INSTITUTE OF ECO-ENVIRONMENT AND RESOURCES, CASInventors: Yapeng Cao, Guoyu Li, Wei Ma, Dun Chen, Kai Gao, Gang Wu

Publication number: 20230254738Abstract: A method of enhancing session continuity for system interworking is proposed. Upon a UE performs inter-system change from A/Gb mode or Iu mode to S1 mode, the UE identifies that some PDN connection(s) are not associated with a PDU session ID (PSI). In one novel aspect, the UE deactivates all EPS bearer contexts for such PDN connection(s) locally, includes the EPS bearer context status IE in a TRACKING AREA UPDATE REQUEST message of a tracking area updating (TAU) procedure upon inter-system change from A/Gb mode or Iu mode to S1 mode, and then initiates UE requested PDN connectivity procedure(s) for such PDN connection(s). Furthermore, if no EPS bearer exists after local deactivation and EMM-REGISTERED without PDN connection is not supported by the UE, then the UE initiates a re-attach procedure followed by the UE requested PDN connectivity procedure(s) for such PDN connection (s) .Type: ApplicationFiled: January 31, 2023Publication date: August 10, 2023Inventors: CHIEN-CHUN HUANG-FU, Bo-Hun Chen, Shang-Wu Li, Yu-Kai Gao
