  • Patent number: 10293309
    Abstract: A new method for generating micro-nano bubbles that uses water hammering, a bubble generating nozzle, and an apparatus for generating micro-nano bubbles are provided to construct a system. The system is for generating micro-nano bubbles in a large amount using only pure water, which does not include any nucleating agents, and for performing not only a clean washing and sterilization but also the generation of uncontaminated micro-nano bubbles. The method defined in the present invention uses water hammering power produced by a mutual collision of jets of dissolved-gas-including solution squirted from two or more spouts.

  • Patent number: 9688506
    Abstract: A coil component has a core including a winding core extending in a predetermined direction, and a winding wrapped around the winding core in two or more layers. A first winding portion at one end in the predetermined direction in an (n+1)'th layer of the winding, where n is a natural number, is positioned over a space between second and third winding portions in an n'th layer, the second and third winding portions being adjacently spaced in the predetermined direction.
