  • Publication number: 20230291333
    Abstract: A gravity-driven electricity generating device includes a first power unit having a first swaying frame pivoting from a first position to a second position to output a first power, thereby moving a first end of a pressing board downward and moving a second end of the pressing board upward to pivot in a first direction. A second power unit has a second swaying frame pivoting from a first position to a second position to output second power, thereby moving the first end of the pressing board upward and moving the second end of the pressing board downward to pivot in a second direction. Upward movement of the first end causes the first swaying frame to pivot in the second direction to the first position. Downward movement of the second end causes the second swaying frame to pivot in the second direction to the first position.

  • Patent number: 11706982
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of display technologies, and particularly to a fused polycyclic compound, a preparation method and use thereof. The fused polycyclic compound provided in the present invention has a structure of General Formula IV. The structure of the compound has ambipolarity, and the HOMO level and the LUMO level of the host material are respectively located on different electron donating group and electron withdrawing group, such that the transport of charges and holes in the host material becomes more balanced, thereby expanding the area where holes and electrons are recombined in the light emitting layer, reducing the exciton concentration, preventing the triplet-triplet annihilation of the device, and improving the efficiency of the device.
