  • Publication number: 20230406166
    Abstract: A modular and electromechanically integrated easy-entry mechanism includes an easy-entry mechanism, manufactured independently of slide rail assemblies, and mounted on upper slide rails in the slide rail assemblies by fasteners. A total travel of slide rails is divided into a comfort travel for front-rear adjustment of a passenger and an easy-entry travel for increasing an easy-entry/exit space for a passenger in the third row seating. The unlocking of the slide rails is mechanically maintained in the easy-entry travel, and the slide rails are ensured to be locked at the front-most position of the comfort travel when a seat is retracted. The easy-entry mechanism is driven manually or by electric power, and acts independently on unlocking pins in slide rail locking mechanisms to unlock the slide rail assemblies. The easy-entry mechanism is modularly designed, easy to manufacture, mount, and replace, and does not affect the existing slide rail manufacturing process.

  • Patent number: 11779935
    Abstract: Disclosed are a slow-release inhibitor for high-magnesium sulfide mineral flotation and an application thereof, where the inhibitor is a nano colloidal particle of an alkaline earth fluoride such as CaF2 and BaF2 or a highly-reactive natural alkaline earth metal mineral powder. When applied to the flotation separation of a high-magnesium sulfide ore, the inhibitor can slowly release F ions to preferentially form a MgF2 layer on the magnesium-containing mineral surface, which provides a structure similar to MgF2 on a surface of oxidized gangue minerals such as magnesium oxide, changing surface electrical property of the magnesium-containing mineral, inhibiting heterogeneous coagulation of magnesium-containing minerals and sulfide ores due to electrostatic attraction and reducing entrainment, enveloping and agglomeration of gangue minerals to efficiently inhibit the flotation of oxidized gangue minerals such as magnesium oxide.
