  • Patent number: 11982073
    Abstract: A faucet includes an internal waterway at least partially formed of a first material. The internal waterway includes a valve seat, a conduit, and a unitary body. The valve seat is configured to receive water. The conduit is coupled to the valve seat. The conduit is in fluid communication with the valve seat and configured to receive the water from the valve seat. The unitary body is formed of a non-metallic material having a processing temperature less than a temperature at which the first material forming the internal waterway is undesirably affected, wherein the unitary body is molded around the internal waterway.

  • Patent number: 11958367
    Abstract: A charging station (10) is provided for electrical DC charging of an electric vehicle with a charging power of at least 150 kW. The charging station (10) has a charging cable (11) with a charging plug (12), via which an electric vehicle to be charged is able to be coupled to the charging station (10) for the purpose of electrical DC charging. A charging interface (13) for electrical AC charging is integrated into the charging station (10). An electric vehicle to be charged can be coupled to the charging interface via a charging cable of the electric vehicle to be charged.

  • Publication number: 20110038099
    Abstract: The specification discloses a method of making an ultracapacitor including the steps of forming a first electrode by adhering CNT on a porous first substrate; placing a non conductive separator over the first electrode, forming a second electrode by adhering a second layer of CNT to a second substrate and placing over the first substrate, attaching a conductive tab to each electrode, rolling the combined electrodes, inserting the rolled electrodes into a metal can, attaching one conductive tab to the bottom of the can, adding an electrolyte to the can, attaching the second conductive tab to a lid of the can, and placing an insulator between the lid and the can.
