Patent number: 8920641Abstract: Disclosed herein is an end-cap structure of an oil filter for vehicles. The end-cap includes a base cap which has a hole in a central portion thereof, and a hook cap which is installed in the hole so as to be movable upwards or downwards. In this structure, a surface of the hook cap that comes into contact with the base cap when the hook cap moves upwards is a sealing portion. When the hook cap moves downwards, the sealing state is released and a bypass is formed. According to the structure of the present invention, since the sealing portion of the end-cap can be protected from heat, the quality of the product, the productivity, the economic efficiency, etc. can be enhanced.Type: GrantFiled: January 6, 2014Date of Patent: December 30, 2014Inventors: Chang-Eun Oh, Nam-Woong Lee, Min-Su Lee, Kang-Seok Kim, Sang-Pyo Lee

Publication number: 20140332069Abstract: The present invention relates to a controlled expansion flexible metal substrate material and to a production method therefor. In the present invention, an electrocasting method is used in order to produce a metal substrate material which comprises a controlled expansion alloy and has a textured structure and a wide width. Also, the flexible metal substrate material of the present invention can be used as the substrate for a silicon thin-film solar cell since the Fe—Ni alloying compositional ratio is controlled in such a way that the thermal expansion coefficient approximates that of silicon. The present invention is devised in such a way that the optical pathway is extended and the photoelectric conversion efficiency is improved since a textured structure is provided on the surface of a flexible metal substrate material by forming a textured structure on the surface of a plating drum used as a plating cathode or anode used in an electrocasting method.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 16, 2012Publication date: November 13, 2014Inventors: Tai Hong Yim, Heung Yeol Lee, Min Su Lee, Yoon Ho Han

Publication number: 20120171362Abstract: Disclosed are a non-fluorine and non-silicon hydrocarbon-based adhesive composition for substrate surface treatment for inkjet printing, a substrate surface-treated by the composition, and a method for modifying the surface of the substrate by using the composition so as to form fine lines by means of inkjet nano ink. The disclosed composition includes only an epoxy resin, or includes an epoxy resin and an acrylic compound, so as to hydrophobically modify the substrate. The composition can achieve better properties such as an increase in an ink contact angle, an ink spreadability inhibiting effect, and a wiring adhesive strength, as compared to a conventional silicon-based and/or fluorinated adhesive. Furthermore, since a conventional silicon-based and fluorinated adhesive component is not used, it is possible to perform substrate surface treatment in terms of environmental safety, thereby improving the productivity and the economic efficiency.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 14, 2009Publication date: July 5, 2012Applicant: DOOSAN CORPORATIONInventors: Young Hoon Kim, Min Su Lee, Yong Wook Kim
