Publication number: 20220148721Abstract: An analysis method for the causal inference of human physiological network in multiscale time series signals includes the following steps: S1: decomposing physiological signals u1, u2, . . . , um to be analyzed by using a noise-assisted multivariate empirical mode decomposition (NA-MEND) algorithm; S2: carrying out a causal analysis between two different physiological signals ui, uj, where i=1, 2, . . . , m, j=1, 2, . . . , m, and i?j, to obtain a causality between the two signals; and S3: repeating step S2 for any two signals in u1, u2, . . . , um until a causality between each two signals in u1, u2, . . . , um is obtained to form the causal network. The present invention can effectively analyze the causal network of the physiological signals, thereby facilitating the application of the physiological signals.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 9, 2021Publication date: May 12, 2022Applicant: University of Electronic Science and Technology of ChinaInventors: Yi Zhang, Lifu Zhang, Guan Wang, Mingjun Xie, Ziwen Li, Denan Lin, Xiaohong Fan, Banghua Wu, Jipeng Fan, Lixin Pu, Mingjie He, Steven Su, Branko Celler, Peng Xu, Dezhong Yao

Patent number: 9266982Abstract: Provided are a process for preparing an N ortho acyl substituted nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound and an aminal iron (II) complex thereof, and the use of the complexes obtained by the process in an olefin oligomerization catalyst. The N ortho acyl substituted nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound in the present invention is for example 2-acyl-1,10-phenanthroline or 2,6-diacetyl pyridine as shown in formula b, and the N ortho acyl substituted nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound in the present invention is produced by a reaction of a precursor thereof in a substituted or unsubstituted nitrobenzene. Preferably the precursor shown in formula I in the present invention is produced by 1,10-phenanthroline reacting with trialkyl aluminum, or a halogenoalkyl aluminum RnAIXm, or a substituted or unsubstituted benzyl lithium Ph?CH2Li, followed by hydrolysis.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 2011Date of Patent: February 23, 2016Assignees: China Petroleum & Chemical Corporation, Beijing Research Institute of Chemical Industry, China Petroleum & Chemical CorporatinInventors: Jun Liu, Mingfang Zheng, Weizhen Li, Haiying Zhang, Huaijie Wang, Yu Zhou, Tonglin Li, Lan Zhao, Hongfei Wu, Mingjun Xie, Chunhong Wu, Zhiguang Jia, Yanping Qi, Jilong Wang

Patent number: 9186156Abstract: A chuck assembly for use with a surgical drill. The chuck assembly is configured to receive a drill bit. The chuck assembly includes an input drive shaft and a linear clutch coupled to the input drive shaft. The linear clutch has an inner coupler. The linear clutch transfers rotary motion from the input drive shaft to the inner coupler when the inner coupler is exposed to a displacing force that causes the inner coupler into engagement with the input drive shaft. A rotary clutch is coupled to the input drive shaft. The rotary clutch has an outer coupler. The rotary clutch transfers rotary motion from the input drive shaft to the outer coupler only when the input drive shaft rotates in a reverse direction.Type: GrantFiled: March 13, 2013Date of Patent: November 17, 2015Assignee: Stryker CorporationInventor: Mark Mingjun Xie

Patent number: 6382065Abstract: An idler pulley wheel arrangement for a bandsaw includes a non-rotating idler shaft and an idler pulley wheel assembly positioned on the shaft for rotation relative thereto. A latch mechanism is positioned on an end of the shaft and includes a latch part connected to the end of the shaft for movement between a first position defining a latching state of the mechanism in which a portion of the latch part extends beyond an outer surface of the shaft and a second position defining a non-latching state of the mechanism in which the latch part is positioned entirely within or in substantial alignment with the outer surface of the shaft. The latch mechanism also includes a catch positioned on the end of the shaft for holding the latch part in the non-latching state such that the idler pulley wheel assembly can be slid off the end of the shaft when the latch mechanism is in the non-latching state.Type: GrantFiled: April 13, 2000Date of Patent: May 7, 2002Assignee: Premark FEG L.L.C.Inventor: Mark Mingjun Xie

Patent number: 6362441Abstract: A foot actuated pneumatic switch for use in association with food-equipment such as mixer-grinders. The switch includes a u-shaped compressible pedal and a hemispherically shaped rubber actuator. The operator applies pressure to the pedal thereby depressing the actuator and initiating operation of the equipment. The pedal operates by means of a spring-like operation which enables the pedal to return to its static position when the pressure on the pedal is removed.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 2000Date of Patent: March 26, 2002Assignee: Premark FEG L.L.C.Inventor: Mark Mingjun Xie
