Patents by Inventor SHIN-TA WU

SHIN-TA WU has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 12055575
    Abstract: A method of monitoring static charge is provided. The method includes the operations as follows. A conductive tape is wrapped around an outer surface of a non-conductive tube. A metallic plate is connected to the conductive tape. The conductive tape and the metallic plate are covered by a metallic box, wherein the conductive tape and the metallic plate are entirely disposed within a metallic box. A plurality of static charges are detected from the metallic plate by an electrostatic field meter.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 5, 2023
    Date of Patent: August 6, 2024

  • Patent number: 11680972
    Abstract: A method of monitoring static charge is provided. The method includes the operations as follows. A metallic plate is connected to a conductive tape wrapped around an outer surface of a non-conductive tube. A plurality of static charges are detected from the metallic plate by an electrostatic field meter, wherein the conductive tape and the metallic plate are entirely disposed within a metallic box. A flow rate of a fluid flowing through the non-conductive tube is adjusted according to the plurality of static charges detected by the electrostatic field meter.

  • Patent number: 11280823
    Abstract: A monitoring system is provided. The monitoring system includes a non-conductive tube, a conductive tape, a metallic plate, and an electrostatic field meter. The non-conductive tube includes an outer surface. The conductive tape is wrapped around the outer surface of the non-conductive tube. The metallic plate contacts and extends away from the conductive tape. The electrostatic field meter is disposed a predetermined distance away from the metallic plate, and a static charge of the metallic plate is detectable by the electrostatic field meter. A method of monitoring static charge is also provided.
