Patents by Inventor Tai-Yen Sun

Tai-Yen Sun 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: 11612475
    Abstract: A blood conduit with stent has a flexible conduit body and an expandable stent structure. The conduit body has a first opening end through which only an inflow of a blood enters and a second opening end through which only an outflow of the blood leaves. The stent structure includes a plurality of threads adhered to the conduit body and expands in directions intersecting an axial direction of the conduit body. A boundary of one of the threads of the stent structure closest to the second opening end is away from the second opening end with a predetermined distance, thereby preventing blood back flow into the false lumen via a new tear.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 10, 2017
    Date of Patent: March 28, 2023

  • Patent number: 6669115
    Abstract: A nozzle for discharging finely atomized fluids comprises a vortex-mixing-module with a mixing chamber along with at least one liquid inlet tangentially communicating with the chamber and at least one gas inlet axially communicating with the liquid inlet prior to their injection into the mixing chamber, wherein the mixed fluid of liquid/gas from the liquid inlet is setting vortex flow, re-mixing with each other and forming bubble-laden fluid. An impingement member positioned at the downstream of a substantially concentric-mounted pintle stem of the module provides the function of metering flow and forming the spray angle while maintaining the flow distribution to be axial-symmetric in both mass and velocity plus forming a flow field with non-disturbed angular momentum.
