Publication number: 20250092820Abstract: A method for detecting belt slip in a starter system for starting an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle, the starter system including a belt-driven integrated starter generator. A control unit of the motor vehicle evaluates a belt slip as detected if a determined belt slip value exceeds a limit value. The belt slip value is determined to belong to a defined time window T, which opens after a start of the internal combustion engine. This determination takes into account at least one change in velocity over time value of the starter generator within the time window T. A motor vehicle with a control unit designed to carry out the method is also included.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 20, 2024Publication date: March 20, 2025Applicant: Ford Global Technologies, LLCInventors: Tobias Emig, Ke Fan, Tianyuan Zhou

Patent number: 12240787Abstract: A preparation method for improving light efficiency and stability of light storing ceramics is provided. Calcium ethanol solution is added into titanium precursor solution firstly and oleic acid dispersant is added, pure water and the light storing powder are subsequently added to obtain a light-storing powder-calcium titanate gel, and dried, crushed and sieved to obtain xerogel powder. Glass matrix material, sieved xerogel powder and another dispersant are placed into a granulator, and directly mechanically stirred and granulated after adding pure water. A plasticizer is added after stirring 4˜8 h, and continuously stirred for 1˜3 h to obtain a mixture, pressing, drying and firing. Calcium titanate is manually introduced to protect the light-storing powder from hydrolysis or high-temperature oxidation. It can also change the propagation path of fluorescence inside ceramics, improve light absorption and fluorescence output efficiency and is conducive to ceramic molding.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 2021Date of Patent: March 4, 2025Assignees: Jiangsu Normal University, Xuzhou All-To Photoelectric Technology Co., LTDInventors: Le Zhang, Shunshun Yang, Rui Wang, Tao Li, Xiaowen Zhu, Xinyu Jiang, Guocan Huang, Jian Kang, Bingheng Sun, Cen Shao, Tianyuan Zhou, Hao Chen

Patent number: 12030817Abstract: A multicolor light-storing ceramic for fire-protection indication and a preparation method thereof are provided. The preparation method includes: adding a glass based raw material, a light-storing powder, a dispersant and an alumina powder into a granulator, adding water mixed with a pore-forming agent and then mechanically stirring for granulation; adding a plasticizer after the stirring of 4˜8 h, and continuing the stirring for 1˜3 h to thereby obtain a mixture; packing the mixture into a mold and performing tableting; demolding and obtaining a light-storing self-luminous quartz ceramic by drying and firing using a kiln; printing a pattern onto a surface of the ceramic and then curing to obtain a light-storing ceramic for indication sign.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 2021Date of Patent: July 9, 2024Assignees: JIANGSU NORMAL UNIVERSITY, XUZHOU ALL-TO PHOTOELECTRIC TECHNOLOGY CO., LTDInventors: Le Zhang, Shunshun Yang, Rui Wang, Jin Huang, Zhanran Wang, Xiaoyu Zhu, Jian Kang, Can Huang, Bingheng Sun, Tianyuan Zhou, Hao Chen
