  • Patent number: 10625446
    Abstract: A high-temperature hot-pressing molding machine includes a mold unit, a heating, unit disposed to heat the mold unit, a heat insulating unit including a surrounding insulating member to enclose the mold unit and two insulating layers disposed on two opposite sides of the mold unit to obstruct heat radiation and conduction from the mold unit, a heat dissipating unit disposed on the insulating layers, a cooling unit disposed on the heat dissipating unit, and a vacuum unit disposed to form a vacuum space. Under a vacuum environment, with the heat insulating unit defining a heat zone containing the mold unit, other component parts adjacent to the heat zone can be prevented from damage in a high temperature operation.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 6, 2017
    Date of Patent: April 21, 2020
    Assignee: National Formosa University

  • Patent number: 10361420
    Abstract: Methods for making lead-carbon coupling, lead-carbon electrode sheets, and a lead-carbon battery are revealed. The coupling methods consist of steps of assembling the carbon material that contains oxygen functional groups or metal precursors and lead material in contact with each other and then heating the assembled lead-carbon pair to form lead oxides or metal carbides as a bridge to form coupled lead-carbon interface with high electrochemical and mechanical stability. This coupled lead-carbon structure is applied to form lead-carbon electrode sheets and is further used as electrode sheets of lead-carbon batteries by lead welding.
