Publication number: 20210194028Abstract: The present invention provides a microporous layer structure of a fuel cell, comprising: a microporous layer having high water vapor transmission rate and a microporous layer having low water vapor transmission rate that are sequentially stacked. In the direction of an air flow path, the thickness of the microporous layer having high water vapor transmission rate increases progressively, the thickness of the microporous layer having low water vapor transmission rate decreases progressively, and the total thickness of the microporous layer structure keeps consistent. At an air inlet, the thickness of the microporous layer having high water vapor transmission rate is smaller than that of the microporous layer having low water vapor transmission rate. At an air outlet, the thickness of the microporous layer having high water vapor transmission rate is greater than that of the microporous layer having low water vapor transmission rate.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 5, 2018Publication date: June 24, 2021Applicant: CRRC QINGDAO SIFANG CO., LTD.Inventors: Nianfang WAN, Jianying LIANG, Kelei LI, Wenchao ZHANG, Xu ZHANG

Publication number: 20200355886Abstract: The present invention provides a lens assembly and a mobile terminal. The lens assembly includes a lens and a protective casing. The lens and the protective casing are fixedly connected to the mobile terminal separately. The lens is sheathed in the protective casing. A spacing exists between the protective casing and the lens. In the lens assembly and the mobile terminal provided in this embodiment, when the lens assembly is impacted, the protective casing receives the impact first and is deformed. Without direct connection or contact between the lens and the protective casing, a force received by the protective casing will not be directly transmitted to the lens, and the lens will not be pressed to deform by the protective casing, thereby avoiding a circumstance in which the deformation of the lens makes the mobile terminal unable to accurately recognize an obstacle.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 24, 2020Publication date: November 12, 2020Inventors: Wenchao ZHANG, Bingchun Wang

Patent number: 9800796Abstract: An imaging system includes an image sensor to capture a sequence of images, including a low dynamic range (LDR) image and a high dynamic range (HDR) image, and a processor coupled to the image sensor to receive the LDR image and the HDR image. The processor receives instructions to perform operations to segment the LDR image and HDR image into a plurality of segments. The processor also scans the plurality of LDR and HDR image segments to find a first image segment in the plurality of LDR image segments and a second image segment in the plurality of HDR image segments. The processor then finds interest points in the first and second image segments, and determines an alignment parameter based on matched interest points. The LDR image and the HDR image are combined in accordance with the alignment parameter.Type: GrantFiled: June 6, 2016Date of Patent: October 24, 2017Assignee: OmniVision Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Wenchao Zhang, Timofey Uvarov, Sarvesh Swami, Willie Teck Tian Png, Donghui Wu

Said catalyst consists of (a) the compound containing P and N, (b) electron donor, (c) Cr compound, (d) carrier and (e) accelerator. The molar ratio of (a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) is 0.5-100:0.5-100:1:0.5-10:50-5000. The catalyst is prepared by mixing the components of (a)-(e) in an ethylene trimerization apparatus in situ and ethylene is introduced into the apparatus continuously. The prepared catalyst can be used to synthesize 1-hexene from ethylene trimerization in the inert solvents. The trimerization is performed at 30-150° C. and 0.5-10.0 MPa for 0.1-4 hours. The catalyst has high catalytic activity and high 1-hexene selectivity. During the process of ethylene trimerization, by-product polyethylene does not stick to the apparatus.Type: GrantFiled: July 22, 2010Date of Patent: August 23, 2016Assignee: PETROCHINA COMPANY LIMITEDInventors: Gang Wang, Sihan Wang, Zhonghua Yang, Jiabo Qu, Baojun Zhang, Qian Chen, Deshun Zhang, Libo Wang, Yali Wang, Buwei Yu, Xiuhui Wang, Fuling Huang, Xuemei Han, Dongmei Niu, Shukun Sun, Wenchao Zhang, Hua Li, Gongchen Yan
