  • Publication number: 20160240889
    Abstract: Additives to electrolytes that enable the formation of comparatively more robust SEI films on silicon anodes. The SEI films in these embodiments are seen to be more robust in part because the batteries containing these materials have higher coulombic efficiency and longer cycle life than comparable batteries without such additives.

  • Publication number: 20160099484
    Abstract: The present invention provides an electrolyte composition for a lithium-ion battery comprising LiPF6 in a liquid carrier comprising a carbonate ester and an unsaturated organoboron compound comprising two or three unsaturated hydrocarbon groups, each unsaturated hydrocarbon group being covalently bonded to a boron atom. The unsaturated hydrocarbon groups are independently selected from vinyl, allyl, propargyl, substituted vinyl, substituted allyl, and substituted propargyl. The substituents of the substituted vinyl, allyl and propargyl groups independently comprise one or more of alkyl and phenyl. The alkyl and phenyl groups optionally can bear one or more substituent selected from halogen (e.g., F), hydroxy, amino, alkoxy, and perfluoroalkoxy.

  • Patent number: 8133192
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a massage device, and more particularly, to a leg and foot massage device capable of achieving foot swing. The device includes an electrical machinery deceleration element, a wobbler machine element and an air inflatable bag massage element. The electrical machinery deceleration element drives the air inflatable bag massage element through the wobbler machine element, and the electrical machinery realizes the one-off deceleration. Therefore mechanical transmission steps are simplified and transmission noise obviously dropped, wobbler machine element cooperates with air inflatable bags' inflation and deflation, generating many kinds of different massage motions and obtaining a comprehensive massage effect on leg and feet muscles and joints.

  • Patent number: 7720978
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a system and method for data communication. In the system and method for data communication, a part of communication peers in the communication system are assigned as super peers, and each super peer forwards message according to its route table. When a communication peer logs in the system, network information of the logged communication peer is saved in a super peer which is logically closest to the logged communication peer through messages forwarded among every super peer. And when an origination communication peer searches for a destination communication peer, the network information of the destination communication peer is saved in a super peer which is logically closest to the destination communication peer through the message forwarded among every super peer in super peer layer.
