Patent number: 12251871Abstract: A roller embossing method for flexible graphite polar plates of fuel cells comprises: (1) adjusting a clearance of an embossing roller pair of a roller press to a target thickness value of a monopolar plate; (2) feeding a flexible graphite slab in front of the embossing roller pair, and entangling the flexible graphite slab by means of opposite rotation of the embossing roller pair; (3) after the slab is entangled, continuing to forward roll the slab for 10-100 mm, and then reversely rolling the slab for 5-90 mm by means of synchronous and opposite rotation of an upper and a lower embossing roller, wherein one time of forward rolling and one time of reverse rolling are referred to as reciprocal rolling; (4) forming a polar plate after several times of reciprocal rolling, and separating the polar plate from the embossing rollers; (5) performing subsequent treatment on the roll-formed flexible graphite polar plate.Type: GrantFiled: August 10, 2021Date of Patent: March 18, 2025Assignee: Shanghai Shenli Technology Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yichong Zhang, Xiaojing Chen, Ang Li, Jinjian Zhang, Xiaolei Zhang, Xiaohui Li, Quanquan Gan, Yongzhan Wang, Wei Dai, He Zhang

Patent number: 11916913Abstract: A user requests to join a meeting is detected. The meeting includes a meeting audio stream of one or more participant audio streams that include participant timestamps that correspond to when one or more other users are in the meeting. The user is prompted for an authentication credential based on the detecting the request to join the meeting. A participant profile of the user is determined based the authentication credential. The user is authorized access to the meeting and a first timestamp is saved. A first audio stream of the user is recorded. The user is identified as having left the meeting and a second timestamp is saved. A transcript of the meeting audio stream is generated based on the first audio stream and the one or more participant audio streams. The first timestamp, the second timestamp, and the meeting are associated with the participant profile.Type: GrantFiled: November 22, 2019Date of Patent: February 27, 2024Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: David Kenneth McKnight, Shiu Lee, Yichong Zhang

Patent number: 11880350Abstract: Resource lock ownership identification is provided across processes and systems of a clustered computing environment by a method which includes saving by a process, based on a user acquiring a resource lock, a lock information record to a shared data structure of the clustered computing environment. The lock information record includes user identification data identifying the user-owner of the resource lock acquired on a system executing the process. The method also includes referencing, by another process, the lock information record of the shared data structure to ascertain the user identification data identifying the user-owner of the resource lock, and thereby facilitate processing within the clustered computing environment.Type: GrantFiled: June 8, 2021Date of Patent: January 23, 2024Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: David Kenneth McKnight, Yichong Zhang, Dung Thi Tang, Onno Van den Troost

Patent number: 11632432Abstract: Dynamic overflow processing is provided in a multi-user computing environment, which includes receiving, from a user, a request for a new user session at a port of a process of the multi-user computing environment, where the process supports multiple users via the port, and determining that accommodating the new user session will result in resource usage of the process exceeding a predetermined capacity threshold for the process. Based on determining that capacity threshold will be exceeded, the process redirects the request for the new user session to an overflow process started by the process, where the overflow process is an additional instance of the process running within the multi-user computing environment. The process receives a response from the overflow process to the request for the new user session, and forwards the received response to the request for the new user session to the user.Type: GrantFiled: June 9, 2021Date of Patent: April 18, 2023Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Dung Thi Tang, David Kenneth McKnight, Daniel Paroski, Yichong Zhang

An appropriateness level of media data based on a plurality of factors for sending the media data from one or more computing devices may be determined. A first communication protocol may be selected for transmitting the media data according to the appropriateness level. The media data may be transferred using the first communication protocol from the one or more computing devices to one or more recipient computing devices within a defined proximity according to the appropriateness level.Type: GrantFiled: May 18, 2020Date of Patent: October 5, 2021Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Joseph Lam, Hau Co, Yichong Zhang
