Yingli Wen has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11761664
    Abstract: A system and method for ventilating a utility structure enclosed by a vented cover is provided. The system includes at least one air movement device coupled to the cover. A first induction loop is electrically coupled to the at least one air movement device, the first induction loop being coupled to the cover. A second induction loop is disposed in the utility structure, the second induction loop being inductively coupled to the first induction loop. A gas sensor is operably coupled to the second induction loop to direct electrical power to the second induction loop in response to a gas level being equal to or exceeding a predetermined threshold.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 26, 2021
    Date of Patent: September 19, 2023

  • Patent number: 6621276
    Abstract: A cable termination assembly for testing the quality of insulation surrounding a power cable has one termination design to fit a large range of cable constructions, does not require different insulation shield cut-back distances, provides a secure electrical connection, and is environmentally friendly. A cable grip assembly is attached to an exposed conductor. The bottom outer surface of an inner cup is attached to the inner bottom surface of an outer cup wherein the inner cup is fully contained in the outer cup. When the two cups are attached, the cable grip assembly is mateably connected into the top of the inner cup and the outer cup is filled with a high dielectric strength liquid covering the inner cup and the cable grip assembly. After the high dielectric strength liquid has been added, a voltage is applied and the partial voltage discharge of the power cable is measured.
