  • Publication number: 20220204985
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a composition for promoting plant growth containing an YxaL protein and a method for mass-producing an YxaL protein. The YxaL protein may be expressed constitutively and in large amounts in a recombinant transformed cell line. When the YxaL protein is applied to seed soaking treatment, root development is improved, and the expression of plant genes involved in root growth is improved in favor of plant growth. Thus, the YxaL protein may be effectively used to promote plant growth.

  • Publication number: 20070022875
    Abstract: A divided-type piston of an air compressor, in which a piston rod shaft is inserted into a center portion thereof and reciprocally moves within a cylinder, has a piston body. The piston body is divided into an upper piston, an intermediate piston and a lower piston, and these pistons are integrally fixed and assembled by using a positioning pin, provided that the upper piston and the lower piston are formed with rider ring assembling grooves, and the intermediate piston is formed with compression ring assembling grooves. The rider rings are easily assembled to and disassembled from the piston, the time for assembling and disassembling the rider rings is shortened, and the components of the piston can be prevented from damage when the rides rings are assembled and disassembled.

  • Patent number: 7026881
    Abstract: In a wideband variable frequency voltage controlled oscillator, an LC resonance circuit determines an oscillation frequency based on an externally inputted voltage signal. A negative resistance generating circuit generates a signal having the oscillation frequency determined by the LC resonance circuit. A buffer circuit transfers the oscillation frequency generated by the negative resistance generating circuit to a load. A variable capacitor connecting circuit connects the negative resistance generating circuit and the buffer circuit to transfer the signal having the oscillation frequency from the negative resistance generating circuit to the buffer circuit.

  • Patent number: 6922121
    Abstract: A power saving electromagnetic switch, which is developed to reduce power consumption and implemented using low trouble mechanical parts compared to a conventional electromagnetic switch in which a fixed iron core is electrified to fasten a movable iron core and then a continuous current passes through the fixed iron core during the operation thereof. The power saving electromagnetic switch includes a fixed iron core, a movable iron core and a fastening bar. The fixed iron core includes a guide hole vertically formed from a top thereof, and a through hole formed to penetrate through a side of the fixed iron core and to communicate with the guide hole. The movable iron core moves upward or downward to come into contact with the top of the fixed iron core, and includes a guide rod mounted on a bottom thereof so as to be inserted into the guide hole, the guide rod having a fastening hole formed at an end thereof.

  • Patent number: 5755300
    Abstract: An oil volume control valve 100 is arranged between a power cylinder 10 and an oil passage change valve in a parallel manner. The compressed oil of chamber 11 or 13 of a power cylinder can be bypassed toward a tank 50 through bi-directional orifices 136, 138 of a spool 130 depending on the position of the spool 130. The opening degree of the orifices 136, 138 is controlled by the speed and steering velocity of the vehicle.
