Patent number: 11964460Abstract: The present disclosure provides a pulling rib and a pulling rib manufacturing process thereof and an inflatable product, relating to the technical field of inflatable products. The pulling rib manufacturing process includes the following steps: weaving a dense weaving region and a patterned weaving region in sequence according to preset sizes, wherein a weaving density of the patterned weaving region is lower than that of the dense weaving region; applying glue locally along a surface of the dense weaving region; and after applying the glue, cutting the dense weaving region according to requirements to form pulling ribs, wherein the patterned weaving region between any two adjacent sections of the dense weaving regions is the height of the pulling ribs.Type: GrantFiled: April 21, 2023Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: ZHEJIANG NATURAL OUTDOOR GOODS INC.Inventors: Yonghui Xia, Zhijian Ma, Mengzhi Zhou

Publication number: 20240123049Abstract: Provided is a new-type cis-replicon construct for efficiently expressing a target protein, which comprises an RNA polymerase coding unit and a target protein coding unit. The replicon construct can drive the replication of the target protein coding unit and reduce or avoid the replication and expression of the RNA polymerase, thereby effectively improving the expression of the target protein and reducing the expression of the non-target protein.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 7, 2022Publication date: April 18, 2024Applicant: ZHENGZHOU UNIVERSITYInventors: Shoutao ZHANG, Qiang MA, Qingnan TIAN, Tian WANG, Yonghui HUANG, Guotao LIU, Zhen TIAN

Patent number: 8906576Abstract: A method of treating an electrode for a battery to enhance its performance is disclosed. By depositing a layer of porous carbon onto the electrode, its charging and discharging characteristics, as well as chemical stability may be improved. The method includes creating a plasma that includes carbon and attracting the plasma toward the electrode, such as by biasing a platen on which the electrode is disposed. In some embodiments, an etching process is also performed on the deposited porous carbon to increase its surface area. The electrode may also be exposed to a hydrophilic treatment to improve its interaction with the electrolyte. In addition, a battery which includes at least one electrode treated according to this process is disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: January 25, 2012Date of Patent: December 9, 2014Inventors: Blake L. Darby, Ludovic Godet, Xianfeng Lu, Tristan Yonghui Ma

Patent number: 8763682Abstract: A multi-layer antimicrobial hydrophilic coating is applied to a substrate of anodized aluminum, although other materials may form the substrate. A silver layer is sputtered onto a thoroughly clean anodized surface of the aluminum to about 400 nm thickness. A layer of crosslinked, silicon-based macromolecular structure about 10 nm thickness overlies the silver layer, and the outermost surface of the layer of crosslinked, silicon-based macromolecular structure is hydroxide terminated to produce a hydrophilic surface with a water drop contact angle of less than 10°. The coated substrate may be one of multiple fins in a condensing heat exchanger for use in the microgravity of space, which has narrow channels defined between angled fins such that the surface tension of condensed water moves water by capillary flow to a central location where it is pumped to storage. The antimicrobial coating prevents obstruction of the capillary passages.Type: GrantFiled: June 20, 2008Date of Patent: July 1, 2014Assignee: Orbital Technologies CorporationInventors: Christopher M. Thomas, Yonghui Ma

Patent number: 7913499Abstract: A heat exchanger having a plurality of heat exchanging aluminum fins with hydrophilic condensing surfaces which are stacked and clamped between two cold plates. The cold plates are aligned radially along a plane extending through the axis of a cylindrical duct and hold the stacked and clamped portions of the heat exchanging fins along the axis of the cylindrical duct. The fins extend outwardly from the clamped portions along approximately radial planes. The spacing between fins is symmetric about the cold plates, and are somewhat more closely spaced as the angle they make with the cold plates approaches 90°. Passageways extend through the fins between vertex spaces which provide capillary storage and communicate with passageways formed in the stacked and clamped portions of the fins, which communicate with water drains connected to a pump externally to the duct. Water with no entrained air is drawn from the capillary spaces.Type: GrantFiled: July 1, 2008Date of Patent: March 29, 2011Assignee: Orbital Technologies CorporationInventors: Christopher M. Thomas, Yonghui Ma, Andrew North, Mark M. Weislogel
