  • Patent number: 12134081
    Abstract: The present application provides a continuous preparation system and method for vinylidene chloride. In the present application, by coupling two stages of high gravity reactors, the product vinylidene chloride and water vapor are distilled from a reaction system in form of an azeotrope by adopting a water vapor steam stripping method, and the product obtained using the method has high purity. In addition, by combining steam stripping and high gravity, trichloroethane and alkali solution are rapidly mixed for mass transfer, and the product vinylidene chloride is rapidly distilled from the reaction system in form of the azeotrope (based on rapid diffusion of water vapor), such that the reaction proceeds continuously towards the direction of producing vinylidene chloride, thus significantly improving the conversion rate.

  • Patent number: 11945110
    Abstract: A multi-degree-of-freedom continuum robot with a flexible target grasping function comprises a driving device module, a trunk simulation module and a nimble finger module. The trunk simulation module is composed of a rotary compression module and a bending compression module. Each module has a unified connection interface reserved at the end, and is combined and assembled according to actual needs. The driving module is arranged on the base of the robot to realize the driving operation of all cables to control the motion of the robot. The rotary compression module can simultaneously generate the motion in the forms of rotation and compression, thereby compensating for the defect of blind angle of the bending compression module. The bending compression module can realize compression deformation and bending deformation of the module independently. The nimble finger module realizes a grasping function by multi-finger collaboration.
