Title: Electric compressor
Inventor: HASEGAWA TAKEHIRO
IPC: F04C29/00
Filed: 2006-05-02
Abstract: An electric compressor incorporating an electric motor for driving a compressor mechanism and containing, in the compressor housing, a joint between an external terminal for supplying power to the electric motor and an end of a wire from the stator of the electric motor. The electric compressor has a vibration proof means mechanically preventing at least one of disconnection, electrical interruption, and damage on an insulating member that are caused by vibration at the joint and/or the periphery of the joint.  The vibration proof means can adopt various structures. When such a mechanical vibration proof means is provided in the electric compressor, vibration proof performance can be enhanced at the joint of a motor terminal with good productivity achieved, and occurrence of disconnection and instantaneous interruption of the terminal joint can be prevented.

Title: Ionization of hydrocarbon fuel molecule by electromagnetic waves (laser) providing ionization energy in the form photons to convert chemical energy of fuel molecule into electrical energy
IPC: H01M8/02
Filed: 2007-11-15
Abstract: Hydrocarbon fuel is exposed to laser (electromagnetic wave) of specific wavelength in absence of air to ionize fuel molecules. Hydrogen atoms in fuel molecule become positively charged hydrogen ions due in the process of ionization by electromagnetic waves. The hydrogen ions are passed through a proton exchange membrane to atmosphere where it combines with oxygen in the air to form water molecules. The positive charge of hydrogen ion is carried by proton exchange membrane in to electrical circuit. Free electrons generated in the process of ionization are collected by metal electron collector cathode which carries the electrons in electrical circuit.   The ionization of fuel is carried out in magnetic field which drives positive ions toward proton exchange membrane and electrons in opposite direction toward electron collector cathode.  The process of ionization energy is to molecule in the form of laser (electromagnetic waves).  The ionization energy breaks the C-H bond to make hydrogen ions.     The proton exchange membrane and metal electron collector are connected to each other through an electrical circuit through which electrical current flows due to potential difference in electrons and protons.   The molecular energy of hydrocarbon fuel is directly converted to electrical energy in the circuit without combusting fuel.

Title: Video compression using adaptive variable length codes
Inventor: BAO YILIANG
IPC: H04N7/26
Filed: 2007-07-08
Abstract: Adaptive variable length coding techniques may be used for entropy coding of residual block coefficients produced by predictive video coding. The techniques may be applied to schemes that code positions of nonzero transform coefficients using zero runs. Coding parameters such as end of block (EOB) shift and VLC codebook selection tables may be maintained as internal states, instead of sending them with coded video slice data. Table entries may be periodically updated based on statistics collected during a coding pass. A special EOB shift table may adapt the position of a special EOB symbol in a symbol set to probability of significant coefficients with magnitude greater than one for a coding condition, such as a coding cycle. Chroma blocks may be coded independently of luma blocks using separate EOB shift, special EOB shift, and VLC codebook selection tables.
