Latest Patents

Chen’s patent, “Gripping mechanism, loading device and loading control method,” describes an adjustable gripping mechanism for handling plates of different specifications and sizes. Its first and second jaws are positioned on opposite sides of a clamping zone, and at least one jaw can move to adjust the spacing between them. This design aims to make the mechanism compatible with a range of plate dimensions.

His patent, “OCV detection method and detection device,” concerns open-circuit voltage (OCV) inspection of battery materials. The method checks materials at an inspection location and, when results are unqualified, routes materials for further testing and replacement. By inspecting transferred materials as well as regular batches, the process is designed to identify more batteries per unit of time and improve detection efficiency.
