Title: Xiaoyu Sun: Advancing Defect Detection in Wind Turbine Materials

Introduction

Xiaoyu Sun is an inventor associated with Envision Energy Co., Ltd. in Jiangsu, China. Her patent work addresses the inspection of fiber materials used in wind turbine blades, with a focus on making manufacturing defects easier to detect.

Latest Patents

The provided information lists one patent for Xiaoyu Sun: “Fiber fabric and blade of wind turbine with the same.” The invention describes a fiber fabric made from fiber bundles secured by braided threads. Some threads have a color that contrasts with the fiber bundles, and their spacing is designed to make wrinkle defects visible in the fabric layers. After curing and molding, the threads’ condition can help identify the defects’ locations and the layers in which they formed. The record lists 1 patent.

Career Highlights

Sun’s listed invention connects material design with quality control in wind turbine blade manufacturing. By incorporating contrasting threads into the fabric, the approach aims to help detect and locate wrinkles that might otherwise be difficult to identify after the material is cured and molded.

Collaborations

The provided information names Xiangyang Zhang and Sunil Yellavenkata Jonnalagadda as Sun’s coworkers. Their specific roles in the patent or related work are not stated.

Conclusion

Xiaoyu Sun’s listed patent presents a practical approach to detecting defects in fiber fabric used for wind turbine blades, supporting more precise inspection during manufacturing.
