20120269645 | WIND TURBINE COMPONENT HAVING AN EXPOSED SURFACE MADE OF A HYDROPHOBIC MATERIAL - The invention provides a wind turbine component having an exposed surface made of a hydrophobic material and having a surface texture providing a Water Contact Angle (CA) of at least 150. Due to the combination between a CA over 150 and the hydrophobic material, the component becomes less vulnerable to ice formation etc. The invention further provides a method of preventing ice formation, a method of reducing noise and a blade for reducing noise from a wind turbine. | 10-25-2012 |
20130040151 | METHOD FOR JOINING FIBRE-CONTAINING COMPOSITE MATERIALS - The present invention relates to methods for joining and for improving interfacial strength of joints in objects of fibre-containing composite materials, such as epoxy/glass fibre composite materials of a wind turbine blade, as well as fibre reinforced composite materials, laminates and other interconnected objects prepared by this method. In particular wind turbine blades prepared by this method are described. The present invention further relates to robots and robotic tools for carrying out the described methods for joining objects of fibre-containing composite materials. | 02-14-2013 |

20130313447 | OPTO-COUPLER - An optoelectronic device is disclosed. The optoelectronic device may be employed as a single or multi-channel opto-coupler that electrically isolates one circuit from another circuit. The opto-coupler may include one or more light guides and an insulative tape that helps define a shape of the one or more light guides. | 11-28-2013 |
20140117383 | Optocoupler Having Lens Layer - An optocoupler having optical lens layer is disclosed. The optocoupler may comprise an optical emitter, an optical receiver, an isolation layer, a lens layer and a substantially transparent encapsulant. The lens layer may be integrally formed within the optical receiver. Alternatively, the lens layer may be formed integrally with the isolation layer, or the lens layer may be an optical film attached on the optical receiver. The substantially transparent encapsulant may encapsulate at least partially the optical emitter, the optical receiver and the isolation layer. The isolation layer may be inserted to the substantially transparent encapsulant, making the substantially transparent encapsulant into two compartments. In another embodiment, an electronic system having optocoupler is disclosed. | 05-01-2014 |
