20220193571 | PLATE CONNECTING ASSEMBLY - A plate connecting assembly according to an embodiment includes a first frame, with an upper portion and a lower portion of the first frame making a predetermined angle with each other, and a second frame having a first support portion facing the upper portion and a second support portion facing the lower portion. In the plate connecting assembly, a first fixation-subject object is fixed between the upper portion and the first support portion, a second fixation-subject is fixed between the lower portion and the second support portion, and thus the first and second fixation-subject objects are fixed in such a manner that an angle therebetween is the same as an angle that the upper portion and the lower portion make with each other. | 2022-06-23 |
20220193572 | HANDHELD ILLUSION DEVICE - An improved device having a size suitable for handheld use and being used for providing the illusion that a first object has disappeared from view. The first pouch being provided on a first side of a rotatable floor by the timed rotation of the rotatable floor to a second side. The rotatable floor revealing a second object in a second pouch that is provided thereon. The device being operable by a control unit including a microprocessor in communication with a timer mechanism for the motorized rotational movement of the rotatable floor. A display screen having a user interface is used to select the timer parameters for the first and second rotation of the rotational floor. | 2022-06-23 |
20220193573 | STEAM GENERATING DEVICE, AND FUEL CELL SYSTEM INCLUDING THE SAME - A water vapor generating apparatus includes a chamber having an inner space defined therein; a space partitioning member including a first partitioning portion, and a second partitioning portion, wherein the space partitioning member divides the inner space into a water vapor discharge space and a heating space; a first evaporation tube disposed in the heating space and in a coil shape surrounding the second partitioning portion; a second evaporation tube disposed in the heating space and in a coil shape surrounding the first evaporation tube; an inner cage disposed between the first evaporation tube and the second evaporation tube, wherein the inner cage presses against the first evaporation tube toward the second partitioning portion; and an outer cage surrounding the second evaporation tube, wherein the outer cage presses against the second evaporation tube toward the first evaporation tube. | 2022-06-23 |
20220193574 | NEUTRALIZATION/WATER SEPARATION TANK FOR ESTERIFIED PRODUCT AND NEUTRALIZATION/WATER SEPARATION METHOD FOR ESTERIFIED PRODUCT - A neutralization/water separation tank for an esterified product including: a neutralization part in which a crude product mixture containing alcohol and an ester compound, a neutralizing agent, and water are put to produce a neutralized mixture; a water separation part which divides the neutralized mixture into a floating layer and an aqueous layer; a first partition wall which extends upward from a bottom surface to provide an upper passage and by which the neutralization part and the water separation part are partitioned; and a second partition wall which extends downward from a ceiling to provide a lower passage, wherein the water separation part includes: a first water separation part into which the neutralized mixture is introduced from the neutralization part through the upper passage; and a second water separation part into which the neutralized mixture is introduced from the first water separation part through the lower passage, wherein the first water separation part and the second water separation part are partitioned by the second partition wall. | 2022-06-23 |
