Abstract:
The present invention is generally related to an electronic ballast, an ignition control apparatus used therein and associated method of operation. In one embodiment, an electronic ballast comprising an inverter and an ignition control apparatus which comprises a stability monitoring circuit and a controlled ignition circuit. The inverter converts a DC input voltage into an AC voltage to drive a gas discharge lamp. The stability monitoring circuit monitors whether the DC input voltage is stable. The controlled ignition circuit is electrically coupled to the stability monitoring circuit and the lamp, ignites the lamp based on the monitoring result. The controlled ignition circuit does not ignite the gas discharge lamp until the DC input voltage becomes stable.

Abstract:
A trademark retrieval method, comprising: establishing a sample trademark library and establishing a correlation between sample trademarks and division data for figurative element codes of known pending or registered figurative trademarks; extracting and processing image feature information about the sample trademarks, and establishing a correlation between the sample trademarks and the extracted image feature information; extracting image feature information about a trademark to be retrieved; carrying out matching retrieval by taking the image feature information as a retrieval condition, and finding out a sample trademark reaching a pre-determined similarity degree, and a sample trademark with the highest similarity degree and a corresponding figurative element code; acquiring and confirming a figurative element code of the trademark to be retrieved; taking the figurative element code as a retrieval condition to carry out matching retrieval, and finding out a matching sample trademark; collecting a result retrieved by taking the image feature information as the retrieval condition and a result retrieved by taking the figurative element code as the retrieval condition; and sequencing the collected trademarks according to the similarity degree of the image feature information. By means of the present disclosure, the standardized retrieval of figurative trademarks can be realized.
Abstract:
A rhizopus oryzae strain, mutagenesis and screening methods thereof, and methods of producing fumaric acid by fermentation. The strain is named as Rhizopus oryzae ME-F13, and deposited in China Center for Type Culture Collection with depository number CCTCC M 2010351. The strain is obtained by physically mutagenizing the original strain ME-F12 through ion injection, culturing the processed bacteria on the solid selective plate containing 2-D-deoxylucose (2-DG) and picking up 2-DG-resistant single colony. The strain is capable of simultaneously saccharifying starchy material and fermenting it to produce fumaric acid. With an improved enzymatic activity, the strain can be directly used to ferment raw starchy materials without needing pre-saccharifying.
