摘要:
An ion-exchange membrane is disclosed here including ion-permeable layers impregnated with an ion-exchange material and arranged in an order from one face of the membrane to the opposite face of the membrane such that opposing layers in the supporting membrane substrate provide sufficiently identical physical properties to substantially avoid irregular expansion when in a salt solution. The ion-permeable layers including at least one non-woven layer and at least one reinforcing layer.

This specification describes an ion exchange membrane and a method of making it. The membrane may be used, for example, in an electrodialysis module or electrochemical cell. The membrane comprises an ion exchange polymer and inorganic particles preferably linked to the ion exchange polymer. To make a membrane, inorganic particles are mixed into an ion exchange membrane pre-cursor. A polymerization initiator or catalyst is then added and the resulting mixture is placed in a form and cured. The inorganic particles may comprise, for example, an oxidized form of graphite such as graphite oxide. The ion exchange polymer may comprise an ionic monomer, containing a quaternary ammonium group for anion exchange or a sulfonate group for cation exchange, along with a crosslinking co-monomer containing polymerizable diacrylic functionalities. The membrane is self-supporting and can be made without a supporting fabric.

Improvements in an adjustable box and adapter are disclosed for mounting a junction box directly to a stud, between studs, and to a ceiling using an adaptor and adjusting the position of said junction box. The junction box can be secured to the adaptor using screws. Longitudinal slots on the adaptor allow the adjustment of the position of the junction box along the adaptor by loosening the screws. The screws can be tightened or loosened using the screwheads or attachments on the screws, thereby allowing the adjustment of the junction box from both within the junction box and outside the junction box.

A method and apparatus of Inter/Intra prediction for a chroma component performed by a video encoder or video decoder are disclosed. According to this method, a current chroma prediction block (e.g. a prediction unit, PU) is divided into multiple chroma prediction sub-blocks (e.g. sub-PUs). A corresponding luma prediction block is identified for each chroma prediction sub-block. A chroma prediction mode for each chroma prediction sub-block is determined from a luma prediction mode associated with the corresponding luma prediction block. A local chroma predictor for the current chroma prediction block is generated by applying a prediction process to the multiple chroma prediction sub-blocks using respective chroma prediction modes. In other words, the prediction process is applied at the chroma prediction sub-block level. After the local chroma predictor is derived, a coding block associated with the current chroma prediction block is encoded or decoded using information comprising the local chroma predictor.

A method and apparatus of block partition for prediction process or transform process in video coding are disclosed. Whether a smallest allowed block size smaller than 4 is allowed is determined and information related to the decision is signalled in SPS (sequence parameter set), PPS (picture parameter set) or slice header regarding. If the smallest allowed block size smaller than 4 is allowed, the current block is partitioned into one or more sub-blocks using a block size set including the smallest allowed block size. The smallest allowed block size is 2 in one embodiment. According to another method, a threshold area is determined and transform skip mode is applied to the current block if the current block area of the current block is equal to or smaller than the threshold area.

Improvements in a bracket is disclosed for mounting an electrical box onto a mounting bar. An electrical box can be preinstalled onto the bracket and clamped onto the mounting bar using wings. Bendable tabs can be articulated to secure the bracket and onto a rail. Fasteners are used to secure an electrical junction box onto the bracket and an additional fastener secures the sub assembly to the rail. The tabs can be unbent for removal. An installer can secure the bracket and electrical box using a screw and adjust the position of the bracket on the mounting bar. The bracket provides a low profile assemble that allows the bracket to be installed between the inner surfaces of stud walls.

A method and apparatus for depth lookup table (DLT) signaling in a three-dimensional and multi-view coding system are disclosed. According to the present invention, if the pictures contain only texture data, no DLT information is incorporated in the picture parameter set (PPS) corresponding to the pictures. On the other hand, if the pictures contain depth data, the DLT associated with the pictures is determined. If a previous DLT required for predicting the DLT exists, the DLT will be predicted based on the previous DLT. Syntax related to the DLT is included in the PPS. Furthermore, first bit-depth information related to first depth samples of the DLT is also included in the PPS and the first bit-depth information is consistent with second bit-depth information signaled in a sequence level data for second depth samples of a sequence containing the pictures.
