Editor’s note: Under the organization of the Technology Transfer Center of our university, SUES has demonstrated seven scientific university-enterprise innovative achievements with proprietary intellectual property rights so as to display the level of technological innovation and comprehensive scientific and technological strength and reflect our university’s disciplinary characteristics. The foregoing seven innovative achievements are highly technologically mature and have been sent to participate into the 6th China (Shanghai) International Technology Import and Export Fair (abbreviated as “Shangdang Fair”), and have gained good results. This participation has promoted the transfer and transformation of our university’s scientific and technological achievements and improve our university’s ability to serve the community.
At the 6th China (Shanghai) International Technology Import and Export Fair held from April 19th to 21st, the participating project, the Inter-rail Normalized Fire Intelligent Control Equipment for Rail Welding Heads (invented by Gao Fei, the teacher from the School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering of our university) won the “Technology Trading Potential Award”. The “Panning-Washing Intelligent Cleaning and Protecting System” brought by Deng Yangyang (a graduate from the School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering) won “Top Ten Popular Project Award” as a scientific and technological achievement of student entrepreneurship.
The members of the technology transfer marketing team actively promoted our university’s scientific and technological achievements through the platform of Shanghai Fair. In the seamless welding of steel rails, the grains of the rail connection part become larger at high temperatures, affecting the performance of the connected part of the metal, and thus grain refinement and even carbide distribution must be achieved through secondary heating. In the past, “acetylene+oxygen”, the artificial fire heating method was used to achieve such result. The Inter-rail Normalized Fire Intelligent Control Equipment for Rail Welding Heads created by Gao Fei adpots the principle of electromagnetic induction and is used to generate heat in the eddy current inside the metal, making temperature of the rail welding part controlled in the specified area, and grain refinement of the rail joint portion is thus realized. The project participated in the project roadshow in Shanghai universities exhibition area. After evaluation made by the field experts and professional technology brokers, it stood out among many participating roadshow projects and won the “Technology Trading Potential Award”.
The “Panning-Washing Intelligent Cleaning and Protecting System” brought by Deng Yangyang, a graduate from the School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering of SUES, was recommended as a scientific and technological achievement for students’ entrepreneurship. This project changed the traditional coin-operated laundry model. Through the “Internet of Things hardware + SAAS software”, the invention realizes the construction of intelligent washing ecological platform, and are being put into practice in some colleges and universities. The project was voted by the audience and won the “Top Ten Popular Project Award” of the 6th China (Shanghai) International Technology Import and Export Fair. This is also the only award-winning project for colleges and universities in Shanghai. It is an excellent example of a comprehensive quality training and innovative ability practices for the new engineering students in our university.
The following projects also participated into this Fair: “Ankle Joint Rehabilitation Robot”, “Industrialization of Additive Manufacturing”, “Virtual Reality Comprehensive Experiment Center”, “A System for Detecting the Full-face Surface Parameters of Tracks”, and “Aircraft Switch and Fatigue Life Testing System”, “Key Technologies for Lyocell Bamboo Fiber Ecological Processing and Industrialization” and so on.
