Product technology forecasting is an effective method to keep enterprises' competitive advantage for a long term. Technology evolution theory in TRIZ can provide theory guidance for technology forecasting. On the basis of introducing technology evolution mode and route in TRIZ, a method of how to search technology evolution potential of product and constructing radar plot of evolution potentials were proposed. And then product technology evolution potential forecasting technology is systematically summarized. Product technology evolution potential mapping system (EPMS), a special software based on product technology evolution potential forecasting technology was developed. This system can assist enterprises to rapidly, accurately grasp the technical trend of product. As an illustration, the evolution potential of seal technology of butterfly valve is mapped by EPMD.

This paper summarized several function and behavior representation methods for mechatronic products, in which these methods were classified according to both semantic and syntactic representation schemes. It was proposed that “natural language sentences” could be used to represent not only function but also behavior, and the “input\|output flow” could be either “flow of object (i.e. energy, material and signal)” or “flow of action (physical interaction)”. Furthermore, the feasibility of these representation methods for different types of design problems were discussed. Finally, future research prospects were proposed.

Due to the reason that the numeric result of magnetic field FEM is a magnetic vector, it should be transformed to engineering physical parameters. To directly observe the distribution situation of magnetic field, it is necessary to qualitatively represent the distribution of magnetic field by distribution diagram. The magnetic vector contour and magnetic flux density cloud contour were implemented using object\|oriented programming method. The smoothness method was proposed in cloud contour. The property of magnetic field, reflected by distribution diagram, accords well with the result of practical experiment. 

 Actively driving an inner micro-robot by an outer magnetic field for diagnosis is a feasible and crucial driven method. However, How to generate suitable outer magnetic is a complex problem. Comparing with the common methods adopting assembled electromagnetic loops to generate a driving field, an innovative and simple method was presented, by which permanent magnets were assembled to generate a rotational magnetic field. The circumferentially arrayed permanent magnet was adjusted to the corresponding original azimuth, and then synchronization rotation generated rotating magnetic field in the center of the array to work as the driving field of micro-robot. Furthermore, theoretic analysis and numeric calculation of the magnetic induction intensity distribution of the array center was carried out and a test-bed was established. The experimental results indicate that when circumferentially array six cubic magnets with 50 mm×50 mm×18 mm at the diameter of 275 mm, an even magnetic field of 0.012T can be generated in the central space,±50 mm×±50 mm×±20 mm, of the array. This magnetic field rotates with the same velocity as the outer magnet does, but in the reverse direction. The method, with wide application foreground, can be applied to generate a magnetic field to drive a micro robot, for diagnosis and treatment.

Compact power divider is a crucial part in microwave signal dividing and antenna array feeds. A composite right/left-handed transmission line (CRLH-TL) was applied to design of a small-size series power divider and theoretic analysis of its dispersion characteristics was conducted. A novel CRLH-TL by utilizing chip capacitors and micro-strip inductors was presented. The CRLH-TL at zero-order resonant frequency does not induce phase shift and supports an infinite wavelength, and then based on its vibrating properties, a 4 series microwave power divider working at 2.45 Hz was designed and manufactured. This divider equally divided input power to each output port and the position of output port had no influence on it. The manufactured divider was measured by a vector network analyzer. The magnitude difference between output ports is less than 1 dB from 2.20 GHz to 2.65 GHz,and the phase difference between output ports is less than 15° from 2.22 GHz to 2.56 GHz. The measured results well accord with the simulated results. In addition, this divider is very compact and flexible, and can be extended to an random number of output ports.

Through the investigation on kelp comprehensive process workflow, the drawbacks of in this process was proposed as well as the feasible technical scheme of adding dehydration step and reducing the salt amount putting into kelp to create considerable economic profit and decrease the resource waste. After completely analyzing the dehydration step in kelp comprehensive process, automatic dehydration by adopting centrifugal effect, natural dehydration by prolonging the producing line and dehydration by pressing were proposed. Multiple experiments indicate that the effect of natural dehydration is not satisfactory, and the implementation of centrifugal dehydration is hard and the most feasible design scheme is dehydration by pressing. Finally, a feasible design scheme of pressing dehydration is put forward and the assembly drawings of the whole pressing mechanism are provided. The application in field demonstrates that this dehydration mechanism is reasonable and it has high efficiency in dehydration. Additionally, it is practical and can fulfill the requirements of producing. 
