  • Patent number: 8172186
    Abstract: A display support seat is mounted on a display, such that the display is able to be located on a plane after being supported. In the present invention, a main seat and a cover are mounted to form an accommodation space, and the display is mounted on the main seat. Also, the accommodation space is provided for a main board module to be disposed therein, so as to form a computer host. In such a manner, assembly space demands for a computer and a display is effectively reduced. Moreover, a user may select that the present invention merely serves as a support seat, or merely serves as a computer host, or serve as a support seat and a computer host at the same time depending on practical use demands.

  • Patent number: 8025264
    Abstract: A display support device is provided, which is disposed at a rear surface of a display, such that the display is able to be suspended on a main support bracket arranged at a wall. The support bracket disclosed in the present invention is provided with one more hooks, for connecting the support bracket to the support bracket body. Furthermore, a positioning bar having a fastening function is pivoted on the support bracket body, so as to fasten the support bracket to a contact surface of the main support bracket by means of the positioning bar after being connected to the main support bracket, such that the main support bracket can be more firmly positioned, thus preventing the support bracket from releasing from the main support bracket due to vibration, and improving the fastness and safety in use.

  • Publication number: 20110011996
    Abstract: An angle adjusting device for a display is provided. The angle adjusting device is mounted on a rear surface of a display to suspend the display onto a main support bracket, and achieve an effect of securing. By using the angle adjusting device for a display, the display is secured at an optimal viewing angle for a user under normal watching conditions in mounting, for example, at a tilt of 5 or 10 degrees. Thus, the adjusting device achieves angle adjustment as required, and effectively secure the displays at a required angle.

  • Patent number: 7567295
    Abstract: A new video system and processor for computer is disclosed. In accordance to the present video processor that is capable of receiving TV signals and driving partial computer devices (such as a LCD panel) without starting the computer's operating system, the computer may display TV videos on the display panel of the computer without turning on the main power and the operating system. Furthermore, by returning the partial video processes to the CPU and VGA after the operating system is started, it may achieve the goals for displaying TV programs or working as a regular monitor when computer starts normally. The present video processor comprises an initial control unit, a data conversion unit, a panel drive, a memory control unit, a switch unit, a video compression unit, an I/O interface, and two selective modules.

  • Patent number: 7283733
    Abstract: The invention is directed to a system and method for regulating a load (such as a CPU). A pulse-width-modulation (PWM) regulator calculates the duty cycle of the control pulse from a PWM controller, and then compares the duty cycle to a predetermined threshold. Thereafter, the PWM regulator regulates working conditions, such as clock frequency, supplied voltage, or fan spin speed, based on the above comparison.

  • Patent number: 6822841
    Abstract: A circuit board includes a power switch operable so as to generate a trigger signal upon actuation, a card slot adapted for connecting with a video card, and a controller coupled electrically to the power switch and the card slot. The controller detects connection of the video card to the card slot and further detects operating voltage of the video card. The controller inhibits the power switch from generating the trigger signal upon detection that the operating voltage of the video card that is connected to the card slot is higher than a predetermined voltage.
