Abstract: The present invention provides a shell for a lighting device. The shell comprises a first lamp body, a second lamp body, a first connecting part, and a second connecting part. The ends of the second lamp body have a first end surface and a second end surface. The first connecting part lying along a first direction is set in the first end surface and threads through the first bottom surface. The second connecting part lying along a direction opposite to the first direction is set in the second end surface and threads through the second bottom surface. When the first lamp body is connected with the second lamp body, the two ends of the first lamp body are disposed extending over edges of the first end surface and the second end surface separately.
Abstract: A multi-purpose illumination device includes a lamp-holder body and a portable lighting device detachably installed in the lamp-holder body. The lamp-holder body has a partially transparent cover and a power converter. The power converter converts a utility power into a DC power. The portable lighting device has a housing, a charging circuit, a battery unit, a push-button unit, an LED driving circuit, an LED unit, and a controller. The controller is coupled to the push-button unit, the charging circuit, a detection mechanism, and the LED driving circuit for detecting a button pressing state of the push-button unit, whether there is utility power, and whether the portable lighting device is installed in the lamp-holder body to control the LED driving circuit to drive the LED unit to light. The portable lighting device can also be used as a backup power.
Abstract: A load cell touch control device includes a touch panel, a plurality of load cells and a control unit. The touch panel receives a stress applied thereon. The load cells are implemented in the touch panel to detect respective components of the stress received by the touch panel. The control unit is connected to the load cells in order to receive magnitudes of the respective components to thereby calculate a magnitude, position and motion trace of the stress on the touch panel based on the respective components detected by the load cells in the touch panel.
Abstract: A virtual keyboard apparatus according to the present invention is provided. The virtual keyboard includes a touch-sensitive display and a processing unit. The touch-sensitive display is configured to detect a touch signal including touches of the index, middle and ring fingers of a user's two hands. The processing unit is configured to generate a virtual keyboard on the display according to the touch signal and to adjust a profile of the virtual keyboard according to an average spacing of the finger touches on the display. The present invention further provides a method of manipulating a virtual keyboard.
