  • Patent number: 9980520
    Abstract: An inhaler comprising a reservoir of an inhalable composition, a heater to selectably volatilize at least some components of the composition, and a power source arranged to selectively supply electrical power to the heater when the user inhales from the inhaler. The power source is arranged to heat the heater to a temperature that will volatilize some, but not all of the components of the composition.

  • Patent number: 9660399
    Abstract: An electrical connector comprises an insulating housing, several first and second conductive terminals, an inner grounding unit, and an outer grounding unit, which are disposed on the insulating housing. The insulating housing has a first surface, an opposite second surface, and two side surfaces arranged between the first and second surfaces. The inner grounding unit has a plate embedded in the insulating housing and two protruding sheets extended from the plate and respectively protruding from the side surfaces of the insulating housing. The plate is arranged to separate the first conductive terminals from the second conductive terminals. The outer grounding unit clips the insulating housing and engages the protruding sheets. A portion of the outer grounding unit engaged with one of the protruding sheets includes two stacked engaging portions, and at least one of the two stacked engaging portions has a thru-hole for engaging with the corresponding protruding sheet.

  • Patent number: 9105962
    Abstract: An antenna mount includes a main member, a first contacting member, a second contacting member, and a driving member. The main member has a chamber therein to receive the first contacting member, the second contacting member and the driving member. The first contacting member electrically connects to a signal wire of a cable for signal transmission, and the main member electrically connects to a ground wire of the cable. Two ends of the second contacting member are respectively connected to the main member and contacted with the first contacting member, wherein the second contacting member has a predetermined resistance. Once a connector of an antenna is engaged, the driving member is moved to separate the second contacting member and the first contacting member; and when the connector of the antenna is disengaged, the second contacting member contacts with the first contacting member again as a protective circuit.

  • Patent number: 8622768
    Abstract: A connector with a capacitively coupled connector interface for interconnection with a female portion is provided with an annular groove, with a sidewall, open to an interface end of the female portion. A male portion is provided with a male outer conductor coupling surface at an interface end, covered by an outer conductor dielectric spacer. The male outer conductor coupling surface is dimensioned to seat, spaced apart from the sidewall by the outer conductor dielectric spacer, within the annular groove, when the male portion and the female portion are in an interlocked position, secured by a releasable retainer dimensioned to secure the male portion and the female portion in the interlocked position.

  • Patent number: 8324751
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to make use of wind energy as effectively as possible and increase the amount of generated energy that is supplied to a power system. A power storage apparatus is interposed between and electrically connected to a wind turbine generator and a power system. The wind turbine generator outputs, to the power system side, an amount of active power obtained by subtracting auxiliary machine loss, which is power consumed by an auxiliary machine, from the maximum active power that can be output by a generator, and if the amount of active power output from the wind turbine generator exceeds a limited power value set for the power transmission end, a charge/discharge controller that controls the power storage apparatus causes the power storage apparatus to be charged with part of the power output from the wind turbine generator.
