  • Publication number: 20180090840
    Abstract: An antenna structure includes a substrate, a metal element, and a feeding element. The metal element has an open slot. The open slot forms a first resonant path. The substrate is disposed on the metal element. The feeding element is disposed on the substrate, and the metal element and the feeding element are respectively disposed on two opposite sides of the substrate. The feeding element includes a feeding end and a shorting end electrically connected to the metal element. An orthogonal projection of the feeding element on the metal element is partially overlapped with the open slot. The feeding element forms a second resonant path extending from the feeding end to the shorting end. The antenna structure operates in a first band through the first resonant path and operates in a second band through the second resonant path.

  • Publication number: 20170207544
    Abstract: A slot antenna structure for an electronic tag includes a dielectric layer, a conductor layer, a slot area and a capacitance adjustment unit. The electronic tag includes an identification chip. The conductor layer is disposed on the dielectric layer. The slot area is disposed in the conductor layer and includes an open slot, an open end and at least one closed slot. The open end is located at an edge of the conductor layer and extends inwardly to form the open slot for disposing the identification chip. The open slot has two sidewalls, and the two sidewalls have at least one turning point at a bottom portion of the open slot to form the closed slot. The capacitance adjustment unit is disposed on a surface of the dielectric layer different from the conductor layer to correspond to the slot area, thereby generating a capacitance effect.

  • Publication number: 20110317449
    Abstract: The present invention provides an alternating current regulating means including a positive half-cycle current-limiting circuit and a negative half-cycle current-limiting circuit. The positive half-cycle current-limiting circuit includes a first diode and a first current-limiting circuit. The negative half-cycle current-limiting circuit includes a second diode and a second current-limiting circuit. The first diode allows the positive half-cycle current of the alternating current to pass through, and the second diode allows the negative half-cycle current of the alternating current to pass through. Thus, when the input power supply generates an alternating current, the first diode and the second diode respectively allow the positive half-cycle current and the negative half-cycle current of the alternating current to pass through.

  • Patent number: 7804416
    Abstract: Methods and systems for tracking users and providing services are provided. The system comprises a plurality of pressure sensors, a storage unit, at least one service providing unit having a service, and a signal processing unit. The pressure sensors detect pressure applied thereon at a specific time point, and correspondingly generate sensed signals. The signal processing unit receives the sensed signals from the pressure sensors, and stores the sensed signals to the storage unit. The signal processing unit calculates a current state of an object according to the sensed signals and historical sensed signals and historical states of the object in the storage unit, and determines one of the at least one service providing unit according to the current state to activate service thereof.

  • Patent number: 7332872
    Abstract: An external electronic control type electrodeless lamp includes a lighting device. The lighting device includes a body having at least a first conductive plate and a second conductive plate. Each conductive plate is electrically connected to an electronic control system external to the lighting device. The body has a plurality of even-numbered sides. The number of the sides of the body is at least four. The conductive plates are mounted on at least two opposite sides of the body. The electronic control system includes a magnetic core that, when energized, creates a magnetic field, and current generated due to change in the magnetic field is supplied to the conductive plates to light the lighting device.

  • Publication number: 20070035228
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an electrode-less flat lamp, which comprises oppositely located first and second flat plates, at least one enclosing wall mounted around the region between the first and second flat plates to define a sealing chamber, and a magnetic core attached to the outside of the second flat plate, wherein at least one of the first and second flat plates is pervious to visible lights. The present invention is characterized in that: a plurality of support pillars are extended integrally from the inside of at least one of the first and second flat plates, and the support pillars are tapered from respective bottoms toward respective free ends so that the support pillars can block fewer visible lights by point shape contact with the visible lights when a fluorescence material is excited by an electromagnetic wave of the magnetic core for emitting the visible lights.
