  • Publication number: 20220030728
    Abstract: A fixing mechanism, applied to an electronic device to fix an electronic module. The fixing mechanism comprises a casing, a fixing structure and a locking structure. The casing includes a baseplate and a side plate to define a space to accommodate the electronic module, and the side plate has a hole and a seat. The fixing structure includes a fixing element and a pressing portion. The fixing element movably extends from the outer side of the side plate into the space through the hole. The pressing portion is rotatably disposed on the combining seat, and includes a first part having an opening and a second part corresponding to the fixing element. The locking structure is movably set in the opening, and includes an engaging element. When the engaging element is engaged in the opening, the locking structure presses against the side plate to fix the pressing portion.

  • Publication number: 20210273106
    Abstract: Operations in fabricating a Fin FET include providing a substrate having a fin structure, where an upper portion of the fin structure has a first fin surface profile. An isolation region is formed on the substrate and in contact with the fin structure. A portion of the isolation region is recessed by an etch process to form a recessed portion and to expose the upper portion of the fin structure, where the recessed portion has a first isolation surface profile. A thermal hydrogen treatment is applied to the fin structure and the recessed portion. A gate dielectric layer is formed with a substantially uniform thickness over the fin structure, where the recessed portion is adjusted from the first isolation surface profile to a second isolation surface profile and the fin structure is adjusted from the first fin surface profile to a second fin surface profile, by the thermal hydrogen treatment.

  • Publication number: 20200040900
    Abstract: A thin cooling fan includes a fan shell, a motor, a plurality of blades, and a PCB. The fan shell comprises a base plate and a shell cover which cover to each other to form an inner space. The base plate has a first surface facing toward the inner space and a second surface having a receiving space and opposite to the first surface. The motor is combined in the inner space. The blades are disposed in the inner space and rotated by the motor. The PCB is disposed in the receiving space and flush with the second surface. Thus, the whole thickness of the cooling fan is reduced and the flow channel design in the inner space is not affected.

  • Patent number: 10361494
    Abstract: A wire connection terminal structure includes a terminal main body and a stopper member. One end of the terminal main body is formed with a connection section. Two support legs extend from the connection section for securely connecting with a preset circuit board. The connection section defines a socket. An elastic abutment plate obliquely extends from the connection section between the two support legs. A locating section is disposed at one end of each support leg. The stopper member is securely connected to the support legs via the locating sections. A stop face is formed on one side of one end of the stopper member proximal to the connection section and positioned in the moving path of the elastic abutment plate when elastically deformed. After the elastic abutment plate is forced, the deformation amount of the elastic abutment plate is restricted by the stop face.
