  • Patent number: 8125787
    Abstract: The frame assembly mainly contains a number of linear edge members and a number of L-shaped corner members end-to-end joining the edge members by a number of connection pieces into a rectangular frame surrounding a touch panel. Both the edge and corner members have a C-shaped cross section with a space inside for holding circuit boards of the touch panel. The circuit boards of the corner and edge members are aligned so that their connectivity by matching connectors is easily established when putting the frame assembly together.

  • Patent number: 7995042
    Abstract: The dimension detection system is implemented in cascaded circuit boards housed inside a frame assembly of the touch screen. After the frame assembly is assembled and powered, the dimension detection system in the circuit boards would provide horizontal and vertical feedback signals which are utilized to obtain the size of the touch screen. The size information of the touch screen could then be provided to the computer or embedded system where the touch screen is connected, preventing troublesome manual configuration. The dimension detection system and the flexible frame assembly together make the touch screen's production, storage, transportation, and usage more efficient and friendly.

  • Publication number: 20100134441
    Abstract: An optic touch control screen module includes a plurality of frame members of various sizes and joint members that are combined to form a frame. Each of the frame members and the joint members forms a receiving chamber. Every two opposite ones of the circuit boards are provided with oppositely arranged and corresponding optic transmitting elements and optic receiving elements. Each circuit board has opposite ends each forming a female connector. A plurality of male connectors is provided and each has a structure having two faces forming male terminals. To assemble, the male connector is set between and engages with the female connectors of two adjacent circuit boards. Thus, damage to the circuit boards can be avoided.

  • Patent number: 7130187
    Abstract: This invention is directed as “a device of hard disk shock-resistance”, mainly consists of an outer frame, an inner frame, and multiple absorbers. With multiple assembly and tool holes arranged in appropriate position, the absorbers are snapped in-between the assembly holes of the outer and inner frames to create a buffer area which protects hard disk from breaking down in severe shocking environments, while it is still convenient to mount and dismount the hard disk with easy unit assembly.

  • Patent number: 5941333
    Abstract: A bicycle includes a pedal-activated spindle, a sprocket-mounting sleeve and a front sprocket sleeved fixedly on the sleeve. A planetary gear train interconnects the spindle and the sleeve, thereby rotating the sleeve at a speed larger than that of the spindle. When a pedaling torque applied to the bicycle is above a predetermined torque, a ring gear of the train rotates in a casing. The ring gear is limited to rotate between a non-pushing position and a greatest-displacement position, and is biased by a spring to the non-pushing position. When the ring gear rotates from the non-pushing position by a predetermined angle, a sensing unit activates a motor unit so as to drive an auxiliary electrical transmission, thereby transferring a torque from the auxiliary electrical transmission to the sleeve. A first one-way clutch interconnects the train and the sleeve so that the output of the train can be transferred to the sleeve while preventing the rotation of the sleeve from being transferred to the train.
