  • Patent number: 7893629
    Abstract: The invention discloses a backlight apparatus. The backlight apparatus includes a power source, a lamp, a balance transformer, a detecting circuit, a judging module, and a controlling module. The balance transformer includes a primary winding electrically connected to the power source and a secondary winding corresponding to the primary winding and electrically connected to the lamp. The detecting circuit is used for detecting a current generated by the secondary winding and generating a first voltage according to the current. The judging module is used for judging whether the value of the first voltage is smaller than a default value. The controlling module is used for controlling the power source according to a judgment made by the judging module.

  • Publication number: 20090160353
    Abstract: The invention discloses a multi-lamp backlight apparatus. The multi-lamp backlight apparatus includes a first lamp, a second lamp, a controlling unit, a resonating unit, and a balance transformer. The controlling unit is used for generating a controlling signal. The resonating unit is used for converting the controlling signal into a resonating signal. The balance transformer includes a primary winding, a first secondary winding, and a second secondary winding. The primary winding is used for receiving the resonating signal. The first secondary winding is corresponding to the primary winding and coupled to the first lamp. The second secondary winding is corresponding to the primary winding and coupled to the second lamp.

  • Patent number: 6089946
    Abstract: A spinning top includes a driving device and a series of tops. The driving device includes a motor driving a clutch, and each top has a seat for temporary engagement with the clutch which drives the top to spin. The driving device comprises a control switch which links the power to the motor and the linking mechanisms to the clutch. By adjusting the control switch, the motor is started, which drives the clutch to spin. Pressing the control switch further disengages the top from the clutch so that the top will spin itself. Further, the top portion of the top is shaped with a concave portion for receiving another top stacked thereon, by engaging the concave portion with the seat of another top.
