Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a CMOS image sensor having a multiple deep trench isolation (MDTI) structure, and an associated method of formation. In some embodiments, the image sensor comprises a boundary deep trench isolation (BDTI) structure disposed at boundary regions of a pixel region surrounding a photodiode. The BDTI structure has a ring shape from a top view and two columns surrounding the photodiode with the first depth from a cross-sectional view. A multiple deep trench isolation (MDTI) structure is disposed at inner regions of the pixel region overlying the photodiode, the MDTI structure extending from the back-side of the substrate to a second depth within the substrate smaller than the first depth. The MDTI structure has three columns with the second depth between the two columns of the BDTI structure from the cross-sectional view. The MDTI structure is a continuous integral unit having a ring shape.

Abstract: A string pulling mechanism includes a rolling assembly, a rotary shaft, a unidirectional bearing, two rollers, a switch, and a swing lever. The holder has a first accommodation portion, an opening, and a first coupling orifice. The unidirectional bearing includes an internal ring and an external ring having multiple teeth, the two rollers are fixed on the rotary shaft, and the switch is inserted to the opening of the rolling assembly and is rotatably connected with the rolling assembly. The switch is received into the opening so as to control the external ring to rotate or not rotate. The swing lever disposed on a side of the rolling assembly to actuate the rotary shaft, the internal ring of the unidirectional bearing, and the two rollers to rotate. The string is fixed on the two rollers and are inserted through and connected with a pull seat.

Abstract: In trigger labor-saving structure of a crossbow, the crossbow includes a body, an arcuate limb, and a trigger assembly. The limb is mounted adjacent to a front end of the body and intersects with the body, and the limb includes a bowstring. The trigger assembly includes: a trigger seat arranged on the body, a trigger partially accommodated in the trigger seat and downward extending out of the trigger seat, with the trigger having a stop face; a string hook member housed in the trigger seat and including an engagement face corresponding to the stop face; and at least one concave portion formed on the engagement face of the string hook member and defined between a first periphery and a second periphery of the engagement face. Thus, frictional resistance between the stop face and the engagement face reduces.
