Patent number: 9740163Abstract: The present invention relates to a rotational force driving assembly and a process cartridge used for being engaged with a rotational force driving head inside an electrophotographic image forming device. The rotational force driving assembly can comprise a hub, a rotational force receiving component, a side plate, and an axis offset adjusting mechanism. When the axis offset adjusting mechanism is not subjected to external force, the axis offset adjusting mechanism enables the axis of the rotational force receiving component to be parallel and offset to the axis of the hub. When the axis offset adjusting mechanism is subjected to external force, the rotational force receiving component extends out to be engaged with the rotational force driving head.Type: GrantFiled: February 4, 2016Date of Patent: August 22, 2017Assignee: NINESTAR CORPORATIONInventors: Hongbiao Xiao, Jinlian Liu, Chao Wang, Hui Cao, De Chien, Jianxin Cao, Miaoling Yang, Likun Zeng, Geming Ding, Qin Luo, Wenyi Ding, Shuchun Dai, Hailong Ma

Patent number: 9065288Abstract: A current compensation module, a charging apparatus, and a charging apparatus controlling method are disclosed. The current compensation module is used for controlling an outputted charging current in order to charge a battery module. The current compensation module includes a transition unit, a proportional controlling unit, and an integral controlling unit. The transition unit allows an internal signal of the current compensation module increasing from a first voltage. When the internal signal attains to a second voltage, the proportional controlling unit will output a proportional controlling signal to adjust the charging current. When the charging current attains to a rated output current, the integral controlling unit incorporates with the proportional controlling unit to output a proportional-integral controlling signal in order to control and adjust the charging current for the battery module, and to suppress the output overshoot current of the charging apparatus.Type: GrantFiled: April 29, 2013Date of Patent: June 23, 2015Assignee: LITE-ON TECHNOLOGY CORPORATIONInventors: Kai-Jen Pai, Chu-Chung Hsieh, Ming-De Chien

Patent number: 9020613Abstract: A novel sensing system and methods for preventing damage to the cochlea during cochlear implant surgery are disclosed, using optical sensing to determine the distance of a stylet or the end of the implant itself from the interior wall of the scalar tympani. A variety of feedback methods are proposed to enable the surgeon to perform the procedure safely without damage to the basilar membrane or other delicate anatomic structures. Although a number of embodiments are disclosed, one preferred embodiment comprises a robotically manipulated end-effector.Type: GrantFiled: May 1, 2013Date of Patent: April 28, 2015Assignee: The Johns Hopkins UniversityInventors: Russell H. Taylor, John Niparko, Iulian Ioan Iordachita, Wade Wei-De Chien

Publication number: 20110282831Abstract: A device including a virtual drive system is provided. An image file can be identified as an ordinary physical disk drive via the device. The device includes a storage unit, an image management unit, and an operating-system interface. The storage unit is configured to store at least one image file. The image management unit includes an image management program which can manage the image files to be selected. The operating-system interface is connected by electrical signals with an operating-system apparatus and is controlled by the image management program to send a controlling signal to the operating-system apparatus. Therefore, the operating-system apparatus can identify as many physical disk drives as the corresponding selected image files.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 23, 2010Publication date: November 17, 2011Applicant: National Chip Implementation Center National Applied Research LaboratoriesInventors: Chun-Ming Huang, Chien-Ming Wu, Wei-De Chien, Wei-Chang Tsai, Chin-Long Wey, Yu-Tsang Chang

The carrier structure includes a substrate, at least one common die, at least one custom interface and a molding compound. The common die and the custom interface are disposed on the substrate. The molding compound is used to package the common die which electrically connects to the substrate and the custom interface respectively. The carrier structure which includes the common die can form a complete SoC by connecting to an expansive die through the custom interface. The carrier structure with the common die which can be tested and certified in advance allows reducing and simplifying the developing procedures of the SoC.Type: GrantFiled: November 14, 2008Date of Patent: July 13, 2010Assignees: National Applied Research LaboratoriesInventors: Chin-Long Wey, Chun-Ming Huang, Chien-Ming Wu, Chih-Chyan Yang, Wei-De Chien
