  • Patent number: 7757984
    Abstract: A food processor includes a control unit that is operable in accordance with an initial control signal from a switch unit so as to activate a motor unit to operate in a sequence of an initial judgment mode and a food processing mode. The control unit switches operation of the motor unit from the initial judgment mode to the food processing mode upon determining a first target rotary speed in accordance with a motor rotation signal generated by a sensor unit for indicating a rotary speed of the motor unit during operation of the motor unit in the initial judgment mode so as to drive rotation of a cutting blade unit provided in a container to process food items contained in the container. The control unit activates the motor unit to rotate at a second target rotary speed associated with the first target rotary speed during operation of the motor unit in the food processing mode.

  • Patent number: 7701166
    Abstract: A multi-functional power supply device comprises: a secondary cell, a charging circuit, a controller, and a first connection unit. The secondary cell is used to store electrical energy, and produces a first voltage and a second voltage. When the first connection unit is electrically connected to a solar board, the charging circuit receives the electrical energy which is transformed from the solar board and is then stored in the secondary cell. The controller controls the second voltage to produce at least one output voltage to an application apparatus. Moreover, when the first connection unit changes to connect with a lighting device, the secondary cell provides the first voltage to the lighting device directly. Hence, the present invention provides power to the application apparatus, and produces a light source through the lighting device at the same time.

  • Patent number: 7290724
    Abstract: A blender includes a container mounted removably on a housing for containing food items and provided with a cutting blade unit that is to be driven rotatably by a motor unit when the container is mounted on the housing. A control unit is operable in accordance with an initial control signal from a switch unit so as to activate the motor unit to operate in a judgment mode. The control unit determines food processing conditions in accordance with a motor rotation signal generated by a sensor unit for indicating a rotary speed of the motor unit when the motor unit is operated in the judgment mode. The control unit switches operation of the motor unit from the judgment mode to a food processing mode upon determining the food processing conditions so as to drive rotation of the cutting blade unit to blend the food items contained in the container.

  • Patent number: 7185450
    Abstract: A pressing iron includes a soleplate which has upwardly and downwardly facing major surfaces opposite to each other. A shell includes a peripheral wall which extends upwardly from a periphery of the soleplate to terminate at an upper peripheral edge, and which defines an air passageway that extends longitudinally. The peripheral wall is formed with a vent port disposed downstream of the air passageway. A ventilation facilitating mechanism is disposed upstream of the vent port to increase flow of air through the air passageway and out of the vent port so as to accelerate a cooling process of the flowing air that draws residual heat off the soleplate after the pressing iron is turned off.
