  • Patent number: 9954749
    Abstract: A detection circuit is used to detect a connection state between a first signal port of an electronic device and a first external device. The detection circuit includes a signal generator, a switch module, a signal detector, and a processing unit. The signal generator generates a test signal. During a test process, the signal generator is electrically connected to the first signal port by the switch module, such that the test signal is sent to the first signal port to test the connection state of the first signal port. The signal detector produces a detection signal according to the connection state of the first signal port. The processing unit determines the state of connection between the first signal port and the first external device by comparing the voltage of the detection signal with a threshold value.

  • Patent number: 9884222
    Abstract: A multifunctional treadmill is provided with a platform on the running deck. A reception cavity is formed on a top of the platform, the reception cavity has a sensor and an operating board tiltably mounted on one side of the reception cavity. When the operating board is released for the reception cavity, the treadmill is in a standard speed mode. When the user wants to exercise and work or do other activities at the same time, the user can store the operating board into the reception cavity so that the operating board and a top surface of the platform become a workbench. Simultaneously, the sensor is triggered and the treadmill changes to a low speed mode. Thus, the safety may be improved by forcefully restricting the speed of the running deck.

  • Publication number: 20120201975
    Abstract: Disclosed is aqua-printing gelatinous film and aqua-printing method using the same, in which a UV coating layer is formed on the surface of a water soluble gelatinous film, and a pattern is printed thereon, after that a protecting layer is covered over there so as to make up the aqua-printing gelatinous film which is brought to print on the surface of a working piece. Then the work piece is radiated with the UV ray from a UV lamp thereby pattern is fixedly printed on the work piece. The working process is simple, efficient and neat without causing pollution.
