Abstract: This disclosure is directed to a sunroof device having a window frame assembly, a pair of linkage assemblies, a panel assembly, a first electrical connector and a second electrical connector. The window frame assembly has a pair of rails. The linkage assemblies are disposed on the rails respectively. The panel assembly is disposed on the pair of linkage assemblies. The first electrical connector on the window frame assembly has a plugging slot and an opening, the opening is located at a side of the first electrical connector and extended to a top of the first electrical connector. The second electrical connector on the panel assembly has a conductive terminal. When the panel assembly rotates, the conductive terminal is plugged in the plugging slot through the opening and movable with the panel assembly in the opening.

Abstract: Two energy dissipation devices, each comprising a first plate, a plurality of spaced tapered plates, a plurality of cylinders, a plurality of washers, and a base frame. The devices can absorb seismic energy through the yielding of the tapered plates and effectively reduce a building vibration response during an earthquake. The devices are particularly suitable for use in building structures that must be designed to dissipate a large amount of seismic energy to achieve economical earthquake-resistant construction.
