  • Publication number: 20220140562
    Abstract: A optical path structure and a cross line laser comprising the same are provided. The optical path structure comprises a laser emitter (1) for emitting laser light, and the following devices arranged sequentially along the direction of the optical path of the laser light: an aspherical mirror (2), a first beamsplitter (31) and a second beamsplitter (32), a wedge-shaped mirror (4), and a cylindrical mirror (5). The advantages of the present invention are that: 1) the angle of the incident surface (41) of the wedge-shaped mirror (4) is reasonably set such that the light ray reflected by the incident surface (41) of the wedge-shaped mirror (4) cannot emit onto the beamsplitters (31, 32), or even if it emits onto the beamsplitters (31, 32), there is no interference with the reflected light rays (61, 63) by the beamsplitters (31, 32), avoiding the multiple-point phenomenon; 2) the structure of the wedge-shaped mirror (4) is reasonably set such that the breakpoints in the projected laser light line are eliminated.

  • Patent number: 10970263
    Abstract: The computer system and method described herein attempt to address the deficiencies by analyzing all relevant data points for each test and control location collectively determine outliers and then exclude the individual outlier data points from the data when analyzing an initiative during a relevant test period. Rather than exclude outliers at the site level, the particular time increment having the outlier data can be extracted and the site can remain in the analysis.

  • Patent number: 10712154
    Abstract: A laser level comprising a first laser module and a second laser module, each comprising a laser diode and an optical unit, a holder arranging the first laser module and the second laser module in a fixed relative position, and a housing, in which the holder is suspended with a gimbal or ball joint. Each optical unit comprises a collimating lens arranged along the beam path following the laser diode, and configured for collimating a beam emitted by the laser diode; a pair of partially transmitting mirrors, each arranged along the beam path following the collimating lens, and configured for laterally reflecting less than half of the collimated beam in terms of the beam cross-section, and in terms of the beam intensity; and a cylindrical lens arranged along the beam path following the pair of partially transmitting mirrors, and configured for shaping the collimated beam into a fan beam.

  • Patent number: 9785162
    Abstract: An LDO with high efficiency receives an input voltage from an input power line and outputs an output voltage at an output power line. The LDO includes a first active device, a second active device, an operational amplifier and a protection circuit. The first and second active devices are connected in series between the input and output power lines via a connecting node. The operational amplifier controls the second active device according to the output voltage and a core power voltage of a core power line to cause the output voltage to stabilize at a target voltage value. The protection circuit is connected to the input and output power lines, the connecting node and a control node of the first active device, and controls a voltage of the connecting node and the control node of the first active device according to the input and output voltages.

  • Patent number: 9350403
    Abstract: A receiver includes a control module, a data receiving circuit and a masking circuit. The control circuit generates an enable signal according to a pair of differential signals provided by a transmitter. Triggered by the enable signal, the data receiving circuits generates an output signal according to the differential signals, and the masking circuit starts masking the output signal. After generating the enable signal, the control module starts providing a bias voltage to the differential signals such that the output signal has a first state. The transmitter adjusts the differential signals to render the output signal to enter a second state from the first state. Upon detecting the output signal having entered the second state, the control module stops providing the bias voltage and generates a disable signal to prompt the masking circuit to stop masking the output signal.

  • Patent number: 9316498
    Abstract: A cross line laser (100) comprises a shell and a hanging system (101). The hanging system has two laser modules (110) arranged oppositely on a same plane. Each laser module comprises a laser device (121), a collimation device (130), and a cylindrical lens (140). The cylindrical lens has a high refraction index. Lasers emitted by the laser device passes through the collimation device and are incident on the cylindrical lens, and are split by the cylindrical lens to form laser rays with a diffusion angle approximately larger than 180 degrees. Horizontal laser rays generated by the two laser modules intersect with each other, so as to form laser rays with a diffusion angle of 360 degrees.
