  • Publication number: 20150034627
    Abstract: An electric heating member includes a position plate, a connecting plate extending out from a first side of the position plate, a first cable, a second cable, and a number of electric heat tabs. The first cable includes a first conductive portion arranged on the first side of the position plate, and a first extension portion extending to the connecting plate for being electrically coupled to a power supply. The second cable includes a second conductive portion arranged on a second side of the position plate opposite to the first conductive portion, and a second extension portion extending to the connecting plate for being electrically coupled to the power supply. The electric heat tabs are set on the position plate and arrayed along a lengthwise direction of the position plate. The electric heat tabs are connected to the first conductive portion and the second conductive portion in parallel.

  • Patent number: 7158712
    Abstract: An optical fiber coupler and manufacturing apparatus and method thereof aim to provide a loading fixture and a clamping device to fabricate 1×4, 2×4 and 4×4 optical fiber couplers, and also improve driving mechanisms and operation of the packaging station and the entire manufacturing equipment. The 1×4 optical fiber coupler fabricated by means of the invention can split an optical signal more evenly and has a higher production yield. The total size of the equipment is smaller and the structure is less complicated, and the construction cost is lower.

  • Publication number: 20060249596
    Abstract: A torch device and method for optical fiber couplers is provided to generate a high temperature flame. The apparatus includes air inlets to channel air, and a Venturi tube structure to increase the flow speed of a fuel gas to generate negative pressure to draw in air and accelerate mixing, so that the gas fuel and air are pre-mixed at a desired ratio to produce a high temperature flame. The bare portion of optical fibers may thus be heated rapidly to reach the desired fusion temperature.

  • Patent number: 6810665
    Abstract: A stirling engine with variable stroke can change output power in the same rotating speed. By an adjuster, it changes the contact position of the piston connecting rods and the swash plate to cause the connecting rods have different track on the swash plate. Then there will produce different distance to change the stroke of the piston of the engine. It changes the torque to control the output power.
