Publication number: 20130072105Abstract: A ventilating fan includes a sirocco fan disposed in a box-shaped body and an adapter connected to an air outlet of the sirocco fan. The sirocco fan is composed of two opposite scroll plates with scroll shapes and a casing plate sandwiched between the two scroll plates. An overall air inlet of the sirocco fan is disposed on the first scroll plate and a central line of the air outlet of the adapter is offset towards the second scroll plate. The present invention is advantageous in that no turbulence is generated at the adapter and the wind amount of the ventilating fan is thus ensured and noise is reduced. Therefore, the present invention can provide a small air blowing device with high efficiency and improve stability of performance of the product.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 10, 2011Publication date: March 21, 2013Applicants: PANASONIC CORPORATION, PANASONIC ECOLOGY SYSTEMS GUANGDONG CO., LTD.Inventors: Zhenjian Yang, Shouyong Gao, Jingtao Yang, Min Long, Zewei Rao, Jianrong Zhu

Patent number: 6452980Abstract: An apparatus is described for reducing coherent signal interference between at least two bit streams framed with a common clock signal. The apparatus includes an internal clock signal generated from the common clock signal and a Manchester encoder for encoding the internal clock signal with a unique signature. Also included is a logic AND-gate for combining one bit stream of the two bit streams with the encoded clock signal to produce an encoded output signal. When the encoded output signal is combined with another of the two bit streams during transmission, individual bits of the combined bit streams are identifiable at a receiving end. The receiving end decodes the combined bit streams and properly discriminates between ONEs and ZEROs.Type: GrantFiled: January 10, 2000Date of Patent: September 17, 2002Assignees: Sarnoff Corporation, Secom Company, LTDInventors: Peter Zalud, Jonathan Schepps, Robert Evans, Min-Long Lin

Patent number: 5690187Abstract: A life-saying travel bag includes a suitably long, wide and durable rope sewn with a zipper on each side such that the rope forms a substantially cylindrical bag when the side zippers are closed. A fastening mechanism is disposed near either end on the inside of the bag, and a fastening strap is arranged at either end of the bag for connecting to a shoulder strap for carrying. An upper cover and a lower cover are respectively connected to the ends of the bag by zippers. The upper cover accommodates a speed control means which has a narrow recess at its center for containing an adjusting rod with an eccentric shaft. The ends of the shaft are connected to a control lever which may bring the adjusting rod to rotate towards or away from the opening of the recess so that the rod may be retained at or disengage from the opening to achieve the object of control. The zippers may be opened so that the rope is extended to its full length.Type: GrantFiled: August 12, 1996Date of Patent: November 25, 1997Inventors: Wen-Chung Wang, Min-Long Chuang
