  • Publication number: 20040127159
    Abstract: The present invention is a structure of a wave detection filter for wired and wireless platforms. It comprises an antenna, a transmission signal, a signal output, a wave detection module, and a first connector, a second connector and a third connector. The wave detection module comprises an integrated circuit with at least three connectors, which are electrically connected to the corresponding connectors in the structure. By the wave detection and filtering functions of the wave detection module, the EM wave is eliminated, and the quality of the transmission signal is improved.

  • Patent number: 6386735
    Abstract: A decorative tunnel light includes a casing having at least a front window, a front plane reflective mirror closely located behind the front window, a rear convex reflective mirror behind the front mirror with a predetermined distance existing between them, and a light string consisting of a plurality of bulbs located between the front and the rear reflective mirrors with the bulbs equally spaced along and radially inward projected from a periphery of the window. When the bulbs of the light string are lightened, lights from the bulbs repeatedly reflect off the front plane and the rear convex reflective mirrors to show behind the front window a plurality of lines of images of lights that converge in the distance in the tunnel light. The convex reflective mirror may be of any curvature and eccentric from the front window.

  • Patent number: 6332282
    Abstract: A lamp showing movable floating ornaments is provided. The lamp mainly includes a lighting means for emitting light, and a closed clear container for containing and showing liquid and floating ornaments therein. A liquid-guiding means and a propeller are provided in a lower part of the container, and a driving means is provided below the container for turning the propeller. When the propeller is driven to turn, liquid flowing into the lower part of the container via the liquid-guiding means is continuously forced back into an upper part of the container via the liquid-guiding means at increased speed, so that the floating ornaments in the liquid in the container are brought to move around and create dynamic scenes in the container.

  • Patent number: 6309084
    Abstract: A lamp has a transparent glass container in which a clear liquid having a plurality of colored lustrous foil fragments floating in the liquid is contained, and a frosted shade covering the glass container with a clearance left between them. Light projected by the lamp on the floating lustrous foil fragments is refracted onto the frosted shade to show dynamically changeful luster and shadow on the frosted shade, creating novel and unique decorative effect. The glass container and the frosted shade may be of any shape and may have different wall thickness at different locations to enhance the decorative effect of the lamp.

  • Patent number: 6206536
    Abstract: A table lamp having an ornamental liquid container movably connected to a main body thereof, so that the ornamental liquid container tends to swing, rotate and/or turn upside-down under an external force applied on the ornamental liquid container. At least one type of liquid, such as a dual-liquid or a magma-like liquid, and floating ornaments are contained in the ornamental liquid container. The liquid and floating ornaments tend to create unique, changeful and dynamic scenes when the ornamental liquid container is moved by the external force applied on it. The ornamental liquid container therefore gives the table lamp novel appearances and additional decorative effect.

  • Patent number: 6165041
    Abstract: A liquid-type rocking ornament includes a transparent container and a seat assembled to a bottom of the container. The transparent container has a dual-liquid and some floating decorative articles seal therein. Differently shaped recess, hole or slit may be formed on outer surface of the transparent container at suitable position for holding clips, pen or cards. The seat includes a semispherical shell and a weight fixedly connected near an inner bottom center of the shell, so that the whole liquid-type ornament could rock under a minor push without easily tumbling over. The liquid in the rocking ornament presents dynamic and interesting scenes that last for a period of time in the transparent container.

  • Patent number: 6138870
    Abstract: A two-chamber milky lotion bottle is integrally molded from clear plastic material. An inner chamber of the milky lotion bottle is upward opened for containing an amount of milky lotion therein. An inner cap closes the inner chamber and an outer cap is screwed to an externally threaded top opening of the inner cap. A nozzle is associated with the outer cap with a nozzle head projected from the outer cap and a nozzle tube downward extended through the top opening of the inner cap and into the inner chamber. By depressing the nozzle head, milky lotion in the inner chamber is sucked upward via the nozzle tube for use. The outer chamber surrounds the inner chamber and has a downward opening. A bottom plate is connected to the downward opening of the outer chamber by heating seal, so that a dual-liquid ornament may be contained in the outer chamber, making the whole milky lotion bottle a good ornament at the same time.

  • Patent number: 5706594
    Abstract: A rotational color-liquid decoration including a base is set forth and a disk rotatably disposed on the base. The disk defines a closed space which is partitioned into multiple compartments in parallel with a surface of the disk. Each of these parallel compartments has a clear central area and an outer peripheral zone surrounding the central area. Colored liquid is sealed in each compartment to be carried by liquid collection units in the peripheral zone to a higher position when the disk is rotated. When the colored liquid in respective liquid collection unit reachs a certain position, it drips from an outlet of the liquid collection unit and passes the clear central area to be flattened into changing patterns in varying colors, serving as a dynamic decoration. A clock may be attached to a back side of the clear central area of the disk to enable the decoration to additionally function as a timepiece.

  • Patent number: 5706595
    Abstract: A wave-producing decoration including an elongated liquid container which has an outwardly and downwardly projecting bubble collector integrally formed at a bottom center. The bubble collector communicates with the liquid container and collects any possible bubbles in the container. In addition, the bubble collector has a shape suitable for engaging a seat member partially exposed from a support member of the decoration, such that the liquid container may laterally sway with the pivoting seat member, causing liquid in the container to flow in waves.

  • Patent number: 5678918
    Abstract: Disclosed is a lamp stand which mainly includes a clear and closed tubular container as its main body. A rotational shaft with blades is mounted in the tubular container and can be driven by magnetic rotational members to rotate and stir liquid contained in the container, so that currents looking like flowing cloud or floating mists are presented in the container forming the lamp stand, providing changeful and beautiful view.
