  • Publication number: 20110256507
    Abstract: A computerized method for coloring a porcelain tooth includes a color difference comparison step, a first computer aided process, and a second computer aided process, for precisely controlling the color of the porcelain tooth. Each parameter is obtained from data comparison. The first computer aided process forms a first layer on the surface of the porcelain tooth and then and the second computer aided process forms a second layer on the first layer by way of computer aided manufacturing (CAM) according to the color difference comparison step. Because of CAM, the method does not require an experienced operator. Therefore, it may reduce labor cost, human error, and ceramic powder consumption. The method may thus save cost, improve production efficiency, and shorten delivery time of the porcelain tooth product.

  • Publication number: 20090140093
    Abstract: A cable winding mechanism with reduced friction includes a cable, a case, a reel disc, a spring device, a roller and a friction-reducing member. The case includes a first case element and a second case element, wherein a cable locking structure is formed in an inner surface of the second case element. The reel disc has a confining groove. The roller is movable along the confining groove of the reel disc. When a pulling operation of the cable causes the roller to move in the cable locking structure of the second case element, a desired length of the cable is pulled out and locked. When the roller is detached from the cable locking structure, the cable pulled outside the case is rewound on the reel disc. The friction-reducing member is disposed on the reel disc for reducing friction during the process of pulling out or rewinding the cable.

  • Publication number: 20080133990
    Abstract: Disclosed is a scan test data compression method and decoding apparatus for multiple-scan-chain designs. The apparatus comprises a on-chip decoder connected to a tester. The decoder includes a decoding buffer configured as a multilayer architecture, a controller, and a switching box for receiving a shift signal or a copy signal. The decoding buffer is used to store decoded test data. While the decoder decodes the encoded data, it transmits control signals to both the decoding buffer and the switching box from the controller, and sends the decoded data to scan chains of a CUT for testing through the decoding buffer. This invention has the advantages of simple encoding method, high compression rate, low power consumption in testing, and without the fault coverage loss.
