Patent number: 7388510Abstract: A display comprises a base, a display module and a sensing device. The base has a sensing region and the display module has a control device. The sensing device is electrically connected with the control device and the display module is rotatably coupled to the base. The control device can determine that an angle of rotation of the display module with respect to the base according to a corresponding relation between the sensing device and the sensing region of the base.Type: GrantFiled: February 7, 2005Date of Patent: June 17, 2008Assignees: Qisda Corporation, Benq CorporationInventors: Yao-Wen Chu, I-Wen Su

Patent number: 7251144Abstract: A display includes a monitor module, a base and a shielding apparatus. The base is coupled to the monitor module, and the shielding apparatus is disposed between the base and the monitor module. The shielding apparatus includes a magnetic core and a non-flexible coiled device having a number of fixed shape coils. The coiled device is put through the magnetic core so that the magnetic core is selectively surrounded by at least one of the coils of the coiled device. The monitor module is therefore grounded via the shielding apparatus.Type: GrantFiled: August 20, 2004Date of Patent: July 31, 2007Assignee: Benq CorporationInventor: Yao-Wen Chu

Patent number: 7068497Abstract: A flat panel display includes a base, a supporting arm, a slide-bracket and a display module. The supporting arm has a first end and a second end. The first end of the supporting arm is hinged to the base so that the supporting arm can rotate relative to the base. The slide-bracket has a first end and a second end. The first end of the slide-bracket is hinged to the second end of the supporting arm so that the slide-bracket can rotate relative to the supporting arm. The display module is connected to the second end of the slide-bracket. Therefore, the display module can move relative to the base along with the movement of the supporting arm, and the display module can slide relative to the slide-bracket.Type: GrantFiled: August 6, 2004Date of Patent: June 27, 2006Assignee: Benq CorporationInventor: Yao-Wen Chu

Patent number: 7026973Abstract: An electronic device with multiple buttons includes a first resistor combination, a second resistor combination, N buttons, and an output node. A first end of the first resistor combination is connected to a high voltage. A second end of the first resistor combination is connected to a third end of the second resistor combination. A fourth end of the second resistor combination is connected to a low voltage. The first resistor combination has p serially connected resistors, and the second resistor combination has q serially connected resistors. The sum of p and q equals M, a positive integer equal to or large than 3. Each button is connected in parallel with at least one resistor. The output node is deposited between the first and the second resistor combinations. The output node outputs an analog signal whose voltage corresponds to the states of the buttons.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 2005Date of Patent: April 11, 2006Assignee: Benq CorporationInventor: Yao-Wen Chu
