  • Patent number: 9074307
    Abstract: A loom, containing a first and second fill yarn-holding conveyor rods which are disposed at left and right sides of an opening formed by multiple side-by-side warp yarns that run in one direction at a prescribed speed and are repeatedly inserted into the opening toward center of a weaving width and withdrawn, a single fill yarn conveyor selectively gripped by the ends of the first or second fill yarn-holding conveyor rod, a first and second rod operating units which cause the first and the second fill yarn-holding conveyor rods to be inserted into the opening in a synchronized state and to be withdrawn from the opening, and a first and second fill yarn conveyor gripping and releasing units which are fixed to opposite ends of the first and the second fill yarn-holding conveyor rods and alternately repeat operations of gripping, releasing, and delivering the fill yarn conveyor.

  • Patent number: 7719649
    Abstract: A liquid crystal display (LCD) panel including an active device array substrate, an opposite substrate and a liquid crystal layer is provided. The active device array substrate includes a substrate, a plurality of scan lines, a plurality of data lines, and a plurality of pixel units. The scan lines, the data lines and the pixel units are disposed on the substrate. Each of the pixel units is electrically connected to one of the scan lines and one of the data lines correspondingly and crosses over two sides of the corresponding scan line. The opposite substrate includes a plurality of alignment protrusions. The alignment protrusions are located over the scan lines. Besides, the liquid crystal layer is disposed between the opposite substrate and the active device array substrate. The above-mentioned liquid crystal display panel has higher aperture ratio.

  • Patent number: 4095619
    Abstract: A machine for inserting cross yarns through an array of longitudinal yarns so as to produce a three-dimensional weave includes yokes positioned adjacent to the array of longitudinal yarns and two rotatable shafts mounted on each yoke along opposite sides of the array with the shafts extended generally perpendicular to the direction of the longitudinal yarns. The shafts of each yoke at their ends have latching mechanisms which are capable of individually engaging and releasing a transfer arm having sufficient length to span the space between shafts. The shafts of each yoke when rotated are capable of moving the transfer arm between end positions wherein the arm is located entirely to the side of the array and a traversing position wherein the arm extends through the array and is engaged with the two shafts. Thus, by rotating the shafts and operating the latching mechanisms it is possible to pass the transfer arm completely through the array from one end position to the other.
