Abstract: A windshield wiper includes a primary frame member and secondary frame members coupled to the primary frame member. The primary frame member is in the form of an inverted U-shape and includes end portions in which mounting holes are formed. Each secondary frame member has symmetrically arranged wall plates and a positioning section formed between and slightly projecting beyond the wall plates. Each wall plate forms open-ended slots that are symmetrically arranged. A boss is formed on an inside surface of each wall plate between the open-ended slots. The primary frame member has side plates that are fit over the positioning section of the secondary frame member to have the wall plates of the secondary frame member covering and clamping the vertical side walls of the primary frame member. The bosses are fit into the mounting holes of the primary frame member.
Abstract: A windshield wiper includes a blade assembly, which has a primary frame member having opposite ends to which secondary frame members are respectively connected. The primary frame member forms a central opening delimited by two side walls. A retain carrying a positioning bar is received in the opening. An arm coupler is received in the opening and has an inner wall section and an outer wall section through which mounting holes are defined. Fixing pawls extend downward from the inner wall section to engage the retainer for fixing the arm coupler. The mounting holes serve to couple to a wiper arm of a vehicle for driving reciprocal motion of the windshield wiper. The arm coupler can be mounted to the primary frame member in different directions so that the windshield wiper is suitable for both left hand drive vehicles and right hand drive vehicles.

Abstract: A ratchet wrench includes a body, a ratchet wheel, a control unit, and a rotary knob. The body has an end forming a ratchet wheel bore and a receiving hole, which respectively and rotatably receive the ratchet wheel and the rotary knob therein. A channel is defined in the body between the ratchet wheel bore and the receiving hole for receiving therein the control unit. The control unit includes two detent blocks and a spring. The detent blocks are selectively engageable with teeth formed in the ratchet wheel. The rotary knob retains a control bar and a positioning ball. The receiving hole has an inner circumferential wall in which two positioning notches are defined. The control bar is operated to move the detent blocks to desired positions and the positioning ball is biased by a spring into selective engagement with the positioning notches for proper positioning of the detent blocks.
Abstract: A coaxial cable terminal includes an insulating shell and a connection terminal. An interior of the insulating shell is hollow and is thus formed with a holding space. Two ends of the insulating shell are provided respectively with an opening. The connection terminal is accommodated in the holding space and is extended toward one end to form at least two leaves. Each leaf is first bent inward with an abutting section and a tail end of the abutting section is then bent outward to extend with a contact section. A bonding end is formed between the abutting section and the contact section. When a coaxial cable terminal is inserted, the coaxial cable terminal is clamped by the bonding end and is bonded by elastic abutting of the abutting section. Therefore, the present invention can be compatible with the coaxial cables of various apertures and will not be elastically fatigue easily.
Abstract: The gas discharge lamp contains a lamp body and an UV unit. The UV unit contains a separate airtight chamber wrapping around at least a neck member of the lamp body and covering at least a part of a Mo tinsel inside the neck member. The airtight chamber is filled with one or more gases capable of being ionized, and is wound by a conductor whose one end is connected to a conduction wire extended out of one of the neck members. When the gas discharge lamp is turned on, the gases in the airtight chamber are ionized to produce an UV light to penetrate the discharge chamber. The gas discharge lamp therefore could have a lower starting voltage and an improved starting efficiency. Additionally, as the airtight chamber provides a heat insulation effect, the temperature-induced stress is thereby reduced.

Abstract: An electrical connector for a flat conductor that has a novel positioning and retaining structure is disclosed. The electrical connector comprises a housing, a pressure member and a plurality of conductive terminals spaced with a certain interval and planted onto the housing. The electrical connector is characterized in a pair of prominences internally molded at two sides of a lower surface of the pressure member, and another pair of protrusions internally molded at two inner lateral walls of the housing near a front edge of the housing, namely the edge receiving the flat conductor. Thereby, when the flat conductor is inserted into the electrical connector, the flat conductor is firstly positioned by the protrusions of the housing, and then when the pressure member is closed to the housing, the flat conductor is engaged with the prominences of the pressure member.
Abstract: A heating structure of a gasification tank in an action includes a furniture which is provided with an action and an interior of the action is provided with a gasification tank and a gas cylinder. A wall of the gasification tank in the action is provided with at least one electrothermal pad by which gas passing through the gasification tank can be heated up, avoiding that air pressure is reduced as air temperature in the gasification tank is too low, as the present invention can effectively and continuously heat up the air in the gasification tank.
Abstract: A joint structure for aluminum windows which includes a first vertical frame having a first side provided with two joint members, and a sliding guide arranged at a center of the first side and between the first joint members, a second vertical frame having a first side provided with two second joint members, and a sliding guide arranged at a center of the first side and between the two second joint members, and a joint plate having two sides each provided with two joint members and a sliding rail between the two joint members, the joint members of the joint plate being adapted to engage with the joint members of the vertical frames, the sliding rail being adapted to engage with the sliding guide, the joint plate having two ends each provided with an accommodating groove, and a leak proof rubber fitted in the accommodating groove.
Abstract: A knife sharpening bar includes a handle that carries a support bar. A flexible tube is tightly fit over the support bar. A hollow ceramic bar is then fit over the flexible tube with an inside surface of the ceramic bar tightly engaging the flexible tube so that the flexible tube provides a cushioning support between the support bar and the ceramic bar, which protects the ceramic bar from directly bearing any external impact applied to the knife sharpening bar. An internally-threaded cap engages an externally-threaded free end of the support bar and abuts against the ceramic bar to thereby secure the ceramic bar in position on the support bar. Collars or other buffering members can be positioned at opposite ends of the ceramic bar.
Abstract: The eyeglass structure mainly contains a frame and a viewing lens. At each interface between a front opening and the two temple members of the frame, a positioning slot with a protruding block therewithin is provided. On the other hand, two positioning pieces, each with a notch, are extended from the two ends of the viewing lens. To install the viewing lens, the positioning pieces are threaded into the positioning slots and the protruding blocks are embedded into the notches to secure the viewing lens. To detach the viewing lens, the positioning pieces are pulled to break out the locking of the protruding blocks and pushed to escape the confinement of positioning slots. The installation and detachment are therefore could be easily and conveniently conducted.
