Abstract: An Ethernet power supply receives a DC voltage through a bus positive terminal and a bus negative terminal, and is coupled to a load device. The Ethernet power supply includes a first control module and a second control module. The first control module is used to provide a first control signal through the bus negative terminal to confirm whether the load device is a valid load. The second control module is used to connect or disconnect a coupling relationship between the bus positive terminal and the first control module according to the load device being connected or not.

Abstract: A method for gating in tomographic imaging system includes steps of: (a) performing a tomographic imaging on an object with a target moving periodically along a first axis for acquiring projection images; (b) obtaining projected curves by summing up pixel values along a direction of a second axis perpendicular to the first axis in each projection image; (c) determining a target zone on the projection images, wherein a central position on the first axis of the target zone is corresponding to a position having the largest variation in the projected curves on the first axis; (d) calculating parameter values of pixel values in the target zones and obtaining a curve of a moving cycle of the target according to the parameter values; and (e) selecting the projection images under the same state in the moving cycle for image reconstruction according to the curve of the moving cycle of the target.

Abstract: A data collecting system including a component assembled in an electric vehicle, a data collector connected to the component through a bus of the electric vehicle, and a debug server connected to the data collector is disclosed. The component collects different data from the electric vehicle and performs different sending procedures respectively under different situations including: a regular sending-procedure sends regular data to the bus based on a regular frequency; a high-speed sending-procedure starts collecting high-speed data and sending the same to the bus based on a high-speed frequency after a condition is satisfied; and a high-resolution sending-procedure sends high-resolution data to the bus after an error occurs, wherein the high-resolution data is collected within a period of time before and after the error occurs. The data collector collects these data from the bus. The debug server analyzes the data collected by the data collector.

Abstract: A fan includes a hub and a plurality of fan blades. The hub has an axle center. The fan blades are disposed around the hub. Each of the fan blades has a bent portion, and the bent portions of the fan blades are extended along a surrounding direction surrounding the axle center. The hub is welded with the bent portion of each of the fan blades along the surrounding direction. As a result, the number of fan blades is maximized, the strength is simultaneously ensured to be enough, and the advantages of effectively enhancing the fan characteristics are achieved.

Abstract: A calibration apparatus includes a processor, an alignment device, and an arm. The alignment device captures images in a three-dimensional space, and a tool is arranged on a flange of the arm. The processor records a first matrix of transformation between an end-effector coordinate-system and a robot coordinate-system, and performs a tool calibration procedure according to the images captured by the alignment device for obtaining a second matrix of transformation between a tool coordinate-system and the end-effector coordinate-system. The processor calculates relative position of a tool center point of the tool in the robot coordinate-system based on the first and second matrixes, and controls the TCP to move in the three-dimensional space for performing a positioning procedure so as to regard points in an alignment device coordinate-system as points of the TCP, and calculates the relative positions of points in the alignment device coordinate-system and in the robot coordinate-system.
