Abstract: A faucet handle assembly includes a mounting shank configured to be mounted to a mounting deck. A valve assembly is received within an internal chamber of the mounting shank, and the valve assembly includes a valve stem that is rotatable about a rotation axis to facilitate water flow through the valve assembly. The valve assembly further includes a valve stem adapter that is operably coupled to the valve stem. The faucet handle assembly further includes an upper handle. The upper handle includes a lever that is coupled to the valve stem adapter and the valve stem, and the lever is disposed on a first side of the rotation axis. The upper handle further includes a cover that is coupled to the valve stem adapter and disposed on an opposite second side of the rotation axis. The cover and the lever together obscure the valve stem adapter.

Abstract: A conversion device includes a primary side circuit, a secondary side circuit, a transformer, and a control circuit. The primary side circuit includes a primary side switch and is configured to receive an input voltage. The secondary side circuit outputs an output voltage to a load. The transformer comprises a primary winding and a secondary winding, the primary winding is electrically coupled to the primary side circuit and the secondary winding electrically coupled to the secondary side circuit. The control circuit is configured to control a peak value of the current of the primary side switch, to be limited in a band range.
Abstract: A power supply is provided. The power supply includes a case, an electrical connector and a LED. The case includes a first side wall including an extension part. The extension part is extended from the first side wall toward a second side wall and has an aperture. Portion of the electrical connector is disposed in an accommodation space through an opening and includes a first base and a contacting ring. The first base is disposed in the accommodation space. The contacting ring is disposed on an exterior of the accommodation space. The LED is disposed in the aperture and includes a second base and a lens disposed on the second base. The second base and the contacting ring are located on different surfaces. The lens and portion of the second base are exposed from the opening. The other portion of the second base is covered by the contacting ring.
Abstract: A wavelength conversion member includes a substrate, a phosphor layer, and a ventilated blade. The substrate is configured to rotate based on an axis. The phosphor layer is disposed on the substrate. The ventilated blade is disposed on the substrate and has a pore density between 10 ppi and 500 ppi or a volume porosity between 5% and 95%.
Abstract: A development system and a method of an offline software-in-the-loop simulation are disclosed. A common firmware architecture generates a chip control program. The common firmware architecture has an application layer and a hardware abstraction layer. The application layer has a configuration header file and a product program. A processing program required by a peripheral module is added to the hardware abstraction layer during compiling. The chip control program is provided to a controller chip or a circuit simulation software to be executed to control the product-related circuit through controlling the peripheral module.
Abstract: An electric power distribution panel is provided. The electric power distribution panel includes a first input bus, a second input bus, a plurality of brackets and a plurality of circuit breaker modules. The first and second input buses are coupled to a first power source and a second power source respectively. The plurality of brackets is electrically connected to the first and second input buses. The plurality of circuit breaker modules are assembled to the plurality of brackets respectively. Each of the plurality of circuit breaker modules includes a circuit breaker and an adapter detachably assembled to the circuit breaker. In each of the plurality of circuit breaker modules, the circuit breaker is electrically connected to the first input bus when the adapter is removed from the circuit breaker, and the circuit breaker is electrically connected to the second input bus when the adapter is assembled to the circuit breaker.

Abstract: A work activity processing apparatus based on a work object, includes: a memory unit comprising a work activity map memory area related to at least one member and containing at least one work activity, and a chat room memory area related to the work activity map and related to a chat room implemented through a message thread; and a circuitry configured to generate a work activity object, which indicates a work activity related to the chat room, by associating the chat room with a work activity comprising work activity contents or multimedia attached file, create, in the chat room, a work object related to the work activity object and comprising a work generator, a work processor, and work contents, and add the work object as a work message to the message thread related to the chat room to update the message thread and then update the work activity map.
Abstract: A power module includes a power circuit and a magnetic assembly. The power circuit includes at least one switch element. The magnetic assembly includes at least one first electrical conductor and a magnetic core module comprising at least one hole, wherein the at least one first electrical conductor passes through the at least one hole, and a terminal of the at least one first electrical conductor is electrically connected to the at least one switch element. The power circuit and the magnetic assembly are arranged in sequence along a same direction.
Abstract: A faucet spout mounting system including a faucet spout tube, an inner adapter, and a bushing. The bushing is positioned radially intermediate the outer spout tube and the inner adapter. The inner adapter and the bushing engage to push flexible arms on the bushing against the outer spout tube, thus holding the bushing in place and compensating for tolerances in the spout mounting system.

Abstract: The occurrence of a sudden change in physical condition is detected. In a physical condition determination device 100, a heart rate-relate index calculation unit 110 specifies an appearance time of a sign of a sudden change in heart rate, from a time-series waveform of an index corresponding to a variation in the heart rate (heart rate-related index) and a blood pressure-related index calculation unit 120 specifies an appearance time of a sign of a sudden change in blood pressure, from a time-series waveform of an index corresponding to a variation in the blood pressure (blood pressure-related index). A physical condition sudden change determination unit 130 determines that a sudden change in physical condition (physical condition sudden change) has occurred in a case where these appearance times are both within a predetermined time.
Abstract: Blood pressure is estimated in a non-constraining manner continuously and in real time. A biological signal collected from a person's dorsal part is analyzed, vibration in the human body ascribable to a blood flow rate change in a period from the ventricular filling period to the isovolumetric systole is captured, and the state of fluctuation of an index indicating the state of the in vivo vibration is further captured. This fluctuation index correlates with a person's blood pressure. Therefore, it is possible to estimate whether the blood pressure is in a range indicating a normal-range blood pressure or in a range indicating a high blood pressure, only by having the person sit or lie supine on a surface provided with a biological signal measurement device to measure a biological signal in a non-constraining manner, so as to make the biological signal measurement device contiguous with the person's dorsal part.
