  • Publication number: 20090237942
    Abstract: A package structure for light emitting diode (LED) comprises a base, an LED die, an optical lens and a lens holder. The base comprises at least one holder cavity formed on its surface and at least one chase formed on its side surface. The lens holder comprises an opening, at least one holder stem and at least one wedge. The optical lens is arranged between the lens holder and the base, and also through the opening. The lens holder is fastened on the base by wedging the wedge with the chase and positioned on the base by embedding the holder stem into the holder cavity to enhance the positioning between the optical lens and the base, such that the optical lens can generate a desired light pattern. Therefore, the required time of a packaging process can be reduced, and the lens holder can be removed simply for replacing the optical lens, so the objective of changing the light pattern quickly can be achieved.

  • Patent number: 7592038
    Abstract: A method for repairing coating defects on a substrate with a surface coating with visual effects generated by the presence of visual effect pigments, said method comprising the steps of applying a first coating composition to form a first layer covering an affected area over the coating defect, wherein the first coating composition comprises one or more visual effect control agents and is free from said visual effect pigments; partially drying the first layer; applying a second coating composition over the first layer wherein the second coating composition comprises one or more visual effect control agents and one or more matching pigments for matching said visual effect of the surface coating; and d) curing said first and said second layers to form a repaired coating on said surface coating on said substrate; wherein said repaired coating is free of visible edge effects.

  • Patent number: 7591045
    Abstract: A buffer apparatus for a ceiling screen includes a case and a lid pivotally coupled with one lateral end of the case for holding a screen. The lateral end has two sides forming a first action side and a second action side that correspond to each other. The first action side has a speed reducing mechanism to reduce the flipping speed of the lid and provide a buffer effect when the lid is driven by a first elastic element and unfolds. The second action side has a second elastic element compressed by the flipping lid at the initial unfolding stage during the buffering process, and expanded at a later unfolding stage of the lid to provide a returning elastic force to move and anchor the lid on a desired position. Thus the impact and vibration resulting from fast flipping of the lid may be prevented.

  • Publication number: 20090229852
    Abstract: A process of twinning a pair of polymer-insulated conductors to form a twisted pair, where the polymer-insulated conductors are formed by extruding a uniformly thick coating of polymer onto the conductors. More than one twisted pair is encased in a polymer jacket forming a cable. The twisted pair obtains a desirable average impedance performance using a reduced amount by weight of polymer forming said polymer-insulated conductors by: (i) extruding to form longitudinally running peaks and valleys in the exterior surface of each of the polymer-insulated conductors of the pair of polymer-insulated conductors and (ii) twinning resultant polymer-insulated conductors to nest at least one of the peaks in the exterior surface of one of the polymer-insulated conductors in at least one of said valleys in the exterior surface of the other of the polymer-insulated conductors of the pair of polymer-insulated conductors.
