  • Patent number: 11560270
    Abstract: An actuator for a spray can. The actuator includes a housing for attachment to an aerosol can covering a stem valve. A finger operating button structure is engaged with the housing for engaging the stem valve. A rotary two-way diverter valve is supported within the housing and rotatably engaged with the finger operating button structure. In a spray position/straw down, the two-way diverter valve directs spray through a first direct spray nozzle. In a second straw position/straw up, to make use of an adjustable straw, the diverter valve is rotated to engage a straw spray passage of the diverter valve in fluid communication with an adjustable rotary spray tip and engaged straw. By rotating the adjustable rotary spray tip to an aligned position, the tip substantially blocks the straw spray passage to provide a drip mode, where drops of fluid exit the straw. A flexible tip may optionally be provided on the straw to enable bending and retention of the flexible tip to a desired position.

  • Patent number: 10352524
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a light and thin tail lamp comprising a light guide structure and a lampshade, wherein the light guide structure is arranged in the lampshade, one surface of the light guide structure is an emergent surface, and the other surface of the light guide structure is a reflective surface; two incident surfaces are arranged on opposite positions at two sides of the light guide structure, at least one of the incident surfaces is provided with light sources, and rays emitted from the light sources enter the light guide structure through the incident surfaces; and the light sources are connected with a control circuit. The light and thin tail lamp disclosed by the present invention is reasonable in design, small in thickness, size and occupied space, and convenient to mount; and the light and thin tail lamp is high in brightness, uniform in light emergence and non-dazzling.

  • Patent number: 8976084
    Abstract: A portable optical device (104) for transmitting an image to the eye (6) of an observer, includes: a display (1) disposed on the same side of the observer's head (7) as the eye, so as to emit the image in front of the observer's head; an ocular dioptric surface (3); and redirection elements (4, 5, 8, 9) for guiding the image towards the dioptric surface. The device is disposed such that the image strikes the dioptric surface (3) originating from the side of the nose in relation to the eye (6) and the dioptric surface (3) then reflects the image towards the eye (6). Such a device is particularly suitable for the production of glasses that can be used to display a virtual or augmented reality.

  • Publication number: 20140313556
    Abstract: An optical unit (1) for augmented vision and augmented reality, which is to be placed in front of an eye of a user of the unit, includes a transparent or semitransparent screen (3), preferably a P-LED or TO-LED screen, and a unit (4) for collimating an image emitted by the screen toward the eye of the user, the collimating unit being a DOE, preferably an HOE, and the convergence function of the collimating unit being effective at a wavelength (FS) emitted by the screen.

  • Patent number: 7637617
    Abstract: A method for generating retinal images using the stigmatism of the two foci (F, F?) of a substantially elliptical sight (E) with a semi-reflective surface, wherein a so-called object focus consisting of the diaphragm of a pinhole disc forming the convergence point of an image generated by a light-emitting display or a collimated light source is positioned adjacent to the first focus (F) of the substantially elliptical sight (E), a so-called image focus consisting of the pupil or the centre of the user's eye (OE) is positioned adjacent to the second focus (F?) of said substantially elliptical sight (E), and the image generated by said light-emitting display or said collimated light source and reflected by the semi-reflective surface of the substantially elliptical sight (E) is projected adjacent to the retina of the user's eye.
