  • Patent number: 10107592
    Abstract: A laser target pointer for engaging a gun includes a body, a locating plate, a positioning block, a first fitting element and an adjustable positioning assembly. By providing the adjustable positioning assembly, the laser target pointer can be clamped to a gun with an arbitrary body width. By adjusting a position of the positioning block with respect to the locating plate, the laser target pointer can be positioned to a gun with an arbitrary transverse positioning groove. Thus, the laser target pointer can be properly assembled to any gun body having specifications within a predetermined range, and the position of the laser target pointer can be adjusted on the gun body in the extension direction, such that a single laser target pointer can be applicable to various guns with different brands, types, series or specifications.

  • Patent number: 7322118
    Abstract: A non-contact electronic level has a light source, a vial having a bubble and positioned to be irradiated by light from the light source, and a photo sensor located at a position corresponding to the bubble at a fixed distance from the vial. The photo sensor captures an image of the bubble after the vial is irradiated by the light source. An image processing unit is electrically coupled to the photo sensor and converts the image of the bubble into an electronic level signal by comparing the centroid of the image of the bubble with a predetermined point.
