  • Patent number: 12285371
    Abstract: An anti-pinch system for an electric seat includes a plurality of infrared sensing modules, a seat cushion hose, a footrest hose, a pressure sensor, at least one linear actuator, a central processing unit, a power module and a control module. When the user operates the electric seat to act, the plurality of infrared sensing modules and the pressures sensor synchronously sense whether an obstacle is under the electric seat. If an obstacle exists under the electric seat, the central processing unit will control the at least one actuator to stop or to reversely act. When the user cannot perceive obstacles by themselves, the electric seat can be automatically prevented from pinching obstacles, thus avoiding damaging the obstacles or the electric seat.

  • Publication number: 20190380896
    Abstract: A chair safety system against accidental pressing has a central processing unit, multiple sensors, multiple linear pushrods, a power device, and a controller. The multiple sensors, the multiple linear pushrods, the power device, and the controller are electrically connected to the central processing unit, respectively. The multiple sensors include a first sensor and at least one second sensor that are respectively mounted to the linear pushrods, a linkage of a height adjustable chair, or a seat of the height adjustable chair. The first sensor is a human touch sensor or a Hall Effect sensor. The at least one second sensor is a pyroelectric sensor, a microwave sensor, or an ultrasonic sensor. By different sorts of the sensors working simultaneously, the linear pushrods will be stopped if any obstacles exist below the seat; thus damage to the obstacles and the seat may be prevented.

  • Patent number: 9404970
    Abstract: A system includes processor cores that receive packets over a debug bus. The cores execute transactions in response to the packets. The packets are one of several types of packets such as a Second Access Bus (SAB) packet and Debug Access Bus (DAB) packet. The cores include specified resources and non-specified resources. A core that executes a transaction in response to a SAB packet accesses a non-specified resource and a core that executes a transaction in response to a DAB packet accesses a specified resources. A debug specification identifies the specified resources as being accessible by a debug controller. The debug specification does not identify the non-specified resources as being accessible by the debug controller.

  • Publication number: 20160100689
    Abstract: A portable multifunction seat cushion has a body, a fixing unit, a carrying unit and a storage unit. The body has a middle, an inner surface, an outer surface, two opposite sidewalls and two folding lines. The folding lines are formed on the middle of the body at an interval and are parallel with each other and the opposite sidewalls of the body. The fixing unit is mounted on the opposite sidewalls of the body to fasten the body when the body is folded. The carrying unit is attached to the body to provide a carrying function. The storage unit is attached on the outer surface of the body to provide a storage function.

  • Publication number: 20130088062
    Abstract: An adjustable and pivotable seat includes a base, a backrest plate and an adjusting rod. The base has a receiving portion disposed on one end of the base and a receiving space defined in the receiving portion, and an opening inclinedly defined through the receiving portion. The backrest plate is pivotally connected with the base and has a series of teeth disposed on the backrest plate and a series of slots respectively defined in between the series of teeth. The series of teeth is correspondingly and movable received in the receiving space in the base. The adjusting rod is selectively inserted into the opening and selectively engages one of the series of slots. Therefore, the backrest plate is pivotable relative to the base and an angle between the backrest plate and the base is adjustable.

  • Publication number: 20070270225
    Abstract: A solution for network latency inherent in a multiplayer online game involving more than two players is disclosed. The solution is a dynamic re-sequencing and synchronization mechanism that enables seamless and simultaneous participation by remote users, such that an event can have an immediate and consequential effect on a related event without the unwanted effects resulting from network latency.

  • Publication number: 20020086733
    Abstract: A system and method for simultaneous participation of remote users in an organized online forum. The forum can take many forms and shapes, such as a baseball game, where each player character on the baseball field is controlled by an individual participant, regardless of physical location. A user can choose a character having various characteristics, personalize the chosen character, and train the character to increase the character's ability. The user can organize or join a team for league play or can participate with others in a less formal setting. Both the characters and the playing forums are portrayed by enhanced three-dimensional graphics to add a life-like feel to the game.
