Abstract: A fixing apparatus comprises a base, a locking structure, an operating member, a first elastic member and a second elastic member. The base has an opening. The locking structure is movably disposed at the opening along a second direction. The operating member is movably disposed at the second surface along a first direction perpendicular to the second direction. The first elastic member is connected with the operating member and the base. The second elastic member is connected with the locking structure and the base.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to an ultrasonic detection device and detection method thereof. The ultrasonic detection device includes a processor and a transceiver module, whereby the transceiver module may be operated to enter an additional reception mode and receive a first ambient echo. The processor may analyze the first ambient echo and generate an analysis result. When the generated analysis result shows that the first ambient echo has a signal characteristic indicative of an interference source in the environment, the transceiver module may again enter the additional reception mode before a detection operation is performed. As a result, an elimination mode may be performed to correctly obtain or distinguish the corresponding reflected wave of the detection operation, thereby avoiding an error of operation, such as distance detection, due to the presence of an interference source.
