  • Publication number: 20240145132
    Abstract: An over-current protection device includes first and second electrode layers and a PTC material layer laminated therebetween. The PTC material layer includes a polymer matrix, and a conductive filler. The polymer matrix has a fluoropolymer. The total volume of the PTC material layer is calculated as 100%, and the fluoropolymer accounts for 47-62% by volume of the PTC material layer. The fluoropolymer has a melt viscosity higher than 3000 Pa·s.

  • Publication number: 20240145133
    Abstract: An over-current protection device includes a first metal layer, a second metal layer and a heat-sensitive layer laminated therebetween. The heat-sensitive layer exhibits a positive temperature coefficient (PTC) characteristic and includes a polymer matrix and a first conductive filler. The polymer matrix includes a polyolefin-based polymer and a fluoropolymer. The fluoropolymer has a melt flow index higher than 1.9 g/10 min, and the polyolefin-based polymer and the fluoropolymer together form an interpenetrating polymer network (IPN). The first conductive filler has a metal-ceramic compound dispersed in the polymer matrix.

  • Publication number: 20240127988
    Abstract: An over-current protection device includes a first metal layer, a second metal layer and a heat-sensitive layer laminated therebetween. The heat-sensitive layer exhibits a positive temperature coefficient (PTC) characteristic and includes a first polymer and a conductive filler. The first polymer consists of polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF), and PVDF exists in different phases such as ?-PVDF, ?-PVDF and ?-PVDF. The total amount of ?-PVDF, ?-PVDF and ?-PVDF is calculated as 100%, and the amount of ?-PVDF accounts for 48% to 55%. The conductive filler has a metal-ceramic compound.

  • Patent number: 11960332
    Abstract: An electronic device including a hinge module, a first body, a second body, and a flexible display assembled to the first body and the second body is provided. Each of the first body and the second body is pivoted and slidably connected to the hinge module, and a cover of the hinge module is exposed out of the first body and the second body. The first body and the second body are rotated relatively via the hinge module to bend or flatten the flexible display, when the flexible display is bending from a flat state, a bending portion of the flexible display leans against the cover and pushes the cover away from the first body and the second body.

  • Patent number: 7324793
    Abstract: A wireless transmission device capable of transmitting media from different channels concurrently. The transmitter of the device places the inputted TV signals and an audio/video signal on different segments of a frequency spectrum, combines the signals of all segments into one combined signal, and transmits the combined signal as a radio frequency signal so as to transmit signals from different channels at the same time. Meanwhile, a controller in the receiver of the device selects a needed channel signal from the received radio frequency signal according to a selection signal. Therefore with one A/V transmitter and multiple A/V receivers, multiple-channel media transmission and multiple-channel media reception is achieved.

  • Publication number: 20050212616
    Abstract: A radiowave receiving device including a waveguide, a probe, a circuit, and an impedance matching mechanism. The waveguide has a cavity for conveying radiowave. The probe, disposed in the cavity, converts radiowave conveyed by the waveguide into a circuit signal. The circuit, electrically coupled to the probe, receives the circuit signal. The impedance matching mechanism provides the waveguide with an impedance match with respect to the circuit. Affixed to the waveguide, the impedance matching mechanism includes a tuning element in a spatial position.
