Patent number: 10305340Abstract: An armature for a permanent magnet brushed motor includes a shaft, a number of silicon steel laminations circumferentially around the shaft, a commutator adjacent to an end of the shaft, and an enameled wire winding wound around the silicon steel laminations and the commutator. A plastic sleeve capable of withstanding high temperature is disposed between the commutator and the silicon steel laminations and adjacent to the commutator. A plastic member wraps around where the enameled wire winding winds the commutator, and fixedly attaching to the plastic sleeve. As such, the plastic member establishes a first point of attachment at where the enameled wire winding winds the commutator and a second point of attachment to the plastic sleeve. The problem of the enameled wire winding being loosed or broken due to the armature's high-speed rotation is prevented, thereby enhancing the motor's robustness and operational life.Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 2017Date of Patent: May 28, 2019Inventor: Chi-Wen Chen

Patent number: 9787866Abstract: An image scanning method is applied in an image scanning device which includes an input tray and a paper feeding sensor. The method detects whether there are papers on the input tray in step one. If there are papers, step two is executed. Otherwise, the method ends and an error is reported. In step two, papers are separated and fed. Whether the papers contact the paper feeding sensor is detected in step three. The method executes step four if the papers contact the paper feeding sensor, and ends the method with an error message otherwise. In step four, the method scans and detects whether an image of a fed edge of each of the papers is abnormal. If the image is abnormal, the method ends and an error is reported. Otherwise, scanning continues.Type: GrantFiled: November 18, 2016Date of Patent: October 10, 2017Assignee: Foxlink Image Technology Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hsuan Hui Wang, Chi Wen Chen, Ting Chieh Lin, Chien Jen Chen, Chang Hsien Sung
