  • Patent number: 8267366
    Abstract: A display suspending frame device includes a securing frame, and a first suspending frame and a second suspending frame for mounting respectively to first and second displays to permit suspension of the first and second displays on the securing frame one above the other. The second suspending frame is disposed below the first suspending frame and is capable of upward and downward adjustment by virtue of the configuration thereof or through a fine-tuning unit. Thus, the second display is adjustable in height position to abut against a bottom side of the first display so as to eliminate any clearance between the first and second displays.

  • Publication number: 20120070724
    Abstract: A buffering structure for a lead accumulator container comprises an accumulator container including plural holding grooves for accommodation of electrode pads. The holding grooves are spaced by partition walls. Between the holding grooves are provided plural buffer spaces including support members to separate the holding grooves, improving the diffusion of the heat energy generated by the reaction of the accumulator while avoiding the undesired temperature increase in the accumulator. With support members, the buffer spaces won't deform after heating up, effectively avoiding the damages to the interior of the accumulator due to high temperature. Furthermore, the arrangement of the buffer spaces can effectively reduce the total volume of the holding grooves and correspondingly reduce the quantity of the electrode plates and electrolyte, achieving the objectives of reducing the total weight and material cost.

  • Publication number: 20100103644
    Abstract: An uniformly self-luminous keyboard device comprises a housing and a keyboard unit. The housing includes an upper casing and a lower casing, which can be assembled together. After the upper casing and the lower casing are assembled together, an accommodation space is formed therebetween. The upper casing has an opening interconnecting the accommodation space. The keyboard unit is arranged in the accommodation space and includes a plurality of press members passing through the opening and moved by a force to have a displacement, and a baseplate supporting the press members. A light conduction space is formed between the baseplate and the lower casing. A light emitting unit is arranged inside the light conduction space. The height of the light conduction space decreases with the distance to the light emitting unit, whereby light is uniformly distributed over the bottom of the keyboard unit. Thus is achieved the uniformly self-luminous keyboard device.

  • Publication number: 20080097303
    Abstract: A syringe with retractable needle includes a hub, a barrel, and a plunger. The hub is provided with symmetrical retaining sections, and a hooking section of a predetermined length is formed at a front end of the plunger with a piston mounted the hooking section. The piston includes a diametrically larger front part and a diametrically smaller and deformable rear part. A top surface of the piston is tightly abutted on a large lower surface of the hooking section to prevent any bubble from existing behind the hooking section. When the plunger is fully pushed forward to compress the smaller rear part of the piston, the hooking section is brought to engage with the retaining sections on the hub, so that medical liquid is fully released from the barrel, and the hub and the needle thereof can be drawn into the barrel after the injection by pulling the plunger backward.
