Chin-Pao Wu has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 7806738
    Abstract: A power source terminal structure includes an insertion terminal and a docking terminal. The insertion terminal has a main body and a contacting portion. The contacting portion is formed by extending from one end of the main body. The contacting portion is provided with a first protrusion. The docking terminal has a base and two elastic arms. The two elastic arms clamp the main body. The base is provided with a second protrusion opposite perpendicular to the first protrusion. The second protrusion contacts the first protrusion. Via this arrangement, the contact area between the insertion terminal and the docking terminal can be increased, and the reliability of the connector for transmitting the electric current and signals can be increased. Thus, the electric current is more stable.

  • Patent number: 7557305
    Abstract: A connector housing for a small and portable transmitting-receiving module includes an upper housing and a lower housing. The upper housing has a top board, two side walls and a rear cover. The lower edge of the two side walls has a first wedging plate, first convex blocks, and first indentations. The lower housing has a bottom board, and the bottom board has a second wedging plate, second convex blocks, and second indentations. The second wedging plate is wedging the two side walls. The first wedging plate is wedging the bottom board. The second convex blocks are plugged into the first indentations. The first convex blocks are plugged into the second indentations. Thereby, the structure of the connector housing is stronger compared to the prior art. The housing is not easily deformed. Its structure is simple, and the manufacturing cost is reduced.

  • Publication number: 20090116185
    Abstract: A small form-factor pluggable transceiver module housing includes a metallic casing and a plurality of reinforcing ribs. The metallic casing has a top plate, two side walls, a bottom plate, a plurality of connecting legs, a plurality of locking legs and a plurality of supporting portions. The connecting legs and the supporting portions are formed by means of extending from the lower edges of the two side walls. Each of the connecting legs has an open hole. The reinforcing ribs are each straddling the side wall and the connecting leg. Via this arrangement, the reinforcing ribs can improve the structural strength of the small form-factor pluggable transceiver module housing upon connection to a printed circuit board. The supporting portions can prevent the connecting legs from being damaged due to the excessive force upon connection.
