Patent number: 7777734Abstract: A liquid crystal displayer for preventing the generation of moisture includes a front cover, a touch panel, a nameplate, a partitioning plate and a liquid crystal displayer module. With the partitioning plate dividing a region between the touch panel and the liquid crystal displayer module into a first space and a second space, the first space is smaller, whereas the second space is larger. After the liquid crystal displayer module is supplied with electricity, the hot air staying in the first space is less. Further, the heat-obstructing effect of the partitioning plate causes the hot air not to condense in the second space, and thus it is not easy to generate a temperature difference from the external environment, thereby preventing the generation of mist.Type: GrantFiled: August 28, 2007Date of Patent: August 17, 2010Assignee: Delta Electronics, Inc.Inventors: Chin-Shiong Tsai, Wen-Yi Tang, Wen-Chin Kuo

Patent number: 7547875Abstract: A high-precision absolute type encoder apparatus includes a controller electrically connected to an incremental type encoder and generating a control signal to the incremental type encoder, a comparator electrically connected to outputs of the incremental type encoder and generating first pulse signals, a latch unit electrically connected to outputs of the comparator and generating second pulse signals by latching the generating first pulse signals. When power failure occurs, the controller generates the control signal as successive pulses with predetermined period to drive the latch unit and the incremental type encoder. Therefore, the controller knows angular information of the incremental type encoder by counting the second pulse signals. The absolute angular information can be obtained by combining the angular information and an initial position after power failure.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2008Date of Patent: June 16, 2009Assignee: Delta Electronics, Inc.Inventors: Chin-Shiong Tsai, Po-Ming Chen, Meng-Chang Lin, Cheng-Ping Lin

Patent number: 7187152Abstract: An AC servo drive without current sensor includes a PI (proportional integration) controller, at least two first-order controllers (polar point and zero point), a decoupling compensator, a coordinate converter, a pulse width modulator, a counter and a speed estimator. The AC servo drive is connected with a servomotor to form an AC servo module. The servomotor comprises an encoder receiving a current command signal from the servo module to function as input current command signal or the d, q axes PI controller and the decoupling compensator. The voltage command signal generated by the d, q axes PI controller and the signal generated by the decoupling compensator form a control signal and input to the coordinate converter. The signal output from the coordinate converter is processed by PWM controller to control the servomotor. Therefore, the deterioration of servo motor control caused by temperature drift and cost can be solved.Type: GrantFiled: October 14, 2005Date of Patent: March 6, 2007Assignee: Delta Electronic Inc.Inventor: Chin-Shiong Tsai

Patent number: 6445650Abstract: Disclosed is a high-speed dynamic actuating system for optical disks, particularly useful in an optical disk drive, wherein a closed-loop approach is used to overcome the diversity between devices and thus meet the requirement for high speed track-accessing and solve the problems in that the convention open-loop track-jumping takes a long period of time to perform segmental adjustment. The pick-up head is activated by applying high-speed dynamic actuation of the lens so as to conform to the pre-determined velocity curve and eliminate the wobble of the lens caused by different track-jumping times in an optical disk drive and a hard disk. In addition, said system can be implemented in an integrated circuit (IC), which is directly controlled by the hardware and thus effectively simplifies the complicated configuration as in the prior art.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 2000Date of Patent: September 3, 2002Assignee: Discovision AssociatesInventor: Chin-Shiong Tsai
