  • Patent number: 9829757
    Abstract: A display device includes a light source module, a first light modulation module, a first polarizer layer, and a first color modulation layer. The light source module generates a first color light that is polarized to the first light modulation module, wherein the first light modulation module selectively modulates the polarization direction of the first color light. The first polarizer layer then receives the first color light and selectively blocks, partially blocks, or does not block the first color light from passing through. The first color modulation layer receives the first color light and generates a second color light.

  • Patent number: 8966712
    Abstract: A door operator includes an installation box, an operating mechanism, a pneumatic apparatus and a moveable sleeve. The installation box has a housing and a lid. The housing has an assembling space and an opening communicating with the assembling space; the lid is mounted in the opening and covers the assembling space. The operating mechanism is rotatably mounted in the installation box and has a gear. The pneumatic apparatus is installed in the assembling space and has a cylinder and a piston rod. The moveable sleeve is movably mounted on the cylinder and connected with the piston rod and engaged with the gear of the operating mechanism. Because a rotation axis of the gear and a central axis of the moveable sleeve are perpendicular to each other, the volume of the installation box can be reduced.
