  • Publication number: 20060226796
    Abstract: A high-voltage discharge lamps parallel and driving arrangement includes a first and a second high-voltage discharge lamp bank having a plurality of parallelly connected high-voltage discharge lamps each, and being electrically connected to a first and a second output at a secondary side of a transformer, respectively. A primary side of the transformer is connected to a driving circuit. The lamps are allowed to charge and discharge directly without any current-limiting capacitance. Since the first and the second high-voltage discharge lamp bank are electrically connected to the outputs of a common transformer, the number of transformers used could be reduced to allow increased volume of the transformer, and easy production at high good yield and reduced manufacturing cost.

  • Patent number: 5746033
    Abstract: A construction method for one-step grout fixed window frames on external walls of a concrete-structured building includes the following steps. A window frame including vertical and horizontal sections is fixed with vertical lining boards to the inner side of its vertical sections to form a window frame assembly, and is then supported on an upper supporting board which has been securely attached to a concrete template of an external wall of the building. Template sealing strips are separately attached to an exterior edge and an interior edge of the vertical sections and the upper horizontal section of the window frame assembly, so that a complete molding cavity is formed. Into this molding cavity the grouting concrete is grouted and the window frame is inlaid in the concrete after the concrete is set and the concrete templates are removed.

  • Patent number: 5231787
    Abstract: Stable Bobber for Rod Fishing consists of a stream-line conic rod with a plurality of proper holes at the side of its lower portion, or with two stream-line sections in reverse direction wherein one section is formed by cutting off its lower portion; these two kinds of bobber are either suitable for an open water region or for a close water region and are both very stable and sensitive. When the bobber is floating on the water and the color-striped post is affected by discontinual resistance force from waves and wind to oscillate and fall on the surface of water, the bobber can turn its stream-line to the proper direction and maintain itself upright and stable either by rotating itself to balance the back pressure or by gaining a negative pressure, and thus maintain its stability and sensibility.
