Abstract: A dielectric barrier discharge lamp includes a lamp tube, a discharge gas, a support member, a first electrode, and a second electrode. The lamp tube has a first and a second sealed end. The discharge gas is filled in the lamp tube. The support member is disposed at the first sealed end and extended toward the inside of the lamp tube. The support member has an accommodating space with its opening facing the inside of the lamp tube. The first electrode is disposed in the lamp tube. A first terminal of the first electrode passes through the opening of the accommodating space. A gap exists between an end of the first terminal of the first electrode and a closed end of the accommodating space. A second terminal of the first electrode penetrates and is closely fitted with the second sealed end. The second electrode is disposed outside the lamp tube.

Abstract: A 360° bi-directional rotary hinge formed of a fixed bracket, a rotary bracket, a limiter plate, a stop plate, a positioning plate, a spring ring and a fastening member for use in a folding electronic device is disclosed. Subject to matching between bottom blocks of the limiter plate and arched sliding grooves of the stop plate, movement of the stop plate is constrained by the fixed bracket, and therefore rotation of the rotary bracket of the 360° bi-directional rotary hinge is limited to a forward and backward 360° angle. Further, the stop plate carries an index block corresponding to a ?180° angle indication hole and a 180° angle indication hole on the base member of the folding electronic device for giving an indication when the rotary bracket is rotated to +180° or ?180° angle relative to the fixed bracket.

Abstract: A one-body hollow precision cast metal golf club head is fabricated by casting metal about a head core to form a shell, and melting and flowing out the head core. The head core is made of low melting point alloys having a melting point lower than that of the metal used for casting the shell and is coated with an aqueous solution prior to the casting process of the shell. The aqueous solution is a composition including inorganic powders, binders and solvent. The ratio of components should be inorganic powder:binder:solvent=(40-80):(1-10):(10-59) based on weight.
