  • Publication number: 20220266381
    Abstract: A welding equipment used to form two welding structures in two target locations of an electronic device is disclosed to include a laser generating device for generating a laser pulse beam, a radiation device scanning the two target locations, and an adjusting device equipped with a beam splitting system for receiving and processing the laser pulse beam. The beam splitting system separates the laser pulse beam into a reflected beam and a penetrating beam to control a radiation angle of the reflected beam and the penetrating beam, and project the reflected beam and the penetrating beam to the radiation device coaxially, so that the radiation device radiates the reflected beam and the penetrating beam coaxially to the two target locations to form the two welding structures. The radiation angle is related to relative positions of the two target locations.

  • Patent number: 10104803
    Abstract: A conveying apparatus with a lift mechanism includes a carrier, a holder, and a lift handle. The holder is pivoted to the carrier and swings between an operating angle and a maintenance angle. A first arm of the lift handle has an acting end, a resistance end, and a second pivot disposed between the acting end and the resistance end and pivoted to the holder. The first arm further has a protruding length protruding from the bottom side of the holder. When the first arm rotates around the second pivot, the resistance end protrudes the protruding length from the bottom side to rest against the carrier and the holder is lifted to the maintenance angle using the protruding length. Therefore, the storage devices in the holder, originally difficult to be maintained, can be lifted and maintained simply and quickly.
