  • Publication number: 20140307433
    Abstract: A reflective diffusion lens may include a bottom surface concave toward a reflective surface, a longitudinal cross section of the bottom surface being formed in a parabolic shape or normal distribution shape such that light incident upon the bottom surface is incident upon the reflective surface, and the reflective surface concave toward the bottom surface. The reflective surface may include a concave surface having a longitudinal cross section formed in a parabolic shape or normal distribution shape to totally reflect the light transmitted from the bottom surface and incident upon the reflective surface. A lighting installation may include at least one light source to emit light, a reflective diffusion lens to collect light emitted from the light source, and a reflective plate positioned at a lower portion of the light source and adapted to adjust a direction or amount of light reaching the reflective plate.

  • Patent number: 8162501
    Abstract: A display device including a plurality of light sources spaced apart from one another, a refracting plate disposed over the plurality of light sources, and first and second refracting surfaces formed at both surfaces of the refracting plate to allow light emitted from the light sources to be scattered plural times by passing through the refracting plate, the first and second refracting surfaces having different shapes from each other. With the display device, light emitted from the light sources can be uniformly diffused, whereby high brightness uniformity can be accomplished even at positions relatively close to the light source, resulting in a reduction in a thickness of the display device.

  • Patent number: 7512960
    Abstract: A hub-mounted optical disk to eliminate the need for a separate stack ring while decreasing the overall height, a method of fabricating the optical disk, and an injection molding die for manufacturing an optical disk substrate. The hub-mounted optical disk includes a substrate having a hollow and an indented portion engraved to a predetermined depth on the inside of a non-recording surface where no information is recorded; and a hub including a plate that has a fitting hole therein and is engaged into the hollow and the indented portion and a central ring that is inserted into the fitting hole. The method of fabricating the hub-mounted optical disk includes mounting the hub onto a magnetic chuck, applying an ultra-violet (UV) hardening resin on the indented portion of the substrate, operating the magnetic chuck so that the plate is in contact with the indented portion, and curing the UV hardening resin by irradiating it with UV light.

  • Patent number: 7263705
    Abstract: A disc cartridge and a disc drive apparatus. The disc cartridge includes an upper case and a lower case which form an internal space to accommodate a disc, and a pair of elastic protrusions formed at both sidewalls of the lower cases, which are elastically biased toward the internal space so that ends of the elastic protrusions support the disc. Surfaces are formed at the ends to slope toward the internal space so that the disc is located in an upper portion of the internal space and the pair of elastic protrusions supports the disc. The disc descends on the surfaces when the pair of elastic protrusions are opened and the disc is then located in a lower portion of the internal space.
