Abstract: The invention provides a light uniform device and a digital light processing (DLP) projection system applying the said light uniform device. The light uniform device comprises a light incident surface, a light emergent surface and a light uniform portion defined therebetween. The light incident surface and the light emergent surface have a first contour and a second contour, respectively. And a first projection image of the second contour that is projected onto a projection plane forms a rotational angle about a longitudinal axial direction corresponding to a second projection image of the first contour projected onto the projection plane. Thereby, the light sources may simply be disposed in the projection system to provide uniform light beams that entirely cover the DMD (digital micromirror device) after being uniformed by the light uniform device. Neither of the light sources need to be inclined following with the DMD, nor is additional relay lens needed in imaging.

Abstract: An integrated support structure provides for improved mounting of components such as circuit boards, disk drives, power supplies, and the like. The structure includes an upper frame and a lower frame hinged together and having cooperative elements for capturing components therebetween as the upper frame and lower frame are brought adjacent to one another in parallel relation. A sliding guide and bridge beam clip secure a disk drive to the structure while a hook and spring latch mount a power supply. The frames are suitably formed by structural foam injection molding and the components are secured to the structure without the need for screws. The entire assembly may be inserted in a shell or case for protection thereof. The overall configuration allows rapid assembly for production and rapid disassembly for service.

Abstract: A knock-out in the wall of the housing for electronic equipment is selectively removed to provide a knock-out opening. A wall includes first and second slits positioned along the boundary of the knock-out and separated by a land. The wall includes a break out opening adjacent to each land. Break portions of the wall separate the break out opening from the first and second slits. These break portions are severed to interconnect the first and second slits through the break out opening and permit removal of the knock-out. Plural such slits and break out openings are provided and arranged to provide a knock out of rectangular or other desired geometric shape. The slits and break out openings are sized to provide electromagnetic interference shielding. Also, the break portions are of a length which is approximately no greater than the thickness of the wall and are positioned to facilitate removal of the knock-out without deforming the wall and without leaving burrs in the knock-out opening.
