  • Patent number: 11434040
    Abstract: A child-resistant package comprising a tray and a sleeve. The tray is configured to be inserted into said sleeve. The tray comprises external protrusions and the sleeve comprises one or more internal protrusions and access holes. The internal protrusions are configured to engage with the external protrusions when the tray and the sleeve are in a closed position, such that the tray is substantially prevented from being taken out of the closed position without disengaging the external protrusions from the internal protrusions. Each of the access holes overlaps with an end of each of the external protrusions, such that a user may access and disengage the external protrusions from the one or more internal protrusions, such that the tray is no longer prevented from being taken out of the closed position.

  • Publication number: 20170290414
    Abstract: A foldable leg frame arrangement of a foldable table includes two runners extended along two longitudinal sides of a tabletop, a leg frame including a leg folding member, and a reinforcement unit. Each runner has a fastening hole formed at an inner side thereof. The leg folding member has two end portions rotatably inserted into the fastening holes of the runners respectively. The reinforcement unit includes two reinforcing shafts transversely extended from the runners respectively, wherein when the end portions of said leg folding member are rotatably inserted into the fastening holes of the runners respectively, the reinforcing shafts are inserted into the end portions of the leg folding member respectively. Therefor, the reinforcement unit not only forms a double lock configuration to securely mount the leg frame between the runners but also guides the leg frame to be rotated between a folded position and an unfolded position.

  • Patent number: 9770095
    Abstract: A foldable table includes a first tabletop panel, a second tabletop panel, and a reinforcing frame which includes first through fourth reinforcing members mounted along longitudinal sides of the first and second tabletop panels respectively, a first transverse member transversely extended between outer end portions of the first and second reinforcing members at the first tabletop panel, and a second transverse member transversely extended between outer end portions of the third and fourth reinforcing members at the second tabletop panel. Two ends of the first transverse member are affixed to the first and second reinforcing members in a non-rotatably movable manner. Two ends of the second transverse member are affixed to the third and fourth reinforcing members in a non-rotatably movable manner. Therefore, the first and second transverse members enhance the rigidity of the reinforcement frame to support two transverse sides of the first and second tabletop panels respectively.

  • Patent number: 9748001
    Abstract: Column based defect management techniques are presented. Each column of the memory has an associated isolation latch or register whose value indicates whether the column is defective, but in addition to this information, for columns marked as defective, additional information is used to indicate whether the column as a whole is to be treated as defective, or whether just individual bits of the column are defective. The defective elements can then be re-mapped to a redundant element at either the appropriate bit or column level based on the data. When a column is bad, but only on the bit level, the good bits can still be used for data, although this may be done at a penalty of under programming for some bits, as is described further below. A self contained Built In Self Test (BIST) flow constructed to collect the bit information through a set of column tests is also described.

  • Patent number: 9733574
    Abstract: Manufacturing of semiconductor devices often involves performed photolithography to pattern and etch the various features of those devices. Such photolithography involves masking and focusing light onto a surface of the semiconductor device for exposing and etching the features of the semiconductor devices. However, due to design specifications and other causes, the semiconductor devices may not have a perfectly flat light-incident surface. Rather, some areas of the semiconductor device may be raised or lowered relative to other areas of the semiconductor device. Therefore, focusing the light on one area causes another to become unfocused. By carefully designing a photomask to cause phase shifts of the light transmitted therethrough, focus across all areas of the semiconductor device can be achieved during photolithography, which results in sharp and accurate patterns formed on the semiconductor device.
