Abstract: A full-frequency band high quality speaker with a bar and sound tunnels includes a voice coil, magnet, diaphragm and magnetically conductive structure; the diaphragm is conical, a bridge-style bar is on the surface of at least one side of the diaphragm; the diaphragm includes at least two grooves, each horizontally radial; each groove crosses the bridge-type bar in the horizontal direction and the length direction of the groove is perpendicular to the bridge-type bar; the groove is concave on the surface of the diaphragm to form a sound tunnel. The diaphragm is changed to the current standard vibration mode, and the timbre of treble register is not bright and the timbre of bass register is not sonorous and mellow enough from the perspective of vibration, resonance and phonation. The practice proves that the improved scheme has outstanding substantive characteristics and remarkable technical progress, and has obtained obvious technical results.

Abstract: An assembled subway station and a construction method thereof are provided. The assembled subway station includes a plurality of components combined in a ring shape, comprising a bottom plate component, two bottom corner components, two side wall components, a middle plate component, two top corner components, and a top plate component. Connection surfaces of each component are each provided with a concave-convex structure being matched with another concave-convex structure on a relevant connection surface of an adjacent component. Butt joint positions of two adjacent components are filled with sealing structures. The embedded grooves of two adjacent components are oppositely arranged, and connecting members for exerting opposite fastening forces on the two adjacent components are installed in the oppositely arranged embedded grooves.

Abstract: A hybrid sensor for calibrating a primary active infrared (IR) sensor to more accurately locate, continuously calibrate, and conserve energy by more accurately detecting via the active IR detection is described herein. The hybrid sensor includes one or more infrared sensors and one or more time-of-flight sensors. The time-of-flight sensor may remain in a dormant state (e.g., low power or sleep mode) until the one or more infrared sensors detect an object. In response to detecting an object, the time-of-flight sensor may be activated to obtain several measurements of the object. After obtaining the measurements, the time-of-flight sensor may return to its dormant state. The hybrid sensor may use the measurements obtained by the time-of-flight sensor to calibrate the one or more infrared sensors to provide more accurate measurements on an object-by-object basis.

Abstract: A light ring assembly for a bathroom fixture. The light ring may illuminate one or more light sources in a predetermined sequence and/or in an overlapping manner to create a pulse of light that traverses the circumference of the light ring. Different patterns, colors, and/or sequences of light may be used to convey messages and signals to owners, maintenance, and/or users.

Abstract: An optical system includes one or several passive optical detectors sensitive to ambient (room) light for controlling, for example, the operation of automatic faucets or automatic bathroom flushers. The passive optical sensors provide signals to flow controllers, including control electronics and flow valves and require only very small amounts of electrical power for sensing users of bathroom facilities, and thus enable battery operation for many years. To control the operation of automatic faucets or automatic bathroom flushers based on ambient light, the controller executes novel algorithms.
