  • Patent number: 11948722
    Abstract: A planar winding transformer includes a magnetic core set and a multilayer circuit board. The magnetic core set includes two magnetic cores and two magnetic columns. The two magnetic cores are parallel to each other. The multilayer circuit board is disposed between two magnetic cores, and two magnetic columns penetrate through the multilayer circuit board. The multilayer circuit board includes two low voltage winding layers and one high voltage winding layer. Two low voltage winding layers are connected to each other in parallel, and the high voltage winding layer is disposed between two low voltage winding layers. When the high voltage winding layer receives a polarity current, at least one of the low voltage winding layers generates a corresponding induced current. Two magnetic cores and two magnetic columns form a closed path for magnetic flux.

  • Patent number: 9809156
    Abstract: A safety indicating apparatus is provided for a vehicle that includes a turn direction manual switch, a turn direction detector, two turn signal indicator lamps, and a turn signal control module. The turn signal control module is configured for operatively determining whether the desired turn direction indicated by the desired turn signal is corresponding to the actual turn direction indicated by the actual turn signal while the operator turns the vehicle. Accordingly, the turn signal control module can automatically turn on/off the turn signal indicator lamps in response to the actual turn direction of the vehicle to avoid a near miss or a traffic accident.
