Patent number: 12221779Abstract: A flushing switch device with automatic pressing stroke detection is provided, which is applied to the flushing switches of a toilet. The flushing switch device with automatic pressing stroke detection includes a capacitive sensor, an actuator, and a protector. The capacitive sensor senses a user's hand movements to generate a sensing signal. The actuator includes a driver and a pressing mechanism; the driver drives the pressing mechanism to press one of the flushing switches. The protector includes a detector and a controller; the detector detects a load variation during an operation of the actuator to generate a detection signal; the controller receives the sensing signal and correspondingly generates a control signal to control the actuator according to the sensing signal and the detection signal.Type: GrantFiled: March 13, 2023Date of Patent: February 11, 2025Assignee: Taiwan Name Plate Co., Ltd.Inventors: Wen-Cheng Yin, Fu-Jung Cheng, Ho-Chuan Hsu, Yu-Hsun Tseng, Chao-Chin Chang, Kai-Li Peng

Publication number: 20210380369Abstract: A switch device for an elevator is arranged to manipulate a physical button of the elevator. The physical button is triggered to generate an operating signal to control the operation of the elevator. The switch device for the elevator includes a motion sensor, an actuator and a controller. The motion sensor detects the movement of a user to generate a sense signal. The actuator is disposed at the position corresponding to the physical button. The actuator presses the physical button based on a control signal. The controller is electrically connected to the motion sensor and the actuator. The controller receives the sense signal and generates the control signal based on the sense signal. The controller transmits the control signal to the actuator. A switch device of an elevator is able to manipulate the elevator under the condition that the user does not touch the physical button.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 30, 2021Publication date: December 9, 2021Inventors: WEN-CHENG YIN, HO-CHUAN HSU, FU-JUNG CHENG

Patent number: 8042730Abstract: A food menu having electronic labels is disclosed. The food menu comprises at least one ordering page and at least one electronic label. Each ordering page has at least one product data. The electronic label is installed on the ordering page, and each electronic label includes an IC data, a first sensing unit, a second sensing unit and a fixed pad. The IC data is corresponding to the product data. The fixed pad is provided for fixing the first sensing unit and the second sensing unit, and enabling the first sensing unit to rotate. When the customer rotates the first sensing unit till the first sensing section of the first sensing unit corresponds to the second sensing section of the second sensing unit, the electronic label is triggered to generate a sensing signal for transmitting the IC data of the product so as to select the product data corresponding thereto.Type: GrantFiled: May 12, 2008Date of Patent: October 25, 2011Assignee: Taiwan Name Plate Co., Ltd.Inventors: Wen Cheng Yin, Ho-Chuan Hsu
