Patent number: 11962225Abstract: A fan braking structure includes a fan including a frame having an upright bearing cup, and a fan impeller having a vertical rotating shaft pivotally received in the bearing cup and provided at a free end with a groove; a braking structure located at a lower part of the bearing cup and including a brake plate and an electromagnet, and the brake plate being provided at one side with a protruded brake pin and at another side with a magnetic member; and an elastic element disposed between and pressed against a top of the shell and the brake plate. When the fan is inactive, the electromagnet is energized to produce magnetic poles that repel the magnetic member and compress the elastic element, such that the brake pin is magnetically pushed toward the rotating shaft to engage with the groove, causing the fan to brake and stop rotating inertially.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2023Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: Asia Vital Components Co., Ltd.Inventors: Chih-Cheng Tang., Hao-Yu Chen, Hsu-Jung Lin

Patent number: 11936278Abstract: A fan braking structure includes a fan including a frame having an upright bearing cup, and a fan impeller having a vertical rotating shaft pivotally received in the bearing cup and provided at a free end with a groove; a braking structure located at a lower part of the bearing cup and including a brake plate and an electromagnet, and the brake plate being provided at one side with a protruded brake pin and at another side with a magnetic member; and an elastic element disposed between and pressed against the brake plate and the electromagnet. When the fan is powered off, the electromagnet is energized and produces magnetic poles that magnetically repel the magnetic member, such that the brake pin is pushed by a magnetic force and the elastic element toward the rotating shaft to engage with the groove, causing the fan to brake and stop rotating inertially.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2023Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: Asia Vital Components Co., Ltd.Inventors: Chih-Cheng Tang, Hao-Yu Chen, Hsu-Jung Lin

Patent number: 11933311Abstract: A fan brake structure includes a fan and a brake device. The fan has a frame body, a fan impeller and a stator. The brake device is disposed under a bottom of a bearing cup. The brake device has a driving member, a brake member and an elastic member. The elastic member abuts against one end of the brake member. The other end of the brake member has a boss body. The driving member has a spiral rail. When the driving member rotates, the boss body moves along the spiral rail, whereby the brake member linearly reciprocally moves upward to brake the fan impeller or linearly reciprocally moves downward to release the fan impeller from the braking.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2023Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: ASIA VITAL COMPONENTS CO., LTD.Inventors: Chih-Cheng Tang, Hao-Yu Chen, Hsu-Jung Lin

Patent number: 8751968Abstract: A system and method for accessing multimedia items using an electronic device determines a set of first level categories based on multimedia items associated with the electronic device. The system determines second level category graphics and first level category graphics corresponding to the set of first level categories. The first level category graphics are generated based on one or more second level category graphics associated with the first level category. The system displays a first view that comprises some or all of the first level category graphics. In response to a user input selecting a particular first level category graphic, the system shows a second view that simultaneously displays first level category graphics and second level category graphics associated with the selected first level category. In response to a user input selecting a second level category, the system displays accesses a multimedia item associated with the selected second level category.Type: GrantFiled: February 1, 2010Date of Patent: June 10, 2014Assignee: HTC CorporationInventors: Drew Bamford, Yi-Shan Lin, I-Fen Shih, Shih-Hao Yeh, Hsu-Jung Chen
