Abstract: A circulating module of a linear guideway includes a slider and a circulator. The slider has two carrying surfaces arranged on two opposite outer surface thereof. Each carrying surface includes a first circular-arc segment and two second circular segments respectively arranged at two opposite sides of the first circular-arc segment, and a radius of each first circular-arc segment is smaller than that of each second circular-arc segment. The circulator includes two inner circular-arc surfaces. The slider is inserted into the circulator, the carrying surfaces stretch a distance between the inner circular-arc surfaces, each inner circular-arc surface is abutted against the two second circular-arc segments of the corresponding carrying surface, and a gap is formed between each inner circular-arc surface and the corresponding first circular-arc segments.

Abstract: An end module of a linear guideway includes an end cap, a cover, and a lubricating sheet. The end cap has an accommodating trough, and the cover is installed on the end cap to cover the accommodating trough, so a surface of the end cap faces a surface of the cover. At least one supporting pillar is formed on one of the two facing surfaces of the end cap and the cover, and the supporting pillar abuts against the other one of the two facing surfaces of the end cap and the cover. The lubricating sheet is received in the accommodating trough. The lubricating sheet has at least one penetrating hole, and the supporting pillar is inserted into the penetrating hole. Thus, the lubricating sheet of the instant disclosure is provided without any deformation, which is caused by the end cap and the cover.

Abstract: An electronic device includes a housing, a covering module, and a temperature sensing module. The housing defines a cooling opening. The temperature sensing module is connected to the covering module and adapted to detect a temperature of the housing and output a control signal to the covering module. When the temperature of the housing is lower than a pre-set temperature, the covering module closes the cooling opening. When the temperature of the housing is equal or greater than the pre-set temperature, the control signal controls the covering module to move relative to the housing and open the cooling opening.
