Publication number: 20240147635Abstract: A case with screw thread in a sealed manner for communication equipment includes an upper cover and a bottom cover. The inner surface of the upper cover has an internal screw thread. The outer surface of the bottom cover has an external screw thread. When the external screw thread is fixed with the internal screw thread, the inner surface of the upper cover is in contact with the outer surface of the bottom cover in a sealed state, and the upper cover and the bottom cover form a receiving space. The case provides the following advantages: quickly and repeated assembly and disassembly; no need for any space for bolts so as to minimizes the size; without bolt, no need for washers or sealant; good sealing properties and good waterproof effect so as to prevent water from entering the case.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 31, 2023Publication date: May 2, 2024Inventors: Sheng Chung Chen, Ben Hong Chen, I Feng Ou

Patent number: 8698960Abstract: A decoder and a method for separating luminance and chrominance information from a target pixel in a composite video signal are provided. The decoder comprises a delay module, a filter module, a weighting factor generator, and a separator. The delay module is configured to delay a plurality of horizontal lines of the composite video signal to output a plurality of pixels including the target pixel. The filter module is coupled to the delay module and configured to filter the composite video signal in a horizontal direction and a vertical direction to generate a plurality of frequency components. The weighting factor generator is configured to generate a first weighting factor of the target pixel according to the horizontal direction and a second weighting factor of the target pixel according to the vertical direction. The separator is configured to separate luminance information from the target pixel in accordance with the frequency components, the first weighting factor, and the second weighting factor.Type: GrantFiled: March 18, 2008Date of Patent: April 15, 2014Assignee: Mediatek Inc.Inventor: I-Hong Chen

Patent number: 8595103Abstract: A system and operations include software, servers, templates, databases, and user interfaces for initializing and deploying insurance products and offerings into test runtime environments, modeling runtime environments, and commercial product runtime environments. The system may process an insurance product offering having insurance product components based on a package manifest. The package manifest may be generated prior to deployment based on arrangement of the insurance product components in an insurance product framework of the insurance product offering and third part engine servers executable in conjunction with the insurance product components. As a prerequisite to generation of the package manifest, the system may perform a coherency check of the insurance product offering to confirm compliance with a set of coherency check rules.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2010Date of Patent: November 26, 2013Assignee: Accenture Global Services LimitedInventors: Jeffrey M. Wargin, Andy I-Hong Chen, Richard Carl Brandt

Patent number: 8332870Abstract: In one example, a system to integrate a first application with a second application may associate a component type in the first application with an engine object type in the second application. The component type and the engine object type may be program object types. The system may determine a hierarchical structure that includes an engine object of the engine object type from configurable rules that are associated with the component type. The system may initiate a copy of the engine object in the second application in response to receipt of a request to copy a component of the component type in the first application.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 2008Date of Patent: December 11, 2012Assignee: Accenture Global Services LimitedInventors: Jeffrey M.
