  • Publication number: 20220301747
    Abstract: A high-power resistor includes a substrate, a resistor layer, two edge electrodes, and a seed layer. The substrate has a first surface. The resistor layer is mounted on the first surface of the substrate. The two edge electrodes are mounted on the resistor layer. The seed layer is mounted between the resistor layer and the two edge electrodes. A contacting surface between one of the two edge electrodes and the resistor layer is bigger than contacting side surfaces of a printed resistor layer and printed conduction layers from a conventional chip resistor, creating less electrical resistance. When high-power electricity passes through the resistor layer, heat generated by a large passing current can be equally dissipated in all directions on the contact surface. With less electrical resistance and better heat dissipation, the contacting surface enables the high-power resistor to tolerate greater electric power.

  • Patent number: 11204240
    Abstract: A strain measurement method includes disposing a 3D camera module at a first measurement position; using the 3D camera module to acquire a first 3D image of a to-be-measured object at a first to-be-measured position; acquiring a second 3D image of the to-be-measured object at the first to-be-measured position; and splicing the first and second 3D images to obtain an initial 3D image. The method still includes: moving the 3D camera module from the first measurement position to a second measurement position; using the 3D camera module to acquire a third 3D image of the to-be-measured object at a second to-be-measured position; acquiring a fourth 3D image of the to-be-measured object at the second to-be-measured position; and splicing the third and fourth 3D images to obtain a deformed 3D image. The method further includes comparing the initial 3D image and the deformed 3D image to output 3D deformation information.

  • Publication number: 20210285272
    Abstract: A hinge mechanism includes a base gudgeon and a pivot pintle. The base gudgeon has a main body and first and second tubular portions formed on the main body and respectively having coaxial first and second pivot holes. The second tubular portion has a first torque regulating formation formed on an inner surrounding wall thereof. The pivot pintle has a first pintle section rotatably inserted into and pressed-fit to the first pivot hole to produce primary frictional torque during pivoting of the pivot pintle, a second pintle section rotatably inserted into and pressed-fit to the second pivot hole to produce secondary frictional torque, and a second torque regulating formation configured to be matingly engaged with the first torque regulating formation in a part of angular positions of the pivot pintle so as to reduce the secondary frictional torque.

  • Patent number: 10309442
    Abstract: A torsion washer of the present disclosure includes a base portion and an elastic unit extended from the base portion. The elastic unit includes an external elastic arm and a torsion-adjusting arm arranged inside the external elastic arm. A space surrounded by the base portion and the external elastic arm is divided into a hole and a slot, in air communication with the hole, by using the torsion-adjusting arm. A distance, i.e., a radius, between the external elastic arm and a center of the hole is larger than a distance, i.e., an interference distance, between the torsion-adjusting arm and the center of the hole. Moreover, the present disclosure provides a torsion device including a plurality of the torsion washers and a shaft coupling through the holes of the torsion washers, and the shaft is configured to selectively contact each torsion-adjusting arm.
