Abstract: A processing method for implementing high resolution output of a capacitive touch pad on a low-end single-chip microcomputer. The low-end single-chip microcomputer device comprises a master control single-chip microcomputer unit (MCU), a self-checking capacitance sensing module and a capacitive touch pad. The master control single-chip microcomputer module controls the self-checking capacitance sensing module to obtain source data acquired by the self-checking capacitance sensing module from the capacitive touch pad, then the source data are subjected to touch position computing by the master control single-chip microcomputer to obtain an original coordinate data of a touch point, and then a coordinate position can be obtained through an optimizing computation processing.

Abstract: In a preferred embodiment, there is provided a water heater venting assembly for directing a combustion air and a flue gas between an outdoor atmosphere and a water heater, and which includes a generally hollow housing defining a combustion air aperture, a flue gas exhaust conduit disposed in the housing, and an adjustable inlet duct coupling assembly having a retention member for placement in the housing proximal to the aperture, a gasket for placement around an outer periphery of the aperture and a combustion air supply member. The retention member is for retaining the supply member in fluid sealing engagement with the gasket to effect fluid communication between the aperture and the supply member, and is sized to permit slidable movement of the supply member relative to the gasket.

Abstract: Rubber articles are coated with a powder-free coating; the power-free/non-tacky coating comprises a copolymer formed by the sequential polymerization of two mixtures of monomers comprising styrene, alkyl acrylates, acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, and a silicone oligomer. The sequential polymerization of the two monomer mixtures produces a core copolymer surrounded by a shell copolymer, in which the two copolymers have differing glass transition temperatures.

Abstract: There are provided powder-free polymer coated rubber articles coated with a non-tacky acrylic based emulsion copolymer formed by polymerization of at least one low surface energy monomer, at least one alkyl acrylate and at least one hard monomer.
