  • Publication number: 20240337147
    Abstract: This disclosure is directed to a driving device for driving a swing member which has a driving power source, a power transmission assembly driven by the driving power source, a screw assembly and a clutch assembly arranged between the power transmission assembly and the screw assembly. The screw assembly has a nut and a screw rod screwed with each other. The screw rod has an end connected with the swing member. The nut can be operated by the clutch assembly to connected to or release the power transmission assembly. When the nut is connected to the power transmission assembly, the power transmission assembly is driven by the driving power source, so that the nut is driven by the power transmission assembly to move the screw rod and allow the swing member to be operated by an external force in any status during a power-driven operation of opening or closing.

  • Patent number: 11730548
    Abstract: An OCT scanning probe includes a tubular housing, at least one electrode, an optical fiber scanner and an auxiliary localization component. The electrode is disposed on an outer surface of the tubular housing. The optical fiber scanner is disposed in the tubular housing and includes an optical fiber and an optical element. The optical element is disposed on an emitting end of the optical fiber and at corresponding position to a light transmittable portion of the tubular housing. The auxiliary localization component is disposed on the tubular housing, and overlaps part of the light transmittable portion. A light beam emitted from the optical fiber scanner passes through the light transmittable portion to obtain a tomographic image. An interaction of the light beam with the auxiliary localization component causes a characteristic in the tomographic image, with the characteristic corresponding to the auxiliary localization component.

  • Patent number: 9101072
    Abstract: A method of embedding a magnetic component in a substrate is disclosed. Holes are formed in a substrate by mechanically drilling. Each of the holes includes a top opening, a bottom and sidewall, wherein an area of the top opening is larger than that of the bottom. The sidewall extends from the top opening vertically downwards to a predetermined depth, and then is slanted inwardly to the bottom to form a sloped sidewall at the bottom of the hole. A predetermined region is defined along a portion of an edge of the top opening, and a portion of the substrate material under the predetermined region is removed by routing to form a component accommodation trench with a portion of the sloped sidewall at the bottom. Then, a magnetic component is placed into the component accommodation trench.
