  • Publication number: 20170115798
    Abstract: A driving circuit for a touch display panel is selectively operable in a display mode or a touch mode. The driving circuit includes a touch driving circuit and a display driving circuit. When the driving circuit operates in the display mode, the display driving circuit transmits corresponding data to multiple data lines of a pixel array of the touch display panel. When the driving circuit operates in the touch mode, the touch driving circuit transmits a driving signal to a common electrode of the touch display panel, and the display driving circuit controls at least a part of multiple gate lines and multiple data lines of the pixel array to cause that part to have a signal waveform at least partially same as that of the driving signal. A voltage of the common electrode reflects a touch action.

  • Patent number: 9614989
    Abstract: A scanner with a detachable mechanism to release jammed paper includes a base a, a pickup roller, a pickup mechanism and a scanning module. The base includes an accommodating space and a feeding slot connected to the accommodating space. The pickup roller is rotatably disposed in the base and positioned between the accommodating space and the feeding slot. The pickup mechanism is disposed in the base and adjacent to the pickup roller. The scanning module is detachably disposed in the accommodating space. The scanning module forces the pickup mechanism against the pickup roller when the scanning module is placed in the accommodating space. A pressure exerted on the pickup roller by the pickup mechanism is released when the scanning module is removed out of the accommodating space.

  • Publication number: 20170050476
    Abstract: A tire-monitoring device is arranged on a tire and includes a tire pressure sensor and a temperature sensor respectively sense tire pressure and temperature and respectively generate a tire pressure signal and a temperature signal received by a controller. When the controller determines that the tire pressure value continuously varies for a preset period or determines that a rising variation of the temperature value is larger than a preset variation, the controller generates a transmission control signal received by a wireless transmitter. The wireless transmitter transmits the tire pressure signal and the temperature signal to an external device, so as to display the tire pressure value and the temperature value. The present invention directly observes that the vehicle has started according to the continual variation of the tire pressure value and the variation of the temperature value and notifies the transmitter that the transmitter transmits the signal.
