Publication number: 20230259176Abstract: An electronic device includes: a casing, including a first side surface and a second side surface parallel to each other; a positioning column, including a first end portion and a second end portion having a first plane and a first convex portion; and an operating member, assembled on the casing and corresponding to the positioning column, and including a push portion having a second plane and a second convex portion. When the operating member is at a first position, the first convex portion correspondingly presses against the second plane, the second convex portion correspondingly presses against the first plane, and the first end portion is accommodated in the casing. When the operating member is at a second position, the first convex portion correspondingly presses against the second convex portion, and the first end portion protrudes from the first side surface of the casing.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 7, 2022Publication date: August 17, 2023Inventors: PO-YI OU, KAO-WEN CHANG, FANG-PING CHENG, KUANG-YEH CHANG

Patent number: 9351374Abstract: A photo-controlled light includes an electrical power input port configured to receive electrical power, a light emitting unit that is connected to the electrical power input port and a photosensitive timer module that connects the light emitting unit to the electrical power input port. The photosensitive timer module includes a photosensitive switch unit including a photosensitive element that is configured to detect a light level that satisfies a luminosity threshold value, a timing switch unit coupled to the photosensitive switch unit that is configured to only connect the electrical power input port to the light emitting unit for a conduction time frame responsive to the photosensitive switch unit detecting that the light level is less than the luminosity threshold value so that the photosensitive timer module transmits electricity during the conduction time frame when the luminosity detected by the photosensitive element is less than the luminosity threshold value.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 2014Date of Patent: May 24, 2016Assignees: CNL Lighting Corporation, Tyco Electronics CorporationInventors: Wang Chin-Chien, Kao Wen-Chang
