  • Publication number: 20090141006
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a touch screen system comprising LED infrared transceivers installed at appropriate positions on left and right sides of the screen respectively, and a transmitter end of the transceiver transmits LED infrared waves and spreads spherical waves all over the surface of the screen. If the surface of the screen receives an intrusion from a touch control element, the spherical waves will be interfered, interrupted and reflected, and the wave frequency of the reflection will be detected by the receiver end of the transceiver. After the receiver end has received a reflection signal, the position coordinates of the touch control element can be analyzed through the operation of a core logical unit. A display module is provided for showing the movement path of the touch control element in images or lines, so as to provide a touch screen with low manufacturing cost and long life expectancy.

  • Patent number: 7541847
    Abstract: A power-diode driver uses a single power source to supply power to the sub-drivers inside. The sub-drivers are well isolated so that they can be safely and easily expanded by connecting to other device or driver. Thus, the power-diode driver has a changeable turn-on time and a highly modulated assembly. And, hence, the present invention is suitable for mass producing reliable power-diode drivers.

  • Publication number: 20070247083
    Abstract: A driving device for driving a lamp (L2) includes a power stage circuit (21), a transformer circuit (22), a resonance circuit (23) and a PWM controller (25). The power stage circuit converts a received direct current (DC) signal to an alternating current (AC) signal. The transformer circuit is connected to the power stage circuit, for stepping up the AC signal. The transformer circuit includes a transformer and a capacitor. The transformer has a primary winding and a secondary winding. The capacitor is connected between a high voltage terminal and a low voltage terminal of the secondary winding of the transformer. The PWM controller is connected to the power stage circuit, for controlling output of the power stage circuit.

  • Publication number: 20070200511
    Abstract: A voltage detection circuit includes a voltage obtaining circuit for transforming an AC signal into a voltage signal, an over-voltage detection circuit connected to the voltage obtaining circuit, and an under-voltage detection circuit connected to the voltage obtaining circuit. The over-voltage detection circuit is for determining whether the AC signal is over-voltage, and generating an over-voltage signal if the voltage signal is over-voltage. The over-voltage detection circuit includes a first transistor. The first transistor includes a first control electrode electrically connected to the voltage obtaining circuit, a first electrode, and a second electrode. The under-voltage detection circuit is for determining whether the AC signal is under-voltage, and generating an under-voltage signal if the voltage signal is under-voltage. The under-voltage detection circuit includes a second transistor.

  • Patent number: 6241705
    Abstract: A nasal irrigator mainly includes a saline container having an upward inclined bottom conduit, a lower cap connected to a free end of the conduit, and a plug fitted around a front tube portion of the lower cap for extending into a patient's nostril. The tube portion of the lower cap is provided around an outer periphery of a front end with an annular rib. A stopper is fixed in and projected forward from the front end of the tube portion such that a passage is formed between the stopper and the tube portion. The plug has a front head portion provided with an axial through hole and a rear sleeve portion adapted to fitly put around the tube portion of the lower cap. The plug may be pushed toward the lower cap so that the stopper extends into and blocks the through hole of the plug, and saline in the container could not be supplied into the plug via the through hole.
