  • Publication number: 20140339887
    Abstract: A vehicle wheel includes a wheel body and a plurality of rim blades. The plurality of rim blades is coupled to at least one side surface of the wheel body. Each of the rim blades is provided with at least one airflow guide section and at least one airflow-assisting section. The airflow guide section and the airflow-assisting section are arranged in the form of front and rear series on the rim blade. When the vehicle wheel is coupled with a tire, the airflow guide section is located at the side of the rim blade facing a forwarding direction of rotation of the wheel and the airflow-assisting section is located at the side of the rim blade opposite to the forwarding rotation of the wheels. As such, airflow is increased, wind resistance is reduced, and noise is reduced.

  • Publication number: 20130328778
    Abstract: A method of simulating the touch screen operation by means of a mouse is provided and particularly makes the mouse work in a computer operating system with a screen touch function. The mouse comprises at least one simulation touch trigger button and one touch signal converter unit. Press the simulation touch trigger button, and the mouse will work in the touch mode. The touch signal converter unit intercepts a pressed button signal of the mouse and converts it into a screen touch signal for executing single-finger or multi-finger slide and touch functions. The mouse is further provided with a fixed-point button, and when the fixed-point button is pressed, where the mouse is corresponding to the screen, a finger press is simulated. The pressed position is fixed and does not move, and another button of the mouse is pressed to operate for executing the screen zoom-in, zoom-out, and rotation.
