  • Publication number: 20240111849
    Abstract: A media docking device includes an input circuit, an output circuit and a processing circuit. The input circuit is electrically connected to a media source device for receiving media data. The output circuit is electrically connected to a media play device. The processing circuit is electrically connected to the input circuit and the output circuit. The processing circuit determines if a verification procedure is passed. If the verification procedure is passed, the processing circuit transfers the media data to the media play device. If the verification procedure is not passed, the processing circuit limits a transmission of the media data, such that the media data will not be completely played by the media play device.

    Abstract: A media docking device includes an input module, an output module and a processing module. The input module is electrically connected to a media source device for receiving media data. The output module is electrically connected to a media play device. The processing module determines if an instruction is received from the media source device or a remote device. If the instruction is not received, the processing module transfers the media data to the output module to transmit to the media play device. If the instruction is received, the processing module limits a transmission of the media data according to the instruction, such that the media data will not be completely played by the media play device.

  • Patent number: 11757375
    Abstract: A DC-AC inverter system using a state observer and a control method thereof are provided. The control method of the DC-AC inverter system includes the following steps. The state observer outputs a filter-capacitor-current estimation value at a next sampling time according to a DC link voltage at a current sampling time and a filter-capacitor-voltage actual value at the current sampling time. The filter-inductor-current estimation value at the next sampling time is compared with the filter-capacitor-current estimation value at the next sampling time to obtain a load current estimation value at the next sampling time. An inductor voltage estimator outputs a filter-inductor-voltage estimation value at the next sampling time according to the load current estimation value at the next sampling time. A feed-forward control is performed according to the filter-inductor-voltage estimation value at the next sampling time.

  • Publication number: 20230120743
    Abstract: A low-frequency vibration machining center includes a cam, a transmission shaft, a roller, a tool holder, a driven follower, and an elastic member. An end of the transmission shaft is coaxially connected to the cam, and another end is provided for connecting to a driving device, which is adapted to drive the transmission shaft and the cam to rotate about a first axial direction. The roller is disposed at a position where the roller touches a cam surface of the cam. A second axial direction is defined to be perpendicular to the first axial direction. The roller and the tool holder are disposed at two opposite sides of the driven follower, respectively. The elastic member provides an elastic force to keep the roller being in contact with the cam surface. When the cam is rotated, the roller is pushed to move the driven follower and the tool holder in the second axial direction.
