  • Patent number: 9651242
    Abstract: An illuminating device having folding solar panels, which comprises a lamp cover, a light source, two solar panels, and a folding holder on which the two solar panels are positioned. The opening of the lamp cover is smaller than the deployed area of the folding holder. When it is intended to place the light source, solar panels, and folding holder inside the lamp cover, the folding holder are folded by a predetermined angle so as to pass through the opening of the lamp cover. Accordingly, the illuminating device may significantly reduce the overall volume thereof without compromising the working efficiency. The illuminating device is flexible in arrangement and assembly, and is also more flexible in construction since the solar panels may be positioned at the highest portion to absorb more sunlight.

  • Publication number: 20160377247
    Abstract: A solar powered illumination device comprises solar panels arranged on a flexible holder, which is arranged on an upper surface of a support. A lower housing comprises an outer circumferential wall and an inner circumferential wall, wherein a drain hole is formed between the outer circumferential wall and the inner circumferential wall. A waterproof gasket is arranged between a lower surface of the support and the inner circumferential wall of the lower housing. As the flexible holder is secured on the support, the solar panels are prevented from being shaken or moved arbitrarily due to drastic shaking and therefore the energy conversion efficiency of the solar panels is retained. By means of the lower surface of the support, the waterproof gasket, the inner circumferential wall and the drain hole, a good water resistance can be obtained.

  • Publication number: 20110265784
    Abstract: A driving pinion drives two driven gears which are engaged with the driving pinion to rotate. Two drive bars which are fixed on the driven gears at a set radius respectively are inserted into two elongated openings of a frame which is pivoted on the driving pinion to make the frame seesaw, and then to make a coupler link which is borne on a stand, seesaw synchronously via a rocker mechanism having a four-bar linkage which is pivoted on both ends of the frame. Also, the stand is connected to an inclination adjusting mechanism, so that the inclination of the stand can be changed with respect to a horizontal plane.
