  • Publication number: 20200232953
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a pollutant generation system. The pollutant generation system includes a pollution source and a pollutant emitter. The pollutant emitter is connected to the pollution source. The pollution source is composed of two gases including air and methane. The flows of the gases are strictly controlled. Then, the gases enter a magnetic bead glass bottle. Due to the disturbance of magnetic beads to the flowing of the gases, the gases are sufficiently disordered, and the two gases are sufficiently mixed by using a spiral tube to generate a uniform and stable pollution source.

  • Publication number: 20200220520
    Abstract: Devices and processes for preparing devices are described for reducing resonance of spurious waves in a bulk acoustic resonator and/or for obstructing propagation of lateral waves out of an active region of the bulk acoustic resonator. A first electrode is coupled to a first side of a piezoelectric layer and a second electrode is coupled to a second side of the piezoelectric layer to form a stack having the active region. The piezoelectric layer in the active region is configured to resonate in response to an electrical signal applied between the first electrode and the second electrode. One or more perforations in the first electrode, the piezoelectric layer and/or the second electrode, and/or one or more posts or beams supporting the stack, reduce resonance of spurious waves and obstruct propagation of lateral acoustic waves out of the active region.

  • Publication number: 20200191954
    Abstract: A three dimensional (3D) detection device has a detection supporter base to be disposed on a transmission device, ultrasonic transceiver modules disposed on at least one inner base surface of the detection supporter base and a controller. When a tested object is transmitted by the transmission device and then enters the detection supporter base, the ultrasonic transceiver modules emit ultrasonic signals to the tested object, and the tested object reflects the ultrasonic signals to the ultrasonic transceiver modules. The ultrasonic transceiver modules generate detection signals according to the reflected ultrasonic signals. The detection signals are sent to the controller, and the controller generates an ultrasonic image corresponding to a tested object according to the detection signals, and then compares the ultrasonic image to a pre-established original 3D image, so to achieve a surface detection objective.

  • Publication number: 20200028482
    Abstract: Devices and processes for preparing devices are described for a bulk acoustic wave resonator. A stack includes a first electrode that is coupled to a first side of a piezoelectric layer and a second electrode that is coupled to a second side of the piezoelectric layer. The stack is configured to resonate in response to an electrical signal applied between the first electrode and the second electrode. A cavity frame is coupled to the first electrode and to the substrate. The cavity frame forms a perimeter around a cavity. Optionally, a heat dissipating frame is formed and coupled to the second electrode. The cavity frame and/or the heat dissipating frame improve the thermal stability of the bulk acoustic resonator.

  • Publication number: 20190346566
    Abstract: A surface detection method of the present disclosure firstly establishes at least one ultrasonic image model and at least one optical image model, and then respectively compares a tested ultrasonic image and a tested optical image of a test object to obtain two comparison results after acquiring the tested ultrasonic image and the tested optical image of the test object, so as to achieve an objective of surface detection. The present disclosure not only can obtain an accurate detection result, but also reduce the much detection time, therefore being suitable for the application of the automatically continuous processing process. Accordingly, the present disclosure provides a relatively positive and reliable means for preventing from the continuous production of fault products, and for monitoring the availability of the production processing line device.

  • Patent number: 10267493
    Abstract: An optical device includes a clamp seat and a light tuning assembly. The clamp seat includes a base, a curved portion extending from the base, and a pressing portion extending from the curved portion. The light tuning assembly includes a support frame disposed at the base, an optical lens restrained by the support frame, and an adjusting member coordinating with the optical lens. In an application of the optical device, a user may clamp a multimedia mobile communication device by the base and the pressing portion to allow the optical lens to align with a light projecting assembly of the multimedia mobile communication device. The adjusting member is rotated to adjust a distance between the optical lens and the light projecting assembly. Light from the light projecting assembly is then focused or dispersed through the optical lens to solve an issue of unadjustable light of a conventional solution.
