  • Patent number: 11937415
    Abstract: A method of forming a semiconductor device includes providing a substrate including a circuit region and a well strap region, forming a mandrel extending from the circuit region to the well strap region, depositing mandrel spacers on sidewalls of the mandrel, removing the mandrel in the circuit region, while the mandrel in the well strap region remains intact, patterning the substrate with the mandrel spacers in the circuit region and the mandrel in the well strap region as an etch mask, thereby forming at least a first fin in the circuit region and a second fin in the well strap region, and epitaxially growing a first epitaxial feature over the first fin in the circuit region and a second epitaxial feature over the second fin in the well strap region. A width of the second fin is larger than a width of the first fin.

  • Patent number: 11498187
    Abstract: A clamping device includes first and second clamping components and at least one elastic component. The first clamping component includes a first clamping portion and two first pivot portions connected to the first clamping portion. The second clamping component includes a second clamping portion and two second pivot portions connected to the second clamping portion. The second pivot portions are pivotally connected to the first pivot portions respectively, such that the first and second clamping components are capable of rotating relative to each other to present a first state and a second state. The elastic component is connected to the first clamping component and the second clamping component. When the first and second clamping components are in the second state, the elastic component provides an elastic force for the first clamping portion and the second clamping portion to be restored to the first state to clamp an object.

  • Patent number: 11364594
    Abstract: A clamping device includes a first, a second clamping member, a first, a second connecting rod, and an elastic member. The first clamping member includes a first side and a second side opposite to each other. The second clamping member includes a third side and a fourth side opposite to each other. The first connecting rod is pivotally disposed between the first side and the third side. The second connecting rod is pivotally disposed between the second side and the fourth side. The elastic member is connected between the third side and the first connecting rod. The elastic member provides a restoring force to make the first connecting rod rotate relative to the second clamping member, to drive the second connecting rod and the first clamping member to rotate, so that a distance between the first and the second clamping member is shortened to clamp an object.

  • Patent number: 10306785
    Abstract: A display device includes a flexible display panel and a housing. The housing includes connectors and couplers. Each of the connectors includes two accommodating slots. The connectors and the couplers are sequentially arranged in a staggered manner and connected with one another. Each of the couplers includes a coupling body and two cylinders. The two cylinders are connected to two sides of the coupling body. Each of the cylinders is disposed in the accommodating slot of the adjacent connector. A radial interval of an opening of the accommodating slot is greater than a thickness of the coupling body and is less than a diameter of the cylinder. While the housing is being bent along with the flexible display panel, the adjacent two connectors are being away from each other until the cylinder in the accommodating slot is blocked by the corresponding opening.

  • Publication number: 20170045912
    Abstract: An electronic device comprises a first electronic component and a second electronic component. The first and second electronic components are pivoted and electrically connected to each other. A first substrate and a second substrate of the second electronic component are opposite to each other. The switch is positioned between the first substrate and the elastic member which is in movable to contact with or be away from the switch. When the first electronic component is rotated to a side of the first substrate, the magnetic member attracts the elastic member so that the elastic member is moved toward the first substrate and contacts the switch. When the first electronic component is rotated to a side of the second substrate, the magnetic member attracts the elastic member so that the elastic member is moved toward the second substrate and is disposed away from the switch.
