  • Patent number: 8820537
    Abstract: A jig assembly for selecting and presenting fastener nuts in the correct orientation, each fastener nut including a nut cap and an assembling portion formed on an end of the fastener nut. The diameter of the nut cap is larger than the diameter of the assembling portion. The jig assembly includes an electric cabinet, a jig bracket, a feed container, and a sorting tray. The feed container includes a selector with an opening. The width of the opening is equal to the height of the fastener nut, the first sidewall of the selector forms a plurality of restricting protrusions, and each two adjacent restricting protrusions cooperatively define a restricting groove therebetween. The width of each restricting groove is equal to the diameter of the assembling portion, thus only fastener nuts in the correct orientation are capable of passing through the selector to be collected in the sorting tray.

  • Patent number: 8418750
    Abstract: A heat exchanger radiating fin structure and a heat exchanger thereof. The radiating fin includes a main body and at least one rib. The main body has a first plane face and at least one lateral side. Multiple depressions are formed on the first plane face. The rib is disposed on a portion of the first plane face, which portion is free from any of the depressions. The rib obliquely extends in a direction neither normal nor parallel to any lateral side of the first plane face. The heat exchanger includes a radiating fin assembly composed of multiple piled up radiating fins. Each two adjacent radiating fins define therebetween a flow way having at least one inlet and at least one outlet. With the depressions and the rib, the structural strength of the radiating fin is increased and the heat exchange performance of the heat exchanger is enhanced.
