  • Patent number: 11945302
    Abstract: A low-floor electric axle assembly including: an axle housing, two hub motors, two planetary gear reducers, two hubs, a brake system, two C-shaped beams, and a suspension system. Mechanical mounting of the suspension system is compatible with a conventional axle. The axle housing has a left and right symmetrical dumbbell-shaped structure configured to bear a weight of a vehicle. The hub motors are inner rotor type motors and are separately arranged at two ends of the axle housing left and right symmetrically. The hub motors are arranged coaxially with two wheels respectively. Two hub motor rotors are connected to the planetary gear reducers respectively. Each of the planetary gear reducers is a single-stage planetary gear reducer. A sun gear of each of the planetary gear reducers receives power outputted by each of the hub motor. Two planetary gear reducer housings are power output ends connected to two rims respectively.

  • Publication number: 20230035590
    Abstract: A light-guiding structure according to the invention is used in an endoscope for guiding light along a lengthwise direction and includes a first portion and a second portion. The first portion extends in a single cross section along the lengthwise direction. The second portion extends in a varying cross section along the lengthwise direction and is connected to an end of the first portion in the lengthwise direction. An endoscope tip includes a circuit board, an image-capturing component, a light-emitting component, and the light-guiding structure. The light-guiding structure can fit the contours of the circuit board and the image-capturing component to increase space usage for obtaining more cross-sectional area. For the production of the light-guiding structure, the second portion is formed by shaping a portion directly extending form the end of the first portion or by an additional material directly bonded to the end of the first portion by molding.

  • Patent number: 6459507
    Abstract: This invention provides a scanner, which is capable of scanning document images based on a stepping control table and a method to generate such a table. This scanner includes a scanning module to scan a document and generates a responding image signal, a stepping motor to drive the scanning module or the document and a control device to control the operation of the scanning module and the stepping motor. This control device includes a stepping control table, which contains the stepping numbers for the stepping motor to drive the scanning module or the document. While scanning a document, this device will accurately control the stepping motor according to the stepping numbers relating to the locations of the lines to be scanned, and further move the scanning module or the document to a pre-defined position for a scanning task. A design like this will reduce errors in a scanning module's movement caused by the mechanical deviation.
