  • Publication number: 20190373433
    Abstract: An automated method is provided for initiating a transaction function in a transaction processing device. The method comprises establishing near field communication between the transaction processing device and an NFC transmitting device having an associated tag identifier and receiving NFC information including the tag identifier. The transaction processing device transmits the NFC information to a merchant processor and receives from the merchant processor a tag rule communication including an instruction to carry out a transaction function associated with the tag identifier or a request to associate a new transaction function with the tag identifier. Responsive to receiving an instruction to carry out a transaction function associated with the tag identifier, the transaction processing device executes the transaction function.

  • Publication number: 20190280439
    Abstract: A connector comprises a plurality of outer conductors including a first outer conductor and a second outer conductor slidably assembled together, a plurality of center conductors disposed in the outer conductors and including a first center conductor and a second center conductor slidably assembled together, an insulation seat molded on the first outer conductor, and a first elastic element disposed outside of a portion of the outer conductors. The first outer conductor has an electrical contact pin configured to electrically contact a first electronic component. The electrical contact pin is exposed outside from a surface of the insulation seat. An end of the first elastic element abuts the insulation seat and is adapted to apply an axial thrust to the first outer conductor.

  • Publication number: 20080277896
    Abstract: The Swing Powered Scooter is to provide a transportation powered by hands instead of by feet. It has a handlebar on top of a swing pole, with a center point which is supported by an inner ring of a bearing on a board; Using pulling or pushing action drives wheels move, at same time, the handlebar steers in the forward direction. The bottom of the swing pole drives an increasing gear ratio mechanism; and by positioning an idler gear to change speeds or by 2 chains. Furthermore using a rack and a passive gear makes this invention is able to use pushing or pulling or both actions to make vehicle move forward.
