  • Patent number: 6786298
    Abstract: A vibration-absorbing structure for support section of a self-vibratory electronic member. The vibration-absorbing structure is integrally made of resilient gum material and has a top face, a bottom face, at least one insertion section between the top and bottom faces and at least one horseshoe-shaped or annular spacer (bellows) structure having multiple continuously winding layers and connected between the insertion section and the top and bottom faces. The top and bottom faces are fixed on a support article and the support section of the electronic member is fitted in the insertion section. Each annular spacer structure defines a resiliently extensible interval to enlarge the vibration-absorbing space and create a vibration-absorbing effect as a reciprocally extensible spring.

  • Patent number: 6712321
    Abstract: In an adjustable supporting device, a tubular coupling member is disposed uprightly on a supporting base. A movable frame member is movably extended into the coupling member, is in friction engagement with the coupling member, and includes a frame body coupled to a display panel and formed with a passage groove communicated with a receiving space. A biasing member has a straight coupling portion passing through the passage groove and coupled to the coupling member, and a spiral portion having an axis, connected to the coupling portion, and disposed in the receiving space. The movable frame member further includes an axial rod extending through the spiral portion along the axis and engaging the frame body such that the spiral portion of the biasing member is positioned in the receiving space.

  • Patent number: 6050849
    Abstract: A stand includes a housing with an upper portion to be mounted on a liquid crystal display (LCD) panel, and a lower portion to be secured on a base. A display power connector is mounted on the housing and connects electrically the LCD panel to a power source. A display signal connector is mounted on the housing and connects electrically the LCD panel to a computer. A first hub power connector is mounted on the housing and provides a voltage output. A universal serial bus (USB) hub module includes a hub casing, a USB connector set mounted on the hub casing, a second hub power connector mounted on the hub casing, and a USB hub controller mounted inside the hub casing and connected electrically to the connector set and the second hub power connector. The hub module is mounted detachably on the housing such that the second hub power connector engages removably the first hub power connector for supplying the voltage output from the first hub power connector as operating power to the hub controller.
