  • Patent number: 10491213
    Abstract: A self-capacitive touch sensing circuit including an operational amplifier, an internal capacitor, a first switch and a second switch is disclosed. A first input terminal and a second input terminal of operational amplifier are coupled to a capacitor and ground respectively and an output terminal of operational amplifier outputs an output voltage. The internal capacitor is coupled between the output terminal and first input terminal of operational amplifier. One terminal of first switch is coupled to a first external charging voltage and another terminal of first switch is coupled between the capacitor and the first input terminal. The first external charging voltage is higher than the second external charging voltage. The first switch and second switch are switched according to a specific order, so that the first external charging voltage or second external charging voltage will charge the capacitor.

  • Patent number: 10379674
    Abstract: A mutual-capacitive touch sensing circuit includes an operational amplifier, an internal capacitor, a first switch˜a third switch. A first input terminal and a second input terminal of operational amplifier are coupled to a capacitor and ground respectively and an output terminal of operational amplifier outputs an output voltage. The internal capacitor is coupled to output terminal and first input terminal. The first switch is coupled to a first external charging voltage, capacitor and first input terminal. The second switch is coupled to a second external charging voltage and the capacitor. The third switch is coupled to a third external charging voltage, the second switch and capacitor.

  • Patent number: 9004764
    Abstract: A linear guide assembly has a bar device, multiple partitions, multiple containing spaces and multiple rolling balls. The partitions are mounted between two bars of the bar device at intervals to form the containing spaces. The rolling balls are respectively and rotatably mounted in the containing spaces. Each partition has multiple first protrusions and multiple second protrusions. Each rolling ball is in point-contact with the first protrusions and the second protrusions of adjacent two of the partitions. With the point-contact configuration, an outer surface of each rolling ball is lubricated by much oil.

  • Patent number: 7802921
    Abstract: A linear motion apparatus has a linear track, a slider and two sliding-assistant units for a linear motion apparatus. The sliding-assistant units for a linear motion apparatus is mounted between the track and the slider to enhance ease of movement between the track and the slider, and each sliding-assistant unit has two roller rings to receive rollers. The roller rings are elongated rectangular rings, are selectively mounted oppositely crossly around each other. Each roller ring is designed with reduced components to make manufacturing and assembling the sliding-assistant unit easier. Moreover, the roller ring is designed as one unity so no seam will be formed due to assembling two different pieces, such that ensures contact between the rollers and the roller ring smooth.

  • Publication number: 20090214144
    Abstract: A rolling element chain is applied to retain and arrange multiple rollers at intervals in a line and has a belt assembly and multiple clamping assemblies. The rollers are cylinders mounted parallelly in the rolling element chain. The belt assembly is resilient and has two parallel bars. The clamping assemblies are formed in pairs between the parallel bars to form multiple roller holes on the belt assembly and each clamping assembly has multiple clamping protrusions. The clamping protrusions of each clamping assembly are formed in a line between the parallel bars and alternately protrude oppositely away from the belt assembly and together hold the roller in the belt assembly. Each clamping protrusion has a roller surface and at least one rib. Each rib is formed on and protrudes from the roller surface, thereby, reduces contact area between the clamping protrusions and the rollers.
