  • Patent number: 8849176
    Abstract: An automatic document feeder and a media record equipment using the same are provided. The automatic document feeder includes a frame, a cover and a gear chain. An end of the cover pivoted to the frame has a cam. The gear chain disposed in the frame has multiple driven gears and a rotating unit. The driven gears engaged with each other rotate about a first axial direction. The rotating unit having a first rock arm contacting the cam and a second rock arm with one of the driven gears disposed thereon is capable of rotating about the first axial direction. The cam pushes the first rock arm to drive the rotating unit to rotate about the first axial direction, and then an engagement between the driven gear on the second rock arm is released by departing from another driven gear engaged therewith when the cover opens relative to the frame.

  • Patent number: 8550449
    Abstract: A gear clutch assembly and an electronic device are provided. The gear clutch assembly comprises a pivot, a driving gear engaged with the pivot and adapted to rotate along the pivot, and a driven gear disposed on the driving gear. The driving gear comprises a first surface, a ratchet integrally formed with the driving gear comprising a plurality of teeth disposed on the first surface. The driving gear comprises a second surface facing the first surface, and a pawl integrally formed with the driven gear on the second surface. When the driving gear rotates in a driving direction, one of the teeth is engaged with the pawl and drives the driven gear to rotates with the driving gear. When the driving gear rotates in an opposite direction, every tooth pushes up and slides under the pawl so the driven gear does not rotate along with the driving gear.

  • Publication number: 20130134652
    Abstract: A multi-function peripheral (MFP) suited for printing/scanning a paper or a business card is provided. The MFP includes a body and a printing/scanning unit, a feeding roller, and a plurality of idle rollers disposed in the body. The body has a feeding path that the printing/scanning unit, the feeding roller, and the idle rollers are located thereon. The printing/scanning unit used for printing/scanning the paper or the business card on the feeding path. The idle rollers lean against the feeding roller respectively. A path length between two leaning points of any two adjacent idle rollers contacting the feeding roller is shorter than a size of the business card.

  • Publication number: 20070148130
    Abstract: This disclosure provides a new family of proteins implicated in causing the release of TNF receptors and other cytokine receptors from the surface of cells involved in inflammation. Receptor releasing activity was isolated and purified from a monocyte cell line, and sequenced to deduce the gene and protein structure of several different metalloproteases. The information provided in this disclosure enables the user to prepare recombinant protein or expression vectors that will cause receptor release in vivo, thus preventing signal transduction and blocking the effect of incoming cytokines. Medicaments containing cytokine receptor releasing activity are described for use in treating rheumatoid arthritis and other conditions mediated by inflammatory cytokines. The proteins of this invention are all relatively small single-chain molecules, and are therefore easier to use and more cost-effective than other currently marketed biological anti-inflammatory agents.
