  • Publication number: 20080107279
    Abstract: The invention provides a sound-processing device with automatic howl cancellation. The sound-processing device includes an array microphone, a digital signal processor, a power amplifier, and a loudspeaker. The array microphone includes a plurality of microphones, receiving a sound wave at different locations and converting the sound wave to a plurality of audio signals, wherein the audio signals carry howl induced by a sound wave feedback. The digital signal processor includes a beam forming module and an acoustic echo cancellation module. The beam forming module derives a beam signal from the audio signals to suppress out-of-beam howl, and the acoustic echo cancellation module estimates and eliminates howl carried by the beam signal. The power amplifier then amplifies the beam signal subsequent to eliminating howl. Finally, the loudspeaker converts the amplified beam signal to an amplified sound wave.

  • Patent number: 6253884
    Abstract: A rear brake device for a beach buggy includes an axle sleeve, a brake disc fixed at one side of the axle sleeve and having two semicircular brake members, and a brake drum with a center serrated tube to engage and rotate synchronously with the axle. The brake disc and the brake drum are made of aluminum of high strength, and the axle sleeve is fixed at the other side of the brake disc, and the brake drum covers an outer side of the brake members. The axle fits in a cylindrical fix tube to force the brake drum firmly touch the brake disc without falling off and sealing the serrated connect tube, too. A dirt rubber ring is fitted around the joining location of the brake drum and the brake disc. Then the brake disc does not disfigure, and the brake drum can increase its size and functions as a cover so as to increase the friction coefficient to enhance braking effect.
