  • Publication number: 20160212796
    Abstract: A system for projecting a displayed image of an electronic device through networking, applied to a conference room having at least one Wi-Fi AP, includes at least one electronic device, at least one USB flash drive and a receiving module. The electronic device further has a screen, a wireless network module and an identity. The USB flash drive is to store a pairing information and a network projection software. The receiving module further has an IP address. When the USB flash drive is connected with the electronic device, the electronic device captures the pairing information and uses the wireless network module to couple the at least one Wi-Fi AP, the electronic device further uses the pairing information to login the IP address of the receiving module, and then the electronic device uses the network projection software to output the displayed image to the receiving module.

  • Patent number: 9012931
    Abstract: A circuit substrate includes a substrate, a first lead line, a second lead line, an insulating layer and a pad. The substrate has a pad region, a first non-pad region and a second non-pad region. The first lead line extends from the first non-pad region to the pad region. The second lead line extends from the second non-pad region to the pad region. The insulating layer is interposed between the first and second lead lines. The pads are on the pad region of the substrate and one of the pads is electrically connected to the first and second lead lines. A display panel including the circuit substrate is also provided.

  • Publication number: 20100005841
    Abstract: An auto steering wheel safety lock includes an elongate rod, a lock core and a telescopic rod. The elongate rod has a through hole. The lock core installed in a vertical portion of an L-shaped core sleeve has a key hole. The vertical portion of the sleeve possesses a locking bar extended outward from its right side to form a wide locking groove to fit with diverse steering wheels. The core sleeve further has a horizontal portion combined with the elongate rod in a line and having a through hole communicating with the through hole of the elongate rod. The telescopic rod is movably extended in the through holes of the both, formed with plural ACME threads for engaging with the lock core to keep the telescopic rod positioned immovable in place, and having a hook located at its rear end. The hook and the vertical portion of the core sleeve are positioned at the underside of the lock.
