  • Patent number: 9293294
    Abstract: A method for operating a dynamic pattern generator (DPG) has a mirror array, where an operating clock of the DPG is received and converted to a toggling rate dependent on the operating clock. The toggling rate is compared with a threshold. If the toggling rate is greater than the threshold, the method partitions the mirror array into a plurality of groups. In response to the groups, the method determines a delay value based on the operating clock. The method further generates a delayed clock with the delay with respect to the first clock to the groups of the mirror array.

  • Patent number: 8485146
    Abstract: An engine device includes an engine, a power generating portion, a motor portion, and a transmission mechanism. The engine includes a piston and a cylinder, and the piston is arranged in the cylinder and moves back and forth between a top dead center and a bottom dead center. The power generating portion and the motor portion are annularly disposed on the periphery of the cylinder. When the piston moves from the top dead center towards the bottom dead center, the transmission mechanism drives a power generating rotor of the power generating portion to move correspondingly in a direction opposite to that of the piston and enables the power generating portion to generate electric power. When the piston is located at the bottom dead center, the motor portion actuates a motor rotor to move, and pushes the piston to move towards the top dead center through the transmission mechanism.

    Abstract: An electric-control belt-type continuous variable-speed transmission mechanism includes a driving-shaft, a driven-shaft, a driving-wheel, a driven-wheel, a transmission belt, a force-exerting device, an electric-control motor speed-adjusting device and an idle wheel. The electric-control motor speed-adjusting device operates along with the driving-wheel and the driven-wheel to dynamically control and adjust the overall configuration position of the transmission belt to thereby achieve effects of variable speeds, separation and restoration of dynamics. The idle wheel is rotatably disposed on the driving-shaft or the driven-shaft to axially support the transmission belt during the state of separate dynamics to prevent friction therebetween.

  • Publication number: 20120100944
    Abstract: An electrical control belt continuously variable transmission system controls a movable driving half-pulley or movable driven half-pulley initiatively, by changing a driving interval between the movable driving half-pulley and a fixed driving half-pulley or a driven interval between the movable driven half-pulley and a fixed driven half-pulley, respectively, depending on different statuses, in order to adjust a velocity ratio. By manipulating the movable driving half-pulley or the movable driven half-pulley, the system may further form a driving gap between the movable driving half-pulley and a transmission belt or a driven gap between the movable driven half-pulley and the transmission belt, such that the power is cut off. Clamping the movable driving half-pulley or the movable driven half-pulley to the transmission belt may restore the outputting of the power.
