Abstract: A linear vibration device is disclosed. The linear vibration device includes a housing, a plurality of elastic members received in the housing, each of the elastic member has a fastening portion connecting to the housing, an elastic arm extending from the fastening portion, and a mounting portion extending from the elastic arm, a moving unit suspended in the housing by the elastic members, a coil located below the moving unit, a supporting portion coupling to the elastic member, the supporting portion has a supporting plate covering at least a part of a top surface of the moving unit and a supporting arm extending downwardly from the supporting plate for pushing the mounting portion toward the positioning portion of the moving unit, the mounting portion has a fender defining a top part above the top surface of the moving unit for restricting the position of the supporting plate.

Abstract: A telescopic universal joint includes a first joint and a second joint. A sleeve is connected to the second joint. A sliding member includes one end connected to the first joint, and is slidably received in the sleeve. A resilient ring is snugly arranged around the sliding member, and stays in a tight contact with an inner surface of the sleeve, thereby creating a friction between the resilient ring and the inner surface and allowing the sliding member to be positioned at a desired position by the friction.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to methods for improving glycemic control in humans and animals comprising the step of administering a composition comprising an amino acid content including 4-hydroxyisoleucine in an amount between about 60% and about 70% of a total weight of the amino acid content, together with one or more amino acids selected from the group consisting of glutamate, aspartate, arginine, cysteine, threonine, serine, glycine, alanine, valine, methionine, isoleucine, and histidine (inclusive of any chemical salts, anhydrides, or isomers of any of the foregoing), in addition to, alkaloids, glycosides, volatile oils, saponins, sapogenins, mannans, flavonoids, fatty acids, vitamins and provitamins, minerals, and carbohydrates.

Abstract: A composition of bio-active compounds and methods for facilitating and supporting the metabolism and transport of glucose and carbohydrates into muscle cells. Preferably, the composition of bio-active compounds include 4-hydroxyisoleucine and one or more amino acids selected from the group consisting of arginine, aspartate, threonine, serine, glutamate, proline, glycine, alanine, cysteine, valine, methionine, isoleucine, leucine, tryptophan, phenylalanine, ornithine, lysine, histidine and gamma-amino butyrate. In one presently preferred embodiment of the present invention, the bio-active compounds are extracted from fenugreek seeds.

Abstract: A liquid cooling system includes a cooling unit (100) and a coolant driving unit (200). The cooling unit includes a first cooling body (110) defining a first cavity, a second cooling body (130) defining a second cavity in communication with first cooling body (110), and a heat sink (150) sandwiched between the first and second cooling bodies. The coolant driving unit is in flow communication with the first and second cooling bodies respectively so that the first and second cooling bodies, and the coolant driving unit together form a loop. Circulation of the coolant in the loop causes the heat generated by the heat generating component to be capable of being transferred from the first and second cooling bodies to the heat sink for dissipation.

Abstract: A liquid cooling system includes a cooling body (1) defining an hollow portion receiving a pump (3) and a number of cooling fins (18) therein, and a contact portion for contacting an electrical component. The cooling body defines a passageway therein filled with liquid coolant, and an inlet (124) and an outlet (125) both in communication with the passageway. The pump defines an exit (31) and an entrance (32) connected to the inlet and the outlet of the cooling body respectively by two tubes (5). Heat is transferred from the electrical component to the contact portion, and then conducted to the coolant, and conducted to other portions of the cooling body as the coolant flows through the passageway. The heat is then conducted to the cooling fins for dissipation.
