  • Publication number: 20090121567
    Abstract: The present invention provides an airflow generator, which includes a plate with a rotary portion and a swinging end. The airflow generator also includes a magnetic brake unit coupled with the rotary portion. The magnetic brake unit has a second magnetizing portion, such that the rotary portion can be coupled with the movable second magnetizing portion. The magnetizing action of the magnetic brake unit enables the second magnetizing portion and the rotary portion to generate reciprocating rotation, thus driving the swinging end to generate oscillating traverse motion. The airflow generator has desirable heat-radiating efficiency, so it will be widely applied to the heat-radiating structure of various lightweight electronic devices and simplified to further cut down the manufacturing costs.

  • Publication number: 20090072637
    Abstract: The airflow generator includes a plate having a pivot and a swinging end. The invention also includes a first magnetic induced portion assembled nearby the pivot opposite to a second magnetic induced portion. With magnetic induced change, the first and second magnetic induced portions generate magnetic attraction or repulsion to drive the swinging end. The innovative airflow generator of the present invention can be applied to a compact structure and yield a satisfactory heat radiation effect and widely applied to the heat-radiating structure of various small-sized electronic devices.

  • Publication number: 20090026957
    Abstract: The present invention provides an LED lighting module with a heat-sinking failsafe device, including LED light sets, a power supply unit and a radiator fan. The radiator fan is linked to a main circuit via a series circuit or a parallel circuit. An electric circuit is placed between the main circuit and radiator fan. A current controller is assembled between the electric circuit and main circuit. When the radiator fan is operated abnormally, the power supply of main circuit could be reduced or interrupted through said electric circuit and current controller. The LED light set is turned into a weak-current state or switched off, thus efficiently preventing overheating or explosion of the LED light set and improving the safety and quality of the LED lighting module.

  • Publication number: 20080303444
    Abstract: The present invention provides an LED lighting module with radiating and automatic power-off functions. The module includes a power supply element, an LED element and radiating member as well as a circuit linking them. The circuit linking the power supply element, LED element and radiating member is a serial loop, so that the power supply element, LED element and radiating member are combined into a single loop circuit. The LED elements will be automatically turned off if the radiating member is burnt to prevent the overheating problem of LED elements and to prolong the service life with improved applicability.

  • Publication number: 20080286133
    Abstract: The present invention provides an airflow generator, including a plate, a magnetic brake and a housing. The plate has a pivot point and a swinging end. Two magnetic poles are assembled at predefined locations on the plate nearby the pivot point. The magnetic coil is located opposite to magnetic poles of the plate, then a controller is used to control the magnetization state of the magnetic coil, thus yielding suction and repulsion with magnetic pole and driving the swinging end of the plate. The volume of the generator of the present invention is minimized, but an efficient heat-radiating effect is achieved to resolve the bottleneck of a typical radiator fan, making it applicable to the heat-radiating structure of various small-sized electronic devices.

  • Publication number: 20080178589
    Abstract: The present invention provides a heat-pipe generator. The blade is assembled into the heat pipe, a magnetic rotor is arranged around the blade, and generating coils are assembled externally onto the heat pipe opposite to the magnetic rotor. When the working liquid within the heat pipe is evaporated into vapor to drive the blade and the magnetic rotor, the generating coil outside of the heat pipe will yield inductive power, thus maintaining a vacuum state in the heat pipe for heat conduction. The magnetic rotor and generating coils may generate power accordingly.

  • Patent number: 4977397
    Abstract: A touch-control mouse provides rapid and accurate control of the positioning of a cursor on a computer display screen, and includes a laminated touch-control film assembly, an aluminum supporting board, a press button switch set, a signal processing circuit board, and a dust-protective hanging case. Drawing using a finger on x-axis and y-axis resistance planes of the laminated touch-control film assembly results in variable potential value for x, y coordinates. The value of potential variation is calculated through a single-chip microprocessor to indicate relative direction, speed and amount of displacement on x, y coordinates. The signal of the relative direction, speed and amount of displacement is further is further sent by the single-chip microprocessor through a standard RS-232 connector to one of the serial communications ports of a PC to rapidly and accurately control the positioning of the cursor on the computer display screen.
