  • Patent number: 6378824
    Abstract: An assembling structure for ceiling fan bracket, including a hollow assembling section downward extends from a motor housing of the ceiling fan. The circumference of the assembling section is formed with multiple sockets in each of which a bracket connected with a vane is inserted. The socket has a shape complementary to the shape of the cross-section of the bracket. A locating member is movably disposed on inner face of the socket. The bracket is formed with an engaging section corresponding to the locating member for engaging with the locating member to fixedly locate the bracket. Accordingly, the bracket assembling and disassembling procedures are facilitated.

  • Patent number: 6371729
    Abstract: An Assembling structure for vane and vane bracket of ceiling fan, including a vane bracket and a vane. The vane bracket has several bosses and at least one projecting post. A resilient press board is pivotally disposed on top face of the projecting post. An end of the press board distal from the projecting post has a downward extending press section. The vane is formed with dents complementary to the bosses of the vane bracket. The vane is further formed with a slot corresponding to the projecting post of the vane bracket. The press board is passed through the slot. The vane is formed with a locating section in which the press section of the press board is located. When connecting the vane bracket with the vane, the press board is rotated to make the press section of the press board resiliently pressed against and located in the locating section of the vane by means of the resilient force of the press board so as to quickly and conveniently fixedly connect the vane bracket with the vane.

  • Patent number: 6364612
    Abstract: A ceiling fan structure including a housing, a motor casing, a fixing disc and multiple vanes. A motor is installed in the housing and enclosed in the motor casing. The motor casing is formed with multiple thread holes on a periphery of bottom face of the motor casing. Multiple vanes are pivotally disposed on bottom side of the fixing disc via vane brackets. The fixing disc is formed with multiple through holes corresponding to the thread holes. A bolt is passed through each through hole for locking the motor casing with the fixing disc and spacing the motor casing from the fixing disc by a certain distance, A spring is fitted on each bolt within the distance for absorbing swinging force exerted onto the vanes during rotation of the ceiling fan.

    Abstract: An assembling structure for ceiling fan bracket, including a hollow assembling section. The circumference of the assembling section is formed with multiple sockets in each of which a bracket is inserted. The socket has a shape complementary to the shape of the cross-section of the bracket. A movable locating member is disposed between the bracket and the socket for fixedly locating the bracket in the socket. An inner end face of the socket is formed with a projecting section as an isosceles triangular column. The bracket is formed with a recessed section corresponding to the projecting section, whereby the bracket is fixedly and accurately located in the socket by a restricted angle without easy loosening.

  • Patent number: 6305974
    Abstract: A Connecting structure for conducting wires of ceiling fan, including a fixing bracket fixed on a ceiling or a wall, a base seat disposed on a motor of the ceiling fan and a connecting rod connected between the base seat and the fixing bracket. A fixing seat and a slide seat are disposed in the connecting rod. By means of pushing a rail passing through the fixing seat, the slide seat is driven to slide within the connecting rod. The slide seat are formed with two wire holes and the fixing seat are formed with through holes corresponding to the wire holes. The conducting wires are passed through the through holes and inserted into the wire holes. A connecting wire is conducted from the wire hole out of a top end of the connecting rod to connect with a wire socket which is connected with a power supply so as to easily electrically connect the conducting wires of the ceiling fan with the power wires.

  • Patent number: 5966767
    Abstract: A pipe cleaning device has a handle, a center rod, a center rod sealing plate, and a scraper assembly. The center rod has a central hollow space having one end connected to the handle and the scraper assembly mounted on the other end. The center rod sealing plate is a three-plate structure for sealing off the pipe opening. The center rod sealing plate has a central hole for the insertion of the center rod. The three-plate structure of the center rod sealing plate serves to increase the ease of disassembling and maintenance. The scraper assembly includes an upper scraper and a lower scraper, wherein the lower scraper has additional scraping knives on its blades to facilitate the scraping of blocking material inside the pipe. Moreover, the scrapers do not block off gas flow inside the pipe completely, so the pump can still pump exhaust gases out even when the scraper assembly is in use.

  • Patent number: 5920260
    Abstract: A purse burglarproof structure installed on a purse. The purse is equipped with a sound emitter and having a strap for a user to carry or hang the purse on the shoulder. The strap is disposed with a male buckle and a female buckle which are locked with each other by a predetermined locking force. The male and female buckles are serially electrically connected to the sound emitter via conductive wires to form a circuit. The male and female buckles are locked with or unlocked from each other so as to control the opening/closing of the circuit. In the case that the strap suffers a pulling force greater than the predetermined locking force, the male and female buckles are separated from each other to power on the sound emitter to emit loud sound for help and protection of a user and the purse.

  • Patent number: 5252794
    Abstract: This invention provides a conductive spindle assembly of a pull switch which has an insulation spindle within which is formed three recesses in a periphery of the insulation spindle. A conductive collar is provided for matingly engaging with the insulation spindle. The conductive collar has a conductive base portion and three vertically extending conductive contact tabs. The first and second of the contact tabs extend vertically from a periphery of the base portion and have a first vertical extension height. The third contact tab extends vertically from the base portion and has a second vertical extension height greater than the vertical extension height of the first and second contact tabs. Each of the three tabs is insertable within the recesses of the insulation spindle in a manner providing for the periphery of the spindle assembly to have a substantially continuous cylindrical surface.
