  • Publication number: 20240247526
    Abstract: The instant disclosure provides a gate device and an umbrella sharing system which utilizes the gate device. The gate device includes a base, an actuator, a pair of gate plates, and an identification sensor. The actuator is disposed on a top surface of the base and includes a latch extending downward through the base. The pair of gate plates are disposed on a bottom surface of the base, and each of the gate plates includes a guiding structure and a locking structure. A waiting zone for receiving an umbrella is defined between the two guiding structures. The latch of the actuator is driven to engage with the locking structures to limit the movement of the gate plates. The identification sensor is above the waiting zone and disposed on the base and is configured to identify the identity of an umbrella which enters the waiting zone.

  • Patent number: 9575656
    Abstract: A method, an electronic device, and a computer program product for displaying a virtual button are provided in the invention. The method includes the following steps. First, the virtual button is activated. Each interactive object displayed on a display frame of a touch screen is detected to obtain an object region occupied by each of the interactive objects, and an initial position of the virtual button on the display frame is obtained. Next, whether the initial position of the virtual button is located within the object region determined. If yes, the virtual button would be displayed at the initial position. If no, whether a non-object region satisfies a first predetermined condition is determined so as to accordingly display the virtual button at the initial position, a first designated position lies within the non-object region, or a second designated position lies within both of the object region and the non-object region.

  • Patent number: 9564571
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a main body and a thermoelectric conversion module. The main body has a heat generating element therein. The thermoelectric conversion module includes a shell and a thermoelectric conversion element. The shell is assembled to the main body. The thermoelectric conversion element is pivoted on the shell and has an operation surface and a back surface opposite to each other. The thermoelectric conversion element is adapted to rotate between a first state and a second state relatively to the shell. When the thermoelectric conversion element is in the first state, the operation surface faces the main body and receives heat from the heat generating element, for the thermoelectric conversion element to generate electricity. When the thermoelectric conversion element is in the second state, the back surface faces the main body and the operation surface receives heat from external environment, for the thermoelectric conversion element to generate electricity.
