  • Patent number: 8044592
    Abstract: A heat dissipating structure for a lamp includes at least an illuminating element, a lamp base, a metal housing, a ring-shaped coil and a metal base. The metal housing has a great heat conducting capability, and the illuminating element is mounted on the lamp base, which is engaged with the metal housing. The ring-shaped coil which includes a primary winding and a secondary winding wound on a ring iron core is mounted between the metal housing and lamp base, wherein the ring iron core further includes an inner space for accommodating plural electronic components connected with the secondary winding, and the ring-shaped coil is electrically connected with the illuminating element and metal base. And, the metal base is electrically connected to a power source, so that through a conduction of the metal base, the ring-shaped coil can acquire and transform electricity to provide to the illuminating element for operation.

  • Publication number: 20090290353
    Abstract: The present invention is related to a heat dissipating structure for a lamp including at least an illuminating element, a lamp base, a metal housing, a ring-shaped coil and a metal base, wherein through the great heat conductivity of the metal housing, the heat can be averagely distributed over the surface thereof for emitting outwardly so as to reduce the lamp temperature during operation and extend the life time of lamp.

  • Patent number: 5670850
    Abstract: A circuit (10) and method for reducing a tilt of a video picture on a color monitor includes a circuit (30) for providing an output signal for controlling the vertical position of the scanning beam that includes an MOS transistor (60) having substantially zero current flow in its gate element, and connected to control the magnitude of the output drive signal. In a preferred embodiment, a LinBiCMOS semiconductor manufacturing process is employed to fabricate a plurality of bipolar transistors connected to provide a control voltage on the gate of the MOS transistor (60), which may conveniently be an NMOS device. The bipolar transistors may be connected to form a translinear cell (11) connected to receive a signal (17) related to a horizontal synchronizing signal and to provide a voltage output to the gate of the MOS transistor (60) in response thereto.
