  • Patent number: 9080743
    Abstract: This invention is suitable for optical technology field. A lens, LED back light module and display device are provided. The lens receives light emitted by the light source through a light incident surface, the light emitted by the light source enters in the lens, a part of the light is refracted from one light exiting surface, a part of the light is reflected from one light exiting surface to another light exiting surface or bottom surface, then is reflected from the another light exiting surface or bottom surface to further another light exiting surface and finally is refracted from the further another light exiting surface, therefore the light emitted by the light source is separated in the lens, and then each light is refracted from different light exiting surface of the lens thereby increasing the light exiting area and the uniformity. The lens of the present invention is suitable for the LED back light modules and display devices.

  • Patent number: 8395661
    Abstract: Various pipe inspection systems include a camera head operatively connected to the distal end of a push-cable. Images may be automatically captured at predetermined distances of travel, or may be automatically captured based on the output signals from the auto-focus, auto-exposure and/or auto-white balance engines indicating, for example, that the camera motion within the pipe is substantially zero. Images may be captured in an automatic mode at predetermined intervals as the camera head travels within the pipe or in an override mode initiated by operator command. The system may include a data transmission circuit that transmits data between a plurality of nodes at a frequency that does not substantially interfere with a normal base band video transmission frequency.

  • Publication number: 20120187049
    Abstract: Multi-valent metals, such as iron, may be removed from crude oil by introducing at least one metal removal chemical to the crude oil before, during or after the crude oil is charged to a settling tank. After mixing the metal removal chemical with the crude oil, the crude oil is kept still or held quiescent for an effective period of time to allow the metal species to settle to the bottom of the tank. Oil having reduced metal content may be removed from the top of the tank and/or metal-rich oil may be drained from the bottom of the tank or both. The crude oil having reduced metal content will cause fewer problems downstream in the refinery.

  • Publication number: 20120096357
    Abstract: A method and system for media selection and sharing is disclosed. According to one embodiment, media content is received from a media source and is stored in a buffer for a first time period. A second time period within the first time period is determined for creating a media clip from the media content stored in the buffer. A media clip is generated as determined by the second time period. A user provides an input, and the user's input is associated with the media clip to take one or more effects on the media clip. The media clip enhanced with the one more effects is transmitted over a network to share with other users.

  • Publication number: 20110291548
    Abstract: A lamp cover containing phosphor for providing white light emission is disclosed. The lamp cover is comprised of a light-partial-reflective cap structure providing the outer surface of the lamp cover, wherein the light-partial-reflective cap structure is composed of a plurality of light transparent layers and a plurality of vacuum layers that are alternatively stacked from outside to inside, a supporting transparent cap structure providing the inner surface of the lamp cover, and a phosphor mixed structure mechanically supported by the outer surface of the supporting transparent cap structure, wherein the outer surface of the phosphor mixed structure is adjacent to the most inner vacuum layer of the light-partial-reflective cap structure. Once the lamp cover is combined with a phosphor exciting light source, the light-partial-reflective cap structure partially prevents phosphor exciting light from escaping from the lamp cover by using Fresnel reflection.

  • Patent number: 7297376
    Abstract: A method for depositing a low dielectric constant film is provided by positioning a substrate within a processing chamber having a powered electrode, and flowing into the processing chamber an initiation gas mixture of a flow rate of one or more organosilicon compounds and a flow rate of one or more oxidizing gases to deposit an initiation layer by applying an RF power to the electrode. The organosilicon compound flow rate is then ramped-up to a final flow rate to deposit a first transition layer, upon which one or more porogen compounds is introduced and the flow rate porogen compound is ramped up to a final deposition rate while depositing a second transition layer. A porogen doped silicon oxide layer is then deposited by flowing the final porogen and organosilicon flow rates until the RF power is turned off.

  • Publication number: 20070266223
    Abstract: With the development of microelectronic industry, we can integrate more and more transistors in a single chip. According to Moore's law, the number of transistors can double in 18 months. Therefore, our target is how to convert the number of transistors to the performance of microprocessors as well as DSPs. In fact, three common available architectures namely superscalar, VLIW, and chip-multiprocessor do not fulfill this requirement well. Hence, in this paper, we propose a totally new architecture which is absolutely scalable. That means the design task is very easy (we design only one processing element), we exploit the whole potential of the number of transistors (we replicate the processing element as many as possible), and the performance of the chip is extremely high (hundreds or thousands processing elements can run simultaneously).
