  • Patent number: 7438444
    Abstract: A light guide lens includes a lens body having a light incidence surface and a light emission surface, a plurality of refraction structures formed on the light incidence surface, and a plurality of reflection structures formed on the light emission surface. The refraction structures send incoming light rays to the light emission surface by refraction. Each of the refraction structures turns incoming light rays coming in all directions into refracted parallel light rays. The refracted parallel light rays arriving from the refraction structures reflect off the corresponding reflection structures and then laterally exit the lens body. The refracted parallel light rays arriving from each of the refraction structures travel to a corresponding one of the reflection structures, such that eventually the incoming light rays exit laterally. The present invention further provides a light emitting diode package structure having the light guide lens.

  • Publication number: 20070047258
    Abstract: A light guide plate is provided. The light guide plate has a transparent substrate having a first optical face and a second optical face, a first micro structure and a second micro structure respectively corresponding to the first optical face and the second optical face. The first micro structure has a tunable composite optical effect with light collection and diffusion functions so as to increase brightness and evenness of exit light. The second micro structure has a design of curved face to destroy total reflection of light, such that bright lines can be effectively prevented from occurrence by avoiding the light outputting from the direction over against the first optical face. A back light unit having the light guide plate is further provided in the present invention.

  • Patent number: 7125141
    Abstract: An apparatus for homogeneously distributing lights includes a light guide plate, an incidence microstructure and an emergence microstructure. The incidence microstructure is arranged on a surface of the light guide plate and opposite to a light source. The emergence microstructure is arranged on a surface of the light guide plate opposite to the incidence microstructure. The lights emitted by the light source pass through said apparatus thereby being homogenously distributed. Thus the manufacture costs are lowered, and the light source utilization ratio is increased.

  • Patent number: 6724532
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a dual-lens hybrid diffractive/refractive imaging system comprising: a first lens including a concave surface and a convex surface; and the second lens including a convex surface and a concave surface. The concave surface of the first lens is an objective surface facing the object. The convex surface faces the convex surface of the second lens, while the concave surface of the second lens faces the charge-coupled device (CCD) through a filter. Any surface of the first lens and the second lens is spheric or aspheric. Moreover, the imaging system comprises at least one diffractive surface, referred to as a hybrid diffractive/refractive surface, formed on any surface of the two lenses. Therefore, aberration is eliminated and image quality is improved without increasing the number of lenses.

  • Patent number: 6123526
    Abstract: A multistage pump includes a shaft assembly and a housing and spacing plates. The shaft assembly completed by forming shafts and rotors integrally. The spacing plates defining a plurality of successive compression chambers, each chamber is delimited by two symmetrical spacing plates, there has a ring groove associated with the spacing plates, and having an elastic component placed. When the elastic component pressed by the housing, it became leakage and the clearance between the rotors and the spacing plates be easily controlled, by this way, the pump using parts are easy to manufacture, can be machined accurately and which enable highly accurate assembly to be achieved. As to the assembling method, which is characterized by mounting the high pressure end axial bearing seat and the high pressured end plate, then to control the clearance between the high pressure end plate of the bearing seat and the rotors. Furthermore, to install the spacing plates and the housing make the compression chamber formed.
