  • Patent number: 10448532
    Abstract: A quick-releasing mechanism is applied to an electronic apparatus. The quick-releasing mechanism includes a central axle, an ejecting component, and a locking component. The ejecting component is slidably disposed on the central axle, and has a supporting portion configured to support a bracket, and a first inclined guiding structure disposed under the supporting portion. The locking component includes a base, a second inclined guiding structure, a pressing portion, and a pushing portion. The base is rotatably disposed on the central axle. The second inclined guiding structure is disposed on the base and slidably abuts against the first inclined guiding structure to lift and lower-down the supporting portion. The pressing portion is disposed on the base to clip the bracket with the supporting portion. The pushing portion is disposed by the base and is pushed for rotation of the base.

  • Patent number: 10172254
    Abstract: A handle locking device and an electronic system of the invention use the rotation of a handle for push movement against a case so as to move an activation bracket to have displacement relative to a swinging bracket. Pushed by the activation bracket, the swinging bracket produces a lateral swing at one end accordingly so that a hook at the end of the swinging bracket laterally moves between a locking position and an unlocking position. Further rotation of the handle will further push against the shelf where the electronic system is mounted and bring the electronic system to move relative to the shelf and eject. A single rotational stroke of the handle is transformed into consecutive unlocking movement and ejection movement. Insertion, locking, unlocking, and ejection of the electronic system on the shelf are easily done by manual operation of the handle without the need of additional tools.

  • Patent number: 10172251
    Abstract: A fastening structure including a base pillar, a pair of elastic arms, and a top pillar is provided. The base pillar is assembled to an object, the elastic arms are connected between the top and the base pillars, and a gap is provided between the elastic arms. The top pillar is adapted to stretch or compress the elastic arms when an external force is exerted to reduce or expand the gap. The top pillar and the elastic arms pass through a through hole of a connector when the elastic arms are stretched to reduce the gap to make the connector contact the base pillar. After the force is removed, the gap between the elastic arms is restored to fasten the fastening structure between the elastic arms and the base pillar in a floating state. An electronic assembly and an operating method of the fastening structure are also provided.

  • Patent number: 9296979
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a flower essential oil extraction method. The flower essential oil extraction method includes (a) placing flowers in a high-pressure treatment tank; (b) introducing pressurized liquid medium into the high-pressure-treatment tank so as to reach a predetermined pressure, wherein the pressure is maintained for a predetermined period of time at a predetermined temperature, then the pressure is reduced to atmospheric pressure; and (c) placing the flowers subjected to high-pressure treatment in an extraction tank, wherein flowers are extracted with a low-polarity solvent to obtain an extract. By using the flower essential oil extraction method of the present disclosure, the flowers do not need to be subjected to a dehydration process, thus the energy cost is reduced, and more ingredients can be retained.

  • Patent number: 9125323
    Abstract: A rear end of a main body of a rack body with an airflow blocking mechanism is pivotally coupled to a blocking sheet, and the blocking sheet is adjusted to be levelly or erectly disposed conveniently; the position change of the blocking sheet is relied on to control air to flow into a rack body or not to allow the rack body installed with no electronic device in the same computer housing to have an airflow blocking function to avoid decreasing air amount flowing through other rack bodies installed with an electronic device so as to elevate the electronic device cooling efficiency.

  • Patent number: 8189346
    Abstract: In an assembly of an electronic device having one side provided with at least one securing hole, and a securing device including a body, an abutting and retaining member, and a guiding unit, the body includes a base for placement of the electronic device thereon, and a lateral plate extending upwardly from one side of the base and having an inner side formed with at least one protrusion for engaging the securing hole. The abutting and retaining member is movably and slidably disposed on the base opposite to the lateral plate. The guiding unit is connected to the abutting and retaining member and the base for guiding displacement of the abutting and retaining member so that the latter is rotatable relative to the base to abut against the other side of the electronic device when being displaced from a release position to a securing position.

  • Patent number: 8111509
    Abstract: Disconnected slits are disposed between one end of at least one of the first and the second side plates coupled to a retaining pin and a bottom plate of a rack body with an engaging mechanism to form a free end thereby allowing an operation of an insertion of the retaining pin into or a separation thereof from the screw hole to be more convenient by offsetting the free end outward to lengthen a distance between the two opposite retaining pins.
