Abstract: A light guide element and a lighting fixture are described. The light guide element includes a light guide body, first microstructures and second microstructures. The light guide body includes a first light-emitting surface and a second light-emitting surface opposite to and parallel to each other. The first microstructures are disposed on the first light-emitting surface in rows. The second microstructures are respectively corresponding to the first microstructures and are disposed on the second light-emitting surface. In each of the rows, each of the first microstructures laps over the corresponding second microstructure in part in a normal direction of the first light-emitting surface. Overlapping ratio of the first microstructures and the corresponding second microstructures become greater from one end of one of the rows to the other end of the one of the rows.

Abstract: A direct back-lit light guide structure is applied to a light guide plate and a back-lit module. The light guide plate has a light-ejection surface and a light-inject surface opposite to the light-ejection surface. The back-lit module comprises at least one point-light source located on the light-ejection surface. The direct back-lit light guide structure comprises at least one asymmetric concave structure formed on the light-ejection surface, and each the point-light source is corresponding to one asymmetric concave structure in such a manner that the point-light source projects light directly toward the asymmetric concave structure. Each the asymmetric concave structure has a central lowest point. The point-light source is located right below the central lowest point. The direct back-lit light guide structure has advantages of better optical uniformity, higher illumination efficiency, fewer point-light sources required, lower cost, narrower side-frame and thinner light guide plate.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for an externally actuatable pulling tool assembly. An example system may include a drum enclosing an externally actuatable input drive shaft, an output driven shaft, and a torque-limiting device positioned in-between the externally actuatable input drive shaft and the output driven shaft. The output driven shaft may be coupled to a transmission with a ring gear, the ring gear meshing with a plurality of teeth on an output end of the drum.

Abstract: A light-directing device adapted for directing light emitted by a light source. The light-directing device includes a light-guiding plate and a directing unit that is disposed adjacent to the light-guiding plate such that a portion of the light emitted by the light source into the light-guiding plate is internally reflected by a first inclined surface thereof to exit the light-guiding plate toward an illuminating region, and another portion of the light emitted by the light source passes through the light-guiding plate, enters the directing unit and is internally reflected by a second inclined surface thereof to exit the directing unit toward the illuminating region.

The two transparent sheets are separated by an air gap, such that at least one light beam emitted from the first light-emitting surface is reflected back to the light guide plate and is emitted out from the second light-emitting surface.
