  • Patent number: 8584809
    Abstract: In a safety device for an elevator, on one car door among a pair of car doors, a light-emitting/light-receiving unit is disposed facing downward at an upper end position of a vertical line separated by a predetermined distance from an end face in a closing direction, which is to abut the other car door, toward the side of the other car door, and a first reflecting member is disposed facing upward at a lower end position of the vertical line. A housing space that houses the light-emitting/light-receiving unit in a state where both car doors are closed is formed on the other car door, and a second reflecting member is disposed facing upward at a bottom portion of the housing space and extends from the same position as an end face in a closing direction of the other car door toward the back of the housing space.

  • Publication number: 20130286557
    Abstract: The invention relates to the field of LCDs, and more particularly to a frame for an LCD device and an LCD device including the frame. The frame includes four edge frames; at least one pair of mutually parallel edge frames of the four edge frames are separately provided with a ripple structure. The ripple structure of the invention is similar to a telescopic ripple part of a drinking straw. The dimensions of one pair of edge frames provided with the ripple structure in the length direction can be adjusted. When the dimensions of two or more kinds of frames are different but similar, a same frame can be shared to achieve the effect of one object with multiple purposes, thereby reducing the number and development cost of special moulds, shortening the development cycle of the product, and avoiding the problem that a great deal of stagnant materials are inconveniently handled when developing single device. Thus, the aim of reducing cost is achieved.

  • Publication number: 20130286320
    Abstract: The invention provides a middle frame for an LCD module and an LCD device. The middle frame for an LCD module includes a plurality of segmented members constituting the middle frame, and further includes a corner member which is arranged on a corner of the middle frame. The corner member is provided with a light blocking wall which is used for blocking a gap in a connecting position between the corner member and the segmented member. In the invention, because the LCD module is divided into a plurality of segmented members, the middle frame can be obtained by only making the same section, and cutting the section to form the segmented members. Thus, the production cost of the middle frame can be saved, and the segmented members of different lengths can be matched to make middle frames of different sizes, thereby saving the cost of moulds.

  • Publication number: 20130256245
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a plastic frame, a frame unit and a fastener thereof. The frame unit is strip-shaped and has at least one end having an assembling portion. The fastener is used to fix two of the connected assembling portions, and the assembling portions of the frame units are connected and fixed by engaging two surfaces thereof with two surfaces of the fastener. The present invention achieves modularization of plastic frame by providing the frame units and fasteners and assembling them into the plastic frame, which not only saves cost of molding equipment, but also ensures a certain level of fixing strength and flatness.

  • Publication number: 20130242608
    Abstract: The present invention provides an assembled mold frame and a backlight module including the mold frame. The assembled mold frame includes two opposite first side frames, two opposite second side frames, and four L-shaped connection frames connecting between the first side frames and the second side frames. The first and second side frames are of a linear form. Each first side frame includes a single first side frame unit or a plurality of interconnected first side frame units. Each second side frame includes a single second side frame unit or a plurality of interconnected second side frame units. Each connection frame has two ends that are respectively mating and jointed to one of the first side frame units and one of the second side frame units. The four connection frames, the two first side frames, and the two second side frames are sequentially jointed to form an enclosed rectangular frame.

  • Publication number: 20120262946
    Abstract: The present invention provides a backlight module and a housing unit structure thereof. The backlight module includes a back plate having a first edge, a second edge, a third edge and a fourth edge. The edges of the back plate are provided with a housing including a plurality of housing unit structures. The housing unit structures have a strip shape or an L-shape, respectively, and are disposed on the back plate by connecting or spacing a distance to each others to assemble into a housing. The backlight module uses an adjustable modular design to adjust the number of the housing unit structures for being suitably applied to various backlight modules with different sizes. Except for reducing the use of material, the development cost and time of the backlight module can be saved.
