  • Publication number: 20160341219
    Abstract: A single-phase motor, an airflow generating apparatus, and an electric apparatus are provided. The motor includes a stator and a rotor. The stator includes a stator core and stator windings. The stator core includes a ring-shaped yoke and multiple pole portions. A magnetic bridge or slot opening is formed between each two adjacent pole portions. An end surface of each pole portion includes an arc surface. A positioning groove is formed in each arc surface. The arc surfaces of the pole portions cooperatively form a receiving cavity. The rotor includes a rotary shaft and a permanent magnet fixed to the rotary shaft. The permanent magnet is received in the receiving cavity. The arc surfaces are located on a cylindrical surface centered around a rotation axis of the rotary shaft. The cogging torque of the motor can be reduced, thus reducing the startup current and hence the noise of the motor.

  • Publication number: 20150378837
    Abstract: Improved methods, systems and apparatus for storing and repairing multimedia files are provided that overcome the limitations of existing multimedia file repair technologies. Backup copies of the multimedia container information associated with given multimedia content data are stored, along with the multimedia content data, on an external storage detachably coupled to a recording device. A primary copy of the multimedia container information is stored on an internal storage associated with the recording device. The recording of the primary container information and the content data is performed in real-time or nearly real-time as the content data is captured by the recording device. In the case of an abnormal event (e.g., battery failure, disconnect of storage media), container information may be selected from the primary copy or the backup copies of the container information, thereby increasing the likelihood that the container file can be successfully repaired or regenerated.

  • Patent number: 9207371
    Abstract: A solar concentrator is composed of the cascading of the first light guiding module and a second light guiding module. The solar light is collected and guided simultaneously toward the light propagation destination by the light guiding modules. By cascading the light guiding modules in the direction of guiding, the solar concentrator has thinner thickness than the traditional concentrator and has a zero back focal distance to reduce the assembly cost. The solar concentrator utilizes the optical design concept of coincident image points from both the relay and converging optics such that the optical flux is increased in the cascading light guiding modules while the light propagation direction within the concentrator is maintained.
