  • Patent number: 11558978
    Abstract: A fan system is used for dissipating heat of an electronic device. The fan system includes a fan, a hollow structure, and a control circuit. Sound waves made by the fan are transmitted to an interior of the hollow structure when the fan is operating. The control circuit is connected to the hollow structure and is configured to control deformation/deformations of the hollow structure according to a state/states of the fan and/or the electronic device, which change a volume of the interior of the hollow structure for making a resonance frequency of the hollow structure being approximate to a rotation speed of the fan or being the same as the rotation speed of the fan.

  • Publication number: 20050285331
    Abstract: A sheet cartridge, e.g. a bill cartridge, is designed for storing sheets in an automatic machine. The sheet cartridge has a housing and separators for defining a temporary space and a storage space. The housing has one or more patterned openings corresponding to pushing blocks of the automatic machine outside the sheet cartridge. The pushing blocks pushes sheets in the temporary space across the separators into the storage space via the corresponding openings so that the sheets are safe when the sheet cartridge is removed from the automatic machine.
