Abstract: An air-floating guide rail device includes a guide rail unit, a slider unit, and a linear motor unit. The guide rail unit includes a guide rail body and two air-floating block sets made of a material different from that of the guide rail body and each including top and side air-floating blocks. The slider unit includes a main sliding seat and two lateral sliding seats connected integrally to the main sliding seat and each having first and second guiding surfaces transverse to each other and disposed respectively adjacent to corresponding top and side air-floating blocks, and first and second air guiding passages connecting the first and second guiding surfaces to the external environment. The linear motor unit includes a stator and a mover mounted fixedly to the main sliding seat and movable relative to the stator for driving linear movement of the slider unit relative to the guide rail unit.

Abstract: A circuit board detection device includes a base, a stage assembly, a first gantry support, and a first probe assembly. The stage assembly is arranged on the base and includes a linear drive module, a rotary motor, and a platform. The platform is configured to carry a circuit board and can be driven by the linear drive module to move along a first axial direction. The platform can also be driven by the rotary motor to rotate relative to a first rotation axis. The first gantry support is fixed on the base and includes a first beam. The first beam extends along a second axial direction perpendicular to the first axial direction to span over the linear drive module, and includes a first probe guide rail. The first probe assembly is arranged on the first probe guide rail to be movable along the second axial direction.

Abstract: The invention is a moisture resistant LED-illuminated vehicle bulb assembly capable of installation into a conventional vehicle incandescent bulb socket. The moisture resistant LED-illuminated vehicle bulb assembly satisfies a long felt need to provided a long life, bright and economic vehicle bulb that can be used as a replacement for incandescent bulb-type lamps or as original equipment in new vehicles. The moisture resistant LED-illuminated vehicle bulb assembly is employable in stop lamps, clearance/marker lamps, as well as combination brake, turn and tail lamps for passenger vehicle lamps and in heavy-duty trucks and trailers.

Abstract: An apparatus for programmably converting the operating voltage of a CPU & chipset by means of the firmware programmably setting the operating voltage, instead of by means of adjusting jumpers, is disclosed. The apparatus includes an address decoder unit, a programmable data memory, a DC to DC converter and a feedback resistance switching circuit. In operation, the computer inputs an address signal and a data signal required for changing the operating voltage to the address decoder unit. After being decoded, the data is written into the programmable data memory. Then the programmable data memory outputs a selection signal to change the internal resistance of the feedback resistance switching circuit, thereby to convert the output voltage of the DC to DC converter.

Abstract: The present invention provides a process for determining the smoke content of an edible oil of a given amount, which comprises heating the edible oil to a temperature necessary to generate smoke; collecting the generated smoke by sulfuric acid; and determining the smoke content of the edible oil by colorimetry through comparing the color index of the collected smoke in sulfuric acid with the pre-established calibration function representing the relationship between the color index and concentration of the edible oil smoke in sulfuric acid.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for switching the operating frequency of a computer host board by setting on a screen of the computer is disclosed. The apparatus and method use a frequency selection controller, instead of a switch or jumper selector used in a conventional apparatus and method, to control a frequency doubling factor required for the CPU and system chip set and a frequency selection signal output to a frequency generator.
