  • Patent number: 8825698
    Abstract: Implementations of the present disclosure include actions of actions of receiving a search query from a searching user, determining that the search query corresponds to a trigger query and, in response, providing data associated with the first set of authoritative users for potential display to the searching user, determining a second set of authoritative users based on the first set of authoritative users, for each authoritative user in the second set of authoritative users, receiving a contact status between the authoritative user and the searching user within a social networking service, and transmitting instructions to display data associated with authoritative users of the second set of authoritative users with search results responsive to the search query, the data including the contact status for each authoritative user in the second set of authoritative users.

  • Patent number: 8410944
    Abstract: A radiator detecting device of the present invention includes a radiator cap, a sensing unit, a circuit device, a warning device, and an adjusting means. One end of the sensing unit connects to the radiator cap, and another end extends toward a direction away from the radiator cap. The circuit device has a circuit board. The circuit board includes a control circuit for detecting a state of the sensing unit, and the sensing unit selectively makes the control circuit generate a suggestion signal. Once receiving the suggestion signal generated by the control circuit, the warning device generates a warning signal. The adjusting means is used for adjusting a length of the sensing unit received in the radiator. Said sensing unit can be moved with respect to the radiator between a first position and a second position. Thereby, the sensing unit can fit different depths of different radiators.

  • Patent number: 5905238
    Abstract: An electrical switch capable of emitting light is composed of a base, a conductive disk, a switching conductive piece, a first and a second fastening conductive pieces, a cap, a rotating mechanism, and a light-emitting diode. The conductive disk is located in a receiving cell of the base such that the conductive disk is fastened with the switching conductive piece. The first and the second fastening conductive pieces are connected with an electrical device. The cap is pervious to light and is joined with the base. The rotating mechanism is composed of a rotary piece and a link column. The light-emitting element is connected with the first and the second fastening conductive pieces which can be connected or disconnected with the switching conductive piece by triggering the link column to actuate the rotary piece capable of driving the conductive disk.

  • Patent number: 5900682
    Abstract: A pull chain switch circuit device for a stepless control of brightness of lighting fixtures of a ceiling fan is composed of a central control unit, a voltage stabilizing and rectifying unit, a pull chain switch, a protective unit, a zero crossing loop, and a gate unit. The input end of the voltage stabilizing and rectifying unit is connected with an alternating current source, whereas the output end of the voltage stabilizing and rectifying unit is connected with the central control unit. The pull chain switch has one end connected with the output end of the voltage stabilizing and rectifying unit. The protective unit is connected with the alternating current source and the central control unit. The zero crossing loop is connected with the alternating current source and the central control unit for detecting a time point at which the alternating current source becomes 0V.

  • Patent number: 5811745
    Abstract: A three-way switch is composed of a base, an amature member, at least three conductive pieces, and a diode. The base is provided with a receiving space for housing the amature member, the conductive pieces, and the diode. The amature member is fastened with a bridging conductive member such that the armature member is provided with a plurality of bridging portions and an insulation portion, which are in contact with the contact ends of the conductive pieces. The first and the third conductive pieces bring about a power input while the second conductive piece brings about a power output. The diode is connected with the first and the third conductive pieces.
