  • Publication number: 20080210651
    Abstract: A stepless shelf structure for rack includes a main post having a longitudinal and forward opened and reduced slide way; a plurality of sliding members movably connected to the slide way for connecting to a shelf each. Each of the sliding members includes a rearward slide block having an expanded rear portion for slidably receiving in the forward reduced slide way. A locating recess is formed at a lower side of each slide block to receive a transverse locating body. An adjusting lever is forward extended from the locating body for controlling the locating body to press or not press against two lateral outer wall surfaces of the forward reduced opening of the slide way. When the locating body is controlled not to press against the outer wall surfaces of the slide way, the shelf connected to the slide member may be adjusted to a different height.

  • Patent number: 7407514
    Abstract: An integrated processing technique for preparing moisture management textiles or fabrics wherein fibers are treated with compositions which impart a hydrophobic or hydrophilic property such that when incorporated into the fabrication of composite structured textiles or fabrics a hydrophobic inner surface and a hydrophilic outer surface are formed. The integrated processing technique for preparing moisture management textiles also includes finishing the textiles or fabrics to enhance the fabric's liquid water one way transfer properties. The advantage of this invention is the possibility to manufacture the pure cotton woven/knit fabrics with the good moisture management properties.

  • Publication number: 20080157912
    Abstract: This invention discloses a monolithic inductor including a body made by compressing a magnetic powder, a coil positioned in the body, and a permanent magnet positioned in the body and in a magnetic circuit formed by applying current to the coil. The monolithic inductor of this invention includes the magnetic body containing the permanent magnet and the coil. The permanent magnet in the magnetic circuit (path of magnetic flux lines) formed by applying current to the coil generates a reverse-bias magnetic field, thereby increasing the operating range of the magnetic body, the saturation current of the magnetic body, and the rated current of the inductor.
