  • Publication number: 20230231534
    Abstract: An acoustic resonator has a piezoelectric plate having first and second surfaces, the second surface facing a substrate, and a diaphragm of the piezoelectric plate spanning a cavity. A conductor pattern is formed on at least one of the first and second surfaces and has an interdigital transducer (IDT) having interleaved fingers on the diaphragm portion of the piezoelectric plate. At least one of a pitch of the interleaved IDT fingers or a mark of the interleaved IDT fingers varies over an area of the IDT to compensate for process-induced distortion of the diaphragm portion of the piezoelectric plate.

  • Publication number: 20080172490
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a data scanning system and a method thereof for a server. The method includes steps of defining an auditing period, scanning an accessed data in a default scanning mode from the server by a user, obtaining a credit data of the user, and executing a rearranging process for resetting a reset scanning mode for the user according to the credit data when the auditing period is expired, thereby the default scanning mode being adjustable according to the credit data of the user.

  • Publication number: 20080065074
    Abstract: A mechanism to connect the supporting portions of orthopaedic implants such as in the head, spine, upper limb and lower limb and thereby prevent loosening and fretting at the implant interface of an orthopaedic implant construct has been developed based on shape memory effect and super-elasticity of shape memory materials such as nickel-titanium (nitinol or NiTi) shape-memory-alloy, without the use of typical threaded fastening technique. Advantages are conferred by making the entire device, not just connecting pieces, out of shape memory alloy and having shape memory effect and super-elasticity. Heating the memory head of the device will compress the connection portion without the use of an auxiliary device (e.g. coupling member) so that the connection portion can be completely clamped down by the memory head.

  • Publication number: 20080053575
    Abstract: The present invention relates generally to a shape memory and/or super-elastic material, such as a nickel titanium alloy. Additionally or alternatively, the present invention relates to a super-elastic or pseudo-elastic material that has an initial transition temperature Af above a body temperature. The shape memory material can have a super-elasticity or pseudo-elasticity property at a temperature below the initial transition temperature Af of the material. For example, the shape memory material can have its workable temperature for producing super-elasticity or pseudo-elasticity of about 0° C. to 15° C. below the initial transition temperature Af. The shape memory material can be malleable at a room temperature, and become super-elastic or pseudo-elastic at a body temperature. In addition, the present invention relates to a method of making a shape memory or a super-elastic material.

  • Patent number: 7172390
    Abstract: A connecting device of a hot swap fan module comprises at least one terminal and a casing. The at least one terminal is electrically connected to the fan so that, when the fan is mounted in a system, electrical connection is formed between the fan and the system. The connecting device further comprises at least one LED (light emitting diode) which is electrically connected to the fan or the at least one terminal for indicating the operating state of the fan, and at least one cover plate protruded from at least one edge of the casing so as to form the whole casing into an L or U-shaped structure. The casing is closely attached to one side face of the fan housing when the casing is assembled to the fan. The casing also has a recess for receiving those lead wires electrically connecting the terminals, the fan, and the LED.

  • Publication number: 20060157159
    Abstract: The invention provides a method for making surface treated shape memory materials such as from NiTi alloy using plasma immersion ion implantation and deposition and related ion-beam and plasma-based techniques to alter the surface properties of those materials primarily for biomedical applications. The surfaces are treated with nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon, but become bio-inactive after implanted with other elements such as silicon.
