  • Publication number: 20170053761
    Abstract: A polar relay is provided including: an insulation housing, an armature assembly, and a coil assembly. The armature assembly is pivotably mounted within the insulation housing. The armature assembly is rotatable between a first position and a second position, with one end of the iron core in contact with one armature of the pair of armatures while the other end of the iron core is spaced apart from and thus out of contact with the pair of armatures by corresponding gaps therebetween. The gaps are provided without providing a magnetic isolation plate between or applying an isolation layer onto contact layers of the armature and the iron core. The armature assembly is rotatable around a vertical pivot axis, avoiding changing a position of the pivot point during the movement of the iron core, stabilizing the action of the armature assembly, and ensuring the continuity of the action of the product.

  • Patent number: 9043685
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method and apparatus for processing and error correction of a GFP-T superblock, where the 64 bytes of payload data of a first superblock are buffered in the first page of a two-page buffer. The flag byte is buffered in a separate buffer, and a CRC operation is performed in a separate logic element. The result of the CRC operation is checked against a single syndrome table which may indicate single- or multi-bit errors. As the payload data of the first superblock is processed and read out of the first page of the two-page buffer, the payload data of a second superblock is written into the second page of the two-page buffer to be processed and corrected.

  • Publication number: 20130026015
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of electric appliance such as AC/DC relay, AC/DC contactor and AC/DC low-voltage apparatus, and in particular, to a vent structure formed on the housing of an electric appliance. In one preferred embodiment, the present invention provides a vent structure for the housing of an electric appliance, the vent structure is defined by a clearance between a first wall and a second wall formed on the housing, the clearance is located between a first surface of the first wall and a second surface of the second wall, wherein the first wall and the second wall are not in the same plane. According to the present invention, a specific die is adopted in molding such housing. By the engagement between the male and female die inserts in the die, the vent structure in the housing of an electric appliance has a staggered and drop structure.
