  • Patent number: 11139618
    Abstract: An electrical module is electrically conducted with an electronic component, and includes multiple conductors having a first row of conductors arranged in a left-right direction and an insulating body fixing the first row of conductors. Each conductor has a contact portion in contact with the electronic component. A distance between each two adjacent contact portions of the conductors in the left-right direction is defined as a contact interval. The first row of conductors have at least one pair of signal conductors and at least two ground conductors. Each two adjacent sides of the pair of signal conductors has one ground conductor. The contact interval from one signal conductor to its adjacent ground conductor is defined as a first contact interval. The contact interval from the other signal conductor to its adjacent ground conductor is defined as a second contact interval. The first and second contact intervals are not equal.

  • Patent number: 10944192
    Abstract: An electrical connector is used to be electrically connected to a mating component. The electrical connector includes a body having an insertion slot for the mating component to insert therein along a mating direction, and two side walls located at two opposite sides of the insertion slot and extending along an elongated direction perpendicular to the mating direction. A retainer is provided at one end of the body along the elongated direction to buckle with the mating component. Multiple terminals are provided on the two side walls, protruding into the insertion slot to mate with the mating component. A metal member is provided on the body and correspondingly covering one of the side walls. The metal member is provided with at least one through slot provided obliquely relative to the mating direction and adjacent to the retainer in the elongated direction.

  • Patent number: 9182352
    Abstract: A method for detecting crude oil or gas in a drilling sample includes introducing a drilling sample into a sample solution containing nano particles, illuminating the sample solution comprising the drilling sample and the nano particles by a laser beam, collecting light scattered by the drilling sample and the nano particles in the sample solution, obtaining a Raman spectrum from the light scattered by the drilling sample and the nano particles in the sample solution, identifying, in the Raman spectrum, a spectral signature associated with a substance around a predetermined Raman shift, and detecting targeted chemicals correlated with crude oil or gas existence underground from where the drilling sample, based on the spectral signature of the substance in the Raman spectrum.

  • Patent number: 8699019
    Abstract: A method for inspecting an edible oil includes obtaining a first Raman spectrum from an edible oil sample, discovering an unhealthy, unsanitary, unsafe, or adulterated content in the edible oil sample in part by the intensity level of the fluorescence background in the first Raman spectrum, introducing the edible oil sample to nano-scale surface structures to allow molecules of the edible oil sample to be adsorbed to the nano-scale surface structures, illuminating the edible oil sample and the nano-scale surface structures by a laser beam, obtaining a second Raman spectrum from light scattered by molecules of the edible oil sample adsorbed to the nano-scale surface structures, and identifying the unhealthy, unsanitary, or unsafe content in the edible oil sample using one or more first spectral signatures in the second Raman spectrum.
