  • Patent number: 9604566
    Abstract: A lamp structure is provided in which a roof rack fixed on top of a car has an engaging slot for locking with a detent portion formed on the bottom of a positioning unit. A connecting portion extending on the detent portion has a fitting indentation with a positioning member penetrating therethrough, one end of the positioning member having a snap-fit portion provided on one end and a positioning pulling lever pivotally provided on the other end. A warning lamp having a snap-fit groove for engaging with the snap-fit portion is combined with the connecting portion. Therefore, the warning lamp has higher assembly position so that light emitted from the warning light is clearly visible by rear drivers from a longer distance and hence has better eye-catching and warning effect, and better driving safety can be achieved.

  • Patent number: 9303617
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a wave energy gathering and enhancing device disposed in a setting area of the sea-bed. A seawater wave approaches the wave energy gathering and enhancing device with a wave vector. The wave energy gathering and enhancing device comprises a plurality of structures. The plurality of structures are arranged below the sea surface in a two-dimensional symmetric discrete group. Each of the structures has a top surface and the top surface is located below the sea surface with a predetermined depth. A lattice with a definite lattice constant is formed by the plurality of structures. The lattice plane formed by the structures and the wave vector of the seawater wave form an angle.
