Abstract: A spring-assisted cordless roller shade without clutch system includes a tubular body defining an internal space. A shade is wound on the tubular body. The internal space has a first section and a second section. In each of the first and second sections are mounted a connector, a central shaft assembled with the connector, a fixing member connected with the central shaft and a subsidiary shaft disposed on the fixing member. An elastic member is disposed between the connector and the central shaft to provide a frictional force. A rotational member and a torsion spring are mounted on the subsidiary shaft of the first section and rotatable along with the tubular body. A constant force belt spring module is assembled with the subsidiary shaft of the second section. When the operational force applied to the shade disappears, the shade is immediately located.

A mounting path is formed on the support element for holding a plurality of mounting elements of an object. The blocking element is configured to be driven by the linking element. When the blocking element is located at a first position, the blocking element blocks the mounting path of the support element. When the blocking element is located at a second position, the blocking element does not block the mounting path of the support element.

The first and second gate spacers may be formed of different materials having different etch rates.

Abstract: A drive system for a window treatment blind provides cordless operation of the blind in that the blind may be moved between a retracted position and an extended position without the typical user activation of a lift cord. The drive system includes an actuator with a spring tensioned spool that winds the lift cord as the blind is retracted and unwinds the lift cord as the blind is extended. The drive system eliminates the strangulation hazard to children presented by conventional lift cords.

Abstract: An adjustment device for a cable management arm includes a first support member, a second support member, and a positioning member. The first support member has a plurality of holes. The second support member is movably connected to the first support member and has a through hole. The positioning member is fixed to the second support member and has a positioning portion and a resilient section connected to the positioning portion. When in use, the positioning portion partially extends through the through hole, selectively extends through one of the holes, and then is positioned by a force of the resilient section, such that the extension-length of the second support member relative to the first support member is adjusted.

Abstract: A spring-assisted cordless roller shade without clutch system includes a tubular body defining an internal space. The internal space has a first section and a second section. In each of the first and second sections is mounted a connector, a central shaft assembled with the connector, a fixing member pivotally connected with the central shaft and a transmission shaft disposed on the fixing member. An elastic member is disposed between the connector and the central shaft to provide a frictional force for controlling and adjusting the rotation of the tubular body. A rotational section is mounted on the transmission shaft of the first section and rotatable along with the tubular body. A band-type spring module is assembled with the transmission shaft of the second section. When the operational force applied to the shade disappears, the shade is immediately located.

Abstract: A bracket pin assembly includes a support plate having an end plate which has at least one opening. The pin includes a base, a support member, a first installation member, a second installation member, and a resilient member. The base has a chamber and the support member is connected to the base. The first and second installation members respectively have a first engaging portion and a second engaging portion. The support member has an engaging section. The resilient member is located in the chamber of the base to bias the first and second installation members. When the installation members of the pin extend through the first installation holes of the first post, the first and second engaging portions are engaged with the engaging section of the support members to secure the first and second installation members relative to the support members.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an artificial neural network (ANN) representation for system dynamics models (SDMs) and its applications in model construction and policy design. It first shows that, by a special design of the mapping scheme, a given flow diagram (FD) (i.e., traditional representation) can be transformed into a corresponding model in the representation of partial recurrent networks (PRNs) that will correctly behave like the one it mimics. The present invention shows the equivalence of the two types of representations, both structurally and mathematically. With the additional representation, an automatic learning method that can assist in the construction of SDMs is proposed, which starts from an initial skeleton of a PRN (mapping from an initial FD), identifies the cause-effect relationships within the SDM by neural learning, and then converts it back to the corresponding FD. The composite approach makes model construction simpler and more systematic.
