The locking shaft is quickly slid to open and close the notch for easy accessing.

Abstract: A safety hook including a hook body, a latch member, a locking portion, and a control member is disclosed. The latch member is capable of rotating about a guide pin and swinging along a guide slot in an arc-shaped path to open or close a hook opening, wherein when the latch member locks and closes the hook opening, the locking portion and the guide pin form a locked chain structure to bear a lateral impact force on the latch member. When the latch member rotates about the guide pin and swings along the guide slot in an arc-shaped path to open or close the hook opening, the control member is capable of driving the locking edge to release the locking portion, so as to open the hook opening by a swinging movement of the latch member.

Abstract: Embedded memories. The devices include a substrate, a first dielectric layer, a second dielectric layer, a third dielectric layer, and a plurality of capacitors. The substrate comprises transistors. The first dielectric layer, embedding first and second conductive plugs electrically connecting the transistors therein, overlies the substrate. The second dielectric layer, comprising a plurality of capacitor openings exposing the first conductive plugs, overlies the first dielectric layer. The capacitors comprise a plurality of bottom plates, respectively disposed in the capacitor openings, electrically connecting the first conductive plugs, a plurality of capacitor dielectric layers respectively overlying the bottom plates, and a top plate, comprising a top plate opening, overlying the capacitor dielectric layers. The top plate opening exposes the second dielectric layer, and the top plate is shared by the capacitors.

Abstract: A system for research and development information assisting in investment, and a method, a computer program, and a readable and recordable media for computer thereof are disclosed. The system comprises a processing unit, a database module, an investment analysis subsystem, and an output unit, and provides a method, a computer program or a readable and recordable media for computer. The investment analysis subsystem compares an academic document with a patent document to generate a technical relevancy, providing the user to determine whether a patent document of the target enterprise is forward-looking or whether too many popular patents are owned. Therefore, users can choose to enter the market earlier when the stock price of the enterprise is underestimated or exit earlier before the invested enterprise reduces the turnover and the enterprise value due to a vicious competition and a price reduction strategy of competitors, thereby ensuring investors' profits.

Abstract: A game apparatus includes (i) a game board having a major game track with several segments, a bad fate block randomly disposed in each segments and between adjacent pair segments, and a bright future block to set out along the major game track, each of the several segments including several sequential blocks respectively having indicia representing specific characters and an opportunity block, the game board further having a minor game track into which an individual player will be confined upon stepping onto the bad fate block and in which the confined player continues to proceed along the minor game track; (ii) a set of vision cards each for distribution to each individual player at the beginning of the game, each vision card designating an ultimate goal, required points and a set of treasured items for each player such that whoever obtaining the required points and the set of treasured items first will be declared a first winner of the game.

Abstract: A method for forming a strained channel in a semiconductor device is provided, comprises providing of a transistor comprising a gate stack exposed with a gate electrode on a semiconductor substrate, a pair of source/drain regions in the substrate on opposite sides of the gate stack and a pair of spacers on opposing sidewalls of the gate stack. A passivation layer is formed to cover the gate electrode and spacers of the transistor. A passivation layer is formed to cover the gate electrode and the spacers. A recess region is formed in each of the source/drain regions, wherein an edge of the recess region aligns to an outer edge of the spacers. The recess regions are filled with a strain-exerting material, thereby forming a strained channel region in the semiconductor substrate between the source/drain regions.

Abstract: A rotatable plug includes a plug body, a rotatable base and at least two conductive terminals. One end of the plug body has an accommodating space. The plug body is provided with a penetrating hole to make the plug body to form a hollow annular body. The rotatable base is rotatably provided in the accommodating space of the plug body. The two conductive terminals are provided on the rotatable base. The two conductive terminals rotate together with the rotatable base to the outside of the plug body or are accommodated in the plug body. Via this arrangement, the conductive terminals can be avoided from getting inclined or suffering damage by the impact or compression during transportation. Further, it is convenient for the user to put his/her finger in the hollow annular body to pull out the plug.

When the slider is in a first position, the hole is situated outside the housing. When the slider moves with respect to the joining member from the first position to a second position, the hole is concealed in the housing.

Abstract: A retractable extension socket includes an socket body, a fixing structure, a receiving structure, a conducting wire and a plug. The fixing structure and the receiving structure are disposed on the socket body. One end of the conducting wire is connected to the socket body. The plug is connected to the other end of the conducting wire. Thus, a retractable extension socket is formed. The retractable extension socket can be used as an extension socket. In addition, by winding the cable into the socket body and attaching the plug into the fixing structure, the retractable extension socket can be used as a single plug. Furthermore, the plug can be collected into the receiving structure in order that it can be carried around easily.
