Abstract: A channel hiatus correction method for an HDMI device is provided. A recovery code from scrambled data of the stream is obtained. A liner feedback shift register (LFSR) value of channels of the HDMI port is obtained based on the recovery code and the scrambled data of the stream. The stream is de-scrambled according to the LFSR value of the channels of the HDMI port. Video data is displayed according to the de-scrambled stream.

Abstract: An example electronic device includes a controller to determine a user touch detection by a power adaptor coupled to the electronic device to operate the electronic device in an AC power mode. The power adaptor may comprise a proximity sensor to detect a user touch for detachment of the power adaptor from the electronic device, and a control circuit to operate a configuration pin in a low output mode to signal user touch detection. The controller may initiate central processing unit (CPU) throttling to reduce power consumption by the electronic device. The controller may further stop CPU throttling in response to detecting that the power adaptor has been detached from the electronic device. Further, the controller may switch the electronic device to a DC power mode to operate using DC power supplied by a battery of the electronic device in response to power adaptor detachment.

Abstract: A power-controlled bed mainly includes an upper bed frame on which a mattress divided into movable back, thigh, and leg rest parts and a fixed hip rest part is supported; a lower bed frame; at least one lifting mechanism pivotally connected at upper and lower ends to the upper and the lower bed frames, respectively; and a microcomputer controller for controlling operation of the lifting mechanism. The lifting mechanism may be manually controlled for the upper bed frame to statically stay at different positions, or be automatically controlled via the controller to dynamically shift the upper bed frame between two or more selected position combinations, so that the force of gravity is well utilized in the movements of the bed to promote a user's blood circulation, help clearing of sputum, enable sufficient supply of oxygen to the brain, do rehabilitation exercises, etc.

Abstract: A multipurpose body-turn-over apparatus mainly including an elevator, a driving mechanism, ropes, a net, suspension fittings, a vibrator, and a controller. The controller sets operating time and speed, and time pause at reverse of the apparatus, and the elevator is adjustable in height. The driving mechanism drives a displacement shaft of the driven assembly to move or rotate, so that ropes hanging from two ends of the driven assembly to connect the net are alternately pulled up and lowered, helping a patient lying on the net to regularly turn over or lie on side to avoid bedsore, or do rehabilitation exercises. The vibrator may alternately pull and lower ropes connected to two sides of the net at high frequency. The apparatus may be designed into heavy-duty or light models to meet different requirements and can be freely moved for use with different sickbeds.

Abstract: Disclosed is a multipurpose body-turn-over apparatus mainly including an elevator support, a cantilever elevator fixed to the elevator support, a driving mechanism mounted on the cantilever elevator, and a controller for setting operating time and speed, reverse, and pause of the driving mechanism, as well as adjusting height of the elevator support. The driving mechanism drives a driven assembly to reciprocate, so that ropes hanging from two ends of the driven assembly to connect a net thereto are alternately pulled up and lowered, causing a patient lying on the net to turn over regularly to avoid bedsore due to lying on bed for a prolonged time. Means other than the net may also be selectively connected to the ropes to help patient do rehabilitation exercises or complete skeletal traction. The apparatus may be designed into heavy-duty or light model to meet different requirements and can be freely moved for use with different sick beds.

Abstract: Disclosed is a multi-functional bed structure which includes a main operational control unit and a bed portion. The main operational control unit includes an elevating mechanism which can be controlled to cause the bed portion to move up and down or forward and backward reciprocatingly in different selected manners. The bed portion may be a roller type or a non-roller type. A roller type bed portion includes a chassis structure below a mattress-supporting bed frame provided with roller rails. A lifting mechanism is mounted on the chassis structure to lift or lower the bed frame by engaging rollers connected to a top of the lifting mechanism with the roller rails on the bed frame. A raising mechanism is mounted below the bed frame to raise different parts of the mattress as needed by the user. The elevating, the lifting, and the raising mechanisms all can be operated in three different control manners, namely, manual, displacement range, and random controls, so that the bed portion may be shifted rhythmically.
