  • Publication number: 20160243596
    Abstract: A bag apparatus for delivering fluid comprises an inflatable bag structure, a pipe and an adjuster. The inflatable bag structure includes a first channel and a second channel. The pipe penetrates through the inflatable bag structure and includes a first conduit. The first conduit communicates with an outside of the inflatable bag structure. An inflated space is formed between the pipe and the inflatable bag structure and communicates with the first channel. The first conduit communicates with the second channel. The adjuster is movably inserted into an end of the inflatable bag structure. A through hole is disposed on the radial side of the adjuster. When the adjuster moves to an inflating position, the through hole communicates with the first channel and a fluid supply; when the adjuster moves to a delivering position, the through hole communicates with the second channel and the fluid supply.

  • Publication number: 20160190064
    Abstract: A semiconductor device with the metal fuse is provided. The metal fuse connects an electronic component (e.g., a transistor) and a existing dummy feature which is grounded. The protection of the metal fuse can be designed to start at the beginning of the metallization formation processes. The grounded dummy feature provides a path for the plasma charging to the ground during the entire back end of the line process. The metal fuse is a process level protection as opposed to the diode, which is a circuit level protection. As a process level protection, the metal fuse protects subsequently-formed circuitry. In addition, no additional active area is required for the metal fuse in the chip other than internal dummy patterns that are already implemented.

  • Publication number: 20160033078
    Abstract: An oil injector for a vehicle is provided. The oil injector includes a transparent body having a flowing hole formed on a front end of the body. A flexible tube member is connected to the body and corresponds to the flowing hole. A storing space is formed in an internal portion of the body. One end of a piston member is entered into the storing space, and the piston member is movable relative to the body. Therefore, the piston member provides a pushing function in the storing space so that a fluid flows into or out form the body via the tube member, and the transparent body is provided for observing a storing amount of the fluid in the body.

  • Patent number: 9248940
    Abstract: A storage case is provided, including two shell bodies correspondingly foldably and unfoldably connected to each other. Each shell body includes a main body and a color ring arranged around a circumferential edge at an end of the main body, and a color of the color ring is different from a color of the main body. When the two shell bodies are correspondingly folded, the two color rings are substantially disposed parallel to each other in intervals and located at opposite end edges remote from each other of the two shell bodies. When the two shell bodies are unfolded and located neighboring to and parallel to each other, the two color rings are disposed, substantially, neighboring to each other on the same level.

  • Publication number: 20150266041
    Abstract: A spray gun includes a control portion, a flared tube, a spray tube, and a connecting tube between the control portion and the spray tube. A fluid container communicates with the connecting tube via a sucking tube. An inner tube located in the spray tube has an end communicating with the sucking tube. The flared tube covers the spray tube and has a restriction portion therein to sleeve onto the spray tube. When the control portion is triggered to allow gas enter the connecting tube and the spray tube, fluid is sucked into the inner tube from the fluid container and is mixed with the gas to form mist. An air channel between the control portion and the fluid container is adapted for pressurize the fluid to facilitate sucking the fluid.
