  • Patent number: 10094970
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a light-emitting apparatus, which comprises at least one reflective housing, at least one light-emitting module, and a reflective member. The reflective housing includes a housing body and a curved surface part. The curved surface part is located on the housing body. The light-emitting module is located below the reflective housing. The light-emitting module includes a light guide plate and at least one light-emitting device. The light-emitting device is located on one side of the light guide plate. The light guide plate includes a plate body and a hole. The hole corresponds to an opening on the curved surface part and is located on the plate body. The reflective member is located below the light-emitting module. The reflective member includes a body and a light-emitting hole. The light-emitting hole corresponds to the hole and located on the body.

  • Patent number: 10073212
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a lamp structure, which comprises a light guide plate, a lamp plate, and a lamp housing. The light guide plate includes an inner loop, an outer loop, and an annular tortuous structure. The annular tortuous structure includes a plurality of top recesses and a plurality of bottom recesses. The plurality of top recesses and the plurality of bottom recesses are interlaced to give a continuous concave-convex structure. The lamp plate is disposed inside the inner loop. The lamp housing includes a top housing member and a bottom housing member. The top and bottom housing members are located on both sides of the lamp plate and disposed on the two loop openings of the inner loop and opposing to each other. Thereby, the light of the lamp plate illuminates outward via the shape and structure of the light guide plate.

  • Patent number: 6795298
    Abstract: A fully automatic deionizer comprising five sub-systems for removing ionic contaminants from various liquids at low energy consumption is devised. Based on the charging-discharging principle of capacitors, the deionizer conducts deionization through applying a low DC voltage to its electrodes for adsorbing ions, while more than 30% of the process energy is recovered and stored by discharging the electrodes. At the mean time of discharge, surface of the electrodes is regenerated on site and reset for performing many more cycles of deionization-regeneration till the desirable purification is attained. In one moment, both deionization and regeneration proceed simultaneously on different groups of electrode modules, and in the next moment the electrode modules quickly switch the two processes. Such swift reciprocating actions are engaged in synchronized coordination of sub-systems of electrode modules, energy management, fluid flow, and automatic control.
