Patent number: 8478121Abstract: A camera includes an image sensor, a storing module, an infrared shutter module, and a controlling module. The image sensor converts light rays projected thereon to digital image signals. The storing module is for storing the digital image signals. The infrared shutter module includes an infrared emitter and an infrared receiver adjacent to the infrared emitter, and when infrared rays emitted from the infrared emitter are transmitted into the infrared receiver, the infrared shutter module outputs a triggering signal. The controlling module electrically connects to the image sensor, the storing module, the infrared shutter module and stores the digital image signals in the storing module when receiving the triggering signal.Type: GrantFiled: October 27, 2011Date of Patent: July 2, 2013Assignees: Premier Image Technology (China) Ltd., Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., Ltd.Inventor: Yong-Jian Chen

Patent number: 7353569Abstract: A hinge assembly (100) for use in a flat display monitor (120) includes a base seat (10), a pivotal shaft (20) and a plurality of washers (30, 40, 50, 60, 70). The base seat includes a first end portion (12) and a second portion (14), which are substantially perpendicular to each other. The first end portion has a retaining hole (122) therein. A protrusion (124) of the first end portion extends into the retaining hole. The pivotal shaft includes a pivotal portion (24). The pivotal portion has at least one flat surface (242) pivotally engaging with the protrusion. The pivotal shaft passes through the retaining hole of the base seat and the plurality of washers, allowing the elements of the hinge assembly to be fastened together.Type: GrantFiled: November 18, 2005Date of Patent: April 8, 2008Assignees: Hong Fu Jin Precision Industry (ShenZhen) Co., Ltd., Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yong-Jian Chen, An-Kui Hu, Fan Zhou

Patent number: 7328483Abstract: A hinge assembly (9) includes a shell (1), a coil spring (2), a shaft (3), and two bolts (4). The shell defines a cavity (12) therein, with one end of the shell being closed and the other end being open. Two holes (14) are defined in the shell near the open end. The shaft includes a cam (32), a soleplate (38), and an interconnecting neck (34). The cam includes a cam surface (324) at one end thereof, the cam surface including peaks and valleys. The spring and the shaft are received in the shell, but with the soleplate exposed outside. The spring biases the cam surface against the bolts no matter what part of the cam surface abuts the bolts. Because the hinge assembly of the present invention is effectively an integrated, modular structure, it is easily incorporated into a portable foldable device such as a mobile phone.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2004Date of Patent: February 12, 2008Assignees: Hong Fu Jin Precision Industry (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd., Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yong-Jian Chen, Xing-Bing Zou

Publication number: 20050172455Abstract: A hinge assembly for joining a cover to a main body of a foldable device includes a hollow housing (10), a spring (20), a shaft (30), and a positioning pin (40). The housing includes an open end, an opposite rear end (11). The spring is received in the housing. The shaft includes a cam portion (34) received in the housing, and a shaft portion (32) passing through the spring and extending out through the rear end. One end of the spring biases the cam portion, and an opposite end of the spring biases the rear end. The pin is transversely retained in the housing near the open end, and is rotatable relative to the shaft and movably engaged with a cam surface of the cam portion. When the rear end is urged in an axial direction by the spring, the cam surface causes the pin to rotate the housing.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 28, 2004Publication date: August 11, 2005Applicant: HON HAI Precision Industry CO., LTD.Inventors: Yong-Jian Chen, Xing-Bing Zou
