Abstract: The present invention provides a circuitry within a router or a switch, wherein the circuitry comprises a priority decision circuitry and a per-stream filtering and policing circuitry. The priority decision circuitry is configured to determine a priority of a frame received from a port of the router or the switch. The per-stream filtering and policing circuitry is configured to classify the frame into a first-type frame, a second-type frame or a third-type frame, wherein if the frame is determined as the first-type frame, the per-stream filtering and policing circuitry forwards the frame; if the frame is determined as the third-type frame, the per-stream filtering and policing circuitry discards the frame; and if the frame is determined as the second-type frame, the per-stream filtering and policing circuitry changes the priority of the frame, and the per-stream filtering and policing circuitry forwards the frame with the changed priority.

Abstract: An electrical apparatus comprises a casing, a light-guiding device and a light-emitting device. In this case, the casing has a keyboard setting area for accommodating a keyboard. An opening is located at one side of the keyboard setting area. The light-guiding device is set in the casing and is near to the opening. Light is emerged from the light-guiding device and a part of the light passes through the opening to one side of the keyboard. The light-emitting device is set at one side of the light-guiding device.

Abstract: A heat sink assembly having rotatable fins includes a housing, a first heat dissipating device, a rod, an elastic member and a lever. The housing includes a first sidewall having a first hole, a first sliding hole and a stop portion, and a second sidewall having a second hole and a second sliding hole. The first heat dissipating device is in the housing and has a third hole, a first protrusion sliding in the first sliding hole, and a second protrusion sliding in the second sliding hole. The rod passes through the first, second and third holes. The first heat dissipating device rotates between a first position and a second position with the rod of being a rotating center. A first end of the elastic member connects with the stop portion, and a second end thereof connects with the first protrusion. The lever moves with the second protrusion.

Abstract: An electronic device includes a housing. The housing includes a cavity for inserting a display monitor and a support module. When the display monitor is extended outside the housing, the support module is moves along the track while coupled to the track for loading the display monitor. When the display monitor is fully extended, the support module then rotates with a specific angle forming an open position to allow the display monitor to be viewed uncovered outside the housing. The display monitor can also be lodged within the housing to protect the monitor surface and to utilize electricity saving features.

Abstract: A hinge fastening apparatus is disclosed. The hinge fastening apparatus includes a first housing; a second housing; a hinge module including a first hinge unit connected to the first housing and a second hinge unit connected to the second housing; a latch bracket module including a first end connected to the hinge module and a second end having a opening; and a positioning module, installed on the first housing, having a bulge part, wherein if the positioning module is engaged with the opening, the relative locations of the first and second housings are fixed.

Abstract: An electronic device having an enclosure capable of being rotated horizontally and displaced vertically, the electronic device includes a first housing, a second housing and a sleeve module. The sleeve module is coupled to the first housing and the second housing. The first housing is shifted vertically relative to the second housing according to the rotation of the sleeve module.

Abstract: A slider module with a flipping function includes a slide board, an end stopper, at least one protrusion and a slider assembly. The end stopper is mounted on one end of the slide board.

Abstract: A method for making a composite material member having reinforcement ribs includes several basic units which are composed of a core which can be a foam material core, thermoplastic core or honeycomb structure core, and braided fabric are wrapped around the core. The basic units are arranged to be a desired shape or fashion and combined by another layer of braided fabric. A resin is added to connect the layers of the braided fabric as one so as to obtain a composite material member that has reinforcement ribs.

Abstract: A method for forming a composite article including a core with fiber and resin outer layer includes step 1 of making first grooves in an outer surface of a core; step 2 of mounting a netted member to the core, if necessary; step 3 of laying up a composite material outer layer onto the netted member; step 4 of putting the core with the outer layer in a mold which has an inlet and an outlet both communicating with the composite material outer layer; step 5 of injecting resin into the inlet and sucking air from the outlet.
