Patent number: 9669657Abstract: A bidirectional hub assembly includes an axle unit, a hub shell mounted on the axle unit, a driving unit mounted on the axle unit, and a plurality of right-hand-drive and left-hand-drive units that are mounted to the hub shell. Each of the right-hand-drive and left-hand-drive units has a pawl engageable with the driving unit. The bidirectional hub assembly serves as a right-hand-drive hub when the pawl of at least one of the right-hand-drive units is in an enabled state and the pawl of each of the left-hand-drive units is in a disabled state, and serves as a left-hand-drive hub when the pawl of at least one of the left-hand-drive units is in an enabled state and the pawl of each of the right-hand-drive units is in a disabled state.Type: GrantFiled: November 5, 2015Date of Patent: June 6, 2017Assignee: Kun Teng Industry Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hubert Chen, Yung-Yuan Liao

Publication number: 20160347404Abstract: A transmission system includes a hub unit and a crankshaft for being respectively mounted to seat stays and a bottom bracket of a bicycle, a transmission unit and an engaging unit. The transmission unit includes a driving sprocket sleeved on the crankshaft, at least one driven sprocket mounted to the hub unit, and a chain trained on the driving and driven sprockets. The engaging unit includes first and second ratchet members sleeved co-rotatably on the crankshaft, and a resilient element for biasing the first ratchet member toward the second ratchet member. The first ratchet member is slidable relative to the crankshaft and has first ratchet teeth. The second ratchet member is co-rotatable with the driving sprocket and has second ratchet teeth.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 1, 2015Publication date: December 1, 2016Inventors: Hubert Chen, Yung-Yuan Liao

Publication number: 20150062865Abstract: An indicating light for transportation has a circuit board, a reflective layer and a light guide plate sequentially attached. Multiple LEDs are mounted on the circuit board and emit light. The light guide plate has an inner surface and an outer surface, wherein at least one indicating portion is formed on the inner surface for reflecting or refracting light of the LEDs to the outer surface. The reflective layer further prevents light leakage. Therefore, the indication portion generates a surface light effect for reducing glare and providing an enlarged illuminating area.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 21, 2014Publication date: March 5, 2015Applicant: CHAO-WEI PRECISION CO., LTD.Inventors: Yung-Yuan LIAO, Chao-Che LIAO

Publication number: 20140203462Abstract: A method of manufacturing a plate workpiece with surface microstructures is provided. Before press-molding, a preform is placed between a first mold with a pattern and a second mold, and is disposed on the second mold. Next, the first mold and the second mold are heated to a transition temperature of the preform, and then pressed against the preform to impress the pattern onto the preform to obtain a patterned preform. Finally, the patterned preform is cooled with the second mold and shrunk to obtain the plate workpiece with surface microstructures. Since the patterned preform is uniformly cooled from bottom to top by thermal conduction, the temperature field is isothermal in a horizontal distribution. Therefore, a plate workpiece with high accuracy surface microstructures is obtained, and is useful for carrying multiple optical fibers in optical communication.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 22, 2013Publication date: July 24, 2014Applicant: CHAO-WEI METAL INDUSTRIAL CO. LTDInventors: Yung-Yuan Liao, Chao-Wei Liao
