  • Patent number: 12293731
    Abstract: This disclosure provide various techniques for tracking emission profiles on an electronic display. An emission profile may be applied to the electronic display in order to illuminate certain pixels and deactivate (e.g., turn off) certain pixels in the electronic display to facilitate refreshing (e.g., programming with new image data) the deactivated pixels. A real-time row-based average pixel level or average pixel luminance calculation architecture may track the one or more EM profiles to accurately model EM profile behavior, which may enable accurate calculation of the average pixel level or average pixel luminance of the electronic display at any one point in time. The accurate average pixel level or average pixel luminance calculations effectuated by the EM profile tracking may be used to reduce the IR drop, improve real-time peak-luminance control, and improve the performance of under-display sensors, among other advantages.

  • Publication number: 20250108320
    Abstract: A buffering device for a filter bottle. The buffering device is disposed on a body of the filter bottle and has a sidewall, a top, a bottom, and a chamber. The top of the buffering device is moveable up and down along the sidewall of the buffering device. The chamber is formed between the sidewall, the top, and the bottom of the buffering device, and does not communicate with an interior of the filter bottle. The chamber communicates with an exterior via an air gap for air exchange. A filter bottle having the buffering device can provide a function of anti-water-hammer, can reduce a risk of leakage at a connection between the filter bottle and a valve head, and can provide an anti-freeze effect to reduce a risk of rupture of the filter bottle.

  • Patent number: 12215041
    Abstract: A water filter includes a filtering head, a filter bottle assembly, a switch member, and a quick release device. The filtering head includes a flow channel module. The filter bottle assembly includes a filter bottle. The quick release device includes a press lever, two links, and two push members. When the press lever is pivoted, the two links and the two push members are driven by the press lever to move the filter bottle simultaneously so that the filter bottle is mounted on or detached from the filtering head quickly. A switch member functions as a waterway switch to control a water supply of the filtering head and functions as a locking mechanism for locking or unlocking the quick release device.

  • Publication number: 20240332319
    Abstract: An electronic device may include a substrate, an array of display pixels formed on the substrate, first conductive contacts on the substrate, second conductive contacts on the substrate, a flexible printed circuit that is attached to the first conductive contacts, a display driver integrated circuit that is attached to the second conductive contacts, and conductive traces that electrically connect the first conductive contacts to the second conductive contacts. A dielectric layer may cover at least the sidewalls of the conductive traces to protect the conductive traces from damage by an etchant. Subsequently, some or all of the dielectric layer may be removed to prevent damage caused by moisture ingress into the cladding layer.

  • Publication number: 20240013692
    Abstract: To reduce overall power consumption for an electronic display power management integrated circuit (PMIC), one of multiple electric power converters and/or electric power regulators may be selected based on an electrical load (e.g., due to the total brightness of the content displayed) on the electronic display at a given moment. In some embodiments, the PMIC may include a less efficient heavy load converter designed with high-current handling capability and a more efficient light load (e.g., low current) converter with lower current handling capability. A controller may dynamically select between the converters depending on a present load or an expected load on the electronic display.

  • Publication number: 20220389205
    Abstract: A propylene copolymer, a preparation method therefor, and an application thereof are provided. The copolymer forms a cross-linked network by means of a reaction between a furan-containing propylene copolymer and a small molecule of a coupling agent, thereby achieving a chemical bond connection between a polypropylene resin phase and an ethylene-propylene copolymer elastomer phase, fundamentally strengthening the force between the two phases, and improving the mechanical properties of a material. Meanwhile, the copolymer can achieve the decrosslinking of a material during melt processing such that the material has thermoplasticity, and after cooling, it can be crosslinked again to produce network structure.
