Abstract: The present disclosure provides an ultrasonic transducer and a method for preparing a matching layer. The ultrasonic transducer may include a piezoelectric layer and a matching layer. The matching layer may be provided between the piezoelectric layer and an object to be measured, the piezoelectric layer may be acoustically matched with the object through the matching layer, and the piezoelectric layer may facilitate conversion between ultrasonic waves and electrical energy. A sound velocity in the matching layer may be in a gradient distribution in at least one direction. Through the gradient distribution of the sound velocity in the matching layer, ultrasonic waves of different frequencies may have the same wavelength. Thus, an acoustic matching between the piezoelectric layer of different structures and the human body tissues may be realized, which improves transmittance of the ultrasonic wave in the matching layer and increases a bandwidth of the ultrasonic transducer.

Abstract: A sliding hinge for a portable device has a main bracket, a mounting panel and a plate spring assembly. The mounting panel is slid relative to the main bracket. A tether of the plate spring assembly is attached securely to the mounting panel. The mounting panel is attached securely to a cover of the portable device. A hub of the plate spring assembly is attached securely to a base of the portable device. When the cover is slid to open, the plate spring assembly forces the cover to be fully opened. Therefore, the cover slides to be fully opened without external forces.

Abstract: A hinge for a portable computing device has a shaft, a rotating bracket and a stationary bracket. The shaft includes a first portion and a second portion. The first portion is a cylindrical tube. The cylindrical tube has an internal cavity. The second portion has an outer surface and a notch. The notch is formed in the outer surface of the second portion and communicates with the internal cavity of the cylindrical tube. Therefore, cables extending through the internal cavity of the cylindrical tube of the shaft will extend through the notch to electrically connect their corresponding devices in a base and a cover of the portable computing device. The connection of the cables to their corresponding devices is facilitated, because there is no obstruction in the notch, thereby increasing productivity.

Abstract: A transversely movable hinge is mounted between a base and a cover of a folding device and has a moving assembly. The moving assembly is connected to an expansion device via a linking rod. Therefore, when the folding device is opened, the expansion device is driven to extend and is convenient for users. When the folding device is closed, the expansion device is driven to retract for saving space.
