  • Publication number: 20200386624
    Abstract: Disclosed is a sensor, comprising: a housing; a detecting element provided inside the housing; a first cylinder provided inside the housing and sleeved outside the detecting element, the first cylinder having an amount of elastic deformation in a direction intersecting a surface around the detecting element; a particle filler, for filling an inner cavity of the housing. When external environment produces mechanical shock to the sensor or the sensor produces mechanical vibration, the limiting action of the first cylinder and the particle filler enables the detecting element to only have very little vibration displacement or even no vibration displacement with respect to the housing. The external mechanical shock can be partially or completely absorbed by the first cylinder and the particle filler, so as to reduce vibration displacement of the detecting element caused by the shock.

  • Patent number: 10436381
    Abstract: A wall-hung bracket for a projection screen is provided, including a guide rail, a slider and a lead screw. The guide rail is configured for being fixed on a wall along a vertical direction. The slider is slidingly connected to the guide rail. The slider is configured for being connected to a rear surface of a projection screen. The lead screw is provided with threads, and the lead screw is in threaded connection to the slider. When the lead screw rotates on its longitudinal axis, the slider slides in the vertical direction along the guide rail driven by the lead screw.
