Abstract:
A method of folding up a table, which includes two tabletop panels, two leg frames foldably mounted at the tabletop panels respectively, and two connecting joints pivotally coupled between the tabletop panels respectively for enabling the tabletop panels to be pivotally folded between a folded condition and an unfolded condition, wherein a pivotal movable gap is formed at each of the connecting joints to enable a pivotal movement the tabletop panels to be pivotally folded between the folded condition and the unfolded condition, includes the steps of (a) pivotally folding the tabletop panels to the unfolded condition; and (b) locking up the pivotal movement between the tabletop panels in the unfolded condition for preventing a lateral movement of each of the connecting joints through the pivotal movable gap thereof.
Abstract:
A foldable table includes a first tabletop panel, a second tabletop panel, and a reinforcing frame which includes first through fourth reinforcing members mounted along longitudinal sides of the first and second tabletop panels respectively, a first transverse member transversely extended between outer end portions of the first and second reinforcing members at the first tabletop panel, and a second transverse member transversely extended between outer end portions of the third and fourth reinforcing members at the second tabletop panel. Two ends of the first transverse member are affixed to the first and second reinforcing members in a non-rotatably movable manner. Two ends of the second transverse member are affixed to the third and fourth reinforcing members in a non-rotatably movable manner. Therefore, the first and second transverse members enhance the rigidity of the reinforcement frame to support two transverse sides of the first and second tabletop panels respectively.
Abstract:
A fabricating method of a flexible circuit board includes the following steps. The metal carrier foil with metal oxide layer on its surfaces is provided first. The metal oxide layer is formed from the spontaneous oxidization of the metal carrier foil in ambient air and provides passive protection in a sulfuric acid solution or an acidic copper sulphate solution. A conductive seed layer is electroplated onto the metal oxide layer. A flexible insulating layer is formed onto the conductive seed layer by performing a polyimide casting process. The metal carrier foil is then peeled off from the conductive seed layer, which is supported by the insulating layer. A patterned circuit is formed on the insulating layer by performing photoresist coating, developing and etching.

Abstract:
In an apparatus and method for magnetic field assisted electrochemical discharge machining (ECDM), the magneto hydrodynamic (MHD) effect is utilized to improve the thickness of bubble film and the electrolyte circulation so as to enhance the machining accuracy and efficiency. Since charged ions in a magnetic field are induced by Lorenz force to move, and the electrolysis bubbles generated in the ECDM process are suffused with electrification ions on their surfaces, the electrolysis bubbles can be forced to move in the direction of the magnetic field without the need of mechanical disturbance. The present invention can be widely applied in the micro-machining of non-conductive brittle materials of different dimensions and shapes, comprising the forming of microchannels and microholes on a biochip, and in the micro-opto-electro-mechanical system (MOEMS) and various kinds of micro-machining fields. The machined surface is smooth and does not require a second time machining.

A method of forming a conductive contact includes forming a structure comprising an upper surface joining with a sidewall surface. The sidewall surface contains elemental-form silicon. Silicon is epitaxially grown from the sidewall surface. Dielectric material is formed over the upper surface and the epitaxially-grown silicon. A conductive contact is formed through the dielectric material to conductively connect with the upper surface.

An edge-lit backlight module includes a back plate, a light bar, and a light guide plate. The back plate has a bottom plate and four lateral sides. Each of the lateral sides is perpendicular to the bottom plate and connected to a peripheral edge of the bottom plate. The light bar is disposed on a side of an internal face of one of the lateral sides to leave at least one accommodation space on the lateral side. The light guide plate has at least one extension portion corresponding to the accommodation space. The light guide plate is disposed on the bottom plate, and each extension portion of the light guide plate engages with the corresponding accommodation space for fixing the light guide plate onto the back plate.
