Abstract:
A belt tension adjustment mechanism for use in an optical module of a scanning apparatus includes a sliding member, a fixture member, a supporting member and a resilient member. The sliding member is arranged on a surface of the optical module and movable on the surface of the optical module. The fixture member is used to fix the belt. The supporting member supports the belt. By means of the resilient member, a tension is applied onto the belt.
Abstract:
By combining a sensing module having a lens and an image sensor with a carriage module having a mirror set, a reading device of a scanning apparatus is assembled. The sensing module further includes two channels at bilateral sides of the lens and two guiding slots disposed on external sides of the channels. The carriage module further includes two linear tracks corresponding to the channels and two bolt hole pedestals corresponding to the guiding slots. The sensing module is glided on the carriage module when the linear tracks are embedded in corresponding channels, thereby correcting the desired magnification.
Abstract:
A sequential burst mode regulation system to deliver power to a plurality of loads. In the exemplary embodiments, the system of the present invention generates a plurality of phased pulse width modulated signals from a single pulse width modulated signal, where each of the phased signals regulates power to a respective load. Exemplary circuitry includes a PWM signal generator, and a phase delay array that receives a PWM signal and generates a plurality of phased PWM signals which are used to regulate power to respective loads. A frequency selector circuit can be provided that sets the frequency of the PWM signal using a fixed or variable frequency reference signal.
Abstract:
A walking aid device includes a support body inclusive of a plurality of support elements extending toward the ground. Each support element is coupled to a caster and a brake unit. Each brake unit has a clutching surface. The clutching surface controllably clutches a wheel of the caster or the ground to thereby generate friction for stopping the walking aid device.
Abstract:
An optical object positioning apparatus including an optical element, a light sensor and a processing unit and a positioning method thereof are provided. The optical element includes a first surface and a second surface opposite to each other and perpendicular to a first axis, and has at least two light-passing regions. Light beams from an object to be positioned pass through the light-passing regions from the first surface to the second surface. The light sensor and the optical element are spaced by a predetermined distance on a direction of the first axis. The light sensor senses the light beams from the light-passing regions to generate at least two light-sensing signals. A distance between the object and the optical element is positively correlated to the predetermined distance. The processing unit receives the light-sensing signals and positions the object according to the light-sensing signals and the predetermined distance.
Abstract:
An electronic seal includes a radio frequency identification apparatus, an antenna assembly and an impedance matching circuit. The radio frequency identification apparatus includes at least two radio frequency identification units each for providing a specific code for identification. The antenna assembly is electrically connected to the radio frequency identification units. The antenna assembly is used to receive an electromagnetic signal for identification to excite the radio frequency identification units to transmit the specific codes through the antenna assembly. The impedance matching circuit is provided between the radio frequency identification units and the antenna assembly for adjusting the impedance matching of the radio frequency identification units to the antenna assembly, thus adjusting excitation powers and feedback powers of the specific codes from the radio frequency identification units through the antenna assembly.
Abstract:
A light guide module of a scanning apparatus includes plural side-emitting light emitting diodes and a light-guiding post, which are disposed on a circuit board. The light-guiding post has plural reflective structures corresponding to respective side-emitting light emitting diodes for receiving light beams from respective side-emitting light emitting diodes. A spacing interval between two of the side-emitting light emitting diodes at a middle portion of the circuit board is greater than a spacing interval between two of the side-emitting light emitting diodes at a side of the circuit board.
Abstract:
A multi-secured RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) electronic seal includes a bolt, a bolt pedestal and a RFID system. The bolt has a male bolt portion with an electrical connecting point. The bolt pedestal has a female pedestal portion with several nodes to electrically connect with the electrical connecting point to provide plural selections of connecting and disconnecting. The RFID system includes a RFID chip and a transmission conductor embedded in the bolt, and an antenna installed on the bolt pedestal. When the bolt and the bolt pedestal is securely locked together, whether the RFID chip is electrically connects to the antenna depends on if the electrical connecting point connects a preset node, so that a RFID signal may be selectively transmitted by the RFID chip through the antenna.
Abstract:
A chip package structure is provided. The chip package structure comprises a first substrate, a second substrate and a plurality of chips. Therein, one of the chips is connected to the first substrate and electrically connected to the first substrate through a via hole of the first substrate. Thereby, the second substrate does not need the via hole for electrical connection of chips and thus, the surface thereof is adapted to remain intact to allow for the disposition of conductive balls throughout the surface.
