    摘要: A portable image capturing electronic device includes a main body, an image capturing lens assembly and a light source assembly. An accommodating chamber is disposed inside the main body. The accommodating chamber includes a top portion and a bottom portion disposed opposite to each other. The image capturing lens assembly is disposed on the top portion and faces toward the bottom portion to capture an image corresponding to an object disposed at the bottom portion. The light source assembly includes a plurality of first light sources. The light source assembly is disposed on the top portion, and the plurality of first light sources face toward the bottom portion to provide illumination for the object and are disposed nearby the image capturing lens assembly. The present application facilitates illumination control when capturing the image, which can effectively reduce errors in image processing.

    摘要: A switch is disclosed. In some examples, a switch includes a generally cylindrical housing; one or more sets of contact points enclosed by the housing; an indicator module, such as a multi-color LED illuminator, also enclosed by the housing; and a pushbutton actuator disposed to operate the contact points. The housing includes a display section spanning substantially the entire circumference of the housing such that the indication made by the indicator module is visible from all radial directions. When the pushbutton actuator is pressed, some of the contact points open to cut off power from hazards, while others are reconfigured to change the state of the indicator module to indicate the changed status of the switch. Multiple switches can be interfaced with each other, such as by serial connection, to facilitate multi-switch safety environment. Modular cables can be used to conveniently establish the interface.

    摘要: A hardware product for creating a light ring and a dead front effect. The product may include a housing with an opening. The hardware product may also include a button positioned within the opening and configured to be depressed by a user. The button is constructed using a two-part molding process and includes a first shot and a second shot. The first shot is configured to disperse light around the perimeter shape of the opening. The second shot is constructed from an optically opaque or semi-opaque material. A single light-emitting component electrically coupled to the circuit board provides light for creating the light ring.

    摘要: A middle illuminated button switch including a printed circuit board (PCB), a base and a cover. A guide core is arranged between the base and the cover, a through hole is arranged at the bottom of the base and under the guide core. A light guide groove is provided at the lower end surface of the guide core. A light-emitting element is arranged on the upper end of the PCB, and the light-emitting element is inserted into the base from the through hole and embedded in the light guide groove. Since the light-emitting element is embedded in the base from the bottom to the top, and the light is emitted to the outside from the middle through the guide core, so as to realize the light-emitting effect in the middle of the button.

    摘要: A control device for a bicycle is disposed on a handlebar and includes a body, an electronic module, at least one switch, and at least one input member. The body includes a plugged portion and a holding portion. The plugged portion is disposed inside the handlebar via an opening of the handlebar. The holding portion is connected to the plugged portion and is disposed outside the opening. The electronic module is disposed in the plugged portion and has at least one surface. The switch is disposed on the surface of the electronic module to selectively control the electronic module to send an electronic signal. The input member is disposed on the holding portion and extends into the plugged portion and moves in an operating direction to actuate the switch. The operating direction is not perpendicular to the surface and a longitudinal axis direction of the plugged portion.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for ranging finding of signal transmitting devices is provided. The method of signal reception is digitally based only and does not require receivers that are analog measurement devices. Ranging can be achieved using a single pulse emitting device operating in range spaced relation with a minimum of a single signal transmitter and a single digital receiver and processing circuitry. In general a plurality of transmitting pulsed emitters may be ranged and positioned virtually simultaneously in 3-dimensions (XYZ coordinates) using a configuration of a plurality of digital receivers arranged in any fixed 3-dimensional configuration. Applications may involve at least one single transmitter to receiver design to determine range, or at least one transmitted reflecting signal off from an object to determine range.

    摘要: A module cover comprising a through-hole for a passage of a key tappet of the key, a light injection region for injecting light from a light source into the module cover, a first light output region for outputting a first portion of the light, and a second light output region for outputting a second portion of the light out of the module cover. The first light output region and the second light output region, and a first light directing portion and a second light directing portion, are arranged on different sides of the through-hole. The first light directing portion directs a first portion of the light to the first light output region and a second portion of the light to the second light directing portion, and the second light directing portion directs at least part of the second portion of the light to the second light output region.

    摘要: This application relates to illuminated dome switches and a dome switch assembly having a first contact carried by a switch base and a dome shaped structure coupled to and supported by the switch base, the dome shaped structure comprising a material that is flexible and capable of internally transmitting visible light. The switch assembly can include a second contact coupled to the dome shaped structure and arranged opposite the first contact, and a light source configured to emit visible light, the light source in optical communication with the dome shaped structure such that at least some of the visible light emitted by the light source passes into the material and is subsequently emitted by the material in a generally uniform manner.
