Abstract:
A door lock includes a main body including a transmission assembly and a positioning assembly. The positioning assembly includes an inside seat and an outside seat. An inside rose liner is mounted around the inside seat and includes two positioning holes. An inside rose is mounted around the inside rose liner. An anti-torque ring is mounted around the outside seat and includes two lugs formed thereon. Two positioning posts respectively project from the lugs and extend along a longitudinal direction of the anti-torque ring. An outside rose liner includes an inner threading that is engaged with an outer threading of the outside seat. The outside rose liner includes a side with an annular recessed portion for receiving the anti-torque ring. The annular recessed portion includes two recess extensions for positioning the lugs of the anti-torque ring. An outside rose is securely mounted around the outside rose liner to rotate move therewith. Rotation of the outside rose causes longitudinal movement of the outside rose and the outside rose liner relative to the outside seat to suit different door thickness.
Abstract:
An outside handle assembly of a lock includes an outside lever handle, an outside handle spindle secured to the outside lever handle to rotate therewith and including a first slot defined in a periphery thereof, and an actuating spindle mounted in the outside handle spindle and operably connected to a retractor. The actuating spindle includes a second slot aligned with the first slot of the outside handle spindle. A catch is mounted in the actuating spindle and has a first end pivoted to the actuating spindle and a second end. A tapping plate is slidably mounted in the actuating spindle and connected to the tail piece to move therewith. When the lock is in an unlocked status, the outside handle spindle and the actuating spindle rotate synchronously, as the second end of the catch extends through the second slot of the actuating spindle into the first slot of the outside handle spindle. When the push button is pressed, the tapping plate is moved to engage with a hooked portion of the first end of the catch and thus pivots the catch during the sliding movement of the tapping plate. The second end of the catch is thus disengaged from the first slot of the outside handle spindle to allow free rotational movement of the outside lever handle.
Abstract:
A freewheeling clutching design for enabling a freewheeling movement of an outer door handle with respect to a latch assembly of a lock when the lock is in a locked state. A clutch column is axially movable to engage with or disengage from a latch assembly by way of turning a control member which simultaneously moves axially. The outer door-handle performs a normal operation of opening a door when the clutch column engages the latch assembly, while it performs the freewheel turning movement to prevent an undesirable transfer of force to internal components of the lock when the clutch column engages the latch assembly.
Abstract:
An auxiliary lock includes a cylinder which includes a tailpiece projected from one end thereof, a cylinder housing firmly receiving the cylinder therein and including a hollow protrusion projected from a shoulder thereof, a trim rotatably receiving the cylinder housing therein, a ring defining an opening at a center thereof and including a first flange extending around the opening and a second flange formed around a periphery of the ring at an opposite surface from which the first flange projects. The disk-like hollow protrusion is received in the opening of the ring, with the shoulder of the cylinder housing being in contact with the ring and an end portion of the trim being rotatably received in the second flange of the ring. A first engagement plate is engaged to a second engagement plate which is installed with a knob. The knob is engaged to the tailpiece of the cylinder and is manually controllable to rotate the tailpiece, which in turns rotates the cylinder to unlock or lock the auxiliary lock. The first engagement plate and the second engagement plate including the knob are installed in an inside surface of a door, while the cylinder, the cylinder housing, the trim, and the ring are installed on an outside surface of the door. The trim, when rotated by an external force, will rotate with respect to the ring but will not drive the cylinder to rotate.
Abstract:
A lock sub-assembly for a lock which is mainly situated at an exterior side of the lock. The lock sub-assembly comprises an exterior hub configured to rotate together with an exterior long handle and be fixed to an exterior side of a lock chassis, a handle spindle rotatably received within the exterior hub, a restricting block fixedly secured within the exterior hub, the restricting block disposed to. effectuate a limited turning movement of the handle spindle with respect to the exterior hub, an actuating spindle extending through both the restricting block and the handle spindle and having a roll-back portion adapted to operate a retractor, and a mechanism for releasably coupling the actuating spindle to the handle spindle. With this construction, when the actuating spindle and the handle spindle are not rotatably coupled together, the exterior long handle together with the handle spindle performs such a turning movement that no other constituting elements are affected thereby.
Abstract:
An array of universal processing elements (UPEs) may be interconnected through a switching matrix in response to control words which are in turn produced by a programmed digital computer in response to commands from a keyboard or a data file, thereby routing the outputs of selected UPEs to other UPEs for further processing and/or combining a sound stream in digital form. The matrix is comprised of both local and global conductors, the local ones being available to selected groups of UPEs. Each UPE is implemented as a digital multiplier, preferably with pipelining, and each UPE is comprised of a plurality of stages, preferably implemented with an adder for computing the sum of a plus the Boolean logic function [b.multidot.m+d.multidot.m] and a multiplexer for forming the function [b.multidot.+d.multidot.m], where a, b, d and m are bits of the respective two's complement number A, B, D and M, whereby the entire array of stages in a UPE computes A+[B.times.M+D.times.(1-M)].
Abstract:
An anti-sticking conveyor belt of a frying machine includes a first transmission axle and a second transmission axle oppositely disposed, two chains, a plurality of connecting rods and a plurality of conveyor strips. Each conveyor strips is made of a high temperature resistant and anti-sticking material, and includes a conveyor belt surface for conveying fried products, a conveyor lower surface away from each conveyor belt surface, and a channel provided outwards between each conveyor belt surface and each conveyor lower surface. As each conveyor belt surface is greater than each conveyor lower surface and with cooperation of the chains, leveled progressing of the conveyor strips is maintained. At arched positions of the first transmission axle and the second transmission axle, the conveyor lower surfaces do not come into contact with one another, and the conveyor belt surfaces arranged are small to obtain an even and flat conveying plane.

Abstract:
A power supply uses a power converter to generate a regulated voltage by referencing to a first DC voltage, a low dropout (LDO) regulator to generate an output voltage from the regulated voltage by referencing to a second DC voltage, and a reference voltage generator to dynamically adjust the first DC voltage according to the input voltage and the control voltage of the output transistor of the LDO regulator. The dropout voltage of the LDO regulator can be minimized to maintain the high efficiency of the power supply at different loading or selected output voltages.
Abstract:
An LED driver includes a power converter to convert an input voltage to a regulated voltage, a current source to be connected with an LED string in series between the power converter and a bias node, and a switching circuit to apply a bias voltage to the bias node to set the total voltage drop of the LED string and the current source. By controlling the total voltage drop of the LED string and the current source, the LED driver will automatically select a boost mode or a buck mode for operation, thereby improving the efficiency thereof.
