Abstract:
A method and apparatus for replacing two separate photo detectors chips and two photo emitters by a single photo detector chip and a single photo emitter. This is achieved by using CombiDisks having a flexible shaft. The flexible section allows for the bending of the CombiDisks so that the encoder disks are next to each other and tangent to the same vertical plane. This allows for the placement of both the x and the y sensors in a single plane. This will in turn allow for the two photo detectors to be integrated in a single semiconductor chip, saving a separate photo detector chip, and its associated packaging. This additional savings is significant since the packaging itself contributes to approximately one half of the cost of such a detector.
Abstract:
A tool organizing device includes a housing having two side walls, a rear wall, a bottom wall, a front opening, and a peripheral fence extended from an upper wall for forming a compartment in the peripheral fence for receiving tool members, and having a number of rails for slidably attaching drawers, and having a number of apertures formed in the side walls for hooking tool members, a tray is selectively and detachably attached to the bottom wall with four posts and includes a peripheral fence extended upwardly from a board for forming a compartment above the board and within the peripheral fence and for receiving tool members, a panel is selectively attached to the housing for hooking tool members.
