| 20110186412 | TIMER - A timer includes a case, a shaft, a cam wheel, a drive mechanism, and a plurality of switch blades disposed within the case. The shaft is rotatably and reciprocally movably disposed in the case. The cam wheel is pivoted on the shaft and rotates together with the shaft when setting, or rotates independently by the drive mechanism. The cam wheel includes a plurality of cam tracks on one side surface thereof and a plurality of ratchets and grooves on a circular rim thereof. The drive mechanism contacts the ratchets to drive the cam wheel to rotate relative to the shaft. The switch blades respectively contact the cam tracks of the cam wheel, and correspondingly generate an electrical connection/disconnection. When the shaft moves to the setting position and the cam wheel being rotated by the user, a flexible element touches the grooves formed on the circular rim results a tactile feedback. | 08-04-2011 |
| 20090046540 | AUTOMATIC TIMING CONTROL DEVICE CASE - An automatic timing control device case which is used for accommodating a timing control rotation shaft and a plurality of switches. A motor is disposed on the case for driving a gear set connected to the timing control rotation shaft to rotate, thereby controlling on or off of the switches through the timing control rotation shaft. The automatic timing control device case includes a body and a gear box. The body has an accommodation space for accommodating the timing control rotation shaft and the plurality of switches. The gear box is integrally formed in the body for accommodating the gear set. The gear box has at least one through-hole communicating the gear box and the accommodation space, such that the gear set is connected to and drives the timing control rotation shaft. | 02-19-2009 |
| 20090038924 | AUTOMATIC TIMING SWITCH DEVICE - An automatic timing switch device includes a switch control wheel, a driving assembly, and a plurality of push switches. The switch control wheel includes a plurality of wheel-shaped structures stacked sequentially, wherein each of the wheel-shaped structures has at least one notch formed on an outer periphery of the switch control wheel, and the diameters of the wheel-shaped structures reduce sequentially so that the switch control wheel is in tapered shape. The driving assembly drives the switch control wheel to rotate. The push switches are switched by engaging into or separating from the notches of the wheel-shaped structures as the switch control wheel rotated by the driving assembly. Since the switch control wheel is in a tapered shape, so that the switch control wheel is easily to be formed monolithically and is convenient to be installed to the case of the automatic timing switch device. | 02-12-2009 |
