| 20100156791 | TEMPERATURE CONTROLLED MOUSE - A temperature controlled mouse includes a central controller, a driver control circuit, a temperature control circuit, and a signal transmitting circuit. The driver control circuit generates coordinate control signals and pointer clicking signals, and the signals are transmitted to a host computer coupled to the mouse via the signal transmitting circuit. The temperature control circuit detects the changes of the temperature from a user's hand and thereby generates temperature control signals. The central controller controls the operation status of the mouse according to the temperature control signals, wherein when the temperature detected is within a predetermined temperature range, the central controller wakes the mouse and allows the transmission of signals from the mouse to the host computer; otherwise the central controller stops the transmission of signals. The temperature controlled mouse prevents accidental activation due to negligent bump. Thereby the mouse may only wake from purposeful control and thereby conserves energy. | 06-24-2010 |
| 20100164388 | LUMINOUS SYSTEM AND METHOD WITH A CHANGEABLE COLOR LIGHT - A luminous system with a changeable color light applicable to an electronic device is provided. The system includes a light emitter for emitting a first light to outside of the electronic device, a color sensor for receiving a second light that is the reflection of the first light from an object and generating a RGB signal, and a central controller for receiving the RGB signal and generating a backlight color adjusting signal according to the RGB signal received. A backlight driver module of the device is further introduced to drive a backlight module to emit a third light according to the adjusting signal. The color of the third light is particularly the same as the second light. Thus the backlight color of the electronic device changes as what the color of the object is. The visual effect of the product can be alternative by providing this changeable color light. | 07-01-2010 |
| 20100182238 | INPUT DEVICE THAT ADJUSTS ITS OPERATION MODE ACCORDING TO ITS OPERATION DIRECTION AND A CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - An input device that adjusts its operation mode according to operation directions includes a movement sensing module, an operation direction control unit, a micro-control unit, and a transmission module. The movement sensing module for sensing a plurality of reflection images relative to a light source that is reflected by a reflection surface. Furthermore the movement sensing module obtains a movement displacement amount and a movement direction of the input device according to pattern variations between the reflection images. The operation direction control unit provides an operation direction of the movement sensing module. The micro-control unit converts the movement direction sensed by the movement sensing module according to the operation direction of the movement sensing module. The transmission module transmits the movement displacement amount and the converted movement direction of the input device to a host terminal so as to control a cursor displayed on the host terminal. | 07-22-2010 |
| 20110050577 | WIRELESS PERIPHERAL DEVICE AND PRODUCTION MATCHING SYSTEM THEREOF - Provided is a wireless peripheral device. Preferably the wireless peripheral device includes an operating main body and a receiver. The operating main body particularly has a controlling unit having built-in identification code. This identification code is particularly stored in a non-volatile memory of the controlling unit. The receiver, corresponding to the operating main body, pre-stores the matched identification code. The receiver acquires the power supplied from a computer system as connected therewith. Automatically, the operating main body and the receiver are wirelessly connected in accordance with the identification code. It is featured that the cost of the wireless peripheral device can be effectively reduced, and the related matching procedure can also be simplified before factory shipment. | 03-03-2011 |

| 20090133530 | ONE-WAY ACTUATOR - An actuator for providing functions of one-way actuation and shiftless rotation includes a main body, two rolling elements, and a recovery apparatus, in which an accommodating space is arranged in the main body and has two frictional faces corresponding to each other with a tapered distance between them. Initially, two rolling elements are arranged at one side of the accommodating space of a wider spacing distance and then make a rolling contact with two frictional faces respectively to be displaced toward a narrower side of the accommodating space through the recovery apparatus, so that an aforementioned one-way actuator is thus constructed. | 05-28-2009 |
| 20090205449 | STEPLESS UNIDIRECTIONAL ROTATION DEVICE - A stepless unidirectional rotation device includes a housing, a connecting component, a lower roller bearing, turntable assembly, a switching mechanism, a suppressing component and an upper roller bearing. The housing has a receiving room. The connecting component includes a shaft, and one end of the shaft extends out of the receiving room. The lower roller bearing is disposed in the receiving room and rolling contacts with the housing. The turntable assembly includes a rotating disc and a washer. The rotating disc includes a flat surface and an oblique surface. The switching mechanism is connected with the rotating disc. The suppressing component is disposed in the receiving room and is set around the shaft. The upper roller bearing is sandwiched between the washer and the suppressing component and rolling contacts with the suppressing component. Thus, the self-locking or loose problem can be avoided. | 08-20-2009 |
| 20090282936 | ONE-WAY ACTION MECHANISM - A one-way action mechanism capable of rotating steplessly includes a main body, a rotary element and a friction element. The main body is provided thereon with a pivotal hole and a recessed space in communication with the pivotal hole. One side of the recessed space away from the pivotal hole has a friction surface. The rotary element is formed into a circular ring and is pivotally connected in the pivotal hole. The outer periphery of the rotary element is formed by a plurality of teeth. The friction element is received in the recessed space and has a gear and a friction wheel covering the gear. The friction element is restricted by an elastic element, so that the friction wheel can be brought into a rotary and frictional contact with the friction surface. An intermediate gear is drivingly engaged between the rotary element and the gear of the friction element. | 11-19-2009 |
