| 20090252087 | Wireless-linked remote ecological environment monitoring system - A wireless-linked remote ecological environment monitoring system is proposed, which is characterized by the use of a sensor network such as WSN (wireless sensor network) installed at the remote site for collecting ecological data, and the use of a public wireless communication system such as GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) for transferring all the collected ecological data to a back-end host server unit where the ecological data are compiled into webpages for posting on a website. This feature allows the research/management personnel to browse the ecological data simply by linking a network workstation via a network system such as the Internet to the website, without having to travel to the remote site and collect ecological data by human labor. | 10-08-2009 |
| 20090252284 | MULTI-CHECKPOINT TYPE CLUSTERED ANIMAL COUNTING DEVICE - A multi-checkpoint type clustered animal counting device is proposed, which is capable of providing a counting function that can be used for statistically determining the number of animals (such as fruit flies) within a region such as farmland or garden. The proposed animal counting device is characterized by the utilized to at least two object sensors, wherein the first object sensor is disposed at a first checkpoint while the second object sensor is disposed at a second checkpoint, and wherein the first object sensor is initially set to power-on state while the second object sensor is initially set to power-off state and can be switched on only when the first object sensor is triggered. When the second object sensor is triggered, the counting operation will increase the output count number by one. This feature allows a more accurate result and can help save power consumption. | 10-08-2009 |

| 20090210605 | BRIDGE DEVICE FOR A DISK DRIVE - A bridge device for a disk drive has the I/O terminals to which an external automatic controlling apparatus is connected, so the external automatic controlling apparatus directly controls a disk tray of the disk drive to move in or move out without a computer. In addition, the bridge device also further has a computer connecting port, to which the external computer is connected. The computer controls operations of the disk drive. | 08-20-2009 |
| 20100169901 | Device and Method for Automatically Turning over a Disc - A device and a method for automatically turning over a disc relate to a guide rod provided with a movable member. The movable member is assembled to a rotating member via a pivot member in such a manner that the movable member can axially move along and radially rotate around the guide rod. The pivot member is disposed between the movable member and the rotating member and powered to rotate. The rotating member is provided with a disc-carrying device in a direction of its rotation around the pivot member for taking the disc. The pivot member drives the disc to rotate via the rotating member, so as to turn over the disc, so that the rotating member makes the disc slide down into the tray in an inclined manner. | 07-01-2010 |
| 20100319011 | Method for Transporting Discs, Disc Transporting Device and Drawer Type Disc Transporting Device Thereof - A method for transporting discs, A disc transporting device and a drawer type disc transporting device are disclosed. The disc transporting device comprises a lifting mechanism, a swing mechanism and a control element, wherein the lifting mechanism further comprises a clipper element, a drive element and a rotational connection element, the swing mechanism further comprises a corresponding connection element and a swing rotation element. The clipper element can grab at least one disc. The drive element is coupled with the clipper element and drives the lifting mechanism. The rotational connection element engages with the drive element; the corresponding connection element of the swing mechanism corresponds to the rotational connection element to enable the lifting mechanism going up/down along the swing mechanism. The control element engages with the swing rotation element of the swing mechanism to control the swing mechanism. Hence, the clipper element of the lifting mechanism grabs the disc and the drive element drives the lifting mechanism to go up and down. The control element controls the swing mechanism to swing the lifting mechanism. The lifting mechanism for holding the disc can go up/down. The grabbed disc is swung back and forth controlled by the swing mechanism. | 12-16-2010 |
