Patent number: 8113668Abstract: A portable material exhibiting apparatus comprises a base assembly having a pivoting base, the pivoting base being disposed on one side of the base assembly; a retractable rod assembly having one end pivoting to the pivoting base; and an image capturing module having one end pivoting to the other end of the retractable rod assembly. Therefore, when carrying the portable material exhibiting apparatus, the image capturing module may rotate to be parallel with the retractable rod assembly. The retractable rod assembly may shorten its length and rotate to be parallel with the base assembly. Via this arrangement, the spaced occupied by the portable material exhibiting apparatus is reduced greatly.Type: GrantFiled: March 18, 2009Date of Patent: February 14, 2012Assignee: Dexin CorporationInventor: Cheng-Cheng Wu

Patent number: 5426892Abstract: A sliding element slidable on trolleys along a rail comprises a swing door swivellably suspended on a top frame strip and having, in a bottom frame strip (6') an anchoring device having a hinge stud (16) which can be lowered to engage with a receiving bush rotatably anchored in the floor. The hinge stud (16) is formed on a wedge-shaped hinge part (17) of metal which is guided for vertical sliding on a guide section (18) in the bottom frame strip (6') and engages slidably along a slide section (19) with a matching section (22) of a likewise wedge-shaped lowering part (23) of plastics material. Said lowering part is provided, in a recess (24), with a driving nut (25) which engages through a self-locking thread connection with a lowering bolt (27) which is positively connected by way of a bevel gear unit (29) to an operating pin (30) suitable for engagement of a hexagon socket key. A torque-limiting claw clutch may be inserted between the bevel gear unit ( 29) and the lowering bolt (27).Type: GrantFiled: September 1, 1993Date of Patent: June 27, 1995Inventors: Karl Haab, Otto Haab

Patent number: 4222201Abstract: A structural panel, such as a window or door sash which is mounted for horizontal sliding movement between a pair of tracks forming its frame and which is pivotable about a vertical axis extending through a pair of apertures in the tracks. The sash is supported for movement along the tracks by respective carriers located adjacent each corner of the sash. The sash includes releasable locking means located within one stile and a pair of pivot assemblies located in the other stile. Each pivot assembly includes a rod which is extendable vertically through an aligned carrier and into the aperture in the associated track. The carrier into which the rods extend includes a rotatable mount to enable the sash to be pivoted out of the frame when the releasable locking means is released.Type: GrantFiled: November 6, 1978Date of Patent: September 16, 1980Assignee: Air Master CorporationInventor: Silvio F.
