The CPU converts the RDS data into Open TMC protocol information, runs a navigation program to parse the Open TMC protocol information to obtain traffic information, and makes the display unit displays the traffic information. | 10-01-2009 |
20090242322 | DAMPER AND FIXING DEVICE USING THE SAME - The invention discloses a damper including a damping portion, a first pillar-shaped portion, a second pillar-shaped portion and a first block portion. The damping portion has a first end and a second end. The first pillar-shaped portion protrudes from the first end of the damping portion, and the second pillar-shaped portion protrudes from the second end of the damping portion. The first pillar-shaped portion has a third end away from the first end of the damping portion, and the first block portion protrudes from the third end. In the invention, the damper can fix a speaker to a base directly without screws. | 10-01-2009 |
20090198387 | PORTABLE COMPUTER AND METHOD FOR PREHEATING PORTABLE COMPUTER BEFORE BOOTING - The invention provides a portable computer. When a power input terminal of the portable computer is connected to a power source, a sensor senses the temperature of electronic components of the portable computer to provide a sensed temperature value. When the sensed temperature value is lower than a preset temperature value, a microprocessor controls an indication device to operate and controls the heating unit to heat the electronic components. When the sensed temperature value is higher than the preset temperature value, the microprocessor controls the indication device not to operate and controls the heating unit stop heating the electronic components. | 08-06-2009 |
20090195982 | ELECTRONIC APPARATUS AND FAN MODULE THEREOF - The invention discloses an electronic apparatus and a fan module thereof. The fan module includes a base, an impeller, a liquid container, an atomizing device and a cover. The impeller is provided in the base. The liquid container is placed at the center of the impeller, and the liquid container contains a liquid. The atomizing device is disposed on the liquid container, and the atomizing device can atomize the liquid to form a mist to spray in order to absorb the heat in the electronic apparatus. The cover covers the base and forms an air outlet with the base. Furthermore, the cover has an air inlet. When the impeller rotates, the blade of the impeller drives airflow mixed the heated mist to enter into the base through the air inlet of the cover, and to exit from the base through the air outlet. | 08-06-2009 |
20090195474 | DUAL-FEED PLANAR ANTENNA - The invention provides a dual-feed planar antenna including a first resonant portion, a second resonant portion, and a grounding portion. The first resonant portion provides a first radiation path and includes a first feed-in portion and a grounding end receiving a grounding level. The first feed-in portion receives a first antenna signal to transmit the first antenna signal to the first radiation path. The second resonant portion provides a second radiation path and a third radiation path and includes a second feed-in portion respectively receiving a second antenna signal and a third antenna signal to correspondingly transmit the second antenna signal and the third antenna signal to the second radiation path and the third radiation path. The grounding portion receives the grounding level and is disposed between the first and second resonant portions. The dual-feed planar antenna covers the communication bands for GSM850, GSM900, GPS, DCS, PCS, and UMTS. | 08-06-2009 |
20090194520 | DEVICE AND METHOD FOR KEEPING BATTERY PACK OF PORTABLE COMPUTER AT OPERABLE TEMPERATURE - A device for keeping battery pack of portable computer at operable temperature includes a battery pack for supplying power to the portable computer; a thermal sensor installed in the battery pack for sensing a battery temperature; a heating film installed tightly close to the battery pack; and a microprocessor connected to the thermal sensor for receiving the battery temperature sensed by the thermal sensor. When detecting the battery temperature is lower than a first predetermined temperature, the microprocessor enables the battery pack to connect to and supply power to the heating film for heating the battery pack. When detecting the battery temperature is higher than a second predetermined temperature, the microprocessor enables the battery pack to disconnect from the heating film. The first predetermined temperature is lower than a minimum operable temperature and the second predetermined temperature is higher than the first predetermined temperature. | 08-06-2009 |
20090185356 | BOARD ASSEMBLY - A board assembly adapted to cooperate with one of a first expansion card and a second expansion card having different sizes. The board assembly includes a board, a connector, a first securing unit, a second securing unit and a plurality of locking elements. The connector, the first securing unit and the second securing unit are disposed at the board. The first securing unit is closer to the connector than the second securing unit. One end of the expansion card is inserted into the connector, and another end of the expansion card is locked at the first securing unit or the second securing unit by the locking element. | 07-23-2009 |
