A light switch cover assembly easily mounted over existing wall type light switches. The cover assembly includes a mounting bracket having an opening provided therethrough which is shapely designed and sizably configured for snug attachment of a bracket plate therein. The bracket plate includes an opening to allow the protruding rocker portion of a light switch to pass therethrough. The bracket plate further includes a plurality of apertures defined therethrough for receipt of mounting screws. A face plate is adapted for removable attachment to the mounting bracket in a snap-fit manner. The face plate includes an opening shapely designed and sizably configured to snugly accommodate a rocker plate therein. The face plate further includes an oblong opening providing a thermometer support enclosure within which a thermometer is swivelably secured.

A distribution density of supports and the spacing therebetween are adjusted to improve a restorability of a light-reflection electrode of a color-changeable pixel. When the spacing between the supports is decreased or the distribution density thereof is increased, a tension per unit area of the light-reflection electrode is raised. If an external force is applied to the light-reflection electrode, the tension caused by the supports will counteract the force and allow the light-reflection electrode to successfully return to the original state after the external force is removed.

A portable computing device is equipped with multiple display panels. The display panels and hinged, jointed or otherwise disposed to rotate or slide with respect to one another in a transition from a compact configuration to an expanded configuration. In a basic embodiment three output screens take a form of a triptych for which an input panel forms a base. The output panels are deployed with a bend when opened and images angled in towards an observer. The display panels comprise a main panel and two auxiliary panels. In a variation a forth display panel is rotatably or foldably joined to the central display panel so that a total of four display panels may be deployed in a hub and petal configuration. The side panels may be eliminated from the four panel embodiment so that the input panel and two remaining display panels form a vertically orientable triptych with the input panel serving as base.

The invention relates to a panel element for forming a floor covering, consisting of several identical interconnectable panel elements and having the following features: two first sides of each panel element, called the “longitudinal sides”, these sides having a groove and a tongue; the tongue of a panel element which is positioned at an angle with an installation level of a first, identical panel element can be introduced into the groove of the first panel element; the tongue interacts with the groove of the adjacent, identical panel element in such a way that two interconnected panel elements are protected against separating forces which are exerted along both of the axes extending perpendicularly to the longitudinal side of the panel elements; two second sides of the panel element, called the end sides, are provided with fixing means and a groove and tongue, these forming an end-side connection between two adjacent panel elements; the end-side grooves and tongue can be interconnected by means of the panel element being lowered onto an identical panel element that has already been installed, essentially crosswise to the installation level, so that the panel element is protected from lifting forces, i.e. forces which are exerted considerably perpendicularly to the installation level.

A shower head for adjusting distribution of a reactant gas in a process region of a semiconductor manufacturing reaction chamber, wherein a top plate has a gas port for introducing the reactant gas into the reaction chamber; a face plate, having through holes, disposed opposite the process region; a first baffle plate, having through holes, disposed between the top plate and the face plate and capable of moving up or down, wherein the first baffle plate has a top surface that defines a first gap for forming a first lateral flow passage; a second baffle plate, having through holes, disposed between the first baffle plate and the face plate and capable of moving up or down, wherein the second baffle plate has a top surface that defines a second gap for forming a second lateral flow passage; and a gap controller for determining widths of the first and second gaps.

The preferred embodiments of the present invention include an optical splitter module having connectorized pigtails that are stored on the bulkhead faceplate of the module. The module includes an optical splitter output harness, for example, a ribbon cable assembly attached to the bulkhead with rugged strain relief mechanism. The ribbon harness is converted to individual pigtails with connectors which are stored on adapter receptacles on the faceplate. Adapter receptacles used may optionally be half receptacles when storage is the only desired function or may be full receptacles when access to the pigtail ferrule tip is required. Access to the ferrule tip may be required for attaching fiber optic terminators to eliminate undesirable reflections caused by unterminated connectors. The module provides an administrative location for splitter outputs prior to being connected individually into service. The module also provides an administrative storage location for splitter outputs taken out of service as a temporary staging area before being reassigned and connected individually into service again.

Providing a camera housing which is suitably used to house a camera with a liquid crystal monitor having a touch panel and is capable of preventing the touch panel from being broken. The camera housing includes, an external operation unit provided outside the camera housing, a contact member provided inside the camera housing for operating the touch panel by contacting the touch panel, and an elastic member provided between the external operation unit and the contact member for transmitting pressing force which is applied on the external operation unit to the contact member.

An array substrate 12 is formed with pixel electrodes 14 in the form of a matrix. The pixel electrode 14 is connected to a thin film transistor 155. The thin film transistor 155 is formed with a light shielding film 152 consisting of resin for preventing an entry of light into the thin film transistor 155. A polymer dispersion liquid crystal layer 21 is interposed between a counter electrode 25 and the pixel electrode 14. A substrate 11 is formed with a color filter 151 having red (R), green (G), and blue (B). The color filter 151 is formed from dielectric multilayer film or organic material. The counter electrode 25 is formed above the color filter 155, and the counter electrode 25 and the liquid crystal layer 21 are bonded together by an adhesive layer 371.

Floor panels are shown, which are provided with a mechanical locking system on long and short edges allowing installation with vertical snap folding that could be accomplished automatically without tools and where the short edge locking system has a tongue made in one piece with the panel.

A shock-absorbing golf club head has a head body, a faceplate and a shock-absorbing core. The head body has a crown, a sole, a toe, a shank, a rear, an open front, a core cavity and an air outlet. The open front has an inner shoulder. The core cavity is defined in the head body and communicates with the open front. The air outlet is defined through the head body, and communicates with the core cavity. The faceplate is mounted securely on the inner shoulder of the open front of the head body. The shock-absorbing core is mounted in the core cavity. The air in the core cavity is discharged to the ambient atmosphere through the air outlet when a foaming agent serving as the shock-absorbing core foams inside the core cavity.
