An endoscopy system including an insertion tube segment, a handle segment, at least one heat source, a heat pipe and a heat-conductive material is provided. The insertion tube segment has first and second end portions opposite to each other and is inserted in the handle segment. An inside of the insertion tube segment and an inside of the handle segment commonly have a connecting space. The at least one heat source is disposed in the first end portion. The heat pipe is disposed in the connecting space and at least extends from a portion of the connecting space of the insertion tube segment to a portion of the connecting space of the handle segment. The heat-conductive material is disposed between the at least one heat source and the first end portion, and the heat-conductive material is thermally coupled to the at least one heat source and the heat pipe, respectively.

Endoscopy system

An endoscope device and a cable assembly thereof are provided. The cable assembly includes a first substrate, a second substrate, and a wire. The first substrate includes a first body and a first solder pad disposed on the first body. The second substrate is correspondingly disposed on the first substrate and includes a second body, a second solder pad disposed on the second body and corresponding to the first solder pad, and an accommodating portion corresponding to the second solder pad. The wire includes a soldering portion disposed in the accommodating portion. The first solder pad and the second solder pad are coupled to each other by at least one of a first solder and a second solder, and the soldering portion and the second solder pad are coupled to each other by the first solder.

Endoscope device and cable assembly thereof

A dispensing container, mounted on a supporter, comprises a hollow body made of a flexible material for accommodating ear thermometer probe covers, where the hollow body has one end formed with an access opening for allowing a probe of an ear thermometer to insert into an upmost probe cover in the hollow body. Each of the probe covers has the open end provided with at least a flange that radially extends outward from the open end, where the hollow body has a substantially rectangular section that has major edges smaller than a diameter of the flange of one probe cover in length, so that when the probe covers are placed into the hollow body, each inner wall of the hollow body is deformed to tangent to the flanges of the probe covers, so as to keep the probe covers securely in the hollow body.

Dispensing container of probe covers and assembly thereof

The present invention is an ear thermometer cradle and an ear thermometer assembly. The ear thermometer cradle comprises a hollow housing, a swivel arm, a probe cover container seat, a first elastic member disposed between the swivel arm and the hollow house. The ear thermometer cradle comprises a second elastic member between the container seat and the hollow housing. The hollow housing has an opening and a first blocking portion. The swivel arm includes a first pivot on one end thereof for pivotally connected with the hollow housing, a bearing portion on the other end thereof, and a second blocking portion between the first pivot and the bearing portion. The container seat includes a connective device, a second pivot on two lateral sides thereof for pivotally connected with the hollow housing, a third blocking portion and a forth blocking portion engaging with the first and the second blocking portion respectively.

Ear thermometer cradle and assembly thereof

This invention relates to a shrinkable dispensing container for probe covers of an ear thermometer. Therein, the ear thermometer probe cover refers to a product having a hollow body and a flange. The dispensing container for probe covers of an ear thermometer comprises a main body for accommodating a plurality of stacked probe covers and an access opening formed at one end of the main body for allowing an ear thermometer probe to insert into the probe cover in the main body. The present invention is characterized by a bottom portion formed at another end of the main body opposite to the access opening for supporting all the probe covers stacked within the main body. The main body is primarily composed of a plurality of member portions wherein each of the member portions comprises at last a bending portion so that when the member portion receives a compressing force acting along a lengthwise direction thereof, the bending portion is bent and contracted accordingly, and thereby causes the main body to be shrunk along a lengthwise direction thereof. An abutting component is disposed in the main body adjacent to the access opening to abut against the annular flange of the probe cover for preventing the probe cover from falling when there is no force acting on the probe covers of an ear thermometer.

Shrinkable dispensing container for probe covers

The present invention provides a probe cover for an ear thermometer and a manufacturing method thereof. The probe cover is for sheathing a measuring probe of the ear thermometer, and an engaging means is provided at a bottom of the measuring probe. The probe cover comprises a main body of a hollow structure, an abutting segment and a base. Therein, the main body has an open end and a closed end opposite to the open end. An assembling direction extending from the open end toward the closed end is where the measuring probe is assembled along. Further, the main body has a diameter gradually reducing along the assembling direction. The closed end allows infrared rays to be received by the measuring probe to pass therethrough. Therein, the abutting segment is provided at the open end of the main body, and the base is annularly provided around a periphery of the abutting segment. The probe cover is characterized in being integrally formed, and having an annular shoulder provided at the abutting segment for accommodating the engaging means of the ear thermometer, as well as a plurality of separated protuberances, which are formed inwardly at a combining portion between the abutting segment and the base, for being engaged with the engaging means of the ear thermometer so that the probe cover can be firmly engaged with the measuring probe.

Probe cover for ear thermometer and manufacturing method thereof

This invention provides a scanner, which is capable of scanning document images based on a stepping control table and a method to generate such a table. This scanner includes a scanning module to scan a document and generates a responding image signal, a stepping motor to drive the scanning module or the document and a control device to control the operation of the scanning module and the stepping motor. This control device includes a stepping control table, which contains the stepping numbers for the stepping motor to drive the scanning module or the document. While scanning a document, this device will accurately control the stepping motor according to the stepping numbers relating to the locations of the lines to be scanned, and further move the scanning module or the document to a pre-defined position for a scanning task. A design like this will reduce errors in a scanning module's movement caused by the mechanical deviation.
