Filed:

Oct 4, 2001

Appl. No.:

09/971888

Inventors:

Ying Wen Luo - Alhambra CA

Assignee:

Zhuoye Lighter (USA) Ltd. - Alhambra CA

International Classification:

F23D 1136

US Classification:

431153, 431255

Abstract:

A piezoelectric lighter incorporates with a safety arrangement which includes is movably mounted on a casing in a vertical movable manner wherein a guiding slot is provided on top of the casing to communicate with an exterior thereof. A locking member includes a locking arm disposed in the ignition cavity and an operation button slidably mounted on an ignition button. A resilient element is adapted for applying an urging pressure against the locking arm so as to normally retain the locking arm in a locking position. In which, in the locking position, the locking arm blocks up the ignition button from ignition. In order to ignite the piezoelectric lighter, a users thumb must operate the operation button for moving the locking arm to an unlocking position. Then, the user is able to push the ignition button downwardly to ignite the piezoelectric lighter.

Inventors:

Ying Wen Luo - City of Industry CA, US
Xing Wen Luo - City of Industry CA, US

International Classification:

F23Q 2/16
F23D 11/36

US Classification:

431153, 431253, 431203

Abstract:

A lighting fixture lighter includes a frame body including a light transmitting window, a flame generator, and an illumination fixture built-in with the lighter for generating illumination light for illumination purpose. The illumination fixture includes a power source, a light source unit supported within a light compartment and aligning with the light transmitting window, and a light button to activate the light source unit for generating an illumination light, so that the illumination light is emitted out of the light transmitting window for illumination purpose. In order to enhance the light intensity of the light source unit, a light reflector is further provided within the light compartment for reflecting the illumination light from the light source unit, such that the lighter not only provides the traditional ignition function, but also provides an added on illumination function in the single compact lighter housing.

US Classification:

348 77, 382103, 348E05024

Abstract:

The invention relates to a robust method to control interactive media using gestures. A method of controlling a multimedia device, using face detection and (hot spot) motion, providing robust accuracy in issued commands, wherein the method involves the following steps: extracting a hot spot area using a current captured image (Ci), calculate and analyze the difference between the current captured image (Ci) and a previous captured image (Ci−1), resulting in Di, applying an erosion on the Di to remove small areas, applying extracted (hot spot) motion areas as masks to filter out non-hot spot area motion, add Di to build a motion image, find the largest x, y and the smallest x, y coordinates of all the detected motion connected components, denote each as Ix, Iy, sx and sy, and perform an algorithm to determine if a hand gesture represents a command to control a multimedia device.
