Described herein are apparatuses and methods for confocal 3D scanning. The apparatus can comprise a spatial pattern disposed on a transparent base and a light source configured to provide illumination to the spatial pattern and an optical system comprising projection / imaging optics having one or more lenses and an optical axis. The projecting / imaging optics may be scanned to provide depth scanning by moving along the optical axis.

Provided are a pitch actuator for a wind turbine generator and a wind turbine generator that can be prevented from losing their reliability. Provided are a cylinder (12) and a rod (13) that rotate a wind turbine rotor blade about an axis thereof relative to a rotor head to change a pitch angle; a cylinder bearing (14, 15) supporting the cylinder (12) so as to be rotatable relative to the rotor head about a first rotation axis (L1) extending substantially parallel to the axis of the wind turbine rotor blade and about a second rotation axis (L2) extending in a direction crossing both the first rotation axis (L1) and the axis of the cylinder (12) and the rod (13); and a rod bearing (16) rotatably supporting an end of the rod (13) on an end surface of the wind turbine rotor blade.

A disclosed method of manufacturing a camera module includes providing a stack of optical elements, providing an integrated circuit image capture device (ICD) having a top surface with an array of sensors, rigidly attaching the stack of optical elements to top surface of the image capture device, providing a substrate having an opening therethrough and a recess around said opening, and attaching the image capture device to the substrate such that edges of the image capture device are disposed in the recess and the stack of optical elements extends through the opening. The method further includes providing a second substrate (e.g., host PCB) and mounting the substrate on the second substrate to attach the camera module to the host device. Optionally, the substrate is mounted to the second substrate via a reflow solder process.

A zero backlash planetary gear train, comprising: a shell, a planetary gear set, and at least a sun gear set. Planetary gear set is disposed in said shell, and includes a planetary arm rack having output axis, such that planetary arm rack in said shell is provided with a plurality of double-layer planetary gears. The planetary gear set includes a first planetary gear and a second planetary gear. A buffer mechanism is provided between first planetary gear and second planetary gear. Said first planetary gear is engaged with at least an internal gear on an inner rim of shell, and second planetary gear is engaged with at least a sun gear set. Sun gear set is provided with a sun gear connected to a driving motor. Said zero backlash planetary gear train is capable of eliminating backlash between gears.

An optical pickup guiding structure for an optical disk drive is provided. The optical pickup guiding structure comprises a pickup base with a pickup window formed therein, and an optical pickup that is provided in the pickup window and that includes at least one end movably supported by a molded structure integrally formed on the pickup base. The end of the optical pickup and a molded structure for movably supporting the end of the optical pickup are formed with a guide channel and a guide rib, respectively, which are complementary to each other, thereby guiding the optical pickup. Because the number of parts of the optical disk chive is minimized, and the change in the installation state of the optical pickup is minimized during use, the operational reliability is improved.

A touch pad module suitable for assembling in a casing of an electronic device is provided. The touch pad module includes a switch, a triggering element, a fixing element and an elastic element. The switch is disposed in the casing. The triggering element is disposed in the casing and corresponds to the switch. The fixing element fixes the triggering element to the casing. The elastic element is leaned between the casing and the triggering element, and the elastic element permanently drives the triggering element lean against the fixing element. The touch pad module is subjected to an external force to make the triggering element and switch to lean against each other, and compress the elastic element. An electronic device including a casing and a touch pad module assembled in the casing is also provided.

A lens actuating unit is provided. The lens actuating unit includes: a bobbin configured to accommodate a lens module at an inner side of the bobbin; a first coil unit disposed at the bobbin; a housing disposed at an outer side of the bobbin; and a magnet unit configured to move the first coil unit through electromagnetic interaction with the first coil unit, wherein the housing includes a hole formed by being recessed from an inner side to an outer side to accommodate the magnet unit.

A steering column assembly includes a light switch and a wiper switch assembled to a column tube of a column shaft via an assembly bracket. The assembly bracket includes a body, to which the light switch and the wiper switch are coupled, and a coupling section, to which a top portion of the column tube is fixed. With the assembly, the light switch and the wiper switch can be easily and closely assembled to the column. Also, the assembly tolerance between the column and the assembly bracket can be minimized.

A connection unit of the present invention includes: a rail member extending in a direction where a plurality of storage elements is aligned; and a plurality of bus bar units each including an engagement portion movable along the rail member in the predetermined direction, and a bus bar fixed to electrode terminals of the storage elements adjacent to each other in the predetermined direction and connected to the engagement portion. The plurality of bus bar units engages with the rail member so as to be aligned in the predetermined direction, and the bus bar units adjacent to each other are provided so as to be movable independently along the predetermined direction. Entire assembly tolerance in the plurality of storage elements aligned in the predetermined direction can be absorbed (permitted) by adjusting distances between the independent bus bar units, thereby making it possible to easily assemble the plurality of bus bars.

A keyboard includes a base plate, a hook structure, and a plastic engaging member. The base plate has a top surface. The hook structure is connected to the base plate and raised relative to the top surface. The plastic engaging member is located on the top surface and fixed to at least a part of the hook structure.
