The present invention discloses a semi rigid joint for flexibly joining various links/structures. The said semi rigid joint comprises plurality of joining elements wherein each said joining element supporting at one end at least one joining component and at its other end having a magnetic connector such that the two adjacent placed joining elements facing said respective magnetic connectors under magnetic attraction of respective magnetic connectors provide a magnetic joint to connect together the components carried at its other ends. A flexible spring means is also proved in cooperation with the magnetic joint to allow bending at said magnetic joint under any external impact/force exceeding the magnetic attraction of the magnets and on release of said external impact/force rejoining the joints under restored magnetic attraction.

A Stirling cycle machine with a liquid fuel/gaseous fuel burner. The burner may include a preheater to capture the thermal energy of the exhaust. The burner directs the preheated air to each burner head, where it enters a prechamber. Each burner head includes a fuel nozzle that directs liquid or gaseous fuel into the prechamber. The prechamber is fluidically connected to a combustion chamber via a prechamber nozzle that has a smaller opening than the prechamber. The burner head ignites the fuel air mixture in the prechamber with an ignitor located above or within the prechamber. The flame is initially lit as a diffusion flame in the prechamber. The flame is pushed out of the prechamber into the combustion chamber by an increased air flow rate. The liquid fuel from the nozzle now evaporates in the prechamber and forms a prevaporized flame in the combustion chamber.

The present invention provides a motion mechanism applied to an inward-folding flexible screen terminal, comprising an intermediate support structure, left and right support structures, and left and right movable support plates. The intermediate support structure is provided with a synchronous reverse rotation connecting mechanism. The left and right movable support plates are rotatably connected to the left and right support structures at the intermediate support structure, respectively. Rotation of the left and right movable support plates can be directly planned according to the relationship between gears and racks, and the gear indexing circle diameter can be increased in finite space by using virtual center design, so that the racks are driven to generate a larger sliding distance by rotating a small angle, i.e., sliding a chassis to increase the accommodating space of the screen closed state. Moreover, the effect of accurately controlling sliding is also achieved, and designing a certain transmission ratio by means of the principle of gear and rack transmission to realize the design of the rotation angle can produce the required sliding amount.

A flexure device comprising an interior flexure member having first and second interior flexible blades each formed with an interior end portion and separate interior body portions. An exterior flexure member can have first and second exterior flexible blades each formed with separate exterior end portions and an exterior body portion. The first interior end portion and the first exterior end portion form a first flexure end portion, the second interior portion and the second exterior portion form a second flexure end portion. The interior and exterior body portions are coupled to form a flexure body portion, such that the first interior and exterior flexible blades form a first flexure that facilitates rotation between the first flexure end portion and the flexure body portion. The second interior and exterior flexible blades form a second flexure that facilitates rotation between the second flexure end portion and the flexure body portion.

A movement mechanism applied to an inner-folding flexible screen terminal, comprising an intermediate support structure, the intermediate support structure being provided with a flexible screen support surface, a left-side rotation connection structure and a right-side rotation connection structure, a left-side connecting member and a right-side connecting member; inner ends of the left-side rotation connection structure and the right-side rotation connection structure are both rotatably connected to the intermediate support structure, the left-side connecting member and the right-side connecting member are respectively rotatably connected to outer ends of the left-side rotation connection structure and the right-side rotation connection structure, and the left-side connecting member and the right-side connecting member are respectively slidably connected to a left-side support frame and a right-side support frame. By means of the pressing of a pressing structure to the rotation structure, when a flexible screen mobile terminal is unfolded, the left and right casings can be prevented from rotating and shaking, and the unfolded state is stably maintained; and it is suitable for adopting multiple segments of rotation structures to cooperate with the pressing structure, thereby reducing the risk of getting stuck during rotation.
