USPTO 專利案Ramer

專利案Ramer (US 2014/0252961)之分析
根據專利案Ramer之圖1~2,4,7~9、摘要及說明書第21~110137所述內容可知,此專利案Ramer揭露了一種具有感測器的發光裝置(Exemplary lighting devices have sensors)。其中,專利案Ramer具有第一及第二感測器,並以第一感測器感測第一情況以及第二感測器感測第二情況,藉此發光裝置根據第一情況或第二情況以進行發光作業
更進一步來說,專利案Ramer的請求項4已公開「a sensor for detecting temperature of one or more components of the lighting device, a feedback light sensor for detecting intensity or other characteristic of light produced by the lighting device, an occupancy sensor for detecting a condition indicative of occupancy of a region to be illuminated by the lighting device and an ambient light sensor for detecting ambient light near the lighting device.」。以及專利案Ramer的請求項9已公開「the sensor is a type of sensor selected from the group consisting of: a fire detector, a smoke detector, an airborne chemical detector, an airborne biological agent detector, a carbon monoxide sensor, an air temperature sensor, an air pressure detector, a humidity sensor, a moisture detector, an air speed detector, and a micro-electro-mechanical system type sensor.」也就是說,專利案Ramer已公開偵測環境亮度的感測器及偵測佔有的感測器。

 

然而,專利案Ramer並未公開dusk-dawn modelifestyle mode且專利案Ramer並未公開「and upon the timer ending count the lighting device is then converted to a motion sensor activated illumination, in which the lighting device is normally at a standby status with non or low-power illumination and is switched to illuminate with full power for a short time interval only when the body motion is detected by the motion sensor; wherein the lifestyle mode ends at daybreak when the lighting device is turned off by the photo sensor, and the microcontroller is reset to enter the next operating cycle」之技術特徵。

關於區別:
執行lifestyle mode時,其中於光伏感測器感測到黑夜時,發光裝置自動發光一計時時段,並於計時器停止計時時,發光裝置轉換為移動感測器來感測發光。且發光裝置係處於待命狀態,待命狀態係指發光裝置處於低功耗並於移動感測器感測到物體時,發光裝置可瞬間啟動照明光。然而,專利案Ramer並未公開上述技術特徵。尤其是,「透過光伏感測器感測光亮度以自動啟動發光,並由計時器計時停止後,再轉換為移動感測器來感測移動物動來發光」之技術特徵,並未被專利案Ramer所揭露
簡單來說,專利案Ramer僅公開根據不同感測器的感測訊號以輸出不同的發光亮度,例如根據發光裝置的溫度或是如地震等外力,而使發光裝置輸出不同的發光亮度。
此外,專利案Ramer並未公開任何時點設定、固定時點設定以及固定時段設定等技術特徵。例如專利案Ramer並未公開固定時點設定中的「可程式化的計時器可根據季節時效以移動夜晚時間,以使發光裝置與季節夜晚時間同步並調整發光時間」之技術特徵
