    Abstract: A slim-type gas transportation device includes a slim-type gas pump and a slim-type valve structure. The slim-type valve structure includes a first thin plate, a valve frame, a valve plate and a second thin plate. The first thin plate has a hollow portion. The valve plate is disposed within an accommodation space of the valve frame. The valve plate includes a valve opening. The valve opening is not aligned with the hollow portion. The second thin plate includes a gas outlet surface, a pressure relief surface, a gas outlet groove, an outlet aperture, a pressure relief hole and a pressure relief trench. The outlet aperture is hollowed out from the gas outlet groove to the pressure relief surface and corresponding in position to the valve opening. The pressure relief hole is spaced apart from the gas outlet groove. The pressure relief trench is concavely formed from the pressure relief surface.

    Abstract: A micro piezoelectric pump module includes a microprocessor, a driving element, and a piezoelectric pump. The driving element is connected to the microprocessor to receive a modulating signal and a control signal and to output a driving signal. The driving signal includes a driving voltage and a driving frequency. The piezoelectric pump is actuated by the driving signal, and the piezoelectric pump is set to be actuated at an actuation frequency and be applied with an actuation voltage value. The microprocessor drives the driving element to output the driving voltage having an initial voltage value at the driving frequency to the piezoelectric pump, and adjusts the driving frequency to the same with the actuation frequency. After the driving frequency is adjusted to reach the actuation frequency, the microprocessor drives the driving element to gradually increase the initial voltage value to reach the actuation voltage value.

    Abstract: A fluid control device includes a piezoelectric actuator and a deformable substrate. The piezoelectric actuator includes a piezoelectric element and a vibration plate. The piezoelectric element is attached on a first surface of the vibration plate. The piezoelectric element is subjected to deformation in response to an applied voltage. The vibration plate is subjected to a curvy vibration in response to the deformation of the piezoelectric element. A bulge is formed on a second surface of the vibration plate. The deformable substrate includes a flexible plate and a communication plate, which are stacked on each other. Consequently, a synchronously-deformed structure is defined by the flexible plate and the communication plate collaboratively, and there is a specified depth maintained between the flexible plate and the bulge of the vibration plate. The flexible plate includes a movable part corresponding to the bulge of the vibration plate.

    Abstract: A portable electronic device includes a casing and an actuating and sensing module. The casing includes at least one inlet aperture, at least one vent aperture, a first chamber, a second chamber and at least one communication channel. The communication channel is connected between the first chamber and the second chamber. The actuating and sensing module includes an actuating device and a sensor. The actuating device is disposed within the first chamber and closes the inlet aperture. The actuating device further includes a first protective film. The sensor is disposed within the second chamber. When the actuating device is enabled, a gas is guided into the first chamber through the inlet aperture, and the gas is transferred to the second chamber through the communication channel so as to be monitored by the sensor. After the gas is monitored, the gas is outputted from the vent aperture.
