Abstract: Example implementations relate to docking stations including cradles. In some examples, a docking station can include a housing including a cradle defining a cavity, the cavity having a width and a depth sufficient to prevent an electronic device coupled to the docking station from decoupling from the docking station responsive to a torque applied on the electronic device, an engagement member to couple to the electronic device when received in the cradle, and a docking connector to transfer data between the docking station and the electronic device when the electronic device is coupled to the docking station.

Abstract: Examples of retaining apparatus for computing units are described. In an example, a retaining apparatus comprises a strap to body-mount a computing unit on a user. Further, the retaining apparatus comprises a connector integrated with the strap. The connector is to communicatively couple the computing unit to a peripheral device.

Abstract: An example balancing structure includes a stand and a balancing structure. The stand is to support the object to stand on a plane, and adjust a position of the object. The balancing structure is installed on a base of the stand and is to balance a tipping force of the base suffered from an adjustment of the position of the object.

Abstract: The heat transfer device at least comprises: an evaporator, a heat conductor and a connecting pipe. The evaporator comprises: a first hollow tube; a porous core mortised inside the first hollow tube; and a second hollow tube mortised on the first hollow tube. The heat conductor 220 covers the evaporator. The heat conductor is on the heating device. The connecting pipe is connected to first and second hollow tubes. The connecting pipe is used for containing a working fluid. The condenser is on the connecting pipe. The porous core, the first and second hollow tube, and the heat conductor are mortised together so as to simplify the manufacturing process, and reduce the cost. Further, the evaporator is tightly covered and fixed by the heat conductor so that the heat generated by the heating device can be uniformly conducted to the evaporator to enhance the heat conductivity.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a heat transfer device is described. The method includes: mortising a porous core into a first hollow tube; mortising a second hollow tube on the first hollow tube; covering a heat conductor on the first hollow tube; and connecting a connecting pipe to the first hollow tube and the second hollow tube.

Abstract: A support arm is connected a main body and an open/closed body. An opening is disposed on the main body. The open/closed body is pivoted to the main body in a foldable manner. The support arm includes a connecting part connected to the open/closed body, and a wedge part connected to the connecting part. A notch is formed inside the wedge part, and a first side of the wedge part is a camber. When the wedge part wedges in the opening with different sections on the camber, the wedge part deforms at different deformations so as to hold the open/closed body in different positions relatively to the main body.

Abstract: An offset slider crank mechanism is connected a main body and an open/closed body. The open/closed body is pivoted to the main body in a foldable manner. A slot is disposed on the main body. A width between a first end of the slot and a second end of the slot is increasing. The offset slider crank mechanism includes a crank. A first end of the crank is connected to the open/closed body in a rotatable manner. The offset slider crank mechanism further includes a slider connected to a second end of the crank and set inside the slot in a slidable manner. When the slider engages at the first end of the slot, the slider deforms at a first deformation. When the slider engages at the second end of the slot, the slider deforms at a second deformation. The first deformation is greater than the second deformation.

Abstract: An ink storage module includes a base, a clamping structure, a pipeline, and a blotting structure. The clamping structure is connected to the base to create a monolithic structure. The clamping structure has at least one ink outlet. An end of the pipeline is connected to a pump for receiving remnant ink pumped by the pump, and another end of the pipeline is connected to the clamping structure in a detachable manner for conveying the remnant ink into the clamping structure. The blotting structure is installed on the base and is disposed at a side of the ink outlet for absorbing the remnant ink.

Abstract: In an auto sheet feeder, a flexible element is disposed monolithically at one end of a pick shaft, the flexible element capable of moving close to or away from the center of a ratchet. A fluctuation section of the flexible element comprises a pawl for engaging with an inner tooth of the ratchet, allowing the ratchet for one-way rotating the pick shaft. A clutch pushes a pin of the flexible element and disengages the flexible element with the ratchet.
