  • Patent number: 11356614
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a body and an image capturing assembly mounted on the body. The image capturing assembly comprising an imaging device and a device control assembly coupled to the imaging device to control a movement of the imaging device along a central axis of the image capturing assembly to allow the imaging device to be positioned at multiple positions along the central axis of the image capturing assembly. The device control assembly includes a first guide member, a second guide member rotatably disposed within the first guide member, and an inner body movably disposed within the second guide member. In response to a rotational motion of the second guide member with respect to the first guide member, the inner body is to move in axial direction with respect to the second guide member to move the imaging device along the central axis of the image capturing assembly.

  • Publication number: 20220149552
    Abstract: A board to board connector includes a first male connector and a second male connector. The first male connector includes a first number of pins. The second male connector is aligned with the first male connector and includes a second number of pins. The first male connector is configured to be removably electrically coupled to a first female connector including a third number of pins equal to the first number and the second male connector is configured to be removably electrically coupled to a second female connector including a fourth number of pins equal to the second number. The first male connector and the second male connector are also configured to be removably electrically coupled to a single third female connector including a fifth number of pins equal to the first number plus the second number.

  • Patent number: 10495138
    Abstract: Examples disclosed herein relate to a hinge assembly with a compressible sleeve. In one example, a base member is coupled to an upright member via a hinge assembly. In an example, the hinge assembly include a first securing member, a second securing member including a shaft coupled to the first securing member; a compressible sleeve to engage the shaft, and a spring coupled to the first securing member. In an example, the spring is to engage the compressible sleeve and apply a compressive force on the sleeve in response to a rotational movement of the hinge assembly in a first direction and reduce a compressive force when the hinge assembly is rotated in a second direction.

  • Publication number: 20090302527
    Abstract: A paper feeding method for a printer is provided. The method includes the steps of: feeding a paper for printing a first side of the paper; lifting an up-feeding cap and feeding the paper to a place between the up-feeding cap and a feed roller when the first side of the paper is finished printing; laying down the up-feeding cap after a predetermined duration; and reversing the paper for printing the other side of the paper. The method is suitable for two-side printing and capable of avoiding paper jam or paper damage due to paper distortion by ink.
