Publication number: 20240105089Abstract: Electronic displays and electronic devices including such electronic displays and antennas are provided for improved transmission of signals through circuitry of the electronic display. The electronic display may include multiple power supply tiles that are separated with non-conductive gaps to reduce circulation of eddy currents induced by the transmission signals. Moreover, voltage supply routing paths within the power supply tiles may be grouped to provide non-conductive gaps within the power supply tiles. Accordingly, the antenna may provide the transmission signals through the electronic display with improved efficiency based on reducing surface currents (e.g., eddy currents) on the electronic display.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 19, 2023Publication date: March 28, 2024Inventors: William Matthew Pender Paul, Mario Martinis, Jiayi Jin, Yongjie Jiang, Baris Posat, Mojtaba Fallahpour, Haitao Li, James G.

Patent number: 9401574Abstract: An information handling system power adapter removably couples with a multi-axis plug that rotates between storage, wall socket and power strip positions. The storage position rotates prongs that insert into a power socket so the prongs are retracted into the power adapter, rotates prongs to plug into a wall socket so that the power adapter aligns parallel to the wall having the wall socket, and rotates the prongs to plug into a power strip socket so that the power adapter aligns perpendicular to the power strip having the socket. The multi-axis plug inserts into a power cable receptacle of the power adapter so that an end user may selectively remove the multi-axis plug and insert a power cable that terminates at a plug to connect the power adapter with a power socket through the power cable.Type: GrantFiled: August 25, 2014Date of Patent: July 26, 2016Assignee: DELL PRODUCTS L.P.Inventors: Tsung-Cheng Liao, Wen-Yung Chang, Justin C.

Publication number: 20160070688Abstract: Annotation methods and systems for supporting the annotation of documents in the format of a rendering engine are provided. The annotation system allows for the adding of annotations to documents, the displaying of annotations over content of the documents, and the displaying of annotations in an annotation pane. To provide annotation support for a document, the annotation system augments the document with elements including an element with annotation engine code and elements to support the collecting and displaying of annotations. When the rendering engine renders the document, it executes the annotation engine code to effect the collecting and displaying of the annotations.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 5, 2014Publication date: March 10, 2016Inventors: James Yao, Yi Wan, Makoto Yamagishi, Yeongsu Han, Jerome Turner

Patent number: 8561730Abstract: A retaining assembly for a cylindrical member and support sleeve in the bore of a component of a DTH. The cylindrical member and support sleeve may, for example, be a foot valve assembly for insertion into a counter bore in a bit.

Patent number: 8056985Abstract: A vibratory milling machine has a vibratory housing confined to substantially linear reciprocating motion relative to a base, causing a tool carried by the housing to impact a mineral formation or other work piece substantially in a primary milling direction. The vibratory motion may be generated by two or more eccentrically-weighted rotors rotated by a common drive mechanism. The rotors may be arranged in pairs with the rotors of each pair rotating in opposite directions about parallel axes so that lateral oscillations cancel and longitudinal vibrations in the milling direction reinforce one another. In one embodiment, a hydrostatic fluid bearing is provided between the outer surface of each rotor and the housing.Type: GrantFiled: October 22, 2010Date of Patent: November 15, 2011Assignee: Longyear TM, Inc.Inventors: Jing James Yao, Robert Eugene Able, Louis E.
