  • Patent number: 8537058
    Abstract: An antenna assembly includes a slide mechanism, a chassis, and an antenna. The slide mechanism includes a fixed plate and a slide plate slidably mounted on the fixed plate. The chassis is mounted on the slide plate. The antenna is mounted on the chassis. The antenna is contained between the fixed plate and the slide plate when the slide mechanism is retracted, and exposed when the slide mechanism is extended.

  • Patent number: 8270159
    Abstract: A portable electronic device includes an electronic paper, a case, a guiding mechanism, an assembling mechanism, a mobile communication module, a first support structure and a second support structure. The guiding mechanism is disposed in the case to form a guiding space. The assembling mechanism is disposed in the guiding mechanism. The assembling mechanism includes a flexible connecting part and a driving part. The driving part is connected to the electronic paper and the flexible connecting part for rolling the flexible connecting part to contain the electronic paper in the guiding space. The first and second support structures are pivoted to two ends of the case respectively and form a support rail. A connecting socket on the first support structure is electrically connected to the mobile communication module. The electronic paper moves along the support rail to connect to the connecting socket upon the stretching state.

  • Publication number: 20090257203
    Abstract: A mobile communication device with replaceable function modules includes a main body and an externally connected device. The main body serves as a central member, and has a main hybrid joint including an electrical contact and a magnetic joint. The main hybrid joint of the main body is joined to a device hybrid joint of the externally connected device, so as to realize the function thereof. When joined together, the main body activates a functional module of the externally connected device functional module. In addition, the main body and the externally connected device are further joined through the magnetic joints. Therefore, when separated by accidentally falling onto the ground, the mobile communication device can be rejoined through the magnetic joints, and thus it is unnecessary to worry about the unavailability due to the break-down of the joint portion.
