Patent number: 11873675Abstract: Examples of glass adjustment assemblies arc described. An example glass adjustment assembly includes a locking member and a clamp that includes a base member with side extensions on either side. The example glass adjustment assembly also includes a horizontal connection member. The side extensions of the clamp are to be slidably mounted to the horizontal connection member. The locking member is to be variably attached to the horizontal connection member. The variable attachment is to apply controlled pressure on the base member of the clamp which is transmitted to a glass panel through an adhesive tape. The pressure applied to the glass panel may generate tension in a frame structure, which reduces sag and allows for thin members of the frame structure. In some examples, external hardware can attach to the vertical and/or horizontal connection members.Type: GrantFiled: September 21, 2022Date of Patent: January 16, 2024Assignee: Falkbuilt Ltd.Inventors: Jeffrey K.

Patent number: 11526240Abstract: An input device such as a stylus for providing input to a touch-sensitive surface with reduced sensitivity to leakage current variations over temperature is disclosed. A passive stylus may include one or more diodes in parallel with one or more bleed resistors. The non-linear load of the diode and resistor network can be operative to provide a stylus electric field in response to a stimulation signal from an electronic device that can be capacitively coupled to, and sensed by, the electronic device. The signal sensed by the electronic device can be a function of the total leakage current, which can vary greatly as a function of temperature and frequency. In order to improve performance, the diode and resistor network, including the bleed resistor(s) and diodes within that network, can be selected and/or designed to provide a reduced variation in the leakage current and more accurate stylus detection.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 2021Date of Patent: December 13, 2022Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Daniel Jacob Benjamin Bechstein, Ullas Chandra Sekhar Pazhayaveetil, Jason Chueh-Ren Hu, Robert Ubo Liu, Rexford J.

Publication number: 20220253162Abstract: Touch-based input devices, such as a stylus, can receive tactile input from a user. The tactile input functions can be performed by a touch sensor, such as a capacitive sensing device. A touch sensor can be integrated into a stylus in a low profile form. Tactile input can be received at the user's natural grip location. Furthermore, the stylus can effectively distinguish between tactile inputs from a user and disregard sustained tactile inputs that are provided while the user simply holds the stylus at the user's natural grip location.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 26, 2022Publication date: August 11, 2022Inventors: Blake R.
