  • Publication number: 20230200455
    Abstract: A metal housing for an aerosol provision device is described and can include a printed circuit board mounted within the metal housing; a first contact spring providing an electrical connection between a first connection point on an inside of the metal housing and a ground connection of the printed circuit board; and a second contact spring providing an electrical connection between a second connection point on the inside surface of the metal housing and an antenna signal output for providing an antenna signal for transmission by the metal housing. The metal housing includes a radiating conductor element extending from a first surface element to a second surface element, wherein the first and second connection points are provided on the radiating conductor element and wherein a distance between the first and second surface elements is at least one quarter of a wavelength of the antenna signal transmission.

  • Patent number: 10637808
    Abstract: Methods, devices, and systems for facilitation of electronic message management involve receiving a message generated from a user of one communication system, augmenting the message with data indicative of the user, communicating the augmented message to a second communication system, and presenting the message to a user of the second communication system such that the message is separate from other received messages not having data indicative of the first user.

  • Patent number: 6648697
    Abstract: A connector includes a plastic body having a metal case put over an outer portion of a front end thereof, an insertion plate connected to a rear end of the plastic body, an interconnecting cable including two rows of conducting wires separately set onto upper rear and lower rear sides of the insertion plate, and two covering plates separately covered onto upper and lower sides of the insertion plate to hold the conducting wire of the interconnecting cable in place and then integrally connected to the insertion plate by way of high-frequency heat sealing. The plastic body, the insertion plate, and the covering plates are provided at predetermined positions with slots for receiving isolation plates therein, so that terminals inserted in the plastic body are individually surrounded by the isolation plates to eliminate mutual interference and therefore enable stable transmission of signals at high speed.

  • Publication number: 20030166361
    Abstract: A connector mainly includes a plastic body having a steel case put over a front end thereof, an insertion plate connected to a rear end of the plastic body, an intermediate cable including two rows of conductors separately set onto upper rear and lower rear sides of the insertion plate, and two hold-down plates separately covered onto upper and lower sides of the insertion plate to hold the conductors of the intermediate cable in place and then integrally connected to the insertion plate by way of high-frequency heat sealing. The plastic body, the insertion plate, and the hold-down plates are provided at predetermined positions with slots for receiving isolation plates therein, so that terminals inserted in the plastic body are individually surrounded by the isolation plates to eliminate mutual interference and therefore enable stable transmission of signals at high speed.

  • Patent number: 6447329
    Abstract: A connector includes an insulated base having a plurality of conductive terminals inserted onto a top thereof, and an insulated cover being structured to firmly hold a flat cable to the base. The base is provided at the top with a row of spacers to form a plurality of parallelly spaced slots, into which the conductive terminals are separately seated to partially expose from the top of the base. The flat cable is stripped at a predetermined section to expose a length of naked cores that are separately located in the spaced slots above the conductive terminals and are welded to the latter to provide increased contact areas between the terminals and the flat cable to ensure stable signal transmission at high speed. The spacers prevent the occurrence of short circuit during welding of the terminals to the naked cores of the flat cable.
