Abstract: An electronic apparatus of the clamshell type includes a hinge bracket receiving the back surface of a display enclosure. The hinge bracket takes a closed attitude, where the display enclosure is superposed on a main body enclosure, to an opened attitude, where the display enclosure is flipped to open relative to the main body enclosure. When the display enclosure is set at a specific angle position during establishment of the closed attitude of the hinge bracket, the screen of the display panel is partly uncovered outside the edge of the main body enclosure. The user of the electronic apparatus is allowed to look at an image or images on a partial screen. Such a partial screen provides the functions identical to those of a so-called sub-display panel. A conventional sub-display can be omitted. The electronic apparatus is allowed to enjoy a wide variety of design.

Abstract: Guiding pieces on a bracket cover is engaged with attachment claws on a bracket body. This engagement serves to hold the bracket cover on the bracket body when the bracket cover is set at a first position. When the bracket cover is set at a second position, the engagement between an engagement piece and a hook piece serves to cooperate with the engagement between the guiding pieces and the attachment claws so as to hold the bracket cover on the bracket body. The bracket cover is firmly held on the bracket body when the bracket cover is set at the second position. The bracket cover is thus reliably prevented from detachment from the bracket body.

Abstract: An enclosure assembly allows a hinge bracket to realize establishment of the opened attitude or the closed attitude of a second enclosure relative to a first enclosure. The second enclosure rotates relative to the hinge bracket around the second rotation axis. The second enclosure in this manner changes its attitude relative to the first enclosure. The hinge bracket stays where it is. The hinge bracket does not rotate. The position of the light sources is thus kept unchanged. The position of the light is maintained regardless of a change in the attitude of the second enclosure around the second rotation axis. The enclosure for an electronic apparatus is thus allowed to enjoy an enhanced appearance. This leads to an enhanced appearance of the electronic apparatus.

Abstract: An enclosure for an electronic apparatus includes an enclosure body defining an opening. The enclosure allows a panel member to cover over the opening from the outside of the enclosure body. One is allowed to design the panel member regardless of the shape of the opening. This results in a widened variety of design for the enclosure body, namely the enclosure for an electronic apparatus. The enclosure is thus allowed to enjoy an enhanced appearance.

The tray stocker 40 is provided with a tray stocker side replenishment tray holding section 80 on a top plate 44 thereof and empty tray holding members 85 on a bottom plate 43 thereof.

Abstract: An optical cross-connect apparatus that realizes high throughput in optical cross-connection by performing large-scale switching. An input optical signal processing section converts wavelengths contained in each input WDM signal into wavelengths the number of which is equal to the number of WDM signals, compresses the pulse widths of the WDM signals by dividing the pulse widths by the number of the wavelengths contained in each input WDM signal, and performs a phase shift so that the phases of a plurality of compressed signal will not be the same. A wavelength switching section includes passive optical devices and distributes the optical signals processed by the input optical signal processing section according to wavelengths. An output optical signal processing section converts wavelengths contained in the optical signals distributed by the wavelength switching section into wavelengths recognized from the phases of the optical signals, expands the pulse widths of the optical signals, and outputs WDM signals.
