  • Publication number: 20220095471
    Abstract: A clamp may include two substantially planar plates opposite from and generally parallel to one another, each plate having a mounting hole formed therein for receiving a fastener, two teeth, each tooth extending from a respective one of the two plates, such that each tooth is generally perpendicular to the plates, and such that each tooth extends towards the other from its respective plate, and a tongue opposite from and mechanically interfaced between the two plates, such that the tongue has a concave curved profile between the plates, and such that when a force is applied in a first direction by a fastener engaging with the clamp through the mounting holes, compression of the plates towards one another causes deflection of the tongue in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction.

  • Patent number: 10732679
    Abstract: A portable information handling system rotationally couples housing portions with a mono barrel hinge having sequential axle rotation about 360 degrees. A dual eccentric shaft hinge element rotates each axle about a cable routed between the axles so that a full 360 degrees of rotation is achieve with a thin height profile. Each axle shaft has a flat face that is maintained adjacent the cable rotating with an eccentric pattern relative to the cable.

  • Patent number: 9817493
    Abstract: In accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure, a method may include mechanically supporting a cantilever arm of a clickpad between a support bracket and a housing by a compressive force of the plurality of fasteners applied to the support bracket and the housing, and free of any features for receiving any of a plurality of fasteners for coupling the support bracket to the housing, wherein the cantilever arm has a pivot end and a trigger end, and such that the cantilever arm pivots about a pivot axis proximate to the pivot end in response to a force exerted on the surface of the clickpad substantially perpendicular to a surface of the clickpad.

  • Patent number: 8297821
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are a light source module and an electronic device using the same. The light source module is disposed in a housing component of the electronic device and includes a light source and a light guide element having a light-entering surface, a light-departing curved surface and a light-reflecting curved surface. The light-entering surface receives the light from the light source. The normal line directions of the light-departing curved surface are approximately perpendicular to the normal line direction of the light-entering surface. The light is reflected by the light-reflecting curved surface and then leaves the light guide element in the normal line directions of the light-departing curved surface.

  • Publication number: 20120155035
    Abstract: A display device includes a display module, an outer housing, a glass cover and a strength-enhanced member. The display module is installed within the outer housing, and the outer housing has a support portion. The glass cover is attached to the support portion. The strength-enhanced member is located within the outer housing, and the strength-enhanced member is disposed closer to a corresponding corner of the outer housing than a corresponding corner of the glass cover is.

  • Publication number: 20110242749
    Abstract: An electronic device is described. The electronic device includes an upper cover and a base. The upper cover includes at least one supporting beam formed in an inner surface thereof and positioned corresponding to at least one boundary of a cavity region of the base. The width of the supporting beam is more than three times of the thickness of the upper cover. In addition, a distance between the edge of the supporting beam and the cavity boundary is less than 10 mm.

  • Patent number: 7869205
    Abstract: A data processing device including a first housing, a second housing, and a bracket is provided. The bracket is disposed between the first housing and the second housing. The bracket has a body and a plurality of supporting ends. The body has a bearing surface and a supporting surface. The bearing surface faces the first housing, and does not contact the first housing. The supporting surface faces the second housing, and does not contact the second housing. The supporting ends are disposed around the body and contact the first housing to support the body. A first distance between the supporting surface relatively away from the supporting ends and the second housing is larger than a second distance between the supporting surface relatively close to the supporting ends and the second housing.
