Patent number: 11886253Abstract: This application relates to improving kinematics in a computing device such as a laptop computer. A magnetic latch mechanism includes a magnetic array and an attractor plate. The magnetic array is secured in a top portion of the laptop computer and the attractor plate is secured in a base portion of the laptop computer. An attractive force of the magnetic latch mechanism is calibrated by selectively demagnetizing a portion of one or more magnetic elements in the magnetic array to reduce the attractive force proximate a target force. The calibration technique can include exciting a demagnetizing element, such as a pair of conductive coils, with a short, high frequency demagnetization pulse to create a demagnetized zone within the magnetic array that is completely demagnetized, irrespective of unit to unit variations of magnetic properties in the initially magnetized magnetic array. This technique ensures an accurate kinematic user experience.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2019Date of Patent: January 30, 2024Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: John C. Difonzo, Hao Zhu, Bryce W.

Patent number: 11438698Abstract: The present invention discloses a double-voice-coil double-magnetic-circuit high-frequency loudspeaker, comprising a stand frame. At least two groups of magnetic circuits, which are symmetrically distributed with respect to a central axis in the horizontal direction of the stand frame, are arranged in the stand frame. With adoption of a design structure of a double-voice-coil double-magnetic-circuit resonant diaphragm, multiple vocal ranges can be provided to effectively increase a utilization rate of magnetic fields and improve sensitivity of the loudspeaker. In addition, production and assembly are facilitated to improve output power of a headset; and volume and voice quality can be controlled to provide ultra-high voice frequency, thereby creating truer vocal range expression.Type: GrantFiled: January 28, 2022Date of Patent: September 6, 2022Assignee: Shenzhen Shengjiali Electronics Co., Ltd.Inventor: Huaidang Xu
