  • Publication number: 20130163152
    Abstract: A stand structure comprises a principal member, a supporting member and an elastic member. The principal member is configured to connect with an object. The supporting member is movably connected with the principal member. Two opposite terminals of the elastic member are fixed at the principal member and the supporting member respectively. When the object is tilted at a tilt angle relative to a bearing surface, the supporting member is retracted and displaced relative to the principal member, and therefore the elastic member is elastically deformed to generate a supporting force to withstand the weight of the object so that the tilt angle of the object can be maintained.

  • Patent number: 8451733
    Abstract: A method of optimizing scanning parameters for a plurality of channels in a wireless band includes identifying channels in the plurality of channels as overlapping channels and identifying channels in the plurality of channels as non-overlapping channels, wherein each of the non-overlapping channels transmits and receives signals at frequencies that do not overlap frequencies of other non-overlapping channels. Then scanning parameters for each channel are optimized in order to assign the scanning parameters to be normal scanning parameters or extended scanning parameters, the extended scanning parameters indicating longer scanning times used for scanning channels than that of the normal scanning parameters. Next each overlapping channel is scanned with a networked electronic device using the normal scanning parameters. The method also includes scanning each non-overlapping channel with the networked electronic device using the extended scanning parameters.
