  • Publication number: 20140112005
    Abstract: A proximity touch sensor device having an inner housing defining a cavity, an integrated circuit positioned within the cavity of the inner housing, the integrated circuit having an input port and an output port that outputs an output signal, and a USB connector protruding from the inner housing. The proximity touch sensor device also includes a light emitting diode integrated into the inner housing, positioned above the USB connector and electrically coupled to the output port of the integrated circuit, a sensing device positioned around the inner housing and electrically coupled to the input port of the integrated circuit, and an outer housing completely covering the inner housing and the sensing device such that contact with the outer housing causes the sensing device to send a signal to the input port of the integrated circuit to activate the light emitting diode.

  • Patent number: 8653789
    Abstract: A battery charger including a converter unit, a terminal adaptor, a cable, a battery, and/or multiple power connectors. A terminal, such as an electronic device, can be connected to the converter unit using the cable or directly to the converter unit without the cable. The converter unit determines when to draw power from an external power and when to cease drawing power from the external power source by detecting a power enablement condition or a power disablement condition. The power disablement condition occurs when the terminal is fully charged, the terminal is disconnected from the converter unit, and/or a charge time of the terminal exceeds the predetermined charge time threshold. The power enablement condition occurs when the terminal is initially connected to the converter unit and/or the terminal needs to be charged. The battery supplies power to components of the converter unit and/or the terminal.
