  • Patent number: 11314288
    Abstract: Portable information handling system housing portions rotationally couple with a mono barrel hinge that integrates a stylus garage in a barrel element coupling hinge elements at opposing ends. The stylus garage is formed as a depression within the barrel element that captures a stylus so that the housing portions enclose the stylus when rotated to a closed position and expose the stylus when rotated to an open position.

  • Patent number: 7852403
    Abstract: An electronic device comprises a body, a first image capturing element, a cover and a arm. The body comprises a first surface and a second surface, with the first surface opposite to the second surface. The first image capturing element is disposed on the first surface. The cover is connected to the body, movable between a first cover position and a second cover position, wherein the cover covers the first image capturing element when the cover is in the first cover position, and the first image capturing element is actuated when the cover is in the second cover position. The arm is connected to the cover, pivoting between a first position and a second position, wherein when the arm is in the second position, a recording medium is received on a first end of the arm, and the first image capturing element captures an image data therefrom.

  • Patent number: 7391465
    Abstract: An electronic device with a rotatable image capture device. The electronic device includes a body and an image capture module. The body includes a first surface, a second surface and a sleeve. The second surface is opposite the first surface. The image capture module is disposed in the body, and includes a rotary shaft and a charge-coupled device. The image capture module rotates among a first position, a second position, a third position, and a fourth position. The rotary shaft is disposed in the sleeve in a manner such that it can move between a fifth position and a sixth position. When the rotary shaft moves between the fifth position and the sixth position, the image capture module can rotate through the first position, the second position, the third position, and the fourth position.
