Abstract: A support mechanism for a computer peripheral device includes a housing accommodating a base within the housing, and a supporting post having a first end coupled to the base. The base has a pivoting sleeve and couples to the supporting post at a first position, and the pivoting sleeve engages with the supporting post such that the housing is rotatable to force the pivoting sleeve and the supporting post to rotate. The pivoting sleeve can move along an axial line of the housing, and the housing can be pivoted about the top of the pivoting sleeve together with the supporting post. Therefore, the housing can carry out multi-direction-movement, or so-called sphere-like movement relative to a leg coupled to the second end of the supporting post.

Abstract: The housing of a web cam includes a main housing member and a corresponding cover for accommodating a web cam module. The rear portion of the main housing member has a space and a plurality of extensions or projections along the periphery of the space, and the cover has a fixed portion and a plurality of recesses corresponding to each of the extensions or projections of the rear portion. The main housing member further has a fixing portion at the front of the main housing member for securing to a fixing portion of the cover.

Abstract: A support for a computer peripheral device has a base, a post having a first end extending through the base and a second end that couples a computer peripheral device, and a pair of base supports. Each base support has an extension which is received within the base and which engages the first end of the post. When the post is rotated, the base supports are separated from each other to define a clamping space therebetween.

Abstract: A notebook computer has a notebook computer housing and a web cam module secured to the notebook computer housing. The web cam module has a web cam housing, with a lens and a motor retained inside the web cam housing. The motor has a driving shaft coupled to the lens for rotating the lens to an angled position, and the motor is powered and controlled by the notebook computer to adjust the angle of the lens.
