Patent number: 11683903Abstract: A host casing of an electronic device includes a housing, a filler panel, and a disassembly and assembly structure. A front side of the housing has an opening. The dummy cover is disposed in the opening of the housing. The disassembly and assembly structure is disposed inside the housing. In a first state, the disassembly and assembly structure buckles with the dummy cover, thereby fixing the dummy cover. In a second state, the disassembly and assembly structure releases the dummy cover, and simultaneously pushes the dummy cover out of the opening. Therefore, the replacement action between the dummy cover and a pluggable device can be effectively simplified, so that maintenance personnel can easily assemble or disassemble the dummy cover without the assistance of additional tools.Type: GrantFiled: February 2, 2021Date of Patent: June 20, 2023Assignee: WISTRON CORPORATIONInventors: Long-Hua Wu, Chi-Ken Tsai

Patent number: 9147190Abstract: A computer is programmed to receive from an administrator, a rule specifying one or more values of a parameter, identification of software wherein the rule is to be applied, and identification of a user on whom the rule is to be applied. The computer stores an association between the rule, the identified user and the identified software. On receipt of input from the identified user, to access the identified software, the computer uses the association to retrieve the rule, apply the rule to select information based on the value(s) specified in the rule, and execute the identified software to display the selected information to the identified user. Use of a rule that is specific to the user and also specific to the software enables the computer to support security for each user differently for different pieces of software in a software product line.Type: GrantFiled: January 29, 2010Date of Patent: September 29, 2015Assignee: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Gary Anthony Mora, Bhupinder Singh Sondhi, Naomi Dorsch, Chi Ken Young
