  • Shield can
    Patent number: 11032954
    Abstract: A shield can assembly is described. In one or more implementations, a frame is installed on a printed circuit board (PCB) by using a cross-bar connected to opposing sides of the frame to place the frame on the PCB. Subsequent to installation of the frame on the PCB, the cross-bar is removed from the frame. Once the cross-bar is removed, one or more flexible printed circuits (FPCs) are installed on the PCB. Then, a lid is connected to the frame to from a shield can over the FPCs.
    Type: Grant

  • Interface Geometry for Camera Mounting
    Publication number: 20150103238
    Abstract: In one or more implementations, a lens barrel assembly includes one or more lens elements and a lens barrel configured to retain the one or more lens elements. The lens barrel includes a connection portion configured to provide a physical coupling to a camera module and an interface geometry having a complementary shape of an aperture of an external enclosure of a mobile computing device sufficient to align the lens barrel and the one or more lens elements in relation to the external housing.
