  • Patent number: 9226566
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus 100 includes: a first casing 101 having an operation section 110 provided on a top surface; a second casing 102 having a display provided thereon; an opening and closing mechanism 120 configured to connect a far side portion of the first casing 101 to the second casing 102 such that the information processing apparatus 100 is openable and closable; and a belt 150 provided on a back surface side of the first casing 101. The belt 150 extends diagonally on a back surface 101a of the first casing 101 from a mounting portion provided on one side surface 101b side of the first casing 101, so as to approach the far side portion of the first casing 101 as a distance from the one side surface 101b side is increased, and reaches a mounting portion provided on a far side of the first casing 101.

  • Patent number: 9182809
    Abstract: An electronic device comprises a main battery used as a drive power source for driving the electronic device, a secondary battery used as a drive power source instead of the main battery when the main battery cannot be used, a battery detection unit that detects an event of removal of the main battery from the electronic device, and a power control unit that changes the drive power source from the main battery to the secondary battery and controls operation of the electronic device to reduce power consumption by the electronic device when removal of the main battery is detected by the battery detection unit.

  • Publication number: 20120268873
    Abstract: Disposed on a principal plane of a case is a pair of support members each having one end portion rotatably supported. The other end portions of the support members are supported rotatably by projections included in the case. A pair of loose-insertion openings through which the support parts are loosely inserted is arranged on the one end portions of the pair of support members. A gripping member having a configuration embedding the support members via the pair of loose-insertion openings is included. In a gripping device and an information processing device including the gripping device, concaved portions are formed on the support members at positions intersecting the pair of loose-insertion openings and facing the other support member. This configuration allows smooth rotational moving of the gripping member with regard to the information processing device, and suppressing pinching of foreign debris between the pair of support members and the gripping member.

  • Patent number: 5357477
    Abstract: A memory includes a memory cell array unit, a plurality of memory cell bit lines connected to the memory cell array unit, a plurality of column selecting gates, and a plurality of sub data lines connected to the memory cell bit lines via the column selecting gates. A column selector serves to select and make conductive members of the column selecting gates so that data can be transmitted between successive members of the memory cell bit lines and the sub data lines. The memory further includes N-bit main data lines, where N denotes a given natural number. In addition, the memory includes data line selecting gates. The sub data lines are connected to the main data lines via the data line selecting gates. A data line selector serves to select and make conductive members of the data line selecting gates so that data can be transmitted between N successive members of the sub data lines and the main data lines.
