  • Patent number: 9148973
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a bottom plate, an installation board, a circuit board, a battery, and a power supply control module. The power supply control module includes a control member and an activating member, and the activating member is pressed against the control member when the electronic device is assembled. So long as the control member remains pressed by the activating member, a flow of electrical power from the battery to the circuit board is permitted. When the electronic device is disassembled, the disassembly moves the activating member away from the activating member and cuts off the power from the battery to the circuit board, to avoid electrical short circuits or other damage that might otherwise occur if the flow of electrical power was maintained during disassembly.

  • Patent number: 6844511
    Abstract: A multi-function control key structure formed of a key cap and a springy key body is disclosed for different triggering controls by means of a center shank of the key cap and a plurality of triggering rods of the key body around the center shank. The key cap has driving rods spaced above the triggering rods and adapted to drive the triggering rods to make a triggering action respectively. The center shank is tilted so as not to make a triggering action accidentally when the key cap is biased to force one triggering rod of the key body to make a triggering action. The driving rods do not touch the triggering rods when pressed the center area of the key cap to force the center shank to make a triggering action.
