Patent number: 7787243Abstract: Methods and apparatus for interfacing a memory device with a host device are disclosed. According to one aspect of the present invention, an apparatus which enables a non-volatile memory device to communicate with a host device includes a body and an element. The body has a boundary, and the element is arranged to move at least partially within the body. The element includes an interface which may be coupled to the host device when the element is in a first position with respect to the body. The element is also arranged to receive the non-volatile memory device and to move the non-volatile memory device and the interface with respect to the body. In one embodiment, when the element is in the first position with respect to the body, the interface at least partially extends past the boundary associated with the body.Type: GrantFiled: February 16, 2009Date of Patent: August 31, 2010Assignee: SanDisk CorporationInventors: Jeffrey A.

Patent number: 7674120Abstract: A hand held electronic device, such as a flash memory drive, includes a mechanism for extending and withdrawing a connector, such as a USB plug, that is adapted for engaging a mating connector of a host device. A positive latch holds the connector with respect to an outer shell when in the extended and withdrawn positions. Movement of a separate housing portion unlatches the connector and outer shell, and also provides movement of the connector. A protective door closes over a connector opening when the connector is withdrawn into the device, and the door is withdrawn into the device when the connector is extended, thereby not interfering with the extended connector.Type: GrantFiled: November 20, 2007Date of Patent: March 9, 2010Assignee: SanDisk CorporationInventors: Michael Alan Morganstern, Derek Niizawa, Jeffrey A. Salazar, Junggi Sung, Michael L. Simmons, Arturo Meuniot, Michael S. Roberts

Patent number: 6443470Abstract: A scooter has a plurality of wheels, a steerer, a platform, and a steerer support. The steerer support connects the steerer to the platform. The steerer support can rotate with respect to the platform, allowing the scooter to be folded when not in use. The steerer support can nest within the platform, further allowing the scooter to collapse into a compact position. The steering axis, front wheel diameter, and fork geometry are arranged to provide stable steering. Specifically, the steering axis and the front wheel axis of rotation are both located aft of the centerline of the steerer. Further, the contact point between the front wheel and the ground and the axis about which the front wheel rotates are located aft of the steering axis about which the steerer rotates. The trail, measured between the steering axis and the front wheel contact point, is kept relatively small, between 0 and 75 mm. Also disclosed is a collapsing steerer, a parallel-rail support structure, and a compact braking element.Type: GrantFiled: August 8, 2000Date of Patent: September 3, 2002Assignee: Nova Cruz Products, Inc.Inventors: Nathan T.
