Patent number: 8362413Abstract: A contact detection device includes a number of first bars and second bars. Each first bar includes a number of first sheets. Each second bar includes a number of second sheets. The first bars and the second bars intersect to form a grid with a number of nodes as a contact detection area, each node having exclusive coordinates. Each first sheet defines a light hole, and the light holes are arranged in the same column line in the grid. Opposite sides of each first sheet arranges one photosensitive member above the corresponding light hole, and position of each photosensitive member is determined according to the coordinates of the nearest node in a predetermined direction. Opposite ends of each two adjacent second bars respectively arrange one light emitter therebetween. When one point of the grid is pressed, the light emitted by the light emitter irradiates the photosensitive member.Type: GrantFiled: November 17, 2010Date of Patent: January 29, 2013Assignees: Fu Tai Hua Industry (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd., Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., Ltd.Inventors: Man-Tian Liu, Jin-Wei Xiao

Patent number: 8320113Abstract: An exemplary foldable device includes a main body, a cover coupling a display unit, and a hinge mechanism rotatably connecting the cover to the main body. The main body includes a first connecting rod defining a first connecting hole and a second connecting rod defining a second connecting hole. The hinge mechanism includes two support plates, a rotary member, and a rotary shaft. The two support plates are fixed to the first connecting rod. The rotary member is rotatably positioned between the two support plates and defines a through hole. The rotary shaft includes a first end that extends through the through hole of the rotary member and can be fitted into the first connecting hole or the second connecting hole, and an opposite second end fixed to the cover. Thus the cover can be rotated about the first connecting rod or the second connecting rod.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2010Date of Patent: November 27, 2012Assignees: Fu Tai Hua Industry (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd., Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., Ltd.Inventor: Jin-Wei Xiao

Patent number: 8305240Abstract: An input inducing device is provided. The input inducing device includes a winding, a current sensor, and a processing unit. Two ends of the winding are connected to the current sensor and form a closed-loop with the current sensor. When a magnetic object moves towards the winding, the winding cuts magnetic induction lines of the magnetic object to generate an induced current, the current sensor senses the induced current and generates a sensing signal according to the sensed induced current. The sensing signal is transmitted to the processing unit, which then implements a predetermined function according to the sensing signal.Type: GrantFiled: June 17, 2010Date of Patent: November 6, 2012Assignees: Hong Fu Jin Precision Industry (ShenZhen) Co., Ltd., Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., Ltd.Inventors: Jin-Wei Xiao, Jun Gu

Patent number: 8111508Abstract: A hinge for rotatably connecting a lid to a base includes a first fixing member for being fixed to the lid, a second fixing member for being fixed to the base, a hollow member, and an axle member. The hollow member defines a chamber having a lateral surface. A protrusion protrudes from the lateral surface. The axle member includes a protruding wall received in the chamber, a first end and a second end extending out of the chamber, the first end is fixed to the first fixing member. The second end is rotatably connected to the second fixing member. The protruding wall cooperates with the protrusion to divide the chamber into a first chamber and a second chamber.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2010Date of Patent: February 7, 2012Assignees: Fu Tai Hua Industry (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd., Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., Ltd.Inventor: Jin-Wei Xiao
