Patent number: 11953954Abstract: A variable holder module secures a variety of different expansion cards that may be installed within a computer or other information handling system. The holder module has a multi-sided component that is orientable according to which expansion card is to be secured within the computer. Each side of the component may thus correspond to a different one of the expansion cards. Once the expansion card is determined, a human or robotic picker need only orient component to the side that corresponds to the make/model of the expansion card. The holder module is thus adaptable to secure many different expansion cards that may be installed within the computer.Type: GrantFiled: July 6, 2022Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: Dell Products L.P.Inventors: Jing-Tang Wu, Tung-Yi Chen, Andrew O. Ingalls

Patent number: 11894024Abstract: An information handling system storage bay accepts 2.5 inch and 3.5 inch storage drives held in a storage drive carrier sized to hold 3.5 inch storage drives and having an adapter that couples to the storage drive carrier to adapt it to hold 2.5 inch drives. The storage drive carrier is manufactured as a contiguous piece from a mold with hard plastic to integrate the adapter so that the adapter breaks free to couple to the storage drive carrier when a small size drive is to be held. Snaps in the contiguous piece couple with the adapter after the adapter is broken free to store the adapter when a larger sized drive is held by the storage drive carrier.Type: GrantFiled: October 26, 2021Date of Patent: February 6, 2024Assignee: Dell Products L.P.Inventors: Edward D.

Patent number: 11592912Abstract: Clickpad structures may be attached to surfaces of an information handling system using material stacks comprising an elastic material, such as a sponge, which can preload a force on the clickpad surface. The preloaded force reduces a gap between the clickpad switch and contact point, which reduces instability, rattling, and other negative experiences with the clickpad surface experienced by a user. According to an embodiment, an input device for an information handling system includes a clickpad surface having a first side configured to receive user input and a second side opposite the first side; a first coupling stack comprising a first elastic material with a first thickness; and a second coupling stack comprising a second elastic material with a second thickness, wherein each of the coupling stacks is attached to the clickpad surface and a surface of the information handling system by adhesives.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 2021Date of Patent: February 28, 2023Assignee: Dell Products L.P.Inventors: Jing-Tang Wu, Shih-Wei Yang, Chia-Chi Ho, Ya-Chen Tsai

Patent number: 8823870Abstract: A portable electronic device including a first body and an image capturing module is provided. The first body has a housing with an opening. The image capturing module is movably disposed in the housing, and includes a circuit board, an image capturing unit and a driving mechanism. The image capturing unit is disposed on the circuit board. The driving mechanism is configured to drive the circuit board. When the driving mechanism is operated in a first state, the driving mechanism drives the circuit board to move towards a predetermined direction relative to the housing, so that the image capturing unit moves to a first position aligned to the opening and is exposed. When the driving mechanism is operated in a second state, the driving mechanism drives the circuit board to move towards another direction, so that the image capturing unit leaves the opening and is shielded at a second position.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2013Date of Patent: September 2, 2014Assignee: Wistron CorporationInventors: Tsung-Ying Tsai, Jing-Tang Wu
