Publication number: 20230236343Abstract: The disclosure provides an electronic device including a housing, a light-emitting element and a light diffusion structure. The housing includes a first light-transmitting hole and a second light-transmitting hole. The light-emitting element is disposed in the housing, and is aligned with the first light-transmitting hole. The light diffusion structure includes a first light diffusion layer and a second light diffusion layer. The first light diffusion layer is disposed between the housing and the light-emitting element, and comprises a first semi-transparent region and a first light-shielding region. The first semi-transparent region corresponds to the first light-transmitting hole, and the first light-shielding region surrounds the first semi-transparent region. The second light diffusion layer is disposed between the housing and the light-emitting element, and comprises a second semi-transparent region and a second light-shielding region.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 7, 2022Publication date: July 27, 2023Inventors: Chienyi HUANG, Chao-Shun WANG, Chun-Mao TSENG, Yan-Jhang CHENG, Chi LIU, Min Che KAO, Lu-Chien CHEN

Patent number: 11047550Abstract: The electronic device provided includes a housing with two first through holes and two second through holes, a light guiding structure, and a light source. A first section is provided between the two first through holes, and a second section is provided between the two second through holes. The length of the first section is less than the length of the second section. The light guiding structure includes a light guiding layer, a diffusion layer, and a light adjusting layer. The light adjusting layer is disposed at the position of the first section. The light source is disposed at a position that corresponds to an intersection of the first section and the second section. Light emitted by the light source passes through the light transmitting portion and the intersection, and is separately emitted through the first through holes and the second through holes along the light transmitting portion.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2020Date of Patent: June 29, 2021Assignee: ASUSTEK COMPUTER INC.Inventors: Chun-Mao Tseng, Chien-Yi Huang, Chao-Shun Wang, Min-Che Kao, Min-Hung Chang, Lu-Chien Chen, Hui-Fang Yan, Yi-Nian Zou, Min-Yu Wu, Hao-Yen Chang, Li Ding, Chi Liu, Yu-Jen Chen

Publication number: 20090098455Abstract: A battery structure includes a main body and a pulling member. The main body has a first outer surface and a second outer surface which are parallel to each other. The pulling member is connected to the first outer surface and the second outer surface and forms a holding portion extending from the main body. When taking the battery structure out of an electronic device, a user only needs to pull the holding portion, and then the main body can be separated from the electronic device. Whatever the pulling direction is, the pulling member cannot be destroyed, so the convenience in usage and durability can be increased.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 15, 2008Publication date: April 16, 2009Applicant: ASUSTEK COMPUTER INC.Inventor: Min-Che Kao
