  • Patent number: 11260288
    Abstract: A game controller has first and second controller housings having an attachment guide structure that detachably couples to an attachment tab structure disposed on opposing sides of an information handling system and a bridge. Input devices of the controller housing communicate directly with the information handling system through opposing pins and pads disposed in the attachment features or indirectly by communicating with the bridge through opposing pins and pads so the bridge communicates with the information handling system. The attachment guide structure has opposing lips with plural slots that pass tabs of the attachment tab structure through so that a sliding motion engages the tabs behind the lips.

  • Patent number: 10342148
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a first body, a second body, an electrical connection element, and a hinge structure. The electrical connection element is configured to electrically connect the first body with the second body. The hinge structure is configured to pivot the first body with the second body. The hinge structure includes two mounting bases, two first linking assemblies, and a second linking assembly. Each of the mounting bases is connected to the first body and the second body. The two first linking assemblies are respectively pivoted to the two mounting bases. The second linking assembly is disposed between the two mounting bases, and two opposite terminals of the second linking assembly are movably connected to the two mounting bases respectively. The second linking assembly has a receding space configured to accommodate a portion of the electrical connection element.

  • Patent number: 8929070
    Abstract: An expansion apparatus suitable for an electronic apparatus is provided. The expansion apparatus includes a base, a supporter and an airflow guiding structure. The base has a first fan disposed therein. The supporter is pivoted to the base along a rotating axis and has a cooling channel. The cooling channel has a first port and a second port opposite to the first port. When the electronic apparatus is assembled to the supporter, the second port of the cooling channel faces to the electronic apparatus. The airflow guiding structure is disposed between the supporter and the base movably. When the supporter is pivoted relative to the base to an expanded state, an active airflow generated by the first fan is guided by the airflow guiding structure to pass through the base and the electronic apparatus. An electronic equipment including the expansion apparatus is also provided.
