  • Patent number: 10627634
    Abstract: A head mounted display (HMD) may comprise an adjustable crown band, a crown band circumference adjusting mechanism coupled to the adjustable crown band and configured to adjust a crown band circumference to releasably secure the crown band to the user's crown, an armature including left and right arms, each of the left and right arms mounted at a respective proximal end to corresponding left and right HMD attachment structures, a display mounted at left and right sides to respective distal ends of the left and right arms, and an eye relief distance adjustment mechanism configured to move the left and right arms in a timed manner toward and away from the crown band along a substantially linear path, to thereby adjust an eye relief distance from the display to an eye of a the user when the crown band is fitted on the crown of the user.

  • Patent number: 10013898
    Abstract: The presently disclosed multi-position biased rotating logo components permit an electronic device to display a logo associated with the device in a variety of positions with reference to a device housing while the device is re-positioned in different orientations. This allows the logo to maintain a desired orientation with reference to a support surface or a direction of gravity as the device is re-positioned in the different orientation. Further, the rotating logo is biased to achieve and maintain two or more preselected orientations within the housing that correspond to two or more intended orientations of the device.

  • Patent number: 9535465
    Abstract: In embodiments of a hinge electrical interconnection guide, a portable device includes a first housing integrated with a display device, and a second housing movably coupled to the first housing. A hinge assembly includes a hinge link to couple hinge mechanisms that are movably operable to open and close the first and second housings of the portable device relative to each other. An electrical interconnection guide is integrated with the hinge link and designed to route an electrical interconnection in a first configuration between the first and second housings of the device when closed relative to each other. The electrical interconnection guide is also designed to route the electrical interconnection in a second configuration between the first and second housings of the device when open relative to each other.
