Publication number: 20240155790Abstract: Techniques are described to address issues for repairing and/or servicing electronic components through the use of retaining assemblies that use bimetal retaining mechanisms. The bimetal retaining mechanisms may comprise various shapes such as hooks, snap-hooks, clips, etc., and facilitate a temperature-selective removal of various electronic components such as displays, EMI shields, etc. without damaging these components and without compromising the thickness and weight of the electronic device. External heating systems may be used to trigger actuation of the bimetal retaining mechanisms, resulting in their release. Alternatively, internal electronic device heating systems may be used.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 19, 2023Publication date: May 9, 2024Inventors: Deepak Sekar, Samarth Alva, Prakash Kurma Raju, Prasanna Pichumani, Arnab Sen

Patent number: 11537174Abstract: A variable pitch clamshell hinge for use with clamshell housings includes a first shaft coupled to a first variable diameter device and a second shaft coupled to a second variable diameter device. The first variable diameter device and the second variable diameter device are coupled together using an inelastic linking element. As the shafts are rotated in a first direction the variable diameter devices increase in diameter. As the shafts are rotated in a second direction that is opposite the first direction, the variable diameter devices decrease in diameter. As the variable diameter devices increase in diameter, the inelastic linking element exerts a compressive force on the variable diameter devices, decreasing the distance (i.e., the pitch) between the shafts. As the variable diameter devices decrease in diameter, the inelastic linking element relaxes the compressive force on the variable diameter devices, increasing the distance between the shafts.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 2020Date of Patent: December 27, 2022Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Shankara Venkatraman Gopalan, Prasanna Pichumani, Rajeev Rema Shanmugam

Patent number: 11474568Abstract: A convertible mobile compute device comprises a lid, a base, and a hinge assembly coupled to the lid and the base. The hinge assembly includes a lid hinge bracket secured to the lid and configured to rotate about a lid hinge axis. The hinge assembly also includes a base hinge bracket secured to the base and configured to rotate about a base hinge axis. The lid hinge axis is offset from a centerline axis defined by the lid, and the base hinge axis is offset from a centerline axis defined by the base. As described herein, the offsetting of the hinge axes provides for a smaller a lid-to-base gap when the convertible mobile compute device is positioned in a closed mode relative to when the convertible mobile compute device is positioned in a tablet mode.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 2021Date of Patent: October 18, 2022Assignee: INTEL CORPORATIONInventors: Bijendra Singh, Prakash Kurma Raju, Prasanna Pichumani, Kathiravan D

Patent number: 11139553Abstract: Technologies for a metal chassis for an electronic device are disclosed. A manufacturer may manufacture a chassis of an electronic device by machining a recess into a chassis preform and perform an anodization of the chassis. The manufacturer may machine the side of the chassis preform opposite the recess to a predefined thickness, and then perform a subsequent anodization. The predefined thickness is selected so that, after the subsequent anodization, there is a single anodized layer between the surface of the recess and the chassis surface on the opposite side. The single anodized layer is non-conductive, allowing electromagnetic signals of an antenna to pass through.Type: GrantFiled: December 27, 2018Date of Patent: October 5, 2021Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Jayprakash Thakur, Prakash Kurma Raju, Prasanna Pichumani, Akarsha Kadadevaramath

Publication number: 20210218102Abstract: Techniques for battery retention are disclosed. In the illustrative embodiment, a thin polyurethane strap is used to hold a battery in place. The strap only requires a small amount of volume, allowing for a higher volume (and higher capacity) for the battery. In order to accommodate swelling, a computing device that has a battery held in place with such a strap can have an open area above the battery. The strap may have ridges to contact the battery and the component above the battery beyond the open area. If the battery swells, the ridges may be pressed down, accommodating the swelling battery.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 26, 2021Publication date: July 15, 2021Inventors: Prasanna Pichumani, Jagadish Vasudeva Singh, Prakash Kurma Raju, Vinay Kumar Chandrasekhara, Arvind Sundaram, Naoki Matsumura
