  • Publication number: 20100097807
    Abstract: A display. A casing includes an opening. A light guide plate is disposed in the casing. A display panel is disposed in the casing and is adjacent to the light guide plate. A light-guiding member is movably disposed in the opening and includes a first light-permeable portion, a second light-permeable portion, and at least one non-light-permeable portion. The first light-permeable portion is opposite the second light-permeable portion. The non-light-permeable portion is disposed between the first and second light-permeable portions. When the light-guiding member is moved to a first position, the second light-permeable portion connects to the light guide plate and light in the exterior of the casing enters the light guide plate via the first and second light-permeable portions. When the light-guiding member is moved to a second position, the non-light-permeable portion connects to the light guide plate and the light does not enter the light guide plate.

  • Patent number: 7628626
    Abstract: An easy-to-remove plug for insertion into a socket includes a body, two conducting plates extending forwardly and spacedly from a front end of the body, a shell sleeved on the body and movable forwardly and rearwardly relative to the body, and at least one linkage set. The linkage set is connected pivotally to one of the body and the shell, and has a force-bearing end and an abutting end. The force-bearing end has a connective relationship with the other of the body and the shell. When a force is applied to the shell to enable the shell to move rearwardly relative to the body, the force is borne by the force-bearing end and drives the linkage set to pivot so as to bring the abutting end to abut against the socket for separating the two conducting plates from the socket.

  • Publication number: 20090272867
    Abstract: A fixing member for handheld electronics is disclosed. The fixing member includes a fixing seat, a slot disposed in the fixing seat, a rotation axis set on the fixing seat, a one-way rolling member pivoted in the fixing seat and part of the one-way rolling member exposes on inner surface of the slot. The one-way rolling member is set on the rotation axis. Thus a side wall of the handheld electronic leans against the one-way rolling member when a handheld electronic is set inside the slot. Therefore, the handheld electronic is mounted inside the slot easily and stably without falling off.
