  • Patent number: 11907028
    Abstract: A portable electronic device, including a first body and a second body, is provided. The second body includes a support structure and a display panel. The support structure is pivotally connected to the first body and is connected to the display panel. The support structure has a first bendable portion. An included angle between the first bendable portion and an edge of the support structure is 45 degrees. The support structure is adapted to be bent along the first bendable portion, so that the second body switches between a first mode and a second mode relative to the first body.

  • Patent number: 11784896
    Abstract: A network equipment monitoring analysis aid and guidance method, and its terminal device and readable storage medium are disclosed. The method is loaded into an equipment to execute the steps of collecting a history total traffic of a terminal device connected to the equipment; capturing a history time period traffic of each time period of the terminal device; analyzing the history total traffic and the history time period traffic by a quantitative analysis to generate a quantitative information of the terminal device; and presenting a corresponding guide information on a user interface according to the quantitative information. The guide information can be used to clearly mark a network traffic level of each terminal device in each time period and present it in a user interface, so as to visually present a network user's network activity behavior, guide parental use and monitoring, and set guidelines for members.

  • Publication number: 20230224735
    Abstract: A smart channel switching method based on history channel data, and its terminal device and readable storage medium are disclosed. The method includes the steps of: capturing a history current noise value or transmission capacity of each channel of a wireless device and obtaining a healthrate of the channel; obtaining a health ratio by the transmission quantity of each channel and the corresponding healthrate; comparing the health ratio with a threshold, and switching the connection of the wireless device to a channel with the health ratio below the threshold when the health ratio reaches the threshold. In this way, this invention obtains a health ratio by the history current noise value or transmission capacity of each channel, compares the health ratio with the threshold to determine whether the transmission capacity is sufficient, and switches a channel accordingly without requiring any change of the communication protocol.
