  • Publication number: 20130249797
    Abstract: A method for executing a mouse function of electronic device and an electronic device thereof are provided. In the present method, an amount and a relative position of input signals are detected by a sensor module. Then, whether the amount and the relative position are respectively conformed to a predetermined value is determined. If the predetermined values are conformed, whether the input signal is conformed to a specific signal is determined when a variation of the relative position is occurred. Finally, a corresponding mouse function is executed according to a type of the variation if the variation is conformed to the specific signal. As a result, a mouse device is no longer needed for a user to accomplish a directional operation on the electronic device so as to prevent inconvenience of particularly carrying a mouse device.

  • Publication number: 20110164374
    Abstract: A portable storage device includes a body and a cable. The body has a receiving slot with an opening. The cable is received in the receiving slot and is electrically connected with the body. The cable has at least one bending portion with an included angle less than 90 degree, thereby flexibly extends the cable along a longitudinal extension axis and avoids non-linear twist or curl occurring on the cable, so as to allow a convenient folding and storing of the connecting cable.

  • Publication number: 20100226087
    Abstract: A computer system with integrated cable is disclosed. The computer system includes a circuit board module, at least one electronic device and an integrated cable. The circuit board module includes a first connector, and the integrated cable is electrically connecting with the circuit board module and the electronic device. The integrated cable includes a second connector electrically connected to the first connector and a body electrically connected to the electronic device. The body integrates at least one power cable and at least one signal cable electrically connected to the second connector, and has a tearing structure formed between the power cable and the signal cable to allow an easy separation of the power cable and the signal cable. With such, meanwhile, entwining of unused power cables or signal cables is effectively avoided.
