  • Patent number: 11955743
    Abstract: A connection module is disposed in a main circuit board and includes a card edge connector, a hard circuit board and two connectors. The card edge connector is fixedly disposed on the main circuit board. The hard circuit board has a board body and a connecting tongue for correspondingly plugging with the card edge connector. The board body is configured with a disconnecting notch, and the board body is separated by the disconnecting notch into two floating plates arranged side by side at an interval and floatable using the disconnecting notch. The connectors are respectively fixed to the floating plates. Thus, without needing an additional guide frame, the connectors are enabled to float in any desired direction, thereby achieving effects of reducing an overall height and satisfying current thinning requirements.

  • Publication number: 20240103571
    Abstract: A portable computer includes a computer body and a handle. The handle, operable to be located at a closed position and an open position relative to the computer body, includes a body component for holding of a user, a movable member and an auxiliary member. One end of the movable member is pivotally connected to the body component and the other end is pivotally connected to the computer body. The auxiliary member is disposed on one end of the body component, and is abutted against one side of the movable member. During a movement process of the handle between the closed position and the open position, at least a portion of the movable member is kept in contact with the auxiliary member. When the handle is at the closed position and the open position, the auxiliary member and the body component jointly secure the movable member.

  • Patent number: 11940854
    Abstract: A replacement device includes a replacement module and a slider. The replacement module includes a sliding portion. The sliding portion is provided with a limiting column, which is formed with a fixing hole. The slider includes a slider body. The slider body is provided with a first latch, a limiting hole and a fixing element, wherein the first latch is arranged on a first side edge of the slider body. The slider is correspondingly arranged on the sliding portion of the replacement module, and the limiting column of the sliding portion passes through the limiting hole. The fixing element has a top portion, and is fixed in the fixing hole. The size of the top portion is greater than the size of the limiting hole, so that the slider moves relative to the replacement module within a limit range of the limiting hole.

  • Patent number: 11579933
    Abstract: A method for establishing system resource prediction and resource management model through multi-layer correlations is provided. The method builds an estimation model by analyzing the relationship between a main application workload, resource usage of the main application, and resource usage of sub-application resources and prepares in advance the specific resources to meet future requirements. This multi-layer analysis, prediction, and management method is different from the prior arts, which only focus on single-level estimation and resource deployment. The present invention can utilize more interactive relationships at different layers to effectively perform predictions, thereby achieving the advantage of reducing hidden resource management costs when operating application services.

  • Patent number: 9403207
    Abstract: A spiral bevel gear forging apparatus for forging a blank includes a first mold core having a mold cavity for receiving the blank, a first punch rod inserted movably into the first mold core and having a positioning end extending into the mold cavity for releasable engagement with a bottom of the blank, at least one push mechanism, and a drive mechanism. When the drive mechanism is operated to move from a non-ejecting to an ejecting position, the push mechanism is actuated to drive the first mold core to rotate about the first punch rod, and the first punch rod is actuated to move relative to the first mold core such that the positioning end thereof is moved out of the mold cavity for ejecting the blank out of the first mold core.
