  • Publication number: 20240134107
    Abstract: A light source device includes a light guide plate, an optical adhesive, and a light source element. The light guide plate includes a light guide substrate and an enhancement layer. The light guide substrate has a light incident surface, a first surface, and a second surface. The first surface is opposite to the second surface, and the light incident surface extends between the first surface and the second surface. The enhancement layer is disposed on the light guide substrate. A thickness of the enhancement layer is from 1 micrometer to 25 micrometers and a first refractive index of the light guide substrate is greater than a second refractive index of the enhancement layer. The optical adhesive is interposed between the first surface of the light guide substrate and the optical adhesive. The light source element is disposed beside the light incident surface to emit light toward the light incident surface.

  • Patent number: 11962878
    Abstract: An electronic device is provided, including a main body and a camera module. The camera module has a frame, a lens unit disposed in the frame, a guiding member, and a hinge. The guiding member is affixed to the main body and has a rail and a spring sheet. The hinge pivotally connects to the frame and the guiding member. When the camera module is in the retracted position, the camera module is hidden in a recess of the main body. When the camera module slides out of the recess from the retracted position along the rail into the operational position, the spring sheet is pressed by the hinge to increase the friction between the hinge and the guiding member.

  • Patent number: 10908653
    Abstract: A hinge mechanism is provided, including a fixed member, a rotary member pivotally connected to the fixed member, a pin, a first gear set, and a second gear set. The first and second gear sets are connected to the fixed member and the rod and respectively have a teeth-uncompleted gear. When the rotary member rotates relative to the fixed member from an initial angle to a first angle, the first gear set drives the pin to rotate in a first direction. When the rotary member further rotates relative to the fixed member from the first angle to a second angle, the second gear set drives the ping to rotate in a second direction, which is the opposite of the first direction.
