Abstract:
A suspension apparatus includes a casing, a fixing member received in the casing, and a hanging portion extending from a first end of the casing. The fixing member includes two latches. First ends of the latches are rotatably connected to each other. Each latch includes a tab extending from a second end of the latch and extending through a second end of the casing, and an operation portion extending from the latch and extending through one of opposite sides of the casing. The latches to rotate relative to each other to drive the tabs of the latches closer or farther apart.
Abstract:
A motherboard includes a switching circuit, a serial advanced technology attachment (SATA) connector, and a peripheral component interconnect x16 (PCIEx16) connector. The switching circuit is connected to the SATA connector and the PCIEx16 connector. The PCIEx16 is also connected to a serial attached small computer system interface (SCSI) (SAS) card. The switching circuit is disconnected from the PCIEx16 connector if a SATA hard disk drive (HDD) is connected to the SATA connector. The motherboard communicates with the SATA HDD through the switching circuit and the SATA connector. The switching circuit is connected to the PCIEx16 connector if the SATA connector is connected to an SAS HDD. The motherboard communicates with the SAS HDD through the SATA connector, the switching circuit, the PCIEx16 connector, and the SAS card.
Abstract:
A fixing apparatus includes a circuit board and a support member. A connector is installed on the circuit board. The support member includes a first connection portion to be electrically connected to an electronic device, and a second connection portion formed below the first connection portion and electrically connected to the first connection portion. The second connection portion is plugged into the connector of the circuit board, to elevate the electronic device.
Abstract:
A cable connector assembly includes a first cable connector, a second cable connector, a locking element, and a retaining frame. The first cable connector includes a first base portion. The second cable connector includes a second base portion. The retaining frame includes a front wall. The front wall defines a mounting hole. The mounting hole includes a pair of lengthwise sides and a pair of widthwise sides. The first base portion and the second base portion are slidably received in the mounting hole. The first base portion contacts one of the widthwise sides. The second base portion contacts the first base portion. The locking element is mounted in the mounting hole and squeezed between the second base portion and the other widthwise side to push the second base portion to press on the first base portion.
Abstract:
A heat dissipation device includes a number of fans and a fixing member. Each fan includes two spaced boards respectively defining a number of through holes. The fixing member is sandwiched between the boards of each fan, at a corner of the fan. The fixing member includes two engaging portions movably relative to each other. A number of pins are formed on each engaging portion for respectively engaging in the through holes of the fans.
Abstract:
A notebook computer assembly includes a notebook computer and a supporting apparatus. The notebook computer includes a main body and a display pivotably attached to the main body. The supporting apparatus includes a receiving portion for receiving the display of the notebook computer, with the main body keeping an angle with the display ranging from about 0 degrees to about 180 degrees.
Abstract:
A notebook computer assembly includes a notebook computer and a supporting member. The notebook computer includes a base and a display pivotably attached to the base. The supporting member includes a first receiving portion and a second receiving portion for receiving the display and the base respectively, for stably supporting the notebook computer in an upright position.
Abstract:
An assisting apparatus for plugging or unplugging a connector includes an elongated main body and a fixing portion extending from an end of the main body. A receiving space and a slot are respectively defined in a same side of the main body and the fixing portion. A stepped surface toward the slot is formed on a joint of the main body and the fixing portion. Two hooks respectively extend towards the slot from two opposite portions of the fixing portion bounding the slot.
Abstract:
A motherboard includes a fan and a fan control circuit. The fan control circuit includes a switch module and a voltage control circuit. A first terminal of the switch module is connected to a standby power terminal of the motherboard. A second terminal of the switch module is connected to a first power terminal of the motherboard and connected to a power terminal of the fan. An input terminal of the voltage control circuit is connected to a power state signal terminal of the motherboard. An output terminal of the voltage control circuit is connected to a control terminal of the switch module. When the motherboard is turned off, the voltage control circuit turns on the switch module for a predetermined time, to make the standby power terminal supply a working voltage for the fan to keep the fan rotating for the predetermined time.
Abstract:
An exemplary electrical connector assembly includes an insert connector and a receiving connector. The insert connector includes a first pin and a second pin. The receiving connector defines a first and a second holes corresponding to the first and second pins of the insert connector, respectively. The first hole has a shape and a size matching the first pin, and the second hole has a shape and a size matching the second pin. The first and second pins of the insert connector are respectively extendable into and engagable in the first and second holes of the receiving connector. A transverse cross sectional area of the second pin is larger than that of the first pin, whereby the second pin of the insert connector is prevented from being received in the first through hole of the receiving connector.
