Abstract: The described embodiments relate generally to methods to form magnetic assemblies. In particular, extreme cold work (aka cold spray) is used to enhance magnetic properties of a steel alloy (most notably 316L stainless steel and others) that can then be formed into useful shapes and embedded within a substrate without undue machining operations.

Abstract: An electronic device may include flexible printed circuits. A flexible printed circuit may have metal traces supported by a polymer substrate. The flexible printed circuit may extend between an upper laptop computer housing and a lower laptop computer housing or other structures that move relative to each other in an electronic device. The flexible printed circuit may have a low-friction coating and a matte finish. The flexible printed circuit may have a fluoropolymer coating on the polymer substrate, a fluoropolymer coating on a matte coating on the polymer substrate, a fluoropolymer coating that includes a matting agent on the polymer substrate, a fluoropolymer layer or other polymer layer that is attached to the substrate with a layer of adhesive, a textured surface layer, and/or other structures that help provide the flexible printed circuit with desired physical properties and a desired appearance.

Abstract: An electronic device may be provided having an organic light-emitting diode display and control circuitry for operating the display. The display may include one or more display layers interposed between the control circuitry and a display layer having thin-film transistors. The electronic device may include a coupling structure interposed between the layer of thin-film transistors and the control circuitry that electrically couples the layer of thin-film transistors to the control circuitry. The coupling structure may include a dielectric member having a conductive via, a flexible printed circuit having a bent portion, or a conductive via formed in an encapsulation layer of the display. The display may include a layer of opaque masking material. The layer of opaque masking material may be formed on an encapsulation layer, an organic emissive layer, a thin-film transistor layer, or a glass layer of the organic light-emitting diode display.

Abstract: The described embodiments relate generally to liquid crystal displays (LCDs), and more particularly to methods for extending a glass portion of a display to an edge of a display housing. In one embodiment, a thin cover glass layer is provided between a color filter glass layer and an upper polarizer. The thin cover glass layer is supported along an edge of the display by a filler material that can include a foam dam and a glass spacer or adhesive filler. The filler material allows the cover glass layer to be supported without damaging any drivers or circuits located on an underlying thin film transistor glass layer. In another embodiment, a glass spacer circuit with integrated drivers and circuitry on its lower surface can support the cover glass along the edge of the display.

Abstract: An electronic device may be provided with upper and lower housing portions that are separated by a gap. Hinge structures may allow the upper housing portion to rotate between a closed position and an open position. A flexible printed circuit in the electronic device may be coupled between components in the upper housing portion such as the display and components in the lower housing portion and may span the gap. A hinge gap cover may cover the gap and may overlap the flexible printed circuit to block the flexible printed circuit from view when the upper housing portion is in the closed position. The hinge gap cover may be formed from a layer of radio-transparent material that is rotatably coupled to the upper housing portion and that is biased towards the lower housing with a spring structure.

Abstract: An electronic device can include a processor, output device(s) coupled thereto, and an outer housing or enclosure containing these and other electronic and/or optical items. The enclosure can include a substantially thin contoured component having an external surface exposed to a user and an internal surface. A stiffening plate situated with respect to the internal surface provides a substantial increase in the torsional stiffness and/or bending stiffness of the enclosure. The stiffening plate and contoured component can form a cavity therebetween, and one or more ridges, fins, plates, foam structures and/or other structural items can be located within the cavity. In various embodiments, the device can be a laptop computer and the contoured component can be a dome shaped outer housing behind the display portion thereof.

Abstract: Low-profile computer supports include features to reduce the thickness and improve the portability or storage capability of a computer system while it is disassembled, packaged, shipped, or moved. Some computer systems have a computing device and a dock device that can be stored and moved separately or that can store or support accessories associated with the computer system. Some computer systems have a movable stand configured to transition between a collapsed state and a deployed or standing state. Some stands include handles or grips for moving the computer systems while collapsed. Other computer systems include handles or grips to provide areas to more easily carry the computer systems. The handles or grips can have features such as a flexible material to hide or mask their appearance on the computer system.
