摘要： A portable computing device is disclosed. The portable computing device can take many forms such as a laptop computer, a tablet computer, and so on. The portable computing device can include a single piece housing and a display module. The display module can include a protective top glass cover that is bonded to a plastic display frame and surrounded by a seal frame. The display module can also include a display panel and its associated circuitry suspended from the display frame below the protective glass cover. The display module is coupled to the single piece housing mounting clips in a manner that allows the display module to move relative to the single piece housing during an impact event. The plastic display frame can include inserts that provide structural support near openings in the single piece housing.

摘要： A methodology for connecting device components with circuitry located at different levels and orientations relative to one another is described. First circuitry can be located on a multi-plane rigid circuit board where the multi-plane rigid circuit board can include at least one flexible member sharing a common substrate with the multi-plane rigid circuit board that extends from a body portion of the multi-plane rigid circuit board. The flexible member can include traces used to convey power and/or data and an interface coupled to the power and/or data traces. The flexible member can be deflected or twisted to connect first circuitry on the body portion of the multi-plane rigid circuit board to second circuitry associated with another device component.

摘要： A display arrangement is disclosed. The display arrangement includes a flat panel display. The display arrangement further includes a display housing for the flat panel display. The display arrangement also includes an adjustable leg for supporting the display housing and thus the flat panel display in an inclined position. The display arrangement additionally includes a hinge for coupling the adjustable leg to the display housing so that the adjustable leg is pivotable relative to the display housing. The hinge is configured to provide a tilting action for adjusting the tilt angle of the display arrangement, and a collapsing action for reducing the depth of the display arrangement.
