    Abstract: Particular embodiments described herein provide for an electronic device that can be configured to include a chassis, where the chassis includes a first chassis portion and a second chassis portion, a flexible display supported by the chassis, and a hinge. The hinge includes a first chassis attachment housing coupled to the first chassis portion, a first chassis portion lift arm coupled to the first chassis attachment housing, a first hinge pivot coupled to the first chassis portion lift arm, a second chassis attachment housing coupled to the second chassis portion, a second chassis portion lift arm coupled to the second chassis attachment housing, and a second hinge pivot coupled to the second chassis portion lift arm. The first chassis portion lift arm extends to increase a first distance between the first chassis attachment housing and the first hinge pivot and the second chassis portion lift arm extends to increase a second distance between the second chassis attachment housing and the second hinge pivot as the flexible display is bent.

    Abstract: Techniques for fan mechanisms with adjustable side vents are disclosed. In one embodiment, a fan housing has several side vents that can direct airflow to components around the fan housing. Vent covers can block the vents, directing the airflow to the primary vent and the heatsink for the processor and other components. When the speed of a fan in the fan housing is increased, the vent covers open, directing airflow to components around the fan housing. In another embodiment, several vent channels are defined in the vent housing. A motor connected to a vent barrier can move the vent barrier to block or unblock the vent channels, allowing for control of airflow. In another embodiment, a fan channel module with one or more vent channels can be attached to the fan housing, allowing for a flexible array of airflow patterns for the same fan housing.

    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture related to foldable electronic devices are disclosed herein. An example apparatus disclosed herein includes a gear set, a first pair of rotational arms coupled to the gear set, and a first guide set carried by the first pair of rotational arms and couplable to a display of the electronic device, the first guide set having a first guide on a first side of the gear set and a second guide on a second side of the gear set, the second side opposite the first side, wherein the gear set is to rotate the first pair of rotational arms to move the electronic device between an opened orientation and a closed orientation, the first pair of rotational arms to bring the first guide of the first guide set into proximity with the second guide of the first guide set in the closed orientation to cause the display to have a waterdrop cross-sectional shape in the closed orientation.

    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed at automatically opening hinged components of computing devices. One of the computing devices and a hinged component may include an electrical winding or coil while the other may include a magnet. When current is applied to the electrical winding (e.g., in a direction opposite of the North/South direction of the magnets' magnetic field), the electrical winding may generate a magnetic field opposite that repels the magnet's magnetic field. The magnetic repulsion may cause the hinged component to separate from the rest of the computing device, thereby opening the hinged component. When the current is removed from the electrical winding, the electrical winding may no longer generate a magnetic field, enabling the hinged component to be closed.

    Abstract: A vapor chamber architecture for multiple cavity/heat source system designs. The vapor chamber architecture can be customized in dimensions to cool two or more spatially separated, and potentially heterogeneous, heat sources in a system floor plan. The vapor chamber architecture can additionally be customized to concurrently manage the cooling requirements for the two or more heat sources that have different power consumptions and sizes. The provided vapor chamber architecture can be manufactured using etching processes, additive manufacturing processes, or the like.
