Abstract:
The present disclosure includes a fastenerless hinge system which enables a thin form factor low cost design. A hinge system described herein may include a hinge bracket and a hinge wing. The hinge bracket includes an elevated portion thereby providing a hollow region and one or more spring tabs. The hinge wing is slidably coupled to the hinge bracket through the hollow portion. Advantageously, a hinge system consistent with the present disclosure does not include fasteners such that the “Z” height of the computing device may be minimized in addition to reducing costs.
Abstract:
An apparatus is described. The apparatus includes a housing including a base and sidewalls. The housing is to support a circuit board. The apparatus also includes a heat sink to be supported by the housing independent of the circuit board. The heat sink is to be thermally coupled to a semiconductor package attached to the circuit board. The heat sink is to be closer to the base of the housing than the circuit board is to be to the base of the housing.
Abstract:
In one example a hinge assembly for an electronic device comprises a first hinge comprising a first bracket coupled to a first bushing disposed at a first end of the first bracket and rotatable about a first shaft extending through the first bushing. a second hinge comprising, a second bushing, a first linkage arm rotatable about a second shaft extending through the second bushing, and a second linkage arm rotatable about the second shaft extending through the second bushing and a third hinge comprising a second bracket coupled to a second bushing disposed at a first end of the second bracket and rotatable about a third shaft extending though the second bushing, wherein the first linkage arm is rotatably coupled to the first shaft and the second linkage arm is rotatably coupled to the third shaft. Other examples may be described.
Abstract:
In one example an electronic device comprises at least one electronic component and a body formed from a rigid material and comprising a first major surface and a second major surface opposite the first major surface, the body comprising at least one aperture extending between the first major surface and the second major surface and a cover formed from a semi-rigid material extending over the at least one aperture, wherein a portion of the cover extends through the aperture and is connected to the second major surface of the body. Other examples may be described.

Abstract:
Apparatuses, systems and methods associated with a flexible thermally conductive shunt are disclosed herein. The flexible thermally conductive shunt may include a thermally conductive element, the thermally conductive element being flexible. The flexible thermally conductive shunt may further include a thermally conductive member thermally coupled to the thermally conductive element. The thermally conductive member may include a shell and a cavity. The shell may be sealed to the thermally conductive element, wherein the thermally conductive element extends through a discontinuity of the shell. The cavity may be formed at a center of the thermally conductive member and enclosed by the shell, wherein a first portion of the thermally conductive element extends within the cavity and a second portion of the thermally conductive element extends out of the thermally conductive member via the discontinuity of the shell. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
