摘要:
Flat blade antenna and flip mounting structures and associated methods include biasing the flat blade antenna to travel beyond a predetermined angle of rotation to separate from the flip in the open position. The flat blade antenna and flip are mounted to the radiotelephone via dual hinges and have low turning force components which provide a predetermined force vector to facilitate the blade antenna opening to a desired operative position. The flat blade antenna rotates separate from the flip. The flat blade antenna can open to an angular position greater than the adjacently mounted flip. The biasing mounting configuration provides turning forces which facilitates both the opening and closing of the antenna.

Radiotelephones include flat blade antennas and flip configurations. The flat blade antenna and flip are mounted to the radiotelephone via dual hinges. The flat blade antenna is configured to be captured by the flip to define a cover in the stow position. The flat blade antenna rotates separate from the flip. The flat blade antenna opens to an angular position greater than the adjacently mounted flip.

A flip cover and antenna assembly for a portable phone is disclosed as being rotatably coupled to a main housing thereof. The flip cover and antenna assembly includes a first flip cover housing, a second flip cover housing matable with the first flip cover housing, and an antenna element positioned between the first and second flip cover housings. The antenna element further includes a ground plane bonded to the ground plane first surface. A dielectric foam is positioned over any remaining area of the ground plane first surface. The first and second flip cover housings have flanges which extend from at least a portion thereof to wrap around corresponding edges of the main housing, which enables extensions of the ground plane to be provided conforming to the flanges. The ground plane may also be patterned in order to control the radiation pattern thereof and limit any interference from other components of the portable phone. The flip cover and antenna assembly may also include a second antenna in the form of a printed circuit antenna or a monopole antenna.

A hands-free headset includes first and second earpieces and is configured such that the second earpiece is integrally mounted to and stowed against the first earpiece during mono-communications operation or during storage. The headset includes two retractable cords which engage with a portable communications device. A sliding grommet attached to the retractable cords controls the separation of the cords and facilitates the two cords being reeled into a common cord reel. The headset also includes a switch which directs the desired electrical path to either stereo listening or communications operation. The headset further includes a docking platform which can be attached to the body of the portable communications device for storage and which holds the integral mounted earpieces against the cord storage reel for an aesthetic stowed hands-free device.

An integrated circuit includes an integrated circuit die having first and second opposing faces, a plurality of spaced apart bonding regions on the first face, and at least one groove in the second face. The at least one groove allows the die to flex upon application of stress to the bonding regions due to thermal cycling of the integrated circuit die, compared to absence of the at least one groove. Preferably, multiple grooves are provided, a respective one of which extends between a respective pair of adjacent spaced apart bonding regions. The grooves may be fabricated by sawing and/or etching the grooves in the second face. The sawing and/or etching may be performed at the wafer stage, before the integrated circuit dies are singulated. Alternatively, the sawing and/or etching may take place after the integrated circuit dies are singulated from the wafer.

A shield for an electronic device having a pair of cooperating printed circuit boards includes an integrated connector for connecting the printed circuit boards. The shield is provided with a frame attachable between the circuit boards and structure attached to the frame for supporting a connector that electrically connects the circuit boards. In one embodiment, the contacts of the connector are embedded in a sub-frame attached to the frame. In another embodiment, a connector holder is formed with the frame for supporting a connector that connects the printed circuit boards. By virtue of the unitary structure, problems associated with tolerance stack-up can be eliminated, and usable printed circuit board area can be maximized.

A thin flexible antenna has radiating elements made of thin nickel-titanium, a highly flexible and rigid alloy. The radiating elements are covered with silicone elastomer dielectric layers that have suitable elongation properties to withstand extreme bending stresses outer jackets cover the antenna. The outer jackets have a textured exterior surface that evenly distributes the bending stresses across the antenna.

A termination contact for an antenna that has a Ni--Ti radiating element is formed by a layer of electrically conductive carbon filler disposed on the Ni--Ti radiating element. A conductive element is positioned on the layer of conductive carbon filler to provide electrical interface between the Ni--Ti radiating element and external RF circuitry. In to prevent contamination, a protective layer of silicon elastomer covers the conductive layer and the Ni--Ti radiating element such that a portion of the conductive element is exposed to provide a RF feed point.

A shock and vibration attenuating structure and method is provided for an electronic assembly including a distribution circuit and at least one electronic component mounted on a surface of the distribution circuit. The shock and vibration attenuating structure includes a layer of elastomer material adapted to overlay the distribution circuit and substantially conform to the at least one electronic component. The layer includes a negative image of at least part of the at least one electronic component to allow the elastomer material to envelope the at least part of the at least one electronic component, and at least one relief formed in the elastomer material. The at least one relief is spaced from the negative image of the at least one electronic component and has a predetermined size, shape, and location in the elastomer material selected to protect the electronic component from shock and vibration induced loads and deflections with the layer overlaying the electronic assembly.
