Abstract:
An electronic device is provided. In some embodiments, the electronic device includes an a battery having a first electrical connector at a first end, a second electrical connector at a second end, and electrical conductors extending from the first connector to the second connector, a first circuit board connected to the first connector, and a second circuit board connected to the second connector. The first circuit board is electrically connected with the second circuit board through the electrical conductors.
Abstract:
A universal mount is able to accommodate mobile hand-holdable electronic devices of various sizes having a device lower edge spaced from a device upper edge. The universal mount has a housing sub-assembly having a housing sub-assembly base-plate with a lower mount attached thereto and configured to releaseably receive the device lower edge. A movable latch-plate sub-assembly, having an upper mount attached thereto, is disposed in and slideably attached to the housing sub-assembly. The upper mount, aligned with the lower mount at an adjustable position above and relative to the lower mount, is configured to releaseably receive the device upper edge. A support-plate sub-assembly is fixedly disposed in the housing. The movable latch-plate sub-assembly is slideably attached to the support-plate sub-assembly. A back-plate sub-assembly is attached to the housing sub-assembly and encloses the movable latch-plate sub-assembly and the support-plate sub-assembly in the housing sub-assembly.
Abstract:
Examples are disclosed herein that relate to curved batteries. One example provides a battery comprising an anode arranged on an anode substrate, a cathode arranged on a cathode substrate, the anode substrate being curved at a first curvature and the cathode substrate being curved at a second curvature, and a separator between the anode and the cathode. A thickness of the anode substrate and a thickness of the cathode substrate are determined based on the curvature of the respective substrate, such that the one of the anode substrate and the cathode substrate with a larger curvature has a larger thickness.
Abstract:
Embodiments of an electronic device comprising an enclosure and electrical components disposed at least partially inside the enclosure, wherein the enclosure comprises a substrate having a tactile surface are disclosed. The tactile surface may include a textured surface, a coated surface or a coated textured surface that exhibits a low fingerprint visibility, when a fingerprint is applied to the tactile surface. In one or more embodiments, the substrate exhibits an average transmittance of about 80% or greater over the visible spectrum, a coefficient of friction less than about 0.3, a surface roughness Ra of about 500 nm or greater, and either one or both a transmission haze greater than about 60%, and a reflection haze at either 2 degrees from specular or 5 degrees from specular greater than 60%.
Abstract:
A device includes a housing with a recessed area and a raised peripheral section surrounding the recessed area, wherein the recessed area is recessed with respect to the raised peripheral section. A gripping mechanism is provided in the recessed area. The gripping mechanism is adjustable to hold portable electronic devices of a plurality of different sizes. A light source is provided in the raised peripheral section, to emit light from the raised peripheral section.
Abstract:
A dynamically flexible, attachable article, such as a wristband or an armband, includes a flexible electronic component coupled to a flexible support in a manner that is bendable or conformable to a user's wrist or other curved surface in a manner that makes the flexible electronic component easily viewable to the user. The attachable article also includes a connection mechanism disposed proximate to one or both of first and second ends of the attachable article to connect two different portions of the article together.
Abstract:
A mobile device assembly comprises a display module having a display assembly, the display assembly having a front surface, a back surface, and a peripheral edge surface; a chassis supporting the display module from the back surface of the display assembly; and a circumferential frame having a front frame portion defining a front opening smaller than a display module width. The display module is pressed between the front frame portion and the chassis. The chassis is attached, by means of an adhesive, to the circumferential frame.
