11520385 · 2022-12-06 · ·

A mobile device temperature-regulating case is disclosed. Mobile devices, such as tablet computers and smartphones, may be exposed to extreme temperatures, such as extreme cold and extreme heat. Under these extreme temperatures, the mobile devices may not function properly or at all. In that regard, the mobile device temperature-regulating case is configured to at least partially encase a side of the mobile device and conductively cool and/or heat the side of the mobile device. For example, a solid-state heat pump may conductively cool the side of the mobile device, with a fan convectively cooling the solid-state heat pump. In this way, temperature of the mobile device may be kept less than or greater than a predetermined temperature so that the mobile device may function properly.

Electronic device for confirming whether submergence has occurred by using submergence sensing circuit, and operating method of electronic device

Disclosed in various embodiments are an electronic device, the electronic device comprising: a power control circuit for controlling power supplied to at least one component of the electronic device; at least one submergence recognition circuit including a first pole connected to at least one port of the power control circuit, and a second pole connected to a ground; a processor electrically connected to the power control circuit; and a memory electrically connected to the processor, wherein the memory can be configured, during execution thereof, to store instructions for allowing the processor to: control the power control circuit such that power is supplied to the submergence recognition circuit; sense a current flowing from the submergence recognition circuit to the power control circuit; and determine, on the basis of the sensing result of the current, whether an area in which the submergence recognition circuit is arranged has been submerged.

High performance removable storage devices

The present disclosure relates to a device for reading from and/or writing to a removable storage card. The device can comprise a housing including a wall defining a housing opening sized to receive a removable storage card. The device can also comprise a thermal management system attached to at least a part of the wall of the housing. Additionally, the device can comprise a biasing mechanism interoperable with the housing and configured to bias a card surface of the removable storage card into thermal communication with the thermal management system in response to insertion of the removable storage card into the housing opening. In some aspects, the biasing mechanism includes one or more elastic members configured to apply a biasing force to the removable storage card in response to the insertion of the removable storage card into the housing opening.

Mobile device case with bonded soft resin insert and shell

A case for a mobile device includes a frame and an elastomeric shell. The elastomeric shell is received in the frame and has an outer surface, an inner surface opposite the outer surface and configured for receiving the mobile device, and a rim extending between the outer surface and the inner surface. The inner surface forms inner projections each having an inner extremity extending toward an inside of the elastomeric shell and each being configured for contact with the mobile device when arranged in the inner surface. The outer surface forms outer projections defining respective outer projection extremities and forms outer troughs extending between the outer projections and defining outer trough extremities. The outer projections extend toward a frame inner perimeter of the frame such that each of the outer trough extremities is spaced further from the frame than adjacent ones of the outer projection extremities.
