20220357772 · 2022-11-10 ·

The present invention relates to the field of communications device housings, namely housings for the support and protection of hand-held electronic devices having data input features and video screens. In particular, the present invention relates to housings for communications devices such as smartphones, for example, which housings protect the communications devices and can be easily cleaned. The housing consists of two interacting housing parts to protect a smartphone therein, wherein the first housing part comprises sliding channels (35) into which tabs (34) of the second housings slide when the two housings are slit together to be closed. The end of the sliding channels (35) comprise a detent member (36) into which the tabs (34) engage when the housing is closed. A locking mechanism (29) is provided which fixes the both hosing parts when closed.

COMPUTING DEVICES WITH RETRACTABLE HINGES

An example computing device includes: a display housing including a first recess and a base including a second recess; and a hinge to rotate the display housing from a closed configuration to an open configuration, the hinge comprising: a central bar; a first link coupled to the central bar at a first pivot point, the first link rotatable about the first pivot point; and a second link coupled to the central bar at a second pivot point, the second link rotatable about the second pivot point; and wherein in response to the display housing rotating to the open configuration, a first sliding end of the first link is to retract into the first recess and a second sliding end of the second link is to retract into the second recess.

ELECTRONIC DEVICE WITH METAL FRAME ANTENNA

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a housing and a connection part. The housing includes a first housing portion that includes a first side face, and a second housing portion that includes a second side face. The connection part connects the first housing portion and the second housing portion. A first conductive member extends along at least a portion of the first side face, a first non-conductive member is disposed on the first side face, a second conductive member extends along at least a portion of the second side face, a second non-conductive member is disposed on the second side face, and when the second housing portion faces the first housing portion, the first non-conductive member and the second non-conductive member are substantially aligned.

Electronic device including front plate slidable in both directions

An electronic device according to an embodiment includes: a front plate facing a first direction; a rear plate facing a second direction opposite to the first direction; and a support member including a first camera and a second camera, and disposed between the front plate and the rear plate, and, when the front plate slides in a third direction in a first state in which the first camera is occluded by the front plate and the second camera is occluded by the rear plate, the electronic device is configured into a second state in which the first camera is visible, and when the front plate slides in a fourth direction opposite to the third direction in the first state, the support member is configured to slide along with the front plate and the electronic device is configured into a third state in which the second camera is visible.

ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING ROLLABLE DISPLAY

A housing of an electronic device according to an embodiment may include a combination of at least two housings, and the entire size or length of the electronic device may change according to relative movement between the housings. The electronic device may comprise: a flexible display configured to expand or contract according to a change in size of the electronic device. A portion of the flexible display may be inserted into the housing when the housing contracts and may be drawn out of the housing when the housing expands. The electronic device may comprise a distance sensor and/or an expansion sensor. The distance sensor is configured to measure a change in a relative distance of the housing, and the expansion sensor senses a contraction or expansion state of the housing, thereby contributing to correcting data measured by the distance sensor. The electronic device employing the distance sensor and/or the expansion sensor can accurately sense the size of an externally visible portion of a display and can display a screen appropriate to the size of the visible portion of the display.

ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING PLURALITY OF DISPLAYS AND METHOD OF OPERATING SAME

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a housing, a first display slidable through the housing and having at least a portion exposed to the outside through the housing, wherein the area exposed to the outside, of the first display is changeable on the basis of the sliding through the housing, a second display spaced apart from the at least an exposed portion of the first display by a predetermined distance, and disposed on a plane together with the at least an exposed portion, and at least one processor disposed within the housing, wherein the at least one processor is configured to display first content on the first display and display second content on the second display.

ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR PROVIDING INFORMATION AND/OR FUNCTIONS THROUGH ICON, AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING SAME

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a flexible display, and a processor disposed, wherein the processor is configured to display, by the electronic device, a first shortcut icon for executing a first application on the flexible display where a first portion of the flexible display is exposed to an outside, detect a first input for exposing a second portion including the first portion of the flexible display to the outside, and based on the first input, display the first shortcut icon on the second portion as a first extended shortcut icon, if a size of the second portion is greater than or equal to a first threshold size, wherein the first extended shortcut icon may include at least one menu for executing a designated function of the first application.

ADJUSTABLE CAMERA UNIT ON LAPTOP COMPUTER
20230033457 · 2023-02-02 ·

For common Laptop Computer or Notebook Computer, this present invention enables the Monitor Screen part of the computer body adjustable in height but remain attached to the rest of the computer body which usually includes keyboard. This present invention will limit it's Claim applicable only to Laptop or Notebook Computers, not to Desktop Computers nor Mobile Phones. It is common these days, that Laptop or Notebook Computers have pre-installed camera on top center of the monitor screen.

This present invention enables the user to bring the pre-installed camera to the eye level, capturing more desirable eye level angle of the user-presenter in online communication.

TERMINAL WITH ADJUSTABLE SCREEN SIZE
