US Patent:

20170168529, Jun 15, 2017

Filed:

May 20, 2014

Appl. No.:

15/312167

Inventors:

- Singapore, SG
Robert Haden Garrett - San Francisco CA, US

International Classification:

G06F 1/20
G06F 1/16

Abstract:

According to various embodiments, a housing for a computer system may be provided. The housing may include: an upper portion configured to hold an input device of the computer system; a lower portion comprising a foot of the housing for the computer system; and a pressure drop reducing mechanism configured to increase an airflow between the upper portion and the lower portion by moving the lower portion away from the upper portion.

Robert Garrett - San Francisco CA, US
Aaron Julin - San Francisco CA, US

International Classification:

H01H 36/02
H01H 13/83
H01H 13/14

Abstract:

A key that includes a body with an optically transmissive or light permeable region and an optical film coupled to or carried by the light permeable region is disclosed. The key also includes a resilient structure coupled to the body. The key can be assembled or coupled to, or disposed relative or adjacent to, a display screen. The key also includes a switch actuator (e.g., an electromechanical switch actuator or contact element). Displacement of the key, more specifically the body of the key, displaces the switch actuator for actuating a switch. The resilient structure is configured to bias the body at a first position. The body can be actuated or displaced from the first position to a second position for effectuating corresponding displacement of the switch actuator and actuation of the switch. The resilient structure provides a positive tactile feedback upon user-directed or user-controlled actuation or displacement of the body.

International Classification:

H01L 23/427
G06F 1/20
B23P 15/26

Abstract:

According to various embodiments, a computer system may be provided. The computer system may include: a housing with a protrusion; a heat generating device; a heat exchanger; and a heat pipe configured to transfer heat from a first end of the heat pipe to a second end of the heat pipe. The first end of the heat pipe may be coupled to the heat generating device. The second end of the heat pipe may be coupled to the heat exchanger. The second end of the heat pipe may be arranged in the protrusion of the housing.

Abstract:

A key that includes a body with an optically transmissive or light permeable region and an optical film coupled to or carried by the light permeable region. The key also includes a resilient structure coupled to the body. The key can be assembled or coupled to, or disposed relative or adjacent to, a display screen. The key also includes a switch actuator (e.g., an electromechanical switch actuator or contact element). Displacement of the key, more specifically the body of the key, displaces the switch actuator for actuating a switch. The resilient structure is configured to bias the body at a first position. The body can be actuated or displaced from the first position to a second position for effectuating corresponding displacement of the switch actuator and actuation of the switch. The resilient structure provides or establishes a positive tactile feedback upon user-directed or user-controlled actuation or displacement of the body. The resilient structure and/or the switch actuator is positioned and configured to minimize, reduce, or eliminate obstruction of light transmission through the light permeable region of the body.
