20090195132 | ADJUSTABLE PIVOTING PANEL DISPLAY AND/OR STORAGE SYSTEM WITH ADJACENT PANEL NON-INTERFERENCE FEATURE - A storage system includes a mounting structure having one or more mounting pivot devices positioned thereon. The storage system also includes one or more frames defining a first edge and a second edge with frame pivot devices positioned coaxially therebetween. At least one of the frames has one or more storage receptacles disposed thereon. Each of the mounting pivot devices engages respective frame pivot devices such that the frames are movably positioned on the mounting structure. According to another aspect of the present invention, the storage system includes one or more delimiter wheels having an engagement surface located thereon. The delimiter wheels are rotatably positioned on the first and/or the second edges of a frame. The engagement surfaces of adjacent delimiter wheels movably and adjustably engage one another and space the frames apart from one another. | 08-06-2009 |

20110221319 | Tablet Computer Case for Multiple Viewing Orientations - In one example, we describe a case (otherwise known as a sleeve, holder, portfolio, jacket, or shell) for an electronic device, such as a tablet computer. This case allows the user to protect and personalize their tablet computer. This case has the unique property of allowing the user to position the device for viewing in either portrait or landscape mode. This is an increasing useful function as media (such as videos) are engaging the users for longer periods of time. This case does not require the user to hold the device in the desired orientation. In another example, we describe a distinct hinge, with a stop that limits its rotational travel allowing the user to prop the tablet computer up, at a viewing angle. In another alternative, this friction hinge can have an angular zone of travel, where little or no friction is encountered. | 09-15-2011 |
20130119842 | AUTOMATICALLY CLOSING HINGE AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE USING SUCH HINGE - In an automatically closing hinge, a first body and a second body are mounted on a fixed shaft, and axial and radial moving members are adjacently disposed inside the fixed shaft. The second body pivoting rearward in relation to the first body enables an inward radial movement of the radial moving member, and during the inward radial movement the radial moving member causes a forward axial movement of the axial moving member. An energy storing member in the fixed shaft is configured to store energy during the forward axial movement of the axial moving member and to release energy for driving the axial moving member to make a reverse axial movement. During the reverse axial movement the axial moving member pushes the radial moving member to make an outward radial movement. The radial moving member during such outward radial movement drives the second body to pivot forward. | 05-16-2013 |
20130214661 | Folding Tablet Keyboard Case - A folding tablet keyboard case comprising a tablet cover having exterior and interior sides with circumferential edges, a keyboard cover having exterior and interior sides cover with circumferential edges and, and a spine including at least one or more folding hinges, where the spine connects the tablet cover and the keyboard cover and wherein a portion of the spine comprises a portion of the keyboard cover. The tablet keyboard case provides for at least four general configurations that provide for a streamlined form factor in the open tablet position, closed tablet position, open keyboard position and tilted tablet position. The tablet keyboard case uses reusable fasteners to detachably secure the tablet keyboard case in the desired configuration. | 08-22-2013 |
20140035453 | Home Appliance Having Movable Door Handle - A home appliance having a door which may be opened and closed, and more particularly, a home appliance to assist a user in easily opening or closing a door is disclosed. The home appliance includes a cabinet having a chamber in which an object is received or retrieved, a door to open or close the chamber, and a handle assembly to be rotated relative to the door during opening or closing of the door, wherein rotation of the handle assembly causes the door to be rotated about a door rotating axis. | 02-06-2014 |
20140175963 | CASE ASSEMBLY - A case assembly includes an upper case, a lower case, a pivot, a first shaft, a second shaft, and a stopper. The pivot is pivotally connected to the lower case, such that the upper case is able to rotate with respect to the lower case. The stopper has a shaft hole, a guiding slot hole, and a fixing slot hole. The shaft hole is disposed at one end of the stopper, and fixing slot hole is disposed at the other end of the stopper. The fixing slot hole communicates with the guiding slot hole. The first and the second shafts respectively insert into the shaft hole and the guiding slot hole. When the upper case rotates with respect to the lower case, the second shaft is stuck in the fixing slot hole from the guiding slot hole. | 06-26-2014 |
