A displaying method for a portable device is provided. The portable device includes a top body and a bottom body, wherein the top body is stacked on the bottom body. In the displaying method, a relative sliding movement of the top body sliding along a sliding direction corresponding to the bottom body is sensed. A gravity direction of the portable device is sensed. According to a direction relationship between the gravity direction and the sliding direction, a display on the top body displays an operation frame corresponding to the direction relationship.

Displaying method and portable device

An electronic apparatus assembly including an electronic apparatus and a detachable connector is provided. The electronic apparatus has a cavity, a first magnetic element and a set of first terminals. The first magnetic element and the set of first terminals are disposed in the cavity. The detachable connector has an inserting portion, a body portion, a second magnetic element and a set of second terminals. The inserting portion is adapted to be inserted into the cavity. The body portion is connected to the inserting portion. The second magnetic element and the set of second terminals are disposed on the inserting portion. When the inserting portion is inserted into the cavity, the first magnetic element and the second magnetic element are mutually attracted. The two sets of terminals are mutually contacted, and the body portion is adapted to be supported on a plane to stand the electronic apparatus on the plane.

Electronic apparatus assembly

A handheld electronic device including a first body, a second body and a transmission mechanism is provided. The second body is stacked with the first body. The second body has a recess at a side facing the first body. The transmission mechanism includes a first plate, a second plate and a rotating member. The first plate is fixed on the first body. The second plate is slidingly coupled to the first plate. An end of the rotating member is pivoted on the second body, and another end of the rotating member is pivoted on the second plate. When the first body slides with respect to the second body toward the recess, the rotating member rotates and drives the first body enters the recess.

Handheld electronic device

An electronic apparatus is provided, which includes a first body, a second body, a supporting frame, and a pivoting-locking module. The two bodies overlap with each other. The supporting frame is pivoted onto the second body. The pivoting-locking module is disposed between the first body and the supporting frame. The pivoting-locking module includes a first pivoting-locking part and a plurality of second pivoting-locking parts. The first pivoting-locking part is fixed to the first body. The second pivoting-locking parts are movably attached to the supporting frame. When the second pivoting-locking parts are locked with the first pivoting-locking part, the second pivoting-locking parts may be pivoted relative to the first pivoting-locking part. The supporting frame may be pivoted relative to the second body only when the first body is pivoted to a predetermined position relative to the supporting frame by means of the first pivoting-locking part and the second pivoting-locking parts.

Electronic apparatus

A system for handling multi-touch input on a computing device enables the device to handle multi-touch input where each touch input is provided to a separate application executing on the device. In response to a first touch input, a first application generates and registers a first connection point with a link component. Similarly, a second application generates and registers a second connection point in response to a second touch input. The link component then provides the second connection point to the first application and notifies the first application that it should complete a communication connection with the second application. The two applications then exchange information to determine a coordinator application that will execute first in response to the input. The information exchange may include a handshake process in which each application may request or provide information and notify the other application that it will or will not execute an operation. After the coordinator is selected, the selected application executes an operation.

Method and system for handling multiple touch input on a computing device

A handheld electronic device including a first body, a second body, and a rising mechanism is provided. The second body is stacked under the first body. A side of the second body facing the first body has a depression. The rising mechanism is connected between the first body and the second body. The rising mechanism is slidably coupled to the first body, so that when the first body and the second body are relatively spread, the first body slides relative to the rising mechanism. In addition, when the first body reaches a predetermined position, an end of the first body enters the depression, the rising mechanism drives the first body to rotate relative to the second body, and an upper surface of the first body and an upper surface of the second body form an angle.

Handheld electronic device and rising mechanism

A handheld electronic device including a lower body, an upper body, a sliding mechanism and a pivot axle is provided. The lower body has a carrying surface and a recess on the carrying surface. The upper body is disposed on the carrying surface. The sliding mechanism is disposed between the upper body and the lower body for driving the upper body sliding relative to the lower body. The pivot axle is disposed between the sliding mechanism and the lower body. When the handheld electronic device is transformed from a retracting state to a spreading state, an end of the upper body enters the recess, and the carrying surface of the lower body and a top surface of the upper body form an included angle.

A handheld electronic device including a first body, a second body, a sliding block and a linkage mechanism is provided. The first body is stacked on the second body. The sliding block is located between the first body and the second body, and is slidably coupled to the first body. The linkage mechanism is connected between the sliding block and the second body, by which while the first body and the second body are spread in a direction, the first body and the second body are approximately coplanar. Therefore, space in the device can be used efficiently. Besides, the device can be more miniaturized and operated more conveniently.

A connector includes a first housing, a second housing, a screw, and a resilient lever. The first housing defines a through hole and the second housing has a threaded post. The screw passes through the through hole and fastens to the threaded post. The resilient lever includes a hook for sustaining a pulling force. The resilient lever is rotatably connected to the threaded post so that the pulling force is substantially aligned with the threaded post.
