An accessory suitable for an electronic device is provided. The electronic device has a display area. The accessory includes a coupling portion and a cover portion. The coupling portion is suitable to be coupled to the electronic device. The cover portion is connected to the coupling portion and is suitable for covering the display area of the electronic device. The cover portion has a plurality of light-transmitting areas, and the light-transmitting areas are arranged on the display area in an array. An image generated by the display area is projected out of the cover portion through the light-transmitting areas. Moreover, an electronic assembly containing the electronic device and the accessory is also provided. Furthermore, a control method is also provided for controlling the electronic assembly. A method is also provided for forming an accessory.

Accessory, electronic assembly, control method, and method for forming an accessory

A portable electronic device is provided, including a main body, a C-shaped member, and a hinge module, wherein the main body includes a display surface and the C-shaped member includes an opening. The hinge module pivotally connects the main body with the C-shaped member. When the main body is situated in a first position, the main body covers the opening. When the main body rotates from the first position around an axis to a second position relative to the C-shaped member via the hinge module, the main body is away from the opening. An acute angle is formed between the axis and the display surface.

Portable electronic device

A protective case is suitable for partially wrapping an electronic device. The protective case includes a casing, a kickstand and an elastic strip. The casing is suitable for partially wrapping the electronic device. The kickstand is connected to the casing. The elastic strip is located within the kickstand and elastically deforms to change a shape of the kickstand. When the casing leans against a plane, the shape of the kickstand is changed by the elastic deformation of the elastic strip so that the kickstand supports the casing in relative to the plane.

Protective case

A rotary mechanism is provided, including a first housing, a second housing, a rotary module, an elastic element, and a speed-reduction module. The rotary module connects to the first housing and extends therefrom to connect with the second housing. The elastic element connects the second housing and the rotary module. The speed-reduction module connects to the rotary module. When an external force is exerted on the second housing, and the second housing rotates relative to the first housing along a first direction, the elastic element stores an elastic potential energy. When the external force is released, the second housing rotates relative to the first housing along a second direction by the elastic force. The second direction is opposite to the first direction, and the speed-reduction module reduces the rotary speed of the second housing relative to the first housing.

Rotary mechanism

An exemplary legend printing stencil for printing a circuit substrate for manufacturing a number of printed circuit board is provided. The stencil includes at least a first printing portion, at least a second printing portion and a junction portion between the first printing portion and the second printing portion. The first printing portion and the second printing portion each define a number of legend holes therein. The first printing portion and the second portion are configured for attaching on and covering the corresponding circuit board unit of the circuit substrate to print legends on the circuit board unit. The junction portion defines a slot therein and is configured for attaching on and covering the corresponding connection portion of the circuit substrate to print a legend ink layer on the connection portion. A method for manufacturing a number of printed circuit boards using the stencil is also provided.
