Control panel

According to examples, an apparatus may include a base, a sliding assembly slideably coupled to the base, and a sensor assembly coupled to the sliding assembly. The sliding assembly may moveably support a control panel and the sensor assembly may sense positions of the sliding assembly relative to the base. The sensor assembly may include a first sensor to sense that the sliding assembly is in a first position relative to the base, and a second sensor to sense that the sliding assembly is in a second position relative to the base. A sensed state of the first sensor and a sensed state of the second sensor may be used to determine that the sliding assembly is in a third position relative to the base.

Sensor assemblies coupled to sliding assemblies for position sensing

According to examples, an apparatus may include a body and a control panel assembly coupled to the body. The control panel assembly may include a base plate coupled to the body, a display panel coupled to the base plate, and an input device coupled to the display panel. In some examples, the control panel assembly may move from a first position in which the display panel is at least partially retracted in the body to a second position in which the display panel and the input device are extended out from the body. The display panel may be positioned at a first predefined angle relative to the base plate and the input device may be positioned at a second predefined angle relative to the display panel.

Control panel assemblies having rotatable input devices

According to examples, an apparatus may include a guide frame, a standard position pawl movably attached to the guide frame, the standard position pawl to engage a standard pawl detent. The apparatus may also include a custom position pawl movably engaged with the guide frame, the custom position pawl to engage custom pawl teeth of a rack. The apparatus may further include a switch in movable engagement with the guide frame, the switch being movable between a first position at which the custom position pawl is maintained at a disengaged position with respect to the custom pawl teeth of the rack and a second position at which the custom position pawl is free to move between the disengaged position and an engaged position with respect to the custom pawl teeth of the rack.

Movable guides for media trays

In an example, an apparatus includes a body moveable relative to a housing, a port coupled to the body, and a guide member to guide the body between positions to reveal the port. In another example, an electronics device includes a port area defined by a housing, a cover to cover the port area in a first orientation, a guide to allow the cover to rotate to a second orientation to reveal the port area, and a positioner member to bias the cover into the first orientation or the second orientation.

Reveal ports

Printer

A printed circuit assembly includes a printed circuit board, a heat generating component coupled to the printed circuit board, and a conductive substrate extending parallel to the printed circuit board. The conductive substrate includes a flexing structure and a protrusion disposed on the flexing structure. The protrusion extends toward the printed circuit board opposite the heat generating component.

Heat sinking

A printed circuit assembly includes a printed circuit board, a heat generating component attached to the printed circuit board at a first location, a formed conductive substrate including a protrusion extending toward the printed circuit board corresponding to the heat generating component, and a thermally conductive pad disposed between the printed circuit board and the protrusion of the formed substrate. The formed conductive substrate is configured to flex the protrusion to relieve stress at the heat generating component attachment.

Embodiments of example apparatuses and methods for changing nip pressure are described.
