A touchpad assembly, including an actuator device that provides motion in a first direction; a first structural element coupled to the actuator device; a second structural element coupled to the first structural element; wherein the first structural element, in response to the motion in the first direction provided by the actuator device, exerts a first rotational force in a first rotational direction, wherein the second structural element, in response to the first rotational force by the first structural element, exerts a second rotational force in a second rotational direction opposite to the first rotational direction, wherein the first rotational force and the second rotational force provide a rotational vibration of the touchpad assembly.

Touchpad assembly for an information handling system

Systems and methods may be implemented separately from (and external to) a battery system to detect swollen battery system components within a chassis enclosure of the information handling system, without any physical contact with the battery cells or battery system, and without requiring premature opening of the information handling system chassis enclosure to inspect for battery system swelling. A system user may be automatically warned of detected battery system swelling and/or battery system charging may be automatically terminated upon detected battery system swelling so that information handling system failure and/or system service costs that would otherwise be expended to repair damage caused by swollen battery system components may be prevented.
