Systems, methods and products are described that provide predictive power state transitions for information handling devices. One aspect includes ascertaining a power state transitioning pattern of an information handling device; responsive to a power state transition to a first lower power state at the information handling device, performing an additional power state transition to automatically transition the information handling device to a second lower power state, the second lower power state being a lower power state relative to the first lower power state; and proactively resuming the information handling device to the first lower power state responsive to a timing threshold being met; wherein the timing threshold is determined based on the power state transitioning pattern ascertained. Other embodiments are described.

Predictive power state transitions for information handling devices

An assembly can include a first component; a second component that includes a socket; a processor and a memory accessible by the processor, the processor and memory being included in one or more of the first component and the second component; and an interconnection mechanism for pivotable interconnection of the first component and the second component about a pivot axis where the interconnection mechanism includes a hinge that defines the pivot axis, a prong pivotable about the pivot axis, a latch mechanism to latch the second component to the interconnection mechanism with the prong received by the socket of the second component, an actuator to unlatch the latch mechanism, and a lever to adjust the hinge to a high stiffness state to adjust the hinge to a low stiffness state. Various other apparatuses, systems, methods, etc., are also disclosed.

Adjustable hinge stiffness

An assembly can include a first component; a second component; and an interconnection mechanism for pivotable interconnection of the first component and the second component about a pivot axis where the interconnection mechanism includes a latch mechanism to latch the second component to the interconnection mechanism, an actuator to unlatch the latch mechanism, an obstruction to obstruct actuation of the actuator, and a sliding bar slidable in a first direction to move the obstruction to an obstructing position that obstructs actuation of the actuator and slidable in a second direction to move the obstruction to an unobstructing position that permits actuation of the actuator. Various other apparatuses, systems, methods, etc., are also disclosed.
