A portable information handling system is assembled and disassembled by a keystone assembly that couples at an upper surface of the portable housing to overlap a keyboard assembly that covers processing components disposed in the portable housing. A motherboard couples to the portable housing with a bi-stable plate having first and second portions selectively held in an engaged position and a released position by plural flexible members that flex between a first position stable one side of orthogonal to an inner portion relative to an outer portion and a second position stable on an opposite side of orthogonal. A member extending from the bi-stable plate moves relative to the motherboard to engage a notch that can be aligned with an axis of the sliding, orthogonal to the axis of the sliding or plural notches in both positions.

A portable information handling system is assembled and disassembled by a keystone assembly that couples at an upper surface of the portable housing to overlap a keyboard assembly that covers processing components disposed in the portable housing. A motherboard couples to the portable housing under the keyboard assembly with openings aligned to insert over retaining nuts extending from the housing and slides to an engaged position having contacts on a bottom surface of the motherboard interfaced with a battery connector coupled the housing. A battery rests on the housing to align contact pads at a bottom of the battery with the battery connector. A member extending from a housing cover coupled to the housing engages the battery to hold the battery in position in the housing.

A portable information handling system is assembled and disassembled by a keystone assembly that couples at an upper surface of the portable housing to overlap a keyboard assembly that covers processing components disposed in the portable housing. A motherboard couples to the portable housing under the keyboard assembly with openings aligned to insert over retaining nuts extending from the housing, the openings having a varied size so that the motherboard slides between released and engaged positions. A cooling fan couples to the motherboard adjacent to one side to retain the motherboard in the engaged position and is removed to allow the motherboard to slide to the released position. Plural cooling fans interface in series with the motherboard to provide additional cooling capacity.

A directional pad for a controller can comprise a shell, a suspension system, and a haptic actuator. The shell can include a top that has opposing upper and lower surfaces. The suspension system can be coupled to the shell and include three or more elastic arms. Each of the arms can extend between a first end that is coupled to the shell and a second end that is disposed lower than the shell and the first end of the arm. The haptic actuator can be configured to vibrate the shell.

Systems and methods described herein include a testing apparatus on which a peripheral device may be secured in a predefined, consistent orientation. The peripheral device includes a UWB antenna on a first printed circuit board that is at an angle to a second printed circuit board including one or more positioning sensors. The testing apparatus includes multiple wireless respondents at predefined distances and orientations relative to the peripheral device secured to the testing apparatus. A computing device generates a calibration vector based on measured vectors from the first printed circuit board to the wireless respondents and predetermined vectors from the second printed circuit board to the wireless respondents. The calibration vector is used to calibrate a positioning algorithm of the peripheral device that determines a position and orientation of the peripheral device relative to the peripheral device's environment.

Device positioning detection calibration systems and methods

Embodiments of this disclosure provide a user input device, such as a gaming controller, for providing input to the information handling system while executing the applications. The user input device may include a three-dimensional lighting structure, which bends across many faces or surfaces of the user input device while providing a uniform light emission. The lighting structure may be used to convey an instruction to a user, such as a direction to turn the device, convey information to the user, such as flashing to indicate a notification, and/or used to convey application feedback, such as flashing or changing lights based on events occurring in the application.

Embodiments of a new and innovative button construct include a curved button, a flexible printed circuit, and a frame. The curved button has a first, exterior side configured to be contacted by a user, and a second, interior side opposite the first, exterior side. The flexible printed circuit includes a first portion and a second portion. The first portion includes at least one touch sensor. The first portion and the second portion are folded relative to one another such that the frame is disposed between the second portion and at least the portion of the first portion including the touch sensor(s). The touch sensor(s) of the first portion is disposed between the second, interior side of the curved button and the frame.

A portable information handling system includes a touch function row between a keyboard and a display that accepts touches or proximity detection at plural locations to initiate an on-screen-display user interface for a selected of plural functions based upon a touch location. Haptic feedback to touch function row inputs is provided by a haptic device coupled directly to a bottom surface of the touch function row, such as with an adhesive. The haptic device couples to a housing cover portion with a brace that integrates a resilient member, such as a spring, to dampen vibration from a haptic vibration source to the housing cover portion.

Low profile information handling system haptic device

An installing module includes a seat bracket, a plurality of lower gaskets, a device bracket and an upper gasket. The seat bracket includes a first locking plate and a second locking plate locked to each other. The first locking plate includes a first concave and the second locking plate includes a second concave corresponding to the first concave. The lower gaskets are respectively disposed on the first concave and the second concave. The lower gaskets face each other and jointly define a lower assembly hole and are disposed on a lower side of a head-support fixer of a car seat. The device bracket is locked to the seat bracket and an electronic device is pivotally coupled to the device bracket. The upper gasket is disposed between the device bracket and the head-support fixer, and the head-support fixer is clamped between the upper gasket and the lower gaskets.

Installing module

An input device for an information handling system ay detect an adjustment to a position of a damping medium of a linear magnetic ram of the input device. The input device may generate haptic feedback based on the detected adjustment to the position of the damping medium of the linear magnetic ram of the input device.

Systems and methods for adjustable haptic damping positioning

An installing bracket is configured to be assembled to head support rods of a vehicle seat for installing an electronic device. The installing bracket includes a first locking plate and a second locking plate. The first locking plate includes a first locking portion and a first joint portion having first concaves disposed on a first side of the first joint portion. The second locking plate includes a second locking portion and a second joint portion having second concaves disposed on a second side of the second joint portion. The first locking portion is stacked on the second locking portion and locked to each other. The electronic device is locked to the first locking portion and the second locking portion. The first concaves joint with the respective second concaves to define a plurality of assembly holes for the head support rods to penetrate through.
