International Classification:

H01Q 1/24

US Classification:

343702, 343700 MS

Abstract:

Handheld electronic devices are provided that contain wireless communications circuitry. The wireless communications circuitry may include antenna structures. To accommodate manufacturing variations, the antenna structures and handheld electronic devices may be characterized by performing measurements such as antenna performance measurements. Appropriate antenna adjustments may be made during manufacturing of a handheld electronic device based on the characterizing measurements. An antenna may be formed using an inverted-F design in which an antenna flex circuit is mounted to a dielectric antenna support structure. Cavities in the support may be selectively filled with dielectric material and dielectric patches may be added to the antenna flex circuit to adjust the dielectric loading of the antenna. The length of a ground return path in the antenna may be adjusted by appropriate positioning of an electrical connector within the ground return path.

International Classification:

G06F 1/16

US Classification:

36167941, 36167955

Abstract:

Embodiments of the present invention disclose a dual-orientation docking apparatus for a mobile computing device. According to one embodiment, the docking apparatus includes a main body having a first side and a second side perpendicular to the first side. A docking connector is disposed on the first side of the main body, and a locking member formed on the second side of the main body. Furthermore, the locking member is configured to automatically engage and maintain a mobile computing device in a docked state when the mobile device is moved from a first orientation to a second orientation.

Abstract:

An example computing device may include a housing having an outer panel, the outer panel comprising a first array of openings through the outer panel, an inner panel opposite the outer panel, the inner panel comprising a second array of openings and a third array of openings different than the second array of openings and an actuator to move the inner panel relative to the outer panel between (1) a first position in which the second array of openings are at least partially aligned with the first array of openings and the third array of openings are out of alignment with the first array of openings, and (2) a second position in which the third array of openings are at least partially aligned with the first array of openings and the second array of openings are out of alignment with the first array of openings.
