20090098743 | Electrical Connector And Method Of Manufacturing Same - In one example, an electrical device comprises an electrical connector. The electrical connector comprises a housing comprising an interior perimeter, and a rotating section located at least partially within the interior perimeter of the housing. The rotating section comprises a section wall, a front face coupled to a first end of the section wall, a conductor set, and a prong set. The conductor set comprises a first conductor at least partially circumscribing a perimeter of the section wall at a first distance from the front face, and a second conductor at least partially circumscribing a perimeter of the section wall at a second distance from the front face. The prong set comprises a first prong protruding through the front face and coupled to the first conductor, and a second prong protruding through the front face and coupled to the second conductor. The rotating section, including the conductor set and the prong set, is rotatable relative to the interior perimeter of the housing. Other examples and embodiments are described and claimed herein. | 04-16-2009 |
20090291570 | Electrical Connector And Method Of Manufacturing Same - In one embodiment, an apparatus for providing electrical power comprises a housing, at least two electrical outlets, a rotation coupler at the housing and coupled to the at least two electrical outlets, and a prong adapter rotatable relative to the rotation coupler when secured thereto. The rotation coupler comprises a central contact, a first contact set, and a second contact set. The prong adapter comprises a first prong to couple with the first contact set, a second prong to couple with the second contact set, and a third prong to couple with the central contact. The first contact set comprises two or more first contact flanges to couple with the first prong at a rear of the prong adapter. The second contact set comprises two or more second contact flanges to couple with the second prong at the rear of the prong adapter. Other examples herein described. | 11-26-2009 |
20100097327 | Touch Screen Overlays And Methods For Manufacturing The Same - In one embodiment, a kit to enable non-visual use of a touch screen on an electronic device comprises an overlay comprising a surface, where the surface is substantially flat. A first portion of the surface comprises a smooth tactile characteristic, and a second portion of the surface comprises a first textured tactile characteristic, where the first portion is transparent and the second portion is translucent. The first textured tactile characteristic is proximate to an expected icon location at the surface of the overlay. The kit also comprises an instruction that comprises at least one of an indication of an installation of the overlay over the touch screen, or an identification of the electronic device. Other embodiments are described and claimed herein. | 04-22-2010 |
20110065290 | ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING SAME - Embodiments of electrical connectors and related methods of manufacture are described herein. Other embodiments and related methods are also disclosed herein. | 03-17-2011 |
20140197048 | MULTIPLE ORIENTATION SUPPORT FOR ELECTRONIC DEVICE WITH TOUCH SCREEN AND METHOD - Apparatus for supporting a tablet computer or an electrical device having a touch screen in multiple orientations, the apparatus including a substantially planar base, a back member, a first hinge attaching the back member to the base, a cover configured to hold the electrical device, and a connector that attaches the cover to the back member. The connector can include at least one alignment piece that aligns the cover to the back member only in certain predefined orientations including a landscape orientation and a portrait orientation, and the alignment piece inhibits the cover from being rotated about an axis perpendicular to the cover relative to the back member when the cover is attached to the back member with the connector, but the connector allows the cover to be detached from the back member and reattached in a different one of the predefined orientations. | 07-17-2014 |
