Abstract:
Systems (100) and methods (1400) for detecting removal and attempted removals of an electronic component from an electronic device. The methods comprising: disposing the electronic component (112) on the electronic device such that a conductive surface of the electronic component contacts a ground conductor (802) disposed on a first surface (812) of an internal circuit board (500); using an electro-mechanical member (700) to mechanically couple the electronic component to the internal circuit board and to create an electrical path from the ground conductor to a sensing conductor (800) disposed on a second surface (814) opposed from the first surface of the internal circuit board; and sensing a break in the electrical path.
Abstract:
An electrical connector is provided for terminating an electrical cable having an insulated conductor surrounded by a ground shield. The electrical connector includes a housing, an electrical contact held by the housing, an inner ferrule configured to extend between the ground shield and the insulated conductor of the electrical cable, and an outer ferrule extending around the inner ferrule such that the ground shield of the electrical cable extends between the inner and outer ferrules when the electrical connector terminates the electrical cable. A rear cover is connected to the housing. The rear cover extends around and compresses the outer ferrule such that the ground shield of the electrical cable is captured between the inner and outer ferrules when the electrical connector terminates the electrical cable.
Abstract:
An improved voice transmitter-receiver, a plug of which has a clamping portion at a front end thereof, and a connecting socket is located on an electronic device. A mounting hole is located at an outer side of the connecting socket, thereby enabling the voice transmitter-receiver to use the plug to plug into the connecting socket of the electronic device and clamp into the mounting hole of the connecting socket by means of the clamping portion on the plug, thus connecting and fixedly locking the voice transmitter-receiver to the electronic device to prevent the plug of the voice transmitter-receiver from being inadvertently pulled out or coming away from the connecting socket of the electronic device.
Abstract:
A wall plate assembly including a wall plate with an integrated USB module. The assembly includes a USB connector and printed circuit board formed together on the wall plate as an integral whole. By placing USB extender circuitry directly on the printed circuit board, rather than in a separate housing, the present assembly can maintain its bus-powered attributes without the bulk of a separate extender housing. A quick-connect coupling enables fast electrical connection and disconnection with a complementary quick-connect coupling on a USB wire.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a combined apparatus of a Bluetooth earset and a charging dock, characterized in that the combined apparatus comprises the Bluetooth earset and the charging dock which can be connected to a power supply, said charging dock comprising a main body portion, and one end of the charging dock is an electrical connection portion which is connected to a DC power supply, and the other end of the charging dock is a holding cavity portion for fixing the Bluetooth earset, and electric contacts in the holding cavity portion are adapted to electric contacts on a bottom end of the Bluetooth earset.

Abstract:
Power supply equipment includes a power converter and connector adapters for coupling between the converter and various appliances. The connector adapters bear respective adapter indicators. A particular connector adapter, bearing a corresponding adapter indicator, is chosen for mating with a particular appliance. The power converter generates selectable output voltages which are identified by respective converter indicators. The power converter output voltage is selected so that the converter indicator matches the indicator on the adapter chosen for the particular appliance.

Abstract:
A power supply for providing a regulated DC output power is disclosed. An interface is coupled to the power supply and the interface provides a plurality of operational voltages to any one of a plurality of electronic devices. The plurality of operational voltages correspond to input power requirements of respective portable electronic devices. The interface may include a regulator which provides a second of the plurality of operational voltages at a different value than a first of the plurality of operational voltages.
Abstract:
A progammable power supply for providing a regulated DC output power is disclosed. The power supply provides the output power to any one of a plurality of electronic devices adapted for receiving the output power at an operational voltage or an operational current. The power supply receives a programming signal to maintain the output power at the operational voltage or operational current associated with a particular selected electronic device. Accordingly, by varying the programming signal, the power supply can be programmed to provide output power to any one of several electronic devices having differing input power requirements.
