    Abstract: A mobile phone may include an enclosure defining a front exterior surface of the mobile phone, a rear exterior surface of the mobile phone, and a side exterior surface of the mobile phone. The mobile phone may further include an audio output system configured to produce an audible alert in response to the mobile phone receiving an incoming call, a momentary ringer-control button positioned along a side exterior surface of the housing component, and a processing system configured to, in response to detecting an actuation of the momentary ringer-control button while a first ringer mode of the mobile phone is active, transition the mobile phone to a second ringer mode, and in response to detecting the actuation of the momentary ringer-control button while a second ringer mode of the mobile phone is active, transition the mobile phone to the first ringer mode.

    Abstract: Portable electronic devices having I/O assemblies that can include optical and audio components are described. An exemplary I/O assembly can include a first camera module and a second camera module that can be carried within a camera module housing. A flex connector can carry a strobe that can be positioned between the first camera module and the second camera module. A trim can enclose the first camera, the second camera and the strobe and optically isolates the optical components. An exemplary portable electronic device can include a side wall retainer that defines its perimeter, a front cover glass and a rear cover glass that cooperate to form an enclosure. The I/O assembly can be secured to the enclosure both from inside and outside of the rear cover glass. I/O assembly can also include an audio transducer that can record sound when the camera module are recording videos.

    Abstract: An electronic device that includes a vision system carried by a bracket assembly is disclosed. The vision system may include a first camera module that captures an image of an object, a light emitting element that emits light rays toward the object, and a second camera module that receives light rays reflected from the object. The light rays may include infrared light rays. The bracket assembly is designed not only carry the aforementioned modules, but to also maintain a predetermined and fixed separation between the modules. The bracket assembly may form a rigid, multi-piece bracket assembly to prevent bending, thereby maintaining the predetermined separation. The electronic device may include a transparent cover designed to couple with a housing. The transparent cover incudes an alignment module designed to engage a module and provide a moving force that aligns the bracket assembly and the modules to a desired location in the housing.

    Abstract: Flexible battery packs for use in electronic devices are disclosed. In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the flexible battery pack may include a plurality of cells, such as galvanic or photovoltaic cells. The battery pack also may include a plurality of laminate layers coupled to the cells that include a top laminate layer and a bottom laminate layer. An adhesive may be used to couple the top and bottom laminate layers together such that each of the plurality of cells is isolated from each other. This arrangement may allow the battery to be shaped to fit a form factor of the electronic device. This arrangement also may allow one or more of the cells to be selectively removed from the plurality, which may be desirable from a manufacturing perspective.

    Abstract translation: 公开了用于电子设备的柔性电池组。 在本公开的一个实施例中,柔性电池组可以包括多个电池,例如电流或光伏电池。 电池组还可以包括耦合到电池的多个层压层,其包括顶层叠层和底层叠层。 可以使用粘合剂将顶部和底部层压层连接在一起,使得多个单元中的每一个彼此隔离。 这种布置可以允许电池成形为适合电子设备的外形尺寸。 这种布置还可以允许从多个单元中选择性地移除一个或多个单元,这从制造的角度来看是可取的。
