Abstract:
A method of fabricating the body (12) of the portable electronic device (10) as well as the resulting portable electronic device and its body are provided to facilitate the transmission of radio frequency signals through the body of the portable electronic device. In the context of a method, at least one aperture (18) and, in some instances, a plurality of apertures (18) are defined by laser perforation through a conductive portion of the body of the portable electronic device. The method may also anodize the conductive portion including at least partially filling the at least one aperture with an anodization layer. As such, the conductive portion of the body of the portable electronic device has a relatively consistent, metallic appearance, even though laser perforation apertures are defined therein for supporting the transmission of radio frequency signals.
Abstract:
Un dispositivo (100) electrónico que comprende: una primera parte (10) que tiene una primera pantalla (11) y una segunda parte (20) que tiene una segunda pantalla (21); dichas primera y segunda partes configuradas para ser plegables alrededor de un eje (80) de plegado en una pluralidad de configuraciones que comprenden al menos una primera configuración cerrada y una segunda configuración abierta, en el que el dispositivo está configurado para pasar de un primer modo de funcionamiento a un segundo modo de funcionamiento tras la detección de un ángulo crítico entre la primera y la segunda partes, y en el que en el primer modo de funcionamiento, la primera pantalla está dispuesta para proporcionar una o más indicaciones a una o más entradas de usuario (13) adyacentes, y en el segundo modo de funcionamiento, la primera y la segunda pantalla están dispuestas para actuar como pantallas, en el que la primera pantalla (11) está configurada para proporcionar control sobre una imagen que se proporciona en la segunda pantalla (21) en la segunda configuración abierta.
