Computing Device - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240036615 titled 'Computing Device

Simplified Explanation

The abstract of this patent application describes a computing device that consists of a processor, memory, a display housing with a display, a base housing with a keyboard, a shell, a component space access hatch, a controllable latch, and a hinge assembly. The device also includes circuitry that is connected to the keyboard and the controllable latch, allowing the latch to unlock the component space access hatch when a code is entered on the keyboard.

  • The computing device has a processor, memory, and a display for processing and presenting information.
  • It also has a keyboard for inputting data and commands.
  • The device is designed with a component space access hatch, which provides access to internal components.
  • The latch on the hatch can be controlled to lock and unlock the access to the components.
  • The display housing and the base housing are connected by a hinge assembly, allowing the device to be opened and closed.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Laptops and tablets: This computing device can be used as a laptop or tablet, providing a compact and portable solution for computing needs.
  • Mobile devices: The technology can be applied to smartphones and other mobile devices, offering a secure and convenient way to access internal components.
  • Industrial equipment: The computing device can be integrated into industrial equipment, allowing for easy maintenance and component replacement.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Secure component access: The controllable latch ensures that only authorized individuals can access the internal components of the device.
  • Convenient maintenance: The component space access hatch and hinge assembly make it easier to perform maintenance and replace components.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Enhanced security: The controllable latch adds an extra layer of security to protect the internal components of the device.
  • Improved maintenance efficiency: The component space access hatch and hinge assembly simplify maintenance tasks, reducing downtime and costs.
  • Versatile design: The device can be used in various applications and environments, providing flexibility and adaptability.


Original Abstract Submitted

a computing device can include a processor; memory accessible to the processor; a display housing that includes a display operatively coupled to the processor; a base housing that includes a keyboard operatively coupled to the processor, a shell and a component space access hatch that define a component space, and a controllable latch to lock and unlock the component space access hatch; a hinge assembly that couples the display housing and the base housing; and circuitry operatively coupled to the keyboard and the controllable latch that unlocks the component space access hatch responsive to receipt of a code from the keyboard.
