If you want your views to be known, we now open this monthly review to columnists, bloggersand IP practitioners. Send us an email at [email protected] and lets discuss how we canwork together. We also accept advertorial and advertisement placements.
Structure of this review
The Table of Contents is created based onalphabetical order of IPC. The patent applicationsare also sorted by alphabetical order of IPC. A briefdescription of each IPC is shown. We find that the IPCdescription could help deciphering the abstract of anpatent application. If a patent application belongs tomultiple IPC, the patent application will only be shownunder the section of first IPC.
For each patent application, the following informationwill be shown:
1. App. No. patent application no. it is uniqueto each patent application.
2. Assignee this is owner of the patentapplication. If there is no assignee beingspecified, either the inventor of the patentapplication own the patent application or theowner of the patent application did not recordsuch information when the patent applicationwas filed.
3. Title this is the title of the patent application.
4. Abstract this is the abstract of the patentapplication. There are rules on how an abstractshould be drafted. Most patent attorneys like tohave the abstract based on the first claim of thepatent application.
5. Pri. Date priority date it is the dateof filing of the first application of the patentapplication (a patent application could havemultiple application dates because of divisionalpatents as well as overseas patent applications).It is considered to be the effective date of filingfor the examination of novelty and inventivestep or non-obviousness for the subsequent
application claiming the priority of the firstapplication.
6. App. Date application date it is the date offiling of the patent application at the US.
7. Pub. Date publishing date it is the date of thepatent application published by US. Usually, it isabout 18 months after the application date.
Patent Index is a numerical sorted list the patentapplications appeared in the review.
IPC Catchword Index is an alphabetical sorted list ofcatchwords of the IPC appeared in the review.

Title Hinge assembly and portable electronic device using same
Abstract A hinge assembly used in a portable electronic device includes a hinged portion, an assembledportion and a connecting shaft. The hinged portion is rotatably assembled with the assembledportion by the connecting shaft. One end of the hinged portion defines a blind hole axiallyrecessed therein. The assembled portion defines an assembled through hole there through. Theconnecting shaft adjustably penetrates through the assembled through hole of the assembledportion and inserts into the blind hole of the hinged portion to adjust the tightness between thehinged portion and the assembled portion. The invention also describes an electronic deviceusing the hinge assembly.

Title Hinge assembly for foldable electronic device
Abstract A hinge assembly includes a shaft, a cam, a follower, and an resilient member. The cam, thefollower, and the resilient member are mounted with the shaft in turn. One end of the cam has afirst outer cam portion and a first inner cam portion. One end of the follower has a second outercam portion and a second inner cam portion respectively engaging with the first outer and innercam portions. The resilient member is contained in such a manner that the cam portions of thefollower resist the cam portions of the cam due to the decompression of the resilient member, and
when the follower is manually rotated relative to the cam about a small original angle, the followeris automatically rotated relative to the cam due to the decompression of the resilient member.

Title Hinge mechanism and portable electronic device using the same
Abstract A hinge mechanism comprises a follower, a cam and a first spring. The first spring is spiral, oneend of the first spring is mounted to the follower, another end of the first spring is mounted to thecam. The cam rotates relative to the follower about a rotating axis, the first spring is compressedto accumulate elastic force, until the line connecting two ends of the first spring is parallel to therotating axis where the first spring is mostly compressed to accumulate maximum of the elasticforce and the hinge mechanism is in an intermediate state. Once the cam is rotated over theintermediate state, the first spring is expanded under previously accumulated elastic force, whichdrive the cam continuously rotated relative to the follower.
