APPARATUS FOR ELECTRONIC DEVICES WITH VIBRATORS AND FUEL CELLS

摘要

The disclosure is directed to efficiently harnessing the mechanical energy of actuators used for producing vibration alerts in portable electronic devices to control the flow of fuel and mix the fuel in devices with fuel cells. Example embodiments control the flow of fuel into a reaction area and/or mix fuel in a fuel storage area of a fuel cell assembly. Such fuel flow control and mixing may be performed passively whenever a vibration alert occurs, or may be performed actively in response to monitoring the status of the fuel cell assembly.
