Abstract: An electronic device is disclosed. The electronic device includes a first sub assembly having a first housing component. The first housing component has an opening. The electronic device also includes a second sub assembly having a second housing component. The second housing component cooperates with the first housing component to enclose components of an electronic device. The at least one internal component is accessible through the opening. The at least one internal component is also movable relative to the second sub assembly so as to properly align with the opening. The at least one internal component is additionally magnetically attracted towards the first housing component near the opening.

Abstract: Circuitos, un aparato, y métodos que proporcionan un sistema conector que puede suministrar tanto energía como datos a un dispositivo de computación móvil, o de otro tipo, utilizando una sola conexión. Ejemplos adicionales también proporcionan un adaptador de energía y datos que puede proporcionar energía y datos a un dispositivo de computación móvil utilizando un solo cable. Ejemplos adicionales proporcionan un fácil desacoplamiento cuando se jala un cable conectado al conector. Un ejemplo semejante proporciona un conector magnético que se desconecta sin unión cuando su cuerda se jala. Otro ejemplo evita que se proporcione energía en una inserción de conector hasta que la inserción de conector se coloca en un receptáculo de conector.

Abstract: A portable computing device includes at least a base portion of a lightweight material that includes at least a wedge shaped top case having a trough formed at an interfacing edge thereof. The trough includes a raised portion having a first contact surface and a receiving area, and a bottom case coupled to the top case to form a complete housing for at least a portion of the portable computing device for enclosing at least a plurality of operational components and a plurality of structural components. The portable computing device also includes at least a lid portion pivotally connected to the base portion by a hinge assembly. In the described embodiments, the lid portion has a display in communication with one or more of the plurality of components in the base portion by way of or more electrical conductors that electrically connect the base portion to the lid portion.
