    Abstract: An electrical plug and receptacle relying on magnetic force from an electromagnet to maintain contact are disclosed. The plug and receptacle can be used as part of a power adapter for connecting an electronic device, such as a laptop computer, to a power supply. The plug includes electrical contacts, which are preferably biased toward corresponding contacts on the receptacle. The plug and receptacle each have a magnetic element. The magnetic element on one of the plug or receptacle can be a magnet of ferromagnetic material. The magnetic element on the other of the plug or receptacle is an electromagnet. When the plug and receptacle are brought into proximity, the magnetic attraction between the electromagnet magnet and its complement, whether another magnet or a ferromagnetic material, maintains the contacts in an electrically conductive relationship.

    Abstract: A magnetic connector system 360 comprises first and second connectors 390, 370, each with a plurality of contacts 376, wherein the first connector 390 includes an attraction plate 392 (e.g. of ferromagnetic material) to be magnetically attracted to a plurality of magnets 380, 382 in the second connector 370 such that, upon mating, the first connector 390 is held in a first direction to the second connector 370. The contacts in the first connector 390 make a plurality of electrical paths with the contacts 376 in the second connector 370. The attraction plate 392 is formed to fit in a recess in the second connector 370 such that the contacts in the first connector 390 are mechanically aligned with the contacts 376 in the second connector 370 in a second and third direction. The plurality of electrical paths may comprise at least one electrical power path and at least one signal path to convey a signal that determines the type of device coupled to the first connector 390. Each of the contacts in the first connector 390 may be spring biased. The magnets 380, 382 in the second connector 370 may be proximally located and arranged in opposing polarities with respect to each other.
