  • Patent number: 10559788
    Abstract: A battery pack is provided for a mobile communication device, comprising a casing defining a cavity that conforms, at least partially, to the outer shape of the mobile communication device and one or more rechargeable power cells housed within the thickness of the casing. An internal interface engages a corresponding interface on the mobile communication device to provide power from the one or more rechargeable cells to the mobile communication device. An external interface is electrically coupled to the internal interface in order to transmit signals from the mobile communication device to an external device and may further serve to recharge the one or more rechargeable power cells. The battery pack may also serve as an extendible platform by providing additional integrated communication interfaces and/or processors that can be utilized by the mobile communication device to extend its communication and/or processing capabilities.

  • Patent number: 10516431
    Abstract: A wireless case for use with a mobile electronic device can include a back wall, a top wall, a bottom wall, a right side wall, a left side wall. The case can include a wireless receiver configured to receive wireless signals. The case can further include a device interface that can be electrically coupled to the wireless receiver. The device interface can move between an engaged position and a disengaged position. In the engaged position, the device interface can be configured to engage a corresponding interface on the mobile electronic device to deliver the electrical signals from the wireless receiver to the mobile electronic device. In the disengaged position the device interface can be configured to disengage from the corresponding interface on the mobile electronic device to facilitate insertion of the mobile electronic device into the case or removal of the mobile electronic device from the case.

  • Patent number: 10079496
    Abstract: A charging device can include an input interface for receiving electrical power from a power source and an output interface for outputting electrical power to a mobile electronic device. The charging device can include a supplemental battery. A bypass electrical pathway can couple the input interface to the output interface to pass electrical charge from the power supply through the charging device to the mobile electronic device. A charging electrical pathway can couple the input interface to the supplemental battery. A discharge electrical pathway can couple the supplemental battery to the output interface. The bypass electrical pathway can include a voltage modifier configured to modify the voltage output by the output interface. The charging device can be configured to empirically determine the power capacity of the power supply. The charging device can monitor temperatures and/or battery health information, which can be used to reduce current or disable the charging device.
