  • Patent number: 11729923
    Abstract: An electronic device assembly includes a first electronic device and a second electronic device. The first electronic device includes a first wall body, a first opening, a sliding seat, a first magnetic attraction element, an elastic element and a connecting terminal. When the second wall body is close to the first wall body, the second magnetic attraction element and the first magnetic attraction element are magnetically attracted by each other. Consequently, the sliding seat is moved toward the first wall body, the elastic element is compressed, and the connecting terminal is protruded outside the first opening and contacted with the connector. When the second wall body is separated from the first wall body, the compressed elastic element is restored. Consequently, the sliding seat is moved away from the first wall body and the connecting terminal is retracted inside the first electronic device.

  • Patent number: 11728557
    Abstract: A passive-intermodulation-mitigating mounting assembly for a fixture, such as can be affixed to a utility or communications monopole can include a first bracket and a second bracket respectively defining a first through hole and a second through hole. In some examples, a mounting plate supports an antenna or a radio. A fastener can extend through the first through hole and the second through hole, for instance to couple the first bracket with the second bracket to attach the mounting assembly to a fixture. The passive-intermodulation-mitigating mounting assembly can include a bushing that can be inserted into a through hole, and the bushing can physically and electrically isolate the fastener from one or more of the brackets. The isolation of the bushing helps inhibit the passive-intermodulation of the mounting assembly when the fastener extends, via the first bushing, through at least one of the through holes.
