  • Patent number: 9362664
    Abstract: A connecting device is disclosed, which includes a connector structure having a housing, a plug connector, a plurality of electrical contacts and a magnetic-metal set. The housing has a surface on which the electrical contacts and the magnetic-metal set are disposed, and the plug connector protrudes from the housing and is electrically connected to the electrical contacts. An electronic device assembly is further disclosed, which includes an electronic device and the aforesaid connecting device. The connecting device can be inserted into a socket connector of the electronic device, so as to transform the socket connector into a non-pluggable magnetic connector.

  • Patent number: 9203807
    Abstract: A method and system for use with a public cloud network is disclosed, wherein the public cloud network includes at least one private cloud server and at least one smart client device in communication therewith. The method and system comprise setting up the at least one private cloud server and the at least one smart client device in a client server relationship. The at least one private cloud server includes a message box associated therewith. The first message box is located in the public network. The at least one smart client includes a second message box associated therewith. The second message box is located on the public network. The method includes passing session based message information between the at least one private cloud server and the at least one smart client device via the first message box and the second message box in a secure manner. The session base information is authenticated by the private cloud server and the at least one smart client device.
