Abstract: Various embodiments relate to an electronic device with a first panel and a second panel coupled by a hinge mechanism. The electronic device may include a first wire that communicatively couples components of the first panel with components of the second panel. The wire may pass through the hinge mechanism, and be tensioned by a tensioning mechanism that provides tension to the first wire when the electronic device is in an open position and a closed position. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus relating to provision and/or utilization of a hidden feature for accessing and/or repairing mobile devices are described. An embodiment includes a wire physically adjacent to an adhesive. The adhesive bonds a first portion of a computing device and a second portion of the computing device. The wire is capable of being heated in response to application of electrical voltage or current. In turn, the heated wire causes cutting of the adhesive to allow for physical separation of the first portion of the computing device and the second portion of the computing device. Another embodiment utilizes a hidden end of an opening in a computing device to hide a fastener. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.

Abstract: An electronic device has a body with a first portion (e.g., a lid) and a second portion (e.g., a base). The first portion includes magnets, while the second portion includes attractive elements that the magnets are attracted to. The first and second portions may be coupled together with hinges. The force of magnetic attraction between the magnets and the attractive elements maintain the body in a closed configuration at certain orientations of the body (e.g., at certain angles that the body is tilted relative to an axis in the direction of the Earth's gravity). When the body is positioned at a threshold angle with respect to the axis in the direction of the Earth's gravity, a separating force acting on the (first or second) portion of the body that is closer to the Earth becomes greater than the force of magnetic attraction, causing the portions to separate and the body to be in an open configuration.

Abstract: Particular embodiments described herein provide for device that includes a first housing that includes a first module, a second housing that includes a second module, and a hinge that rotatable couples the first housing to the second housing. The hinge can include a first axle, a second axle, and a plurality of hinge links. At least one of the hinge links includes an interconnect to provide a communication path between the first module and the second module.

Abstract: Embodiments include apparatuses, methods, and systems for computing. A computing apparatus may include a first computing part and a second computing part. The first computing part and the second computing part may be attached to a spine assembly. The first computing part may include a first electronic interface and a first mechanical attachment coupler to be coupled to the spine assembly, while the second computing part may include a second electronic interface and a second mechanical attachment coupler to be coupled to the spine assembly. The first computing part or the second computing part may rotate around a rotation hinge of the spine assembly from a first position to a second position. Other embodiments may also be described and claimed.
