Abstract: A battery assembly for use in an electronic device is provided. The battery assembly may include a battery cell (e.g., a rechargeable battery cell), a battery connector for providing power from the battery cell to the electronic device, and a flex circuit electrically coupling the battery cell to the electronic device. The battery connector may be located adjacent the battery cell, and may include one or more alignment mechanisms for ensuring that conductive pads of the battery connector align properly with corresponding conductive elements of the electronic device. The battery cell may be fixed to the electronic device using an adhesive layer (e.g., double sided tape) placed between the cell and the electronic device. A tab may extend beyond the periphery of the battery cell to allow a user to pull or peal the battery cell from the electronic device for replacement or repair. In some embodiments, a tool may be used to grasp the tab.

Abstract: Electronic devices are provided with ejectable component assemblies. The ejectable component assembly may include a tray that can be loaded with one or more removable modules, wafers coupled to circuit boards, cages and retaining plates to assist in retaining the tray within the assembly. The ejectable component assembly may include springs operative to engage detents in the tray to retain the tray in the assembly. The ejectable component assembly may include a tray ejector mechanism for ejecting the tray from the assembly.

Abstract: A power line/transformer switch of the isolator type, with knife members for the respective phases disposed on a common, rotatable shaft of insulating material. The respective contacts for the knives are disposed on an opposing, fixed shaft composed of insulating material. The respective shafts are mounted at one end of supports that are joined at the opposite end such that the supports constitute the legs of a V-shaped frame. The base of the V-formed supports is disposed perpendicularly on the longitudinal support bar that is parallel with the shafts, this longitudinal bar being provided with fasteners for attachment to a tower.
