  • Publication number: 20240072364
    Abstract: An example computing device includes a housing including a battery compartment to receive a removable battery, a cover engageable with the housing to close the battery compartment, and a device connector positioned inside the housing at a fixed position relative to the housing. The device connector is to make an electrical connection with a complementary battery connector of the removable battery when the removeable battery is disposed within the battery compartment. The cover includes an engageable element to engage a complementary engageable element of the battery connector to move the battery connector to break the electrical connection with the device connector when the cover is moved to disengage from the housing.

  • Patent number: 11877414
    Abstract: In some examples, a tool-less electronic component retention apparatus includes a bracket to affix to a circuit board, and a spring-loaded arm attached to the bracket. The spring-loaded arm has an engagement tab that is angled downwardly to engage an upper surface of an electronic component to mount the electronic component to the circuit board. The spring-loaded arm is pivotable between an engaged position and a release position by a user without use of a tool.

  • Publication number: 20230021406
    Abstract: Example connection ports for electronic devices are disclosed. In an example, the connection port includes a longitudinal axis, a receptacle that extends axially with respect to the longitudinal axis, and a substrate disposed within the receptacle. The substrate includes an end and a support surface that extends axially with respect to the longitudinal axis. In addition, the connection port includes a plurality of first electrical contacts on the support surface, a plurality of second electrical contacts on the end. Each second electrical contact is electrically coupled to a corresponding one of the first electrical contacts.

  • Publication number: 20220404921
    Abstract: An example electronic device includes a housing, a clickpad coupled to the housing, and a switch disposed within the housing, under the clickpad. Depression of the clickpad is to actuate the switch. In addition, the electronic device includes a locking assembly including an obstruction member disposed under the clickpad. The obstruction member is to translate the obstruction member under the clickpad from a first location to a second location to disable an actuation of the switch.
