摘要:
In one embodiment, an electronic accessory configured to couple with an electronic device can comprise a housing and a spacer. The housing can comprise a body comprising a width, a length, and a thickness; and a neck extending from the body, the neck comprising a length less than the length of the body. The spacer can comprise an opening configured to be removably coupled around the neck. When the electronic accessory is fully electrically coupled to the electronic device through a docking end of the electronic device, the neck can be located between the body and the electronic device and the electronic device remains uncradled by the electronic accessory. Other embodiments and related methods are also disclosed herein.

The present invention provides a method and system for providing a user with feedback as to the status of the command they have initiated by depressing a button, series of buttons or sequence of buttons on a human interface device (“HID”) for a time period beyond a fraction of a second to activate a function. In one embodiment, feedback provided for a press and hold (“P+H”) operation informs the user that their button press action has been detected by a multi-function device (“MFD”) and a visual and/or audible indication is provided, informing him or her to continue pressing the button or buttons on the HID to activate one or more functions. A graphical display with a periodically updated progress bar displays how much longer the user should continue pressing the button or buttons to successfully transmit a command to the MFD with an animation showing which command will be activated.

A power supply system capable of providing electric power to an electronic device having a first battery includes a battery pack (100) and an attachment apparatus (300). The battery pack includes a body (110) having at least a first recess (221), a second battery inside the body, and at least one of a first circuit (500) capable of dynamically changing a charge current supplied to the second battery based on a power consumption level of the electronic device, and a second circuit (600) capable of dynamically switching the electronic device between a recharging state and a non-recharging state depending on a status of the battery pack. The attachment apparatus includes a frame (310), an extension (350) protruding from the frame, and attachment features (461) suitable for working with the recess to attach the battery pack and the attachment apparatus to each other and to the electronic device.
