Abstract: A portable computing device includes at least a base portion of a lightweight material that includes at least a wedge shaped top case having a trough formed at an interfacing edge thereof. The trough includes a raised portion having a first contact surface and a receiving area, and a bottom case coupled to the top case to form a complete housing for at least a portion of the portable computing device for enclosing at least a plurality of operational components and a plurality of structural components. The portable computing device also includes at least a lid portion pivotally connected to the base portion by a hinge assembly. In the described embodiments, the lid portion has a display in communication with one or more of the plurality of components in the base portion by way of or more electrical conductors that electrically connect the base portion to the lid portion.

Abstract: Mechanisms to prevent access to electronic components in an electronic device when the electronic device is receiving power. On example may provide an electronic device including a receptacle, the receptacle including a button. The button may be configured to be depressed by a user, and otherwise to be in a normal state. When the button is depressed, it may act through a locking mechanism to unlock, open, or eject a door covering one or more sockets or electronic components. When the door is closed, the locking mechanism may either prevent the door from being opened, or may maintain the door in a closed state, unless the button is depressed. When a power plug is inserted in the receptacle, the power plug may prevent access to the button. Accordingly, when the power plug is inserted, the button may not be accessible to be depressed, and the door may remain closed.
Abstract translation: 当电子设备正在接收电力时防止电子设备中的电子部件接入的机构。 例如,可以提供包括插座的电子设备,插座包括按钮。 按钮可以被配置为被用户按下,否则处于正常状态。 当按钮被按下时,它可以通过锁定机构起作用以解锁,打开或弹出覆盖一个或多个插座或电子部件的门。 当门关闭时,锁定机构可以防止门打开,或者可以将门保持在关闭状态,除非按钮被按下。 当电源插头插入插座时,电源插头可能阻止访问按钮。 因此,当插入电源插头时,按钮可能无法被按压,门可能保持关闭。
