KICKSTAND FOR COMPUTING DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240341427 titled 'KICKSTAND FOR COMPUTING DEVICE

The kickstand assembly described in the patent application consists of a backplate with a backplate retention magnet, an upper kickstand plate connected to the backplate, a return biaser to push the upper kickstand plate towards a rest position, and a lower kickstand plate that can rotate and has a closing magnet.

  • The backplate retention magnet has a first magnetic pole orientation.
  • The upper kickstand plate is slidable and connected to the backplate.
  • A return biaser is used to push the upper kickstand plate towards a rest position.
  • The lower kickstand plate is rotatably coupled to the upper kickstand plate.
  • The lower kickstand plate has a closing magnet with a second magnetic pole orientation that attracts the first magnetic pole orientation of the backplate retention magnet.
  • A deployment biaser is used to push the lower kickstand plate to rotate away from the backplate when the upper kickstand plate is moved away from the rest position.

Potential Applications: - This kickstand assembly can be used in electronic devices such as tablets and laptops to provide stable support. - It can also be applied in furniture design to create adjustable stands for various items.

Problems Solved: - Provides a secure and stable support system for electronic devices. - Allows for easy adjustment and deployment of the kickstand.

Benefits: - Improved stability for devices. - Easy to use and adjust. - Durable and reliable design.

Commercial Applications: The kickstand assembly can be utilized in the manufacturing of electronic devices, furniture, and other products that require adjustable support systems.

Questions about the Kickstand Assembly: 1. How does the deployment biaser work in the kickstand assembly? 2. What materials are typically used in manufacturing the kickstand assembly components?


Original Abstract Submitted

a kickstand assembly comprises a backplate comprising a backplate retention magnet having a first magnetic pole orientation and an upper kickstand plate slidably connected to the backplate. a return biaser biases the upper kickstand plate toward a rest position. a lower kickstand plate is rotatably coupled to the upper kickstand plate, with the lower kickstand plate comprising a closing magnet having a second magnetic pole orientation that attracts the first magnetic pole orientation of the backplate retention magnet. a deployment biaser biases the lower kickstand plate to rotate away from the backplate when the upper kickstand plate is translated away from the rest position.
