Abstract
The invention relates to a combination of an input device for a computing device and a set of support elements, wherein the set of support elements includes at least two support elements, wherein the combination includes fasteners to fasten any number of support elements of the set of support elements to the input device, wherein the support elements are fastenable to the input device at a location on the input device to set a tilt angle of the input device, and wherein the set of support elements is configured such that a single support element can be fastened to the input device and such that a plurality of support elements can be fastened to the input device as a stack of support elements thereby allowing to set different tilt angles of the input device.
Claims8
An input device for a separate computing device and a set of support elements, wherein the set of support elements includes at least two support elements, wherein the combination includes fasteners to fasten any number of support elements of the set of support elements to the input device, wherein the fasteners include at least one permanent magnet and magnetizable material, wherein the support elements are fastenable to the input device at a location on the input device to set a tilt angle of the input device, wherein the location on the input device has a protrusion or recess to mate with a corresponding recess or protrusion of a support element, and wherein the set of support elements is configured such that a single support element can be fastened to the input device and such that a plurality of support elements can be fastened to the input device as a stack of support elements thereby allowing to set different tilt angles of the input device,
- wherein the set of support elements comprises a support element of type “a” which is configured to engage with a support surface,
- wherein the set of support elements comprises at least one support element of type “b” configured to be arranged in the stack of support elements between the input device and the support element of type “a”,
- wherein the type “b” support elements have a recess at one side to mate with a protrusion of another support element or a protrusion at the location on the input device, and a protrusion at the opposite side to mate with a recess of another support element or a recess at the location on the input device,
- wherein the type “a” support elements have a recess or protrusion at one side to mate with a protrusion or recess of another support element or the protrusion or recess at the location on the input device, and an engagement surface at an opposite side to engage with the support surface, and wherein the location on the input device and each support element are provided with a permanent magnet and/or magnetizable material to fasten the support elements to the location on the input device.
A set of support elements for an input device for a separate computing device, wherein the set of support elements includes at least two support elements and fasteners to fasten any number of support elements of the set of support elements to the input device, wherein the fasteners include at least one permanent magnet magnetizable material, wherein the support elements are fastenable to the input device at a location on the input device to set a tilt angle of the input device, and wherein the set of support elements is configured such that a single support element can be fastened to the input device and such that a plurality of support elements can be fastened to the input device as a stack of support elements thereby allowing to set different tilt angles of the input device, wherein the set of support elements comprises a support element of type “a” which is configured to engage with a support surface, wherein the set of support elements comprises at least one support element of type “b” configured to be arranged in the stack of support elements between the input device and the support element of type “a”, wherein the type “b” support elements have a recess at one side to mate with a protrusion of another support element or a protrusion at the location on the input device, and a protrusion at the opposite side to mate with a recess of another support element or a recess at the location on the input device, wherein the type “a” support elements have a recess or protrusion at one side to mate with a protrusion or recess of another support element or the protrusion or recess at the location on the input device, and an engagement surface at an opposite side to engage with the support surface, and wherein the location on the input device and each support element are provided with a permanent magnet and/or magnetizable material to fasten the support elements to the location on the input device.
