Magnetic latch mechanism

An electronic device having a magnetic latch mechanism, the electronic device comprising:

• a first electronic assembly;
• a second electronic assembly pivotally connected with the first electronic assembly;
• magnetic means for providing an uneven magnetic flux with respect to at least two sides of the magnetic means, a first side of the magnetic means having a first magnetic flux that is higher in intensity relative to a second magnetic flux associated with a second side of the magnetic means, wherein the magnetic means is captured by the first electronic assembly;
• attraction means for magnetically attracting the magnetic means, the attraction means captured by the second electronic assembly and configured to be coupled with the first magnetic flux when the first electronic assembly is in a closed position with respect to the second electronic assembly such that there is mutual attraction between the attraction plate and the Halbach array in the closed position.

• a second electronic assembly pivotally connected with the first electronic assembly;
• a magnetic unit captured by the first electronic assembly, the magnetic unit configured to provide a first magnetic flux in a first direction;
• and
• an attraction plate captured by the second electronic assembly and configured to be coupled with the first magnetic flux when the first electronic assembly is in a closed position with respect to the second electronic assembly such that there is mutual attraction between the attraction plate and the Halbach array in the closed position.
