GRAVITY-ACTIVATED MAGNETIC LATCHING SYSTEM
An electronic device has a body with a first portion (e.g., a lid) and a second portion (e.g., a base). The first portion includes magnets, while the second portion includes attractive elements that the magnets are attracted to. The first and second portions may be coupled together with hinges. The force of magnetic attraction between the magnets and the attractive elements maintains the body in a closed configuration at certain orientations of the body (e.g., at certain angles that the body is tilted relative to an axis in the direction of the Earth's gravity). When the body is positioned at a threshold angle with respect to the axis in the direction of the Earth's gravity, a separating force acting on the (first or second) portion of the body that is closer to the Earth becomes greater than the force of magnetic attraction, causing the portions to separate and the body to be in an open configuration.
