Abstract

A mobile device charger with mounting ability is disclosed. An attachment seat is attached to a mobile device, the attachment seat has a charging cable and charging plug that can be plugged into the charge port of mobile device. The attachment seat has an electrode section and a magnet section to interact with a charger mounting support that has a matching charging head with an electrode section and a magnet section. The charger mounting support also has a rotation section and a power converting configuration and port for power supply port.

Claims (31)

1. A mounting charger for a mobile device, comprising:

a magnetic attachment seat having a first side surface, said first side surface having a center region and a peripheral region, said center region being configured as an electrode and said peripheral region being a ferromagnetic ring-piece;

a charger cable having a first end and a second end, said first end is physically connected with said electrode of said magnetic attachment seat, and said second end being configured with a battery charging plug that matches to a mobile device's charging port; and

a mounting charger body having a charging head, a rotatable neck portion and a cylindrical support stand, said charging head having a center region and a peripheral region, said center region being configured as an electrode ( 32 ) and said peripheral region being configured as a magnet, wherein said electrode of said charging head is connected with a power supply cable and said magnet of said charging head and said ferromagnetic ring-piece of said attachment seat attract with each other with sufficient magnetic force that enables said mounting charger body to grip a mobile device that is attached to said attachment seat.

2. The mounting charger of claim 1 , wherein said attachment seat and said charging head are both configured in matching size and shaped as a circular disk.

3. The mounting charger of claim 1 , wherein said rotatable neck portion is configured in a shape of a ball with a mounting section capable of rotating in all directions and has grooves for holding at one direction.

4. The mounting charger of claim 1 , wherein said charging head has a region for embedding printed circuits for conducting electricity.

5. The mounting charger of claim 1 , wherein said cylindrical support stand further is installed with a panel of printed circuit board for power control.

6. The mounting charger of claim 1 , wherein said magnet of said charging head and said magnet of said magnetic attachment seat are configured in a shape of circular ring.

7. The mounting charger of claim 1 , wherein said cylindrical support stand has a foot section that is adhesive to glass or plastic surface.

8. The mounting charger of claim 1 , wherein said cylindrical support stand is configured with a power cord to accept power supply from an automobile.

9. The mounting charger of claim 1 , wherein said magnetic attachment seat is a built-in integral piece of a mobile device's back cover.

10. The mounting charger of claim 1 , wherein said magnetic attachment seat is a built-in integral piece of a protective case for a mobile device.

11. A method for charging a mobile device, comprising the actions of:

constructing a magnetic attachment seat having a first side surface, said first side surface having a center region and a peripheral region, said center region being configured as an electrode and said peripheral region being a ferromagnetic ring-piece;

constructing a charger cable having a first end and a second end, said first end is physically connected with said electrode of said magnetic attachment seat, and said second end being configured with a battery charging plug that matches to a mobile device's charging port;

attaching said magnetic attachment seat to the mobile device's back cover;

plugging in said second end of said charger cable to said mobile devices' charging port;

constructing a mounting charger body having a charging head, a rotatable neck portion and a cylindrical support stand, said charging head having a center region and a peripheral region, said center region being configured as an electrode and said peripheral region being configured as a magnet;

attaching said magnetic attachment seat to said charging head via said magnet;

contacting said electrode of said charging head with said electrode of said magnetic attachment seat; and

plugging power supply to said mounting charger.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein said attachment seat and said charging head are both configured in matching size and shaped as a circular disk.

13. The method of claim 11 , wherein said rotatable neck portion is configured in a shape of a ball with a mounting section capable of rotating in all directions and has grooves for holding at one direction.

14. The method of claim 11 , wherein said charging head has a region for embedding printed circuits for conducting electricity.

15. The method of claim 11 , wherein said cylindrical support stand further is installed with a panel of printed circuit board for power control.

16. The method of claim 11 , wherein said magnet of said charging head and said magnet of said magnetic attachment seat are configured in a shape of circular ring.

17. The method of claim 11 , wherein said cylindrical support stand has a foot section that is adhesive to glass or plastic surface.

18. The method of claim 11 , wherein said cylindrical support stand is configured with a power cord to accept power supply from an automobile.

19. The method of claim 11 , wherein said magnetic attachment seat is a built-in integral piece of a mobile device's back cover.

20. The method of claim 11 , wherein said magnetic attachment seat is a built-in integral piece of a protective case for a mobile device.
