Patent attributes
A retention mechanism of a dual-body computing system, including a bracket coupled to a first body of the computing system, the bracket translates along a first direction, wherein a cable assembly is attached the bracket; and springs coupled to the bracket to facilitate translating of the bracket along the first direction, wherein, as the bracket progresses from a first state to a second state based on a positioning of each body of the dual-body computing system, the first and the second springs exert an increasing force on the bracket to maintain a level of tension on the cable assembly; wherein, as the bracket progresses from the second state to the first state based on the positioning of each body of the dual-body computing system, the first and the second springs exert a decreasing force on the bracket to retract the cable within one of the bodies of the computing system.
