Input device attachment

摘要

Input device attachment techniques are described. In one or more implementations, an input device includes an input portion configured to generate signals to be processed by a computing device and a mid-spine that is physically attached to the input portion and configured to form a removable physical coupling to be secured to a first side of the computing device that includes a display device. The input device also includes a connection portion that is physically attached the mid-spine and is configured to form a removable physical coupling to be secured to a second side of the computing device that is different than the first side and form a communicative coupling to the computing device to communicate the generated signals from the input portion.

1. An input device comprising:
an input portion configured to generate signals to be processed by a computing device; a mid-spine that is physically attached to a connection portion using a first hinge and physically attached to the input portion using a second hinge, the mid-spine configured to form a removable physical coupling to be secured to a first side of the computing device that includes a display device; and the connection portion configured to: form a removable physical coupling to be secured to a second side of the computing device that is different than the first side; and form a communicative coupling to the computing device to communicate the generated signals from the input portion, the input portion configured to support user input to the input portion when the mid-spine is secured to the first side of the computing device that includes the display device and the connection portion is secured to the second side of the computing device.
