Patent attributes
A magnetic plate may be provided by a device, comprising: a first magnet, a second magnet, and a third magnet; a plate defining: a first indentation in which the first magnet is disposed; a second indentation in which the second magnet is disposed; and a third indentation in which the third magnet is disposed; and a contact surface; and, a target area; wherein: the first indentation, the second indentation, and the third indentation are located on the plate relative to a target area of the plate so that a net magnetic field generated by the first magnet, second magnet, and third magnet has a field strength that is below a predefined threshold within the target area. A keying feature may be provided so as to prevent misalignment between the plate and a device to which it can be magnetically connected.
