Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2012164526A1] The invention relates to a system for connecting a portable device to an apparatus. The system comprises a bracket (22) for receiving a plug (21) intended to connect said portable device. The system also comprises: -a first rotation mechanism for rotating the bracket (22) with respect to a first axis (A1), -a second rotation mechanism for rotating the bracket (22) with respect to a second axis (A2), the second axis (A2) being perpendicular to the first axis (A1), and -a sliding mechanism for translating the bracket (22) along a third axis (A3), the third axis (A3) being parallel to the second axis (A2). This system defines a universal docking mechanism which allows users to easily dock various portable devices having different sizes, and different locations and orientations of the plug (e.g. micro USB socket).
