First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- positioning a carrier proximal to a fixture, the carrier having positioned therein a key assembly disposed between first and second outer layers and a connection portion having a magnetic coupling device configured to be secured to a computing device, the positioning performed to align and secure the magnetic coupling device to a portion of the fixture;
positioning layers of the key assembly in the fixture that has one or more projections disposed through one or more openings in each of the layers that are secured to each other to form the key assembly; and
performing one or more operations to secure the first and second outer layers of the positioned carrier.
