Abstract
An electronic device mount includes a rigid cover, a flexible cover, and a frame positioned between the rigid cover and the flexible cover. The frame has a plurality of openings. The electronic device mount further includes a plurality of rocker arms coupled within correspond openings of the frame, and to the flexible cover. The plurality of rocker arms are configured to pivot within the plurality of openings to deflect the flexible cover relative to the frame to define a curved outer surface of the flexible cover. The electronic device mount also includes a plurality of magnets coupled to one of the frame or the flexible cover. The deflection of the flexible cover is self-adjusting to allow for easy mounting of an electronic device to a curved metal surface.
