Abstract
A docking station () for an elongate rectangular mobile device. A first adjustable slide clamp member () is fitted in aperture () and is capable of adjustment in one direction. A second adjustable rotate clamp member () has a plug () for interconnection with a socket of the mobile device. The slide clamp member () has a clamp surface () and comprises a ratchet arm (). The rotate clamp member also has a clamp surface () and is rotatably disposed with respect to the body so that it can rotate between two positions. In a first position the clamp surface is perpendicular to the direction of movement of the slide clamp (). In a second position it is parallel to that direction. In the second position, it opens a second aperture opposite the rotate clamp member and in which the slide clamp member can be inserted.
