A load-bearing strap with an inductive charging system is an apparatus that allows a user to charge a portable device, handsfree. The apparatus includes at least one strap, at least one pocket, a plurality of channels, and an inductive charging system. The inductive charging system is safely housed within the at least one strap as the at least one strap includes at least one charging chamber, a controller chamber, and a power source chamber. The at least one strap connects a bag about a user and houses the inductive charging system. The at least one pocket connects a portable device with the at least one strap. The plurality of channels connects the at least one charging chamber, the controller chamber, and the power source chamber with each other. The inductive charging system inductively charges a portable device with at least one set of coils, a microcontroller, and a power source.

Hands-free electronic devices and electronic functions that can be worn on the surface of the body in a biologically fit manner are described. The embodiments provide a convergence between electronic products, and biological, anatomical, and biomechanical aspects of the human body while providing hands-free and interchangeable wearable electronic apparatuses that can interact with human senses and physiology of a human body in a practical manner.

An apparatus for inflating an air bag of a protection device. The apparatus includes a canister including a first compartment and a second compartment. The first compartment is adapted to contain a compressed gas. A seal is between the first compartment and the second compartment which is adapted to seal the compressed gas inside the first compartment. The second compartment includes a two-step mechanism configured to break the seal to cause thereby an initial gas flow from the first compartment into the second compartment. The initial gas flow causes a wide opening in place of the seal to be created for rapid gas flow through the second compartment and into the air bag to rapidly expand the air bag.

A wearable, access-control management and storage device includes a belt loop including opposed connectable ends, the belt loop being adjustable in size; a pouch module coupled to the belt loop, the pouch module including an inner surface and an outer surface, the inner surface of the pouch module defining a first storage compartment having an opening and the outer surface defining a front side and a back side of the pouch module; and a plurality of key holders disposed within the first storage compartment of the pouch module, each of the plurality of key holders configured to receive and hold at least one key. The back side of the pouch module includes at least one aperture configured to receive the belt loop.

The present invention contemplates an apparatus for, and methods of, securing a bracket or similar device to a support object, such as a tree trunk or pole or post, for the purpose of using said bracket to hold objects, particularly small portable objects such as canister stoves used as camping equipment by campers, backpackers, or outdoorsmen. Embodiments of the bracket comprise interlocked pieces which form a platform which receives a payload. Embodiments of the apparatus have rotating, pivoting pieces which can hold a payload in place. Notches or slots on the apparatus are usable to tie a rope or cord through, which can become wedged into the notches or slots, and this rope or cord can be wrapped around a support object. Frictional surfaces or protrusions on the apparatus assist in gripping the support object. Embodiments of the apparatus can be either folded or disassembled into flat, stackable pieces.

A carrier pouch includes a pouch section, and a carrier attachment assembly coupled with the pouch section. The carrier attachment assembly enables a wearer to carry the carrier pouch with hands-free mobility, and includes a rigid assembly and a number of elastic bands, with the rigid assembly being elongated and having a proximal end and a distal end as extremities thereof. The distal end of the rigid assembly comfortably tucks in an inner side of a waistband of a garment worn by the wearer. The number of elastic bands extends across and over or under the rigid assembly to enable positioning of the carrier attachment assembly coupled with the pouch section on a limb of the wearer or the waistband of the garment. The rigid assembly is movable outside or inside the number of elastic bands to attach the carrier pouch on a waist or the limb of the wearer.

A device for repairing a telescopic pole or attaching an accessory thereto, the device including a peg secured to a flexible strap, the peg configured to be inserted into a peg hole opening of a telescopic pole, after which the flexible strap is wrapped around the telescopic pole and fastened together to secure the peg in the peg hole and secure the device to the pole. The strap includes a fastening mechanism such as a clip, hook or adhesive fastener to secure the flexible strap to the pole and keep the peg securely inserted into the peg hole opening. Additionally, one or more accessories may be attached with the flexible strap to provide additional functionality when the device is attached with the pole, such as a pouch, pocket, loop or hook to hold cups, cans or other items.
