HOLDER FOR RFID ENABLED CARDS
A holder for cards providing RFID protection is disclosed herein. The holder comprises multiple sheaths, where each sheath has a card position adjacent a protective assembly and a means for holding the card adjacent the protective assembly. Each protective assembly comprises a conductive layer and an absorbing layer adjacent the card position. The sheaths are hingedly connected to enable the user to select a single card for desired use without the need to remove the card from the holder. Once the desired card read has been completed, the cards within the holder are shielded from unauthorized or malicious card reads.
COMPACT WALLET
There is disclosed a compact wallet, comprising at least two rigid plates at least one having a channel into which an encircling elastic band is interposed to bias the at least two rigid plates inwardly and securely hold the card-like contents while providing elastic volume therebetween while allowing freedom for the dynamic extension and contraction of the band over the entire running length of the wallet. The wallet includes an auxiliary feature removably attached within the interior at least one of the at least two rigid plates interposed using a tang inserted into a recess formed inside the plate, the tang having a hook, the hook extending at an angle to the tang, the hook engaging an undercut of the recess to prevent inadvertent dislodgement of the auxiliary feature from the recess.
Shielding Card Holder System
A shielding card holder system for providing a versatile protector and holder which shields wireless transmissions from a card such as a smartcard. The shielding card holder system generally includes a card protector adapted to shield wireless transmissions from a card such as a smartcard. A card holder is removably attached to the card protector, the card holder being adapted to removably receive cards of varying thicknesses. A protector magnet on the card protector is adapted to magnetically engage with a holder magnet on the card holder or the card holder itself to removably attach the card holder to the card protector. A securing member may be utilized to secure the card protector against an article of clothing, with the securing member including a securing magnet adapted to magnetically engage with the protector magnet through the clothing.
FLEXIBLE SCANNER RESISTANT DEVICE EMULATING A BANKNOTE FOR PROTECTION OF RFID CARDS
A device for protecting one or more credit or charge cards from radio frequency scanning is disclosed. The device comprises a rectangular-shaped planar element sized for fitting within the banknote slot of a personal carrying accessory, wherein the planar element is composed of a top layer of plastic material having an interior surface including printed information, a middle layer of a metallic foil that inhibits the transmission of radio frequency signals, and a bottom layer of plastic material having an interior surface including printed information, wherein the top layer and the bottom layer of plastic material completely cover a surface area of both sides of the middle layer, and wherein the device has a thickness of about 0.3 mm and exhibits a bending stiffness substantially equal to paper.
ELECTRONIC DEVICE WITH INTERCHANGEABILITY AND MODULARITY
An electronic device is described herein. The electronic device includes a portable housing for the electronic device. A zipper of the portable housing is to enable access to the electronic device. Additionally, the electronic device includes a flexible display integrated into the portable housing. The zipper may enable electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding while enclosing the electronic device and associated components within the portable form factor. In embodiments, a flexible magnetic seal may be used to enclose the electronic device and associated components within the portable form factor.
BIFOLD WALLETS WITH ELASTIC SLEEVE
A bifold wallet can comprise a rectangular base comprising an inner surface and an outer surface. The inner surface can include a first end and a second end. The first end can comprise an elastic sleeve with a decorative design, and the second end comprises a first and a second inner pocket. The outer surface can comprise at least one outer pocket. The rectangular base can include at least one fold.
WALLET WITH CARD HOLDING MECHANISMS
The disclosure includes a wallet comprising an open-sided shell, a flexible member coupled to the open-sided shell, and a pull tab coupled to the external surface of the flexible member. The disclosure also includes a wallet comprising an open-sided shell, a flexible member coupled to the open-sided shell, a stretchable band configured to wrap around the open-sided shell and the flexible member, and a radio frequency identification (RFID) protection plate coupled to the open-sided shell. In some embodiments, the RFID protection plate is configured to securably couple at least one personal card between the RFID protection plate and the open-sided shell. The disclosure includes a wallet comprising an open-sided shell, a first protruding portion coupled to the open-sided shell, and a second protruding portion coupled to the open-sided shell.
Article Shield Apparatus
An article shield apparatus adapted to protectively encompass an article, the apparatus including a first flexible surrounding sidewall that acts as a protective cover, a second flexible surrounding sidewall that is nested within the first flexible surrounding sidewall, the second surrounding sidewall functions as a radio frequency shield, in addition, a third flexible surrounding sidewall that is nested within the second surrounding sidewall with the third surrounding sidewall being constructed with from a waterproof material, wherein the third surrounding sidewall holds the article thus resulting in operationally the article being substantially protected from water and radio frequency waves.
Shielding Card Holder System
