This patent specification describes an attachment for a mobile device. The attachment may have an attachment feature designed to be attached to a mobile device such as a smartphone, tablet, or smartphone/tablet with a camera. The attachment may also include an optics system and/or an illumination system that cooperates with the camera to facilitate the capture of decodable barcodes. The illumination system may include a targeting illumination system that facilitates proper positioning of the article and/or an exposure illumination system that helps illuminate the article during capture. The optics system may include a lens that modifies the depth of field and/or the size of the field of view of the camera, an aperture that helps define the field of view, a filter that prevents light of undesired wavelengths from reaching the camera, and/or a mirror that redirects the camera's optical pathway.

A protective case for an electronic device may have two layers: an inner cushion cover that surrounds a portion of the electronic device, and an outer rigid shell that surround part of the cushion cover. The outer shell has side walls that engage and hold the cushion cover on the electronic device. The cushion cover has reduced thickness portions so that the side walls are embedded in the cushion cover and provide a protective case having a substantially smooth exterior. The cushion cover is capable of absorbing shocks from impacts on the rigid outer shell. Coring on the inner portion of the cushion cover provides additional softness and the ability of the cushion cover to absorb shocks while using a higher density material, which is able to conform to the electronic device.

A mobile device case for coupling around a mobile device that includes a miniature camera module has defined therein a lens attachment aperture shaped both to permit light from an object to be captured as a digital image to travel along the optical path of the miniature camera module to a built-in image sensor of the miniature camera module of the mobile device, and to facilitate stable coupling of an auxiliary lens in optical alignment with the miniature camera module. The case comprises electric circuit components positioned to balance an attached auxiliary lens approximately at a grip location.

A carry strap for use on electronic display devices, such as laptop computers or tablets is disclosed herein. The carry strap includes an elongate portion configured to be worn by a user that can be attached to either a second elongate portion that supports the electronic display device or to a mantle that is adhered to the electronic display device through a mantle having an attachment vehicle. The attachment vehicle can include a structural or pressure-sensitive adhesive.

A suitcase including: a suitcase main body with an upper side and a lower side, wherein a concaved cavity is provided in at least one of the upper side and the lower side, a bottom wall of the concaved cavity is provided with at least one assembly hole, and a top end of the main body is provided with a lock, the suitcase further including a detachable portion and a bottom stopper; wherein when the detachable portion is put in place and secured within the concaved cavity, at least a part of the detachable portion is confined within an inner space defined by the front stop and the bottom stop of the bottom stopper. The detachable portion of the suitcase can be readily replaced depending upon the needs of a user, which is more convenient for use.

A cover device according to an embodiment of the present invention, may include a first plate including a first surface and a second surface facing away from the first surface, and being substantially rectangular, the first plate including a first edge having a first length and extending in a first direction, a second edge having a second length longer than the first length and extending in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction, a third edge parallel to the first edge, having the first length, and extending in the first direction from the second edge, and a fourth edge parallel to the second edge, having the second length, and extending from the first edge in the second direction, a first sidewall perpendicular to the first surface and extending from the first edge, a second sidewall perpendicular to the first surface and the first sidewall and extending from the second edge, a third sidewall perpendicular to the first surface and the second sidewall and extending from the third edge, and a fourth sidewall perpendicular to the first surface and the third sidewall and extending from the fourth edge, wherein the first surface, the first sidewall, the second sidewall, the third sidewall and the fourth sidewall together may form a recess for receiving and holding the electronic device, and the first surface may include at least one parting line having a third length longer than the first length and shorter than the second length and extending in the second direction.

A backpack and hood combination device for shielding a user's head includes a backpack and a hood. The backpack comprises a pair of shoulder straps that is configured to position over shoulders of a user to couple the backpack to the user. An upper limit of the backpack is positioned proximate to a base of a neck of the user and a rear of the backpack substantially abuts a back of the user. The hood is coupled to and positioned in a pouch that is coupled to the upper limit proximate to the rear of the backpack. The hood is selectively extensible from the pouch through a pouch opening that is positioned in the pouch. The hood is configured to cover a head of the user to protect the head of the user from windchill and moisture.

Disclosed herein is an applicator device for applying a protective covering for an electronic device, comprising: a plate, a back piece and an opening on a top surface of the plate; wherein the opening is sized to fit around a raised section of an electronic device; wherein the opening and the back piece forms a chamber to allow the protective covering for a raised section of the electronic device to fit inside; wherein a depth of the chamber is greater than a depth of the protective covering. Disclosed herein is a method of using the applicator device, comprising removing a top sheet from the applicator device, aligning a perimeter of the opening to a perimeter of the raised section for allowing the protective covering to align and cover the raised section, exerting a pressure to release the protective covering from the back piece so that the protective covering is adherent to the raised section.
