BACKPACK, SHELTER, RAIN PONCHO, AND PACK COVER COMBINATION
Disclosed is a backpack, shelter, rain poncho/rainfly/pack cover combination. The combination is configured such that the tent is stored in a zippered front pocket of the backpack, a removable hooded rain poncho/rainfly/pack cover is stored in a pocket on the top of the pack, and a telescoping frame sits in an integrated sleeve within the pack, preferably against a foam backpanel. The front of the backpack is configured to form a wall of the tent, when the tent is erected. The telescoping frame typically consists of (i) one horizontal hollow tube arm; (ii) an adjustable hinge connected to each end of the horizontal tube arm, each hinge configured to lock at 90 degrees as well as a wider angle; and (iii) a vertical leg assembly connected to each adjustable hinge, each vertical leg assembly containing two telescoping hollow tubes.
Cellphone Carry Case Apparatus
A cellphone carrying case apparatus for easy cellphone transport and protection while preventing misplacement includes a case body defining a storage cavity configured to securely receive a smartphone. A flap is coupled to a back wall and has an open position exposing an open top side and a closed position covering the open top side and overlapping a front wall. A first mating member is coupled to the front wall and a second mating member is coupled to an inner surface of the flap. The second member is selectively engageable with the first mating member. A third mating member is coupled to the back wall of the case body and a fourth mating member is coupled to an article of clothing. The fourth mating member is selectively engageable with the third mating member to secure the case body to the article of clothing.
Protective case for a computing device
A composite case for a computing device including a first portion to protect and detachably connect to a display portion. The first portion may have perimetral fasteners disposed on its edges. A second portion is for protecting and detachably connecting to an input device portion of the computing device. The second portion may have perimetral fasteners disposed on its edges. The display and input device portions can be detachably connected to each other through a multi-pivot hinge unit operable to rotate about one or more computing device axes defined between the display and input device portions to move the computing device between open and closed states. A hinge cover portion can be connected to the first portion operable to detachably receive and surround the multi-pivot hinge of the computing device. A protective shell can be formed between first and second portions.
Attachment for a mobile device for reading barcodes and capturing non-barcode images
An attachment for a mobile device includes an attachment feature securable to the mobile device. The attachment also includes a first set of imaging optics that receives, from within a first field of view, first light defining a first portion of image data captured by an image sensing system of the mobile device. The first portion of the image data includes a barcode image. The first field of view is centered on a first optical pathway. The attachment also includes a second set of imaging optics that receives, from within a second field of view, second light defining a second portion of the image data. The second portion of the image data includes a non-barcode image. The second field of view is centered on a second optical pathway nonparallel to the first optical pathway.
PURSE STORAGE HOOK WITH PROTECTIVE COVER
A purse storage hook (1) having a C-shaped body (2) that is placed over an edge of a table or counter. A bottom support strap (6) extends from a bottom horizontal arm (4) of the purse storage hook and may be wrapped around one or more purse handles (16) to act as a sling that supports the purse handles and distributes pressure along a predetermined length of the purse handles. A protective cover (22) protects a purse from spills while hanging from the purse storage hook or while being carried.
LUGGAGE WRAP
A luggage wrap provides a weather resistant garment like cover that wraps over a piece of luggage, helping to protect it from dirt, grime, scuffing, and inclement weather. As a snug fitting wrap for the luggage, it provides an element of security in that it can prevent pilferage of items carried in the luggage, as other less secure luggage items are likely in close proximity. With a selection of colors, designs, and indicia, the luggage wrap can provide a ready means of identification of the luggage.
COMBINATION REMOVABLE COVER FOR PROTECTING LUGGAGE AND FOR SELECTIVELY CONVERTING LUGGAGE TO A BACKPACK
A removable cover for protecting an article of luggage is provided. The cover has a tubular section with top and bottom open ends and two cover sections extending from respective opposite perimeter end edges of the tubular section for covering the top and bottom open ends of the tubular section. The tubular section is configured to be placed over and cover front, rear, top, bottom and sides of an article of luggage. In an exemplary embodiment, a rear side of the tubular section is provided with at least one compartment for storing shoulder straps and for allowing the shoulder straps to be readily removed from the compartment to allow the user to carry the luggage in the form of a backpack.
Hybrid frame sleeve case
A sleeve case is for a portable electronic device (e.g., laptop computer or electronic tablet device) and includes neoprene or fabric panels attached to an elastic polymer frame, such as ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA). The elastic polymer frame extends around a perimeter of the sleeve to provide cushioning or padding for side edges of the sleeve. A magnetic or other latching mechanism is used to secure an opening on one side of the sleeve.
Holder For Mobile Electronic Device
A holder (101) for a mobile electronic device includes a case portion (102), a connection member (107), and a handle (106). The case portion is configured for holding the mobile electronic device. The handle is rotatable about the connection member. The connection member includes a first flange (112) on a first side of the connection member and a second flange (113) on a second side of the connection member opposite the first side of the connection member. The first flange is spaced from the second flange such that a first portion of the handle is held in an axial position relative to the case portion by the combination of and between the first flange and the second flange. The connection member is a single body. An entirety of the connection member is removable from the rest of the holder through the handle.
Mobile device case for capturing digital images
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.
