Kits, assemblies and components for positioning a device, methods of positioning a device, positioned devices. In some aspects, a device is an electronic device, a smart phone or a camera. A representative method comprises adhering at least a first attachment element (suction element and/or releasable adhesive material) of an attachment assembly (comprising the first attachment element and a first interface element (at least one magnetic element and/or at least one magnet-adhering element)) to a first surface, and magnetically adhering a device assembly (comprising a first magnet-adhering element and a device) to the attachment assembly, the first interface element attached to the first attachment element, the device attached to the first magnet-adhering element. A representative positioned device comprises a device attached to a first magnet-adhering element which is magnetically adhered to a magnetic element (which is attached to an attachment element that is adhered to a first surface.

A protective case includes an inner liner, a first aperture, a second aperture, and an outer shell. The inner liner is configured for receiving the electronic device and the first aperture is configured to permit access to the touchscreen interface of the electronic device. The second aperture is configured to permit optical access to the camera of the installed electronic device. The outer shell includes an attachment mechanism for attaching an accessory to the protective case. One of the attachment mechanism of the outer shell and the accessory includes a receiver configured to slidably receive a rail member of the other of the attachment mechanism of the outer shell and the accessory. The attachment mechanism of the outer shell may include a snap feature having an interference fit with a corresponding snap feature of the accessory to keep the accessory removably secured to the protective case.

A phone security case with ejection mechanism having a case body, a pair of support arms, and a swivelable belt clip disposed on the case body. An ejection mechanism, a central processing unit, a tethering mechanism, a message sensor mechanism, a rechargeable battery, and a speaker are also disposed on the case body.

A backpack apparatus is disclosed. The backpack apparatus includes a backpack harness, an external frame, and a backpack. The backpack harness includes a vertical support element, shoulder straps, and a hip belt. The shoulder straps and hip belt couple to the vertical support element. The backpack harness includes a first portion of a coupling mechanism. The external frame includes a second portion of the coupling mechanism. The external frame releasably couples to the backpack harness by coupling the first portion to the second portion. The backpack releasably couples to the backpack harness by coupling a first portion of the coupling mechanism on the backpack harness to a second portion of the coupling mechanism on the backpack. The backpack releasably couples to the external frame.

An apparatus includes an external frame of a backpack system and a game strap. The external frame includes a horizontal and vertical sections. The horizontal section is pivotably coupled to the bottom of the vertical section. The horizontal section rotates between a vertical position and a horizontal position. The horizontal section supports the vertical section in a vertical position when the horizontal section is in the horizontal position. A bottom of the game strap is coupled to an end of the horizontal section of the external frame. The end is distal to where the horizontal section pivotably couples to the vertical section. A top of the game strap is coupled to the vertical section of the external frame. The game strap includes openings sized to accommodate a snout of a head of an animal. The bottom or the top of the game strap are releasably coupled to the external frame.

Provided is a sports water bottle, including: a water bottle body and a plurality of functional accessories. A peripheral side of the water bottle body has a first outer wall and a second outer wall, and a first connecting piece or a second connecting piece is arranged on the first outer wall and/or the second outer wall. Each of the functional accessories is provided with the second connecting piece corresponding to the first connecting piece on the water bottle body; and/or each of the functional accessories is provided with the first connecting piece corresponding to the second connecting piece. The first connecting piece and the second connecting piece are matched with each other and detachably connected.

A mobile hand cleaning station allows both hands to be cleaned with a minimal interaction of dirty hand(s) with the sanitizing apparatus. This device has the capability of containing and dispensing multiple flowable (e.g., liquid, gel, or foam) elements, such as a cleaning agent and water. The station includes an attachment point configured to balance the container(s) with their dispensing ends in a downward, but not straight down, orientation when the station is hung from the attachment point.

The tape measure has a tape, which is partially received within an interior of a housing. An attachment is fixedly attached with one side of the housing, and the attachment has an outer surface that faces away from the housing and that is provided with a knife sharpening material. The attachment allows a user to conveniently sharpen their knife without carrying around a separate sharpening stone.

A portable charging system includes a piece of baggage that has at least one outer pocket. A charging unit is provided and the charging unit is coupled to the piece of baggage. At least one electronic device is selectively electrically coupled to the charging unit to charge the electronic device.

An embodiment personal item management apparatus includes a wearable band having a fixed circumference that defines a first outer diameter; and a clasp coupled to the wearable band, the clasp having a second outer diameter that is less than the first outer diameter and being adapted to couple a personal item to the wearable band. In an exemplary embodiment, the ratio of the second outer diameter to the first outer diameter is about 0.4.
