The carrier/bag/pouch of the present invention is one that can be accessed quickly and easily and it provides quick and easy access to the items inside. It accomplishes this by virtue of its many structural parameters, including, but not limited to its size, pockets, compartments, its attachment choices, any of these can be such that it can easily be added to any outfit or bag on the way out of the house or the car, motorcycle, etc.

A system for holding a device. The system may include a first securing member and a second securing member respectively located at a first end and a second end of the device holding apparatus. The system may also include where each of the first securing member and the second securing member further includes a first securing member portion and a second securing member portion that define a loop configured to receive a respective corner of a device. The system may also include a bottom support strap connecting the first securing member and the second securing member. The system may also include a first upper support strap connected to the first securing member. Further, the system may include a second upper support strap connected to the second securing member.

The present disclosure relates generally to food holders and in particular to a food holder for holding food and/or food containers. The food holder may include a receptacle. The receptacle may include an insulated inner surface for keeping contents at a desired temperature. Food holder may further include an expanded form or a collapsed form for positioning within an internal compartment of a garment. In addition, food holder may include a strap attached to said receptacle. Advantageously, the food holder may be constructed to hang from a user's neck for hands free use and ease of access to contents within the food container.

According to the present disclosure, one or more of a connection ring, a connection string, and beads are selectively separably connected to a band for supporting a mobile phone with a finger inserted therein, so a user can present his/her more individual and aesthetic decoration.

Further, a support plate insertion hole for applying a mobile phone support configuration is formed at the center of the rear side of an existing mobile phone or mobile phone case such that a band support plate having the band insertion hole for inserting the band is inserted and supported by a locking step formed at the support plate insertion hole or the band support plate.

Accordingly, it is possible to more easily support and use a mobile phone equipped with the mobile phone support configuration while keeping the mobile phone thin without manufacturing molds one by one for the models of mobile phones that are continuously and variously changed or without an increase of the thickness of the mobile phone by a separate attachment protruding outward due to the mobile phone support configuration.

A band insertion groove is formed on the inner surface of the band support plate between the band insertion holes so that the band inserted in the band insertion holes is seated in the band insertion groove.

Further, a decorative pattern is attached around the band support plate and the support plate insertion hole of the mobile phone or mobile phone case, so decoration can be presented.

A camera carrying system of the invention comprises a base attachment configured to be affixed to a bottom face of a camera, the base attachment including spatially-separated first and second bottom eyelets. A shoulder strap having first and second strap ends is connected to the first and second bottom eyelets and creates first and second tether points. The tether points define a rotation axis lying substantially parallel to the bottom face of the camera, substantially parallel to a rear face of the camera, and beneath a center-of-mass of the camera. A tripod adapter may be integrally formed in the base attachment so the camera can be readily mountable to a tripod once disconnected from the base attachment. A method is provided for stabilizing the carrying of a camera by a shoulder strap. The method comprises use of the camera carrying system.

An airplane tray cover multi-compartment holder system and method for holding and transporting a plurality of airplane tray covers. The system and method generally includes a case with a plurality of individual compartments for holding a tray cover isolated from other compartments. Individual compartments are defined by an arrangement of exterior and interior panels and surfaces. Each compartment has a corresponding door that is pivotable between open and closed positions. Each door has a window through which tray covers can be viewed without opening the door. A window may include a movable spring-biased latch for automatically latching the door to a stationary latch on the case as the door closes. The tray covers and compartments may have indicia that uniquely identify them. A tether with magnetic elements on its ends may be selectively attached to the case by joining the magnetic elements.

Apparatus selectively attachable to the outer case of a cellular telephone or other similarly sized portable device. The apparatus desirably includes a housing containing an elastomeric band that is principally disposed inside the housing when the apparatus is not in use. When the apparatus of the invention is attached to the outer case of a cell phone, a portion of the elastomeric band is manually withdrawn through an opening in the housing and can be releasably latched in place to form a flexible, continuous loop outside the housing. The flexible, continuous loop can be used as a selectively retractable carrying strap when the cell phone or other similar device is not in use. Alternatively, the flexible continuous loop can be used, for example, to support the cell phone around a user's neck for hands-free use when the user is engaged in other activities.

Apparatus and associated methods relate to a mask retaining lanyard device. In an illustrative example, the mask retaining lanyard device may include an accessory retaining lanyard, an accessory retaining module coupled to the accessory retaining lanyard for releasably couple to an accessory object, and a mask retaining lanyard portion coupled distally to the accessory retaining lanyard and configured to releasably couple to a facemask. The mask retaining lanyard portion, for example, may include two mask retaining arms. For example, each of the mask retaining arms may be fixedly attached to the accessory retaining lanyard in one end and configured to releasably couple to the facemask in the other end. Various embodiments may advantageously allow the facemask to be selectively operated between a stowage mode and a deployed mode while providing convenient access to often used accessories.

An asymmetrically shaped handheld controller and harness assembly for securing safety accessories to the handheld controller for electric personal mobility devices (EPMDs), and a kit thereof, generally includes an asymmetrically shaped handheld controller, an adjustable and a flexible strap that is perforated along its length, releasable connectors that secure the flexible strap about the controller, and headlight and taillight assemblies. The flexible strap conforms to at least three sides of the controller and has an oblong aperture sized to allow access through the strap to a thumb control on the controller. Stabilizing side members may connect accessories including horns, bells, and mirrors to the flexible strap. The controller is configured to wirelessly connect to EPMDs. The taillight operates as a brake light.
