Universal securement strap for personal items
An adjustable securement device which retains and secures items of personal property without slippage. The device includes an elastic band, an at least one sliding cinch, and a lanyard attachment mechanism. The elastic band is used to firmly secure and hold the item. The sliding cinch includes a constricting body and a strap-receiving hole. The strap-receiving hole traverses through the constricting body. The elastic band is slidably positioned within the strap-receiving hole to position the body of the elastic band adjacent to itself in order to create two separate loops. The first loop is positioned around the item and constricted tightly by sliding the sliding cinch adjacent to the item, thus securing and holding the item. The second loop is used to attach the lanyard attachment mechanism to the elastic band. The lanyard attachment mechanism is coupled to the elastic band and allows the device to attach to external structures.
L-BRACKET
There is provided an L-bracket for a camera. The L-bracket comprises a base, an upright arm connected to the base and a fastening element arranged in use to provide a releasable connection between the camera and the L-bracket; and a connector attached to one of the base or the arm, the connector being arranged in use to engage a dock mountable on a strap, the connector being shaped to engage the dock in multiple orientations.
Lanyard
A lanyard with attachment members such as a tool holding member, tether key, or carabiner, is provided. The lanyard includes one or more elastic cords within a sheath. The sheath has a much lower elasticity than the elastic cord. The higher spring constant or modulus of elasticity of the sheath limits the total extended length of the lanyard in operation. The elastic cords stretch to absorb the energy of falling equipment up to the length of the outer sheath. The attachment members may be attached to the sheath or may include components of the sheath and or the elastic cord. The lanyard allows for an elastic response to absorb the energy of a falling tool and a restraint to the total extended length of the lanyard.
TOOL TRANSFER SYSTEM
A system for transferring an object from one user to another user that is useful to prevent unintentional dropping of the object is disclosed. A cam is rotatably connected to a structure that is configured to be attached to a first user. A central housing with two ports is configured to allow for the attachment of a tool by lanyard or other means. When the first cam is locked into the one of the housing ports, it cannot be released from the housing unless a second cam is inserted into the second housing port and captured. Once the second cam is captured the first cam is released, thus safely passing the tool from the first user to the second user while minimizing the chance of dropping the tool.
System case for storing and carrying cosmetic essentials
A cosmetic case has a generally rectangular shape with an internal space receive and hold multiple cosmetic cartridges containing various makeup products. This case has a slim-line design to facilitate easy storage and transport. Cosmetic cartridges can be inserted into the case from multiple and stored depending on the particular embodiment of the case. A securing means inside the case prevents inserted cartridges from dislodging from the case until desired by the user. The cosmetic case and system provides the advantage and ability to store cosmetic cartridges of different shapes and dimension in the case for optimal use. This invention enables a user to efficiently store and carry various cosmetic products for quick use especially when one desires a makeup touch up.
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.
Apparatus with self-retracting elastomeric support band
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.
Pouch or pocket for attachment to a cell phone
A pouch for removable attachment to a mobile phone case that affords easier holding of the phone case by the user as well as secure holding of personal items in the pouch. The pouch does not interfere with use of the phone camera or with mounting the phone on a charger or car mount. A strap with fasteners such as snaps or fasteners directly attached to the case hold the pouch to the case.
APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CARRYING AND STORING FOOTWEAR
A system for carrying food apparel having device made of a continuous strip of material forming two or more loops and an interlocking member that when moved chases the diameter of the loops. The device contracts around shoes at various points including the mid sole region or the heels. The device is attachable to, for example, a travel bag, wrist-band, or shoulder band. The device may be attachable through, for example, a magnet, hook, button, velcro, zippers, clips or carabiner. In addition disclosed is a method of carrying foot apparel involving providing the device, placing a foot apparel into each loop of the device, tightening the loops, and attaching the loops to the exterior of a bag, hand strap, wrist strap, or shoulder strap.
