A system for holding an electronic device includes a body and a connection device for connecting an electronic device to the body, at least a portion of the connection device attached to the body. The system further includes a clip, the clip having a top portion and a bottom portion, the clip attached to the body. The system further includes a cam lever, the cam lever oriented in the body and in communication with the clip, the cam lever having a first position and a second position, the first position characterized by the cam lever not engaging the clip, the second position characterized by the cam lever engaging the clip, and causing the top and bottom portion of the clip to be pushed together.
MAGNETIC MOUNT SYSTEM
A magnetic mounting system is provided. The system includes a device having a magnetic attachment feature and a magnetic device mount. The magnetic device mount has a mating magnetic attachment feature. The magnetic attachment feature and mating magnetic attachment feature allow specific angular, radial, and/or longitudinal alignment of the device relative to the mount without a mechanical interface. An electronic device holder and charging system with integrated charging and data transfer interface and a self-aligning, magnetic coupling and docking interface with on-demand decoupling feature are also disclosed.
Integrated keychain assemblies for in-vehicle stowage of vehicular keys and key fobs while operating vehicles
Integrated keychain assemblies that each include a keychain fob and a keychain holder for removably receiving and holding the keychain fob. In some embodiments the keychain holder is configured to hold a single instantiation of the keychain fob at a time and is useful, for example, for allowing a driver of a vehicle to conveniently stow a vehicle key fob while operating the vehicle. In some embodiments, the keychain fob includes a body having a mechanical-interlock structure and the keychain holder includes a receiver-base having a mechanical-interlock structure that provides a conformal mechanical interlocking fit that holds the keychain fob against gravity when the integrated assembly is in use. The body and the receiver-base include complementary magnetic-attraction elements that attract one another to hold the keychain fob in the conformal mechanical interlocking fit.
Fastening apparatus
A fastening apparatus is configured to fasten an electronic device to other objects. The fastening apparatus includes a fastening base, a connection assembly pivotably connected to the fastening base, a first magnet, and an adhesive layer positioned on the fastening base configured to fix the fastening base to other objects. The connection assembly includes a connection portion and a second hinge positioned on the connection portion. The first magnet is positioned on a side of the connection portion to detachably grip the electronic device, and the second hinge is positioned on other side of the connection portion opposite to the first magnet. The second hinge is pivotably connected to the fastening base.
CRASH-READY, PORTABLE, COMPARTMENTALIZATION DEVICE
A crash-ready, portable, item compartmentalization device (100) includes a shell (300) which includes a first half shell (105) and a second half shell (205). The first half shell (105) and the second half shell (205) have substantially similar dimensions and define an interior space (710) and an exterior space (715). One or more pouches (900) are removably coupled to the shell (300) in the interior space (710). The crash-ready, portable, item compartmentalization device (100) may be relocated throughout the interior of an emergency vehicle when used with an equipment mounting system or taken to the field for use away from the emergency vehicle. The individual pouches (900) may also be removed and replaced with stocked pouches to replenish the crash-ready, portable, item compartmentalization device (100).
MAGNETIC POUCH ATTACHMENT MECHANISM WITH CRASH STABLE LOCKING TEETH
A magnetic pouch attachment mechanism includes one or more magnetic pouch mounts (500) having an alignment plate (505) with one or more magnetic areas (520) disposed within the alignment plate (505). The magnetic pouch mount (500) also includes a pouch (900) removably coupled with the one or more magnetic pouch mounts (500) such that when the pouch (900) is placed in proximity to the one or more magnetic pouch mounts (500), an attractive magnetic force is exerted between the pouch (900) and the one or more magnetic pouch mounts (500) such that the pouch (900) aligns with and couples to the one or more magnetic pouch mounts (500). A mounting bracket (920) coupled to the pouch (900) includes one or more bracket magnetic areas (935) disposed within the mounting bracket (920) and configured to induce an attractive magnetic force with the one or more magnetic areas (520).
Magnetic Purse System
A magnetic purse system includes a vehicle that has a gas tank. The gas tank is comprised of a magnetic material. A purse is provided to contain objects. The purse includes a pair of wings and the purse has an electromagnetic shield. The purse is selectively positioned on the gas tank when the vehicle is ridden. A plurality of magnets is provided and each of the magnets is coupled to the purse and each of the wings. Each of the magnets magnetically engages the gas tank when the purse is positioned on the gas tank. In this way the purse is stored when the vehicle is driven.
Magnetic Quick Mounting Unit For Construction Machines, Method, And Construction Machine Having Such A Quick Mounting Unit
The present invention relates to a magnetic quick mounting unit for construction machines, particularly road pavers, having a positioning mark configured for permanent attachment to a construction machine, an attachment device which can be magnetically attached on the positioning mark, an alignment mark arranged on the attachment device and indicating the alignment of the attachment device, and an alignment aid arranged on the positioning mark, the alignment mark and the alignment aid being configured such that the alignment of the attachment device relative to the construction machine can be read from the relative position of the alignment mark to the alignment aid when the attachment device has been attached on the positioning mark. The present invention further relates to a method for magnetic quick-mounting of an attachment device, particularly a camera, to a construction machine, particularly a road paver, comprising the steps of: attaching a positioning mark with an alignment aid on the construction machine; attaching an alignment mark on the attachment device; magnetically attaching the attachment device on the positioning mark; and aligning the attachment device by means of the relative positions of the alignment aid and the alignment mark. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a construction machine having such a magnetic quick mounting unit.
Magnetic Attachment Panel
The magnetic attachment panel is used to display a computer tablet, toys, and other useful objects for entertainment of persons and in particular children. The magnetic attachment panel has a flexible base panel and a plurality of magnets either attached to the surface of the flexible base panel or integrated into the flexible base panel at magnetic sections. The magnets create magnetic fields at the magnetic sections sufficient to magnetically attach a computer tablet housed within a computer tablet retainer. Similarly, toys or other objects may be removably attached to the flexible base panel if that have a metallic composition, or metallic accessory tabs or harness attached to them. After use, the magnetic attachment panel can be easily rolled into a closed position for transportation and/or storage. The magnets ensure that the magnetic attachment panel remain in the closed position when not in use.
HITCH MOUNTED THEATER SYSTEM
A device and method for the display of images on a screen is described. The device includes a frame assembly configured to hold a screen. The frame assembly includes a hitch for attachment to a receiver hitch of a vehicle. The screen can be adjusted to face either a forward or rearward direction. The device further includes a stand. The stand may be configured to rest on the vehicle for projection onto the screen or rest on the ground. The stand supports a displaying device and is configured to adjust the elevation of the displaying device to affect the displayed image.
