Crash-ready, portable, compartmentalization device
A crash-ready, portable, item compartmentalization device may include a shell which includes a first half shell and a second half shell. The first half shell and the second half shell may have substantially similar dimensions and define an interior space and an exterior space. One or more pouches may be removably coupled to the shell in the interior space. The crash-ready, portable, item compartmentalization device 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 may also be removed and replaced with stocked pouches to replenish the crash-ready, portable, item compartmentalization device.
Closure device for the releasable connecting of two parts
Provided is a closure device for the releasable connecting of two parts to each other including a first closure part, having a first base body, at least two first engaging sections formed on the first base body, spaced apart from each other along a loading direction and forming between them a gap, and at least one first magnetic section arranged on the first base body, and a second closure part, having a second base body, at least one second engaging section formed on the second base body, and at least one second magnetic section arranged on the second base body.
Attachment apparatuses and associated methods of use and manufacture
A system for carrying or using a device includes the device and at least one attachment apparatus. The device may include at least one attachment element. The attachment apparatus may include a length of material and at least one attachment point arranged on an end of the length of material. The at least one attachment point may include at least one magnetic feature configured to attach and detach the device and the length of material. The material can include but is not limited to cloth, metallic (magnetic and non-magnetic), fibrous material, and so forth.
Magneto-Mechanical Closure Device for Fastening to an Associated Assembly
A closure device for connecting two assemblies to each other includes a first closure part, which is associated to a first one of the assemblies and includes a first magnetic element, and a second closure part which includes a second magnetic element. The first closure part and the second closure part can be attached to each other along a closing direction by magnetic attraction between the first magnetic element and the second magnetic element, are mechanically and/or magnetically held at each other in a closed position, and can be separated from each other for opening the closure device. A connecting part includes a fastening device for fastening the second closure part to the connecting part and an integration portion for fixing the connecting part to a second one of the assemblies.
EARTIPS FOR COUPLING VIA WIREFORM ATTACHMENT MECHANISMS
Embodiments describe an eartip including an eartip body having an attachment end and an interfacing end opposite from the attachment end. The eartip body can include an inner eartip body having a sidewall extending between the interfacing end and the attachment end, the sidewall defining a channel and having a first thickness near the attachment end and a second thickness different from the first thickness at the interfacing end. The eartip can also include an attachment structure coupled to the inner eartip body at the attachment end, the attachment structure having an inner surface and an outer surface. The attachment structure can include an upper region interfacing with the sidewall and defining discrete through-holes, a lower region below the upper region where the inner surface defines a plurality of recesses positioned around the lower region, and a mesh extending across the channel and into the upper region.
GRIPPING ACCESSORY FOR PORTABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICES, GRIPPING ACCESSORY GROUP, ACCESSORY ASSEMBLY AND METHOD
A gripping accessory for a portable electronic device or for a case of a portable electronic device including a base body having an upper surface, a lower surface, and a side wall is provided. The side wall has a left housing and a right housing suitable for being grasped by a respective finger of a user's hand. A first magnetic element is joined to the base body near the lower surface and is suitable for generating a magnetic field to keep the lower surface stably coupled with the portable electronic device or case. A second magnetic element, different from the first magnetic element, is joined to the base body near the side wall or upper surface. The second magnetic element is suitable for generating a magnetic field suitable for coupling with an auxiliary accessory including magnetic or ferromagnetic material.
Attachment apparatuses and associated methods of use and manufacture
A system for carrying or using a device includes the device and at least one attachment apparatus. The device may include at least one attachment element. The attachment apparatus may include a length of material and at least one attachment point arranged on an end of the length of material. The at least one attachment point may include at least one magnetic feature configured to attach and detach the device and the length of material. The material can include but is not limited to cloth, metallic (magnetic and non-magnetic), fibrous material, and so forth.
Rollable and foldable jewelry case with tangle free magnetic attachments to roll or fold up into reduced size for conveyance or storage
A jewelry case with magnetic or Velcro attachment mechanisms, the case comprising a base material, a series of transverse straps provided approximately across the base material, the base material having magnetic material or Velcro provided therein, the straps having aligned magnetic material or Velcro provided therein, such that when the straps adjacent the base are folded over into closure, after jewelry has been laid on or around the magnets onto the base material, the magnetic straps hold the jewelry in position for roll up, or folding, and storage or transit of the jewelry case. The straps may be of differing lengths and numbers. A concealed compartment may be provided within the base material, on the inside or outside, and secured by a closure, such as a zipper, to conceal jewelry or other small personal items within the compartment, during usage. Various ties, straps or cords may be applied to the top edge of the base material, to hold the rolled up or folded case into closure, after usage. The cords and ties can also be used to suspend the bag when unfolded.
BAG WITH OPENING MECHANISM
A bag with an interior space and an opening includes an opening mechanism comprising a frame structure in communication with the opening, a biasing mechanism adapted to apply a biasing force to the frame structure to move the frame structure from a closed position to an open position, and a latching mechanism adapted to latch the frame structure in the closed position when engaged and to allow the frame structure to move by the biasing force to the open position when disengaged. Movement of the frame structure from the closed position to the open position causes the bag to open to allow access to the interior space. In one version. the frame structure comprises a front frame member pivotally connected to a rear frame member and wherein the biasing mechanism comprises a torsional spring that biases the front frame member to rotate away from the rear frame member.
Devices and accessories employing a living hinge
A device incorporating both a magnet and a living hinge may be employed to construct cases to protect electronic devices and to function as a closure for cases and lidded containers. Such cases often can be bent three 360° allowing the cases to be either closed protecting devices therein are closed upon themselves allowing the case to function to secure an electronic device to a substrate such as an article of clothing. The devices of the disclosure can also be used to organize and hold loose items together.
