An expandable device includes a body with a first end, a second end, and a longitudinal axis. The body is movable between an expanded configuration and a collapsed configuration. A button is coupled to the first end of the body and includes an inner surface and an engaging member carried by the inner surface. A platform includes an outer surface and a collar extending away from the outer surface and the collar defines a cavity. A locking device is carried by the second end of the body, and a portion of the locking device is adapted to be removably disposed in the cavity of the platform for releasably coupling the body to the platform. When the body is in the collapsed configuration, the engaging member of the button engages the locking device such that the locking device is rotatable relative to the platform between an unlocked and a locked configuration.

The present disclosure provides hands-free item carrying devices and related methods. The devices include a support platform including an interior surface with an item support portion, a bottom and top ends. The devices further include a flexible stabilizing portion coupled to a bottom portion of the support platform and positioned adjacent to the interior surface. The devices also include a body harness with a pair of shoulder straps, at least one first end portion coupled to the stabilizing portion, and at least one second end portion coupled to at least one of the stabilizing portion and the support platform. When the shoulder straps are worn by a user, the support platform is selectively movable between an open positioned angling away from the user from the bottom end with the top end being distal to the user, and a closed positioned with the top end being proximate to the user.

A carrying clip for an electronic device includes a first clip body, a second clip body, and a spring tab; the first clip body is provided with a snap ring on which a notch is provided; the second clip body is rotatably connected to the first clip body and is provided with a groove, the snap ring of the first clip body is snapped and assembled in the groove of the second clip body and is rotatable along the wall surface of the groove, the wall surface of the groove is uniformly formed with a plurality of snapping slots; the spring tab comprises an annular spring tab body and a protrusion projected on the spring tab body, the spring tab body is snapped and assembled in the snap ring of the first clip body, the protrusion projects out of the notch of the snap ring and abuts against the wall surface of the groove of the second clip body; when the first clip body rotates with respect to the second clip body, the protrusion of the spring tab rotates along the wall surface of the groove alternatively abuts against the snapping slots or non-snapping slots of the wall surface of the groove so as to form stages.

A support system for use with a portable electronic device comprises a base, a resiliently deformable support member, and a resiliently deformable invertible member. The invertible member is connected to the support member and invertible between a retracted position having a convex configuration overlapping the support member provided on the base and having a convex configuration projecting outwardly from the base and an extended position inverted from the convex position wherein the invertible member has a concave configuration projecting outwardly from the support member. Central portions of the support member and the invertible member together define an actuatable portion. The actuatable portion is operable by depression thereof when the invertible member is in the retracted position thereof to inwardly deform the central portions of the invertible member and the support member so as to initiate inversion of the invertible member from the retracted position to the extended position.

A flexible band wearable electronic device includes a plurality of rigid links. The flexible band wearable electronic device also includes a number of pivot joints coupling the plurality of rigid links together. The flexible band wearable electronic device further includes a first electronic device on a first of the plurality of rigid links, and a second electronic device on a second of the plurality of rigid links. The flexible band wearable electronic device still further includes an electrical communication pathway between first electronic device and the second electronic device and through at least a portion of one of the number of pivot joints.

A wearable band may include a first strap portion including a loop, and a second strap portion positionable through the loop of the first strap portion. The second strap portion may include a multi-pole magnet assembly, the multi-pole magnet assembly including two or more magnets arranged in a multi-pole magnet structure and at least one discrete shunt positioned over a surface of the multi-pole magnet structure.

An ear instrument, including: a first body; a second body having one end rotatably coupled to the first body; and a first fixing member having a side coupled to the other end of the second body. The first fixing member is coupled to the rear part of the user's ear when the ear instrument is fitted to the user's ear. The first fixing member is formed in a C-shape.

The present invention relates to an apparatus for detachably engaging wireless headsets (100), and more particularly to detachably engage with individual wireless earpiece modules. Accordingly, the apparatus includes: a) a neck-band or neck-loop module (110) with at least one battery pack (112); b) at least one earpiece holders (116); wherein the at least one earpiece holder (116) is adapted to be detachably engaged with at least one wireless earpiece module (120); and wherein the at least one battery pack (112) of the neck-band or neck-loop module (110) is configured to supply power to the at least one wireless earpiece module (120) via the at least one earpiece holder (116).

A clip-slider includes a first clip member and a second clip member. The second clip member is pivotally connected to the first clip member. Also, the second clip member includes a semi-enclosed tailpiece. The semi-enclosed tailpiece extends from a rear portion of the second clip member. The clip-slider may be used to attach an audio cable to clothing, or to cinch the audio cable.

A utility carrier device has a first shell, a backing and a first wing. The first shell is shaped to cover a part of a first item to be secured. The backing is secured to the first shell, thereby forming a first pocket between the first shell and the backing. The first pocket is configured to secure the first item to the utility carrier device. The first wing is attached to and extends from a first end of the first shell. A first spacer is positioned between the first wing and the first end of the first shell, the first spacer having a flexible or compressible material that allows the first wing to flex relative to the first shell.
