Methods and apparatuses are disclosed for fabricating an electronic device with an integrated railing system that detachably couples mounting hardware to the electronic device. By selectively detaching the mounting hardware, the electronic device may be made more compact and portable. In some embodiments, the railing system is fabricated substantially contemporaneous to fabricating the electronic device, such as by extrusion of the railing and the electronic device together. This fabrication approach may reduce the overall cost and complexity of manufacturing the railing system.

A coupler for removable coupling an object to a support. The coupler includes a cover, a ring, and a base. The cover couples to the support. The ring includes a first arm, a second arm, a third arm, a fourth arm, a first stop, and a second stop. Each arm of the ring is formed of a resilient material. The ring is positioned in a cavity of the cover. The base couples to the accessory. The base cooperates with the cover and the ring to couple to the cover and to rotate from a decoupled position to an intermediate position and further to a clocked position.

The present invention is directed to a device, system and method of attaching an electronic device to a belt, and to a belt having an attached electronic device, that will sit away from the user's body when in use and will be held close to the user's body when not in use. The various embodiments of the present invention also enable the easy transition of the electronic device from the in-use position to the stored position and vice versa. One embodiment of the present invention utilizes two belt clips and a gooseneck electronic device holder to achieve these goals.

An over-the-shoulder bag that has a portable, multicompartment container assembly with a single, adjustable, L-shaped shoulder strap member, a substantially horizontal jog of the shoulder strap member substantially disposed, when worn by a user, at or below the bottom portion of the container assembly. The container is opened by slidably moving at least one first slider member along a primary flexible strip of metal or plastic with interlocking projections. A water bottle pocket member can hold a water bottle on an outer portion surface of the L-shaped shoulder strap. At least one external pocket member is disposed on an outer surface of the container assembly and in a curved disposition and opened by sliding at least one second tab disposed on at least one secondary flexible strip of metal or plastic with interlocking projections. The inventive concept has at least one USB port and a panic button and speaker assembly.

In some embodiments, a beverage holder includes a beverage receptacle, an accessory receptacle, and a shaft. The beverage receptacle defines a cylindrical volume and includes a flat base for supporting a beverage container, the flat base having a circular shape with a first diameter; a first arm having a second diameter and at least partially encircling the cylindrical volume; and a spine connecting the base and the arm. The accessory receptacle defines a rectangular volume and is connected to the base and to the first arm of the beverage receptacle. The shaft includes a first section connected to the base, and a second section with a pointed end for securing the beverage holder into the ground where the first and second sections are connectable by a threaded section.

A slidable accessory system includes a case body configured to accommodate a portable electronic device, the case body having a case length and two tracks spanning from a track top and extending along at least a portion of the case length towards a bottom of the case body. The slidable accessory system also includes a platform having two engaging arms each of which is adapted to slidably engage within a corresponding one of the two tracks. An accessory is attachable to a top side of the platform.

The present specification discloses systems, devices, and methods and uses provide a mounting system which includes rail and a bracket which is selectively secured to the rail. A bracket disclosed herein selectively and/or automatically secures or locks to a rail disclosed herein when positioned on the rail by actuating or triggering a locking mechanism disclosed herein to adopted a locked configuration. In addition, a bracket disclosed herein may be selectively removed from a rail by actuating or triggering a locking mechanism disclosed herein to adopted an unlocked configuration. The disclosed mounting systems, devices, and methods enable a device to be protected from impact and moisture exposure, enable a device to be securely mounted on a base, and/or enable a device to be quickly secured and removed from a base.

An attachment system for a portable electronic device includes a clip unit including a clip magnet disposed between a base plate and a top cover and a clip lip formed on the top cover; and an attachment adapter for attached to a back side of the base plate and configured for attachment of the clip unit to an article. The clip magnet is positioned to be aligned with a magnet in the portable electronic device when mated with the portable electronic device. The attachment system enables the portable electronic device to be quickly and easily attached to a desired article and further enable quick release of the portable electronic device from the attachment system.

A finger grip is attachable to a handheld device for assisting a user in operating the handheld device. The finger grip includes one or more finger slots, where each finger slot includes an edge and is configured to accommodate one or more lower fingers of a hand of a user, and where the edge is configured to provide a rest to the lower finger accommodated by the respective finger slot. The finger grip further includes a back for attaching the finger grip to a back of the handheld device, allowing a thumb of the hand to have a reach on a range of the front of the handheld device when the lower fingers are accommodated by the finger slots in a position. The finger grip may further include a raised area configured for providing support to the hand.

One or more earbuds comprise one or more external connectors for removably coupling the earbuds with an additional article. The one or more earbuds are additionally able to comprise magnets for removably coupling with each other. In some embodiment, the one or more earbuds are configured to removably couple with a base unit. Based on a coupling and decoupling of the one or more earbuds with the base unit, a signal is sent to control a remotely located electronic device.
