Phone Holder
A phone holder includes a pocket having a rear wall and a front wall and configured to receive a phone; an elongate neck extending from an upper portion of the rear wall of the pocket and foldable relative to the rear wall of the pocket; and at least one magnet located on or in the neck. The neck is foldable so that a rear surface of the neck faces an opposite surface of the rear wall to enable the neck to overlie a waist band of clothing of the user or a belt or the like with the magnet being magnetically coupled by magnetic attraction to the phone at a location adjacent the phone to support the phone holder.
Shampoo support apparatus and method for use of same
A shampoo support apparatus and method for use of the same are disclosed. In one embodiment of the shampoo support apparatus, a body is configurable between a reclining configuration and a booster seat configuration. In the reclining configuration, the body provides a neck support and a back support. A support structure that may be placed above the body and may be adjustable is configured to accept and secure a smart device thereat and support the smart device at a smart device working distance from the neck support. In the booster seat configuration, the body folds into a rectangular shape to provide a seat.
Mobile Device Handle Accessory
A mobile device handle accessory designed to maintain the compact nature of the mobile device, secure a user's hand to the device in order to decrease the likelihood of dropping the mobile device, and minimize the detrimental effects of non-ergonomic hand position during prolonged mobile device use. Herein is described a mobile device handle accessory.
Grip apparatus for portable device
Provided is a grip apparatus for a portable device. The grip apparatus includes a base unit mounted on the portable device, a sliding hole formed in the base unit in a longitudinal direction of the base unit, a pair of sliders inserted into the sliding hole and independently movable along the sliding hole, and a band unit coupled to the pair of sliders and deformed to form a space, into which a finger is insertable, as at least one of the pair of sliders is moved.
Multi-configuration clamp system for electronic device
A support system which allows for the use and mounting of a smart phone, or similar electronic device, in a variety of ways. The support system may be adapted to function as a hand grip while supporting the smart phone during image acquisition, or while watching images on the smart phone. In another configuration, the support system may be adapted to attach to the user's belt. In another configuration, the support system may function as a support stand. In another configuration, the support system may be mounted on a tripod. The support system may include a kit of parts which allow for the modification of support accessories to allow for different configurations. The support system may include a removable shutter which may actuate the camera functions via wireless communication.
WEARABLE SLED SYSTEM FOR A MOBILE COMPUTER DEVICE
A wearable sled system for a mobile computer device includes an open-ended sled housing, a removable end cap, and a mounting assembly for mounting the sled housing onto a user's arm or belt. A mobile computer device is slidably received into the sled housing, and the end cap is received on the sled housing's open end to form a complete enclosure. The mounting assembly includes a rigid mounting plate having a front side configured to receive the back side of the sled housing. The mounting plate and the sled housing include locking formations for selectively securing the sled housing to the mounting plate. The mounting assembly further includes an attachment device secured to the back side of the mounting plate for removably mounting the system on the user.
DEVICE FOR HOLDING AND SUPPORTING ARTICLES
An apparatus (10) for holding and supporting articles including support means (20) having receiving means (25, 26, 27), one or more elongate members (30, 32, 34) each having a first end adapted to fit into said receiving means (25, 26, 27) of the support means (20), connector means (40) adapted to fit to a second end of any one or more elongate members (30, 32, 34) for releasably engaging a respective article.
Attachment Device
An attachment apparatus for selectively attaching a device to a flexible material, includes a first member, a second member, and a void. The first member has a first wall defining a first opening. The first member includes a first retention feature. The second member has a second retention feature selectively attached to the first retention feature in an attached state to connect the second member to the first member and to the flexible material. The void is formed between the second surface of the first wall and the flexible material when the second member is in the attached state. The first member is operable to support the device within the void between the second surface of the first member and the flexible material when the second member is in the attached state.
PORTABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICE CASE WITH THERMAL VENTS
A case for a portable electronic device (PED) is disclosed. The case includes a body having an interior surface configured to accept a PED and an exterior surface to be exposed to outside forces. A back vent that permits the transfer heat away from the PED and to the environment presents through the body of the case. A cushioning member is placed at or near the back vent on the interior surface of the case and may substantially or completely surround the back vent. When a PED is placed within the case, the fit of the PED and the case causes the cushioning member to press against the PED in order to create a cushion for the PED in the event of an outside force being applied to the case. The case may include a screen protector within a frame that attaches to the body.
Methods and apparatus for a low-profile coupler
A coupler for removeable 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.
