First-aid systems having an ultra compact first-aid pouch configured to fit behind the ballistic plates of a protective vest are disclosed. In this configuration, the first-aid kit is protected from shrapnel and tearing, is easily locatable and removable and does not effect the user's freedom of movement. When the first-aid pouch is removed from its protected location, it presents the first-aid equipment in a logical and easily viewable manner.

An eyewear retention clip is configured to secure a wearer’s eyewear to their clothing (e.g., a shirt pocket, collar, etc.). The eyewear retention clip is able to easily attach and remove from a variety of glasses without the use of tools. Attaching the clip to eyewear is made easier as the eyewear retention clip is made from a stretchable material (e.g., silicone, neoprene, etc.) that can securely conform to a variety of glasses/temple arm shapes. At the same time, the material is soft enough to not irritate the skin of a wearer or damage/snag clothing of a wearer.

An attachment system includes a wearable carrier and an attachment slot. The wearable carrier is formed at least in part from a flexible material having an outer surface and an inner surface opposite the outer surface. The attachment slot is formed through the flexible material and configured to receive a strap of an attachment accessory. The attachment slot extends from a first end to a second end and includes a first segment, a second segment, and a third segment. The first segment extends from the first end to the second segment. The second segment extends from the first segment to the third segment. The third segment extends from the second segment to the second end. The first segment and the second segment define a first non-orthogonal angle therebetween. The third segment and the second segment define a second non-orthogonal angle therebetween.

The invention relates generally to wearable accessory carriers for mechanical circulatory support systems, and more specifically relates to belts for carrying peripheral components of a VAD. Such wearable accessory carriers may be suitable for carrying and retaining peripheral components of the VAD in a safe, comfortable, and convenient manner. In certain aspects, the invention provides a wearable accessory carrier configured as an elastic belt with several pockets for holding peripheral components. In other aspects, a wearable accessory carrier may be configured as a belt with a magnetic strip configured to carry one or more modular compartments or pockets for holding peripheral components via magnetic attachment. The wearable accessory carriers disclosed herein may be sized to fit around or configured to be worn on a patient's waist, lower or upper torso, thigh, calf, arm, or other limb.

Systems and apparatuses for supporting electronic devices are described. Such systems and apparatuses provide significant adaptability to position an electronic device in commonly used locations by using an interface that is readily provided in virtually any location. Furthermore, the systems and apparatuses described herein include cradles that adaptable to a wide array of electronic device dimensions, including width and depth or thickness.

Brassieres and methods for forming brassieres are described. In one aspect, a brassiere includes a left cup, a right cup, and a pouch receiving area formed on an inside of the left cup or the right cup. The pouch receiving area includes a fastener that secures a removable pouch on an inside of at least one of the left cup or the right up.

A hinged support apparatus and method for a portable electronic display device is disclosed that includes a mounting plate and an elongated base each, respectively, having a proximal and a distal end portion. The hinged support apparatus includes a mounting plate and an elongated base, at least a portion of which is disposed upon and coplanar with the mounting plate. The mounting plate and the elongated base can include tenons that can engage in position stops located in mortises in the opposite parts. Using these tenons and mortises, the distal end of the elongated base can be locked or interlocked into a position at a splayed out angle from the mounting plate for easier viewing.

A badge holding device is disclosed that includes a badge holder, an attachment mechanism, and a connector. The badge holder is configured to hold a name tag or similar item and includes a back plate having a top edge, a bottom edge, a first lateral edge, and a second lateral edge, and a cover pivotally connected to the bottom edge of the back plate by a hinge. At least a portion of the cover is transparent. The attachment mechanism is configured to attach the badge holding device to an article of clothing. The connector extends between the badge holder and the attachment mechanism, and the connector is attached to the back plate proximal to the top edge. A width of the connector is at least 25% of a width of the back plate measured between the first lateral edge and the second lateral edge.

A tether clip comprises first and second clip portions and a connector. The first clip portion has a first intermediate portion interconnecting a first clamping end and a first connector end, and the second clip portion has a second intermediate portion interconnecting a second clamping end and a second connector end. The first and second intermediate portions are pivotally connected. The connector is positioned between the first and second connector ends and is configured and arranged to connect to a tether. When a force is exerted upon the connector, the connector moves relative to the first and second clip portions, and when the connector moves in a direction toward distal ends of the first and second connector ends, the first and second connector ends move apart and the first and second clamping ends move toward each other to increase a clamping force by the first and second clamping ends.

A clothing integrated tab system is disclosed. The clothing integrated tab system may include an anchor panel. The anchor panel may include a first aperture, a second aperture, a channel extending between the first aperture and the second aperture, and a bridge tab. The bridge tab may be disposed between the first aperture and the second aperture as well as extending over the channel. The clothing integrated tab system may include a tab member removably coupled to the anchor panel and extending through the first aperture, the channel and the second aperture.
