The main body has a semi-elliptical profile and defines first and second opposing end portions with a clearance therebetween. At least one hair accessory having an elasticity is adapted to be disposed in the groove and span the periphery of the main body and the clearance. The main body has a rigidity arranged to distribute pressure from the at least one hair accessory away from the wrist and the elasticity of the at least one hair accessory is arranged to force the at least one hair accessory against the bottom portion of the groove and the sidewalls restrict lateral movement of it within the groove.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2016Date of Patent: September 6, 2016Inventors: Arni Thor Ingimundarson, Shireen Maria Thor

Patent number: 9430727Abstract: A data storage device serving as a portable card, magnetically encodeable card, or a magnetic credit card is shown. The data storage device includes a substrate having at least one surface. A high density, magnetically coercive material layer is disposed on or is deposited on the substrate for storing magnetic signals. The magnetically coercive material may have an axis of magnetization that is oriented in a predetermined direction relative to the at least one surface of the substrate. A layer of non-magnetically material is disposed on the substrate for defining an exchange break layer. A relatively hard, abradeable protective coating is formed on the magnetic material layer and has a thickness between a maximum thickness that materially attenuates magnetic signals passing between the magnetic material layer and a transducer and a minimum thickness enabling the protective coating to be abraded by usage in an ambient natural atmosphere operating environment.Type: GrantFiled: February 12, 2013Date of Patent: August 30, 2016Assignee: UltraCard, Inc.Inventors: Donald C. Mann, Bert D. Cook, Jr.

Patent number: 9364073Abstract: A survival pad that contains a variety of survival tools, but can, in itself, be used for a variety of survival implements. Survival items are imbedded in an insulating pad that is designed to slide into a daypack, backpack or vehicle survival kit. The invention is designed for everyday field use as well as unplanned emergencies. The pad can store items such as a rescue marker, light, whistle, pill pack, tape, flint, can opener, fire brick, compass, survey tape, candies, poncho lighter, sunscreen and/or a mirror. The pad can be used as a waterproof field “note pad”. It can also be used to build fires, fan fires, and collect food. The pad can be easily converted to a sun/rain hat or used as a body insulator, seat, or fishing float, or emergency signal, or as an emergency splint, or hiker knee brace or large game foot snare.Type: GrantFiled: October 11, 2013Date of Patent: June 14, 2016Inventor: Brian K.

Patent number: 9339094Abstract: A credit card holder having at least one internal slot for holding a credit card, the internal slot having opposed front and rear plates set at a distance approximately the thickness of a credit card, and also having fixed opposed side guides having credit card side guide surfaces set at a distance from each other of approximately the width of a credit card. A credit card push slide is positioned along an internal width of the slot for engaging the top of a credit card, the slide having opposed credit card slide guide surfaces in alignment with the guide surfaces of the fixed side guides. The slot and the push slide have stop surfaces which cooperate to prevent the slide from completely pushing the card out of the slot.Type: GrantFiled: July 28, 2014Date of Patent: May 17, 2016Assignee: Spectre WalletsInventors: Jeremiah Alexander Tucker-Skow, James Robert Stumpf

Patent number: 9215911Abstract: A belt buckle with a storage compartment uses a typical box frame buckle architecture with a storage compartment hingedly attached to a back side of the box frame on a side opposite a grab bar of the box frame. The storage compartment articulates between a closed position against the box frame and an open position. In the closed position, a pin is removably received within a receiver in order to secure the compartment in the closed position. When the storage compartment is in the closed position, pivot posts that hold the grab bar are within the storage compartment and the grab bar partially overlays an open side of the storage compartment.Type: GrantFiled: August 23, 2013Date of Patent: December 22, 2015Inventor: Christopher W.

Publication number: 20150060309Abstract: A durable, accessory cover assembly for a computing device, such as a cellular phone or a tablet computer. The accessory cover includes a frame, a first covering portion, and a second covering portion. The first covering can be composed of a wear-resistant material, such as leather; whereas, the second covering can be composed of a pliable particulate-absorbing material, such as microfiber. The first covering can be configured to seamlessly cover an external bottom surface of the frame, four external lateral surfaces of the frame, and four internal later surfaces of the frame, as well as an overlap region of an internal top surface of the frame. The second covering can be configured cover a majority of the surface area of the internal top surface of the frame, where it abuts the first covering along an annular region.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 22, 2014Publication date: March 5, 2015Inventors: Jared A.
