  • Publication number: 20240063838
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a mount featuring one or more sets of embedded magnets which are designed to engage with complimentary sets of magnets disposed either in a protective case for use with the mount, or in a mobile device contained within such a protective case. The mount includes a pin which is magnetically actuated to extend into a hole disposed in the protective case when the case and the mount are brought within a prescribed distance. Thus, the case and the mount “snap together” and are restrained from sliding relative to one another by the pin.

  • Patent number: 11877634
    Abstract: A support having a magnetically assisted deployment and retraction mechanism which is designed for use with protective covers for personal electronic devices such as smartphones and tablet computing devices featuring a segmented support structure that deploys from a first channel when a shuttle located in a second channel disposed under the first channel is moved from a first position to a second position. The shuttle contains a first magnet and a second magnet, and the segmented support contains magnets which generate either attractive or repulsive forces depending on the position of the shuttle, which forces cause deployment of the support.

  • Publication number: 20230292896
    Abstract: A protective case for a wireless tracking device featuring a flexible annular bezel. One embodiment features an annular bezel having a conforming interior channel which engages the sides of the tracking device, and an upper opening, which leaves a portion of the upper side of the tracking device exposed. Certain embodiments feature a bezel that permits the tracking device to be inserted into the protective case relatively easily, while other embodiments feature a cover which engages with a base, making removal of the tracking device impractical without damaging the case itself. One embodiment may be used with shoelaces and features a flat elastomeric surface to which graphic designs may be applied.

  • Patent number: 11392171
    Abstract: A holder (101) for a mobile electronic device includes a case portion (102), a connection member (107), and a handle (106). The case portion is configured for holding the mobile electronic device. The handle is rotatable about the connection member. The connection member includes a first flange (112) on a first side of the connection member and a second flange (113) on a second side of the connection member opposite the first side of the connection member. The first flange is spaced from the second flange such that a first portion of the handle is held in an axial position relative to the case portion by the combination of and between the first flange and the second flange. The connection member is a single body. An entirety of the connection member is removable from the rest of the holder through the handle.
