Abstract: A mobile device engagement apparatus may include an engagement housing member that extends from a first end to an opposing second end and defines an engagement element cavity. The apparatus may an engagement element that extends from a first engagement element end to an opposing second engagement element end. The engagement element may be moveable between at least one of a stored configuration, an operating configuration, and a secured configuration. The apparatus includes a connecting element configured to securely engage the engagement housing member and the engagement element with another. The connecting element may provide for the rotation of the engagement element with respect to the engagement housing member.

Abstract: A frame for a field monitor includes a front panel having a central opening, and a rear panel attached to the front panel in adjacent, spaced-apart relationship to define a receptacle for receiving and supporting a field monitor therein. The receptacle includes a substantially open periphery which provides access to cable ports and other controls on the monitor. The rear panel includes opposite first and second sides and a plurality of legs extending outwardly from the first side. Each leg is attached to the front panel so as to maintain the front and rear panels in adjacent, spaced-apart relationship. The rear panel and plurality of legs extending outwardly therefrom are a single, unitary body of material.

Abstract: A cable port protection apparatus includes a frame that is configured to be secured to a housing of an electronic device, and a cable retention mechanism attached to the frame that is configured to prevent unintentional removal of a cable from a cable port of the electronic device. The cable retention mechanism includes a pair of spaced-apart arms extending outwardly from the frame to define a cable receiving space. A gate is operably associated with the spaced-apart arms and is movable by a user between open and closed positions. When in an open position, a cable can be inserted by a user through the cable receiving space and connected to a cable port. When in a closed position, the cable is prevented by the gate from becoming disconnected from the cable port and from exerting potentially damaging forces on the cable port.
