  • Publication number: 20240374000
    Abstract: Described herein are leather wallets including one or more multi-layer plates. The multi-layer plate(s) can be in the form of a sandwich construction. In some embodiments, the multi-layer plate can comprise a substrate layer, a polymeric layer, and/or a material layer. In some embodiments, the material layer comprises a soft material like leather, synthetic leather, or the like. The disclosure herein improves on the prior art, in which wallet products using multi-layer plates involved the use of only hard (e.g., non-leather) materials.

  • Patent number: 12119174
    Abstract: A magnetic plate may be provided by a device, comprising: a first magnet, a second magnet, and a third magnet; a plate defining: a first indentation in which the first magnet is disposed; a second indentation in which the second magnet is disposed; and a third indentation in which the third magnet is disposed; and a contact surface; and, a target area; wherein: the first indentation, the second indentation, and the third indentation are located on the plate relative to a target area of the plate so that a net magnetic field generated by the first magnet, second magnet, and third magnet has a field strength that is below a predefined threshold within the target area. A keying feature may be provided so as to prevent misalignment between the plate and a device to which it can be magnetically connected.

  • Patent number: 12114743
    Abstract: There is disclosed a compact wallet, comprising at least two rigid plates at least one having a channel into which an encircling elastic band is interposed to bias the at least two rigid plates inwardly and securely hold the card-like contents while providing elastic volume therebetween while allowing freedom for the dynamic extension and contraction of the band over the entire running length of the wallet. The wallet includes an auxiliary feature removably attached within the interior at least one of the at least two rigid plates interposed using a tang inserted into a recess formed inside the plate, the tang having a hook, the hook extending at an angle to the tang, the hook engaging an undercut of the recess to prevent inadvertent dislodgement of the auxiliary feature from the recess.

  • Patent number: 12079541
    Abstract: A system for refinement of a voice query interpretation interprets a voice query received at a voice-enabled device to identify commands responsive to the voice query for execution at the voice-enabled device, and enables refinement of the interpretation of the voice query through a graphical user interface generated and displayed at a GUI-capable device. The graphical user interface includes a set of selectable options relating to the voice query and identifying a refinement of the interpretation of the voice query to enable control and/or adjustment of commands to be executed by the voice-enabled device. For example, if one of the selectable options is selected, then a command associated with the selected option is identified and executed by the voice-enabled device.

  • Patent number: 12070112
    Abstract: A device, comprising a first plate, a second plate, a third plate, a plurality of permanent fasteners, and a plurality of removable fasteners, wherein the permanent fasteners are configured such that the permanent fasteners secure the first plate to the second plate the removable fasteners are configured such that the removable fasteners rigidly secure the second plate to the third plate. The device permits a user to customize an article, such as a piece of luggage, with a customized third plate (e.g., bearing a user's name) which may be affixed to the article and later removed from the article as desired. The device disclosed herein thus, in some embodiments, may take the form of a removable, replaceable nameplate.
