  • Patent number: 10327538
    Abstract: The apparatus disclosed is an assembly of two main components entitled a main plunger and a head plunger, combined with other associated components that work in conjunction with the two plungers. The main plunger and head plunger each have a radial gear component, designed such that both radial gear components can interface and mesh with each other or with a corresponding radial gear integral to a custom case. In this manner, meshing of the radial gears provides secure attachment and locking of a carried item. Both plungers also contain internal disc magnets which are so arranged in their polarity as to accentuate the magnetic attraction between the plungers. The head plunger is affixed to a planar deck which facilitates the attachment of items such as cell phone cases. When an attachment of this nature is made, a mechanical key, key pin, and other components make the attachment feasible.
