Abstract: Mounts (10) for securing a tracking device (12) to an article (14) comprise means for receiving and retaining the tracking device (12) and means for attaching the mount (10) to an article (14).

Abstract: Apparatuses (10) for deactivating speakers (12) of wireless tracking devices comprise a body (16) that defines a volume (18) that is configured to at least partially receive the wireless tracking device (14) in a close-fit relationship. The apparatuses (10) further comprise or are configured to receive a piercer (20) that extends into the volume (18) to align with a critical element (22) of a speaker (12) when a wireless tracking device (14) is operatively received in the volume (18). Methods (120) comprise breaking (122) a critical element (22) of a speaker (12) of a wireless tracking device (14).

Abstract: Housings for tracking devices comprise a body and an electrical network. The body defines a device-receiving region and a housing battery region. The device-receiving region is configured to receive the tracking device without a battery cover of the tracking device present. The housing battery region is configured to receive one or more housing batteries. The electrical network is configured to electrically couple the one or more housing batteries with the tracking device when the tracking device is operatively received in the device-receiving region and when the one or more housing batteries are operatively received in the housing battery region.

Abstract: Mounts (10) for securing a tracking device (12) to an article (14) comprise a housing (16) having an internal volume (18) configured to selectively receive and retain the tracking device (12) in the housing (16).

Abstract: Housings (10) for tracking devices (12) comprise a housing body (16) and a fastener (44). The housing body (16) comprises a first body portion (36) and a second body portion (38) that collectively define an internal volume (18) configured to receive and retain a tracking device (12). The fastener (44) operatively couples together the first body portion (36) and the second body portion (38) to retain the tracking device (12) in the internal volume (18).

Abstract: Apparatuses for tracking articles comprise a tracking device (12), a body (14), and an electrical network (22). The body (14) defines a device region (16) in which the tracking device (12) is positioned, and a battery region (18) configured to selectively receive and retain one or more batteries (20). The body (14) comprises a base (56) and one or more covers (58) operatively coupled to the base (56) to permit placement and removal of the one or more batteries (20). The electrical network (22) is operatively positioned within the body (14) and electrically couples the one or more batteries (20) with the tracking device (12).

Abstract: Apparatuses for tracking articles comprise a tracking device (12), a body (14), and an electrical network (22). The body (14) defines a device region (16) in which the tracking device (12) is positioned, and a battery region (18) configured to selectively receive and retain one or more batteries (20). The body (14) comprises a base (56) and one or more covers (58) operatively coupled to the base (56) to permit placement and removal of the one or more batteries (20). The electrical network (22) is operatively positioned within the body (14) and electrically couples the one or more batteries (20) with the tracking device (12).

Abstract: Housings for tracking devices comprise a body and an electrical network. The body defines a device-receiving region that is configured to selectively receive and retain the tracking device in the body, and a housing battery region that is configured to selectively receive and retain one or more housing batteries. The electrical network is operatively positioned within the body and is configured to electrically couple the one or more housing batteries with the tracking device.

Abstract: Tripod mounting plates for mounting a tracking device on a to-be-tracked device comprise a housing and a coupler. The housing is configured to be operatively coupled to a tripod, and the housing defines a recess configured to selectively receive and retain the tracking device. The coupler is operatively coupled to the housing and configured to be operatively coupled to the to-be-tracked device. In some examples, the to-be-tracked device comprises a camera and/or any other suitable device configured to be mounted on the tripod. The tripod mounting plates are configured to facilitate mounting the tracking device on the to-be-tracked device and mounting the to-be-tracked device on the tripod.

Abstract: Housings (10) for tracking devices (12) comprise a housing body (16) and an elongate retainer (58). The housing body (16) has an internal volume (18) configured to selectively receive and retain the tracking device (12). The elongate retainer (58) is rigid and extends from the housing body (16). The elongate retainer (58) and the housing body (16) collectively define a passage (60) configured to receive at least a portion of an article (14).

Abstract: Mounts (10) for securing a device (12) to an article (14) comprise a housing (16) having an internal volume (18) configured to selectively receive and retain the device (12) in the housing (16); and a coupler (20) attached to the housing (16) and configured to be operatively attached to the article (14).
