Abstract: A sliding privacy door and lockset system for doors of the types generally known as “barn doors” and/or “pocket doors”, due to these doors being slidably mounted on a rail or rails positioned above a doorway or otherwise in or near a doorway. The present invention includes a lockset comprising a strike plate mounted to a door, and a lockset sub-assembly mounted to a door jamb. The lockset sub-assembly includes an actuating arm connected axially to a rotatable extension of a thumb turn. During operation, the distal end of the actuating arm rotates from an unlocked position to a locked position, that is, the distal end of the actuating arm rests within a slot in the strike plate. The strike plate may include a bump to limit the actuating arm's rotation, and a flush pull handle comprising an opening configured to provide a user's hand(s) with a place to grip.

Abstract: Portable electronic devices comprise a housing having one or more straps attached thereto. The straps include battery cells disposed therein that are operatively connected to the housing. The straps comprise a construction material accommodating a number of the battery cells therein, wherein the battery cells are separated from one another to enable bending of the strap to facilitate wearing the device. The battery cells are operatively connected together in the strap by circuits, cables, or conduits. The straps include an attachment element configured to facilitate mechanically connecting the strap to the housing, which attachment element may also facilitate electrical connection with the housing. The straps may be releasibly attached to the housing to permit removal for recharging, or for replacement with charged straps. The straps may also include one or more accessories otherwise disposed in the housing for further reducing device packaging size.
