Patent number: 9099854Abstract: An electrical device cover assembly configured for mounting over an electrical device is described. The electrical device cover assembly comprises a base comprising an opening large enough to receive an electrical device. A lid comprising a lid face, a lid ring, and an expansion section between the lid face and the lid ring, the lid coupled to the base and comprising an inside surface and an expansion section, the expansion section expandable from a first depth to a second depth at least twice as deep as the first depth is provided. An expansion arm moveable between a first collapsed position when the expansion section is at its first depth and an second expanded position when the expansion section is at its second depth, wherein in the second position the expansion arm is in contact with and supports the lid at its second depth is also provided.Type: GrantFiled: January 8, 2015Date of Patent: August 4, 2015Assignee: HUBBELL INCORPORATEDInventors: Marcus J.

Patent number: 8488306Abstract: A secondary computing device display system includes a removable attachment mechanism operable to removably attach a secondary computing device display to a primary computing device display. The removable attachment mechanism comprises a first attachment member, operable to slideably attach to the secondary computing device display, and a second attachment member, comprising a clamping trench and a clamp locking lever. The second attachment member is operable to removably clamp the primary computing device display by inserting a clamping ridge of the primary computing device display in the clamping trench and engaging a notched surface of the clamping ridge with the clamp locking lever. The first and second attachment member are frictionally rotatable with respect to each other along a first axis and a second axis.Type: GrantFiled: November 2, 2010Date of Patent: July 16, 2013Assignee: Sideline, Inc.Inventors: Benjamin L.

Patent number: 7889481Abstract: A secondary computing device display system includes a removable attachment mechanism operable to removably attach a secondary computing device display to a primary computing device display. The removable attachment mechanism comprises a first attachment member, operable to lockably attach to the secondary computing device display, and a second attachment member, comprising a first clamping portion and a second clamping portion. The first and second clamping portions are operable to removably clamp the primary computing device display within a gap defined between the first and second clamping portions. The first and second attachment member are frictionally rotatable with respect to each other along a first axis and a second axis. A surface of the primary computing device display is adapted to engage the second attachment member and utilize friction to reduce the amount of pressure sufficient to removably clamp.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2008Date of Patent: February 15, 2011Assignee: Sideline, Inc.Inventors: Benjamin L. Mickey, John H. Takamura, Jr., Dosun Shin, Mark S. Chichester, David C. Ramsperger, Dane A. Wesenberg, Brad Fulghum, Miguel Chapa
