Abstract: A rechargeable power pack is shaped and dimensioned to be inserted in the battery compartment of an electrical device. The top of the power pack is exactly symmetrical with the battery compartment cover which it replaces. The power pack houses rechargeable power cells, and has a peripheral wall spaced apart from the sides of the battery compartment mounting the battery contact terminal. Flexible prongs project from the peripheral walls to provide a wiping contact with either a spiral spring negative terminal or a stationary positive terminal of the compartment. A top mounted connector allows recharging of the power pack even while in use on the electrical device. Baffles mounted astride each flexible prong avert damage to the prong during insertion of the power pack into the battery compartment.

Abstract: A holster to be used by a painter or to suspend a container from his waist has an oblong panel which is suspended from its midsection to the outer face of the belt by a hook-and-ring assembly so that the upper end of the panel is engaged between the belt and the waist of the wearer. The opposite end of the panel has a strap assembly which adjustably surrounds and supports the container. A pair of looping straps secured to the upper and lower edges of the belt at opposite sides of the panel attachment points are use to slidingly engage the arcuate handle of the container. Due to the swinging attachment of the panel to the belt, the holster can be used to carry the container on either the right or left side. During bending or stooping movements the panel automatically adjusts to maintain a vertical position for the container, the friction of the upper end of the panel against the inner face of the belt and the waist of the wearer limits and dampens the oscillation of the container and panel.

Abstract: An equipment bag is provided particularly designed for use with a video camera and characterized by an internal open-topped pouch generally semi-circularly shaped with a Velcro patch on one side which mates at any desirable position along another Velcro patch mounted on one or both of the internal surfaces of the sidewalls of the body of the bag, the pouch being intended to hold video accessories and ordinarily would lie inside the bag alongside the lens of the camera, which is narrower than the camera body. Other salient features include a specialized four-way opening zippered top, a tripod holder and a comfortable shoulder strap with a built-in shock cord feature.

Abstract: A case is provided specifically tailored to the shape and needs of a video camera and being characterized by a shaped frame of aluminum bands confined between an outer cover and an inner liner, the liner and the cover both being removable from the frame for washing and repair and being made of foam sandwiched between durable Nylon cloth. A specialized anti-slip strap and an accessory bag which is removably attached to the main body of the case are also features of note.
