20090139061 | SUPPORT CLAMP FOR MEDICAL LINE - A support device or clamp connects to a soft, flexible tube, such as a medical line, to hold the tube in an open condition. The device includes a flexible body with interengaging structure that biases the body into a desired shape when in a closed position or condition. The desired shape generally matches the outer shape of the medical line. An adhesive is disposed on the support device so as to contact the secured portion of the medical line to inhibit the walls of the line from collapsing or creasing. The support device may include base structure that has an adhesive lower surface for attaching the support device to a patient's skin. | 06-04-2009 |
20100139048 | Hand-Mounted Accessory Carrier System and Method - A hand-mounted carrier is provided comprising a panel member overlaying at least a portion of the back of the hand. The carrier includes an upper surface facing away from the hand and a lower surface facing toward the hand. The upper surface defines a mounting area thereon for securing at least one accessory. At least one loop member is attached to the panel member for at least partially wrapping around at least one finger of the hand to partially anchor a portion of the panel member to the hand. At least one strap is attached to the panel member for at least partially wrapping around the wrist of the hand to anchor at least a portion of the panel member to the hand. | 06-10-2010 |
20120246879 | Retainer Apparatus - A retainer apparatus for removably engaging a tablet computer to a user's leg, the retainer apparatus includes a pair of opposed clips each being removably engagable to an outer periphery of the tablet, via a detachable extension member that is disposed to span between the opposing pair of clips resulting in the clips being compressed as against the tablet outer periphery at an angle that creates a moment that in effect rotates each clip to rotatably bind the clip to the tablet outer periphery for improved frictional contact between the clip and the tablet outer periphery. Also included in the retainer apparatus is a disconnectable band element that is removably attached to the extension member and is adapted to extend around and removably engage the user's leg. | 10-04-2012 |
20130318748 | FASTENING DEVICE TO BE WORN ON AN ARM - A fastening device, and corresponding methods of manufacture and use, are disclosed as the fastening device may be worn on an arm. In an example, the fastening device includes a band portion having an opening formed in the band portion. The opening is sized to slide onto a watchband. The fastening device may also include an edge portion of the band portion. A least one opening is provided with the edge portion for attaching a bracelet or other jewelry. As such, the bracelet or other jewelry is held next to the watchband when worn on the arm so that the bracelet or other jewelry does not slide up and down the arm. | 12-05-2013 |
20140047674 | SUPPORT ASSEMBLY AND METHOD FOR SUPPORTING A RECREATIONAL PRODUCT - An apparatus is disclosed to support a portion of the weight of a recreational product while riding on a lift. The apparatus includes a first element attachable to a recreational product user, and a second element fixedly supported relative to the recreational product. The first element includes a tether that can be secured to a recreational product user's limb at the first end of the tether; and a coupling fitting that is attached at or near the second end of the tether. The second element is fixed on the recreational product and includes a platform and a hook supported by the platform. A portion of the platform and the coupling fitting are configured to be magnetically attracted to each other. The hook is configured to engage the coupling fitting. When the hook and coupling fitting are fully engaged the platform and coupling fitting are spaced apart from each other. | 02-20-2014 |
20140101893 | Coupling Assembly for Coupling a Wristworn Device to a Strap - A sleeve for use in an assembly for coupling a wristworn device to a first end of a strap. The sleeve has a first end dimensioned to be received in the recess in the inner face of the first lug of a wristworn device, an inner cavity dimensioned to receive therein the first end of a conventional spring bar, and a retractor coupled to the sleeve for urging the first end of the spring bar towards the second end of the spring bar. The second end of the spring bar is coupled to the second lug, the spring bar is coupled to the strap, the first end of the spring bar is positioned in the inner cavity of the sleeve and the first end of the sleeve is coupled to the first lug. A removable retractor for use with a spring bar, which allows for the use of a plurality of spring bars and therefore, lends itself to widespread use and retrofitting of an assembly that couples a strap to a wristworn device, is also provided. | 04-17-2014 |
20140101894 | FASTENING DEVICE FOR JEWELRY - A fastening device is disclosed as it may be used for jewelry (e.g., on a watch band). An example fastening device has a decorative top portion. A first arm extends from a first end of the decorative top portion, the first arm having a notch formed on an interior of a free end of the decorative top portion. A second arm extends from a second end of the decorative top portion. A bottom portion has a shape that substantially follows a shape of the decorative top portion. The bottom portion pivotally connects to the second arm. The bottom portion is formed to engage the notch of the first arm in a closed position. | 04-17-2014 |
20140208546 | REVERSIBLE PIN PLATE FOR FINE WRIST STRAP ADJUSTMENT - A device is disclosed for wearing on a wrist or other body part including a central piece held on the body part by a pair of straps. A first strap includes fastening holes and the second strap includes a pin plate having pins for mating within the fastening holes in the first strap to affix the device to the body part. The pins are off-center with respect to a lengthwise centerline dividing a width of the pin plate in half. The pin plate may be affixed to the second strap into different orientations, to thereby allow adjustment of a fit of the device to the body part with finer granularity than provided by the pitch of the fastening holes in the first strap. | 07-31-2014 |
20160037879 | MAGNETIC BUCKLE - A clasp for securing a first strap with a second strap includes a first clasp portion having a first frame member and a first set of magnets movable from a first to a second position, the first clasp portion adapted to be attached with the first strap; and a second clasp portion adapted to selectively connect with the first clasp portion, the second frame clasp portion having second frame member and a second set of magnets positioned in a fixed location within the second clasp portion, the second set of magnets positioned adjacent the first set of magnets when the second clasp portion is connected with the first clasp portion, the second clasp portion adapted to be attached with the second strap. When the first and second set of magnets create an attractive magnetic force therebetween in the first position and a repulsive magnetic force therebetween in the second position. | 02-11-2016 |
