The portable beverage container can be used in conjunction with a laptop computer or other type of planar surface and can be folded up when not in use to minimize its size during storage. The device also includes a means for clamping to a laptop computer and other planar surface that minimizes damage to the laptop computer and enables an end user to quickly clamp and unclamp the device during transit. | 01-15-2009 |
| 20100019122 | MULTIPURPOSE SUPPORT FOR ATTACHMENTS MOUNTABLE TO THE TOW HITCH OF A VEHICLE - The present invention provides a multipurpose support for attachments mountable to the tow hitch of a vehicle. The support comprises a main body adapted to receive an attachment and a coupling means for a quick release coupling of the main body to the tow hitch of a vehicle. | 01-28-2010 |
| 20110017901 | Cane holder - The cane holder is a support device for the upper end of a conventional cane. The cane holder includes a main body having upper and lower surfaces, a front edge and a rear edge, and a pair of opposed side edges. An opening is formed through a central portion of the main body for receiving a portion of the cane. A slot extends between the front edge of the main body and the opening so that the portion of the cane may be inserted and removed from the opening via the slot. Preferably, at least the lower surface of the main body is substantially flat, allowing the lower surface to rest on a to flat surface, such as a tabletop, to support the cane. The rear edge of the main body may be substantially flat for resting against a wall, or may be concave for receiving the leg of a chair. | 01-27-2011 |
| 20110233377 | APPARATUS FOR ATTACHING A DEVICE TO A CIRCULAR STRUCTURE - An apparatus for attaching a device to a circular structure is disclosed. In one embodiment, the apparatus includes a clamp body attached to the outer surface of the circular structure using a strap, which can be attached to the clamp body using a spring that maintains an attachment force to prevent movement of the clamp body over a wide range of temperatures and temperature cycling of the circular structure and the strap. In one embodiment, the device can be installed in the clamp body and coupled to the outer surface of the circular structure using one or more spring washers that maintain an attachment force between the device and the outer surface of the circular structure to prevent detachment of the device from the outer surface of the circular structure over a wide range of temperatures and temperature cycling of the circular structure. | 09-29-2011 |
| 20110240830 | PORTABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICE HOLDERS - In some cases, a portable electronic device holder may include a holding member, a first arm attached to the holding member, a second arm attached to the holding member, a first mounting member attached to the first arm, and a second mounting member attached to the second arm. In other cases, a portable electronic device holder may include a holding member attached to a support member, and one or more mounting member attached to the support member. The one or more mounting members may be for mounting a portable electronic device. The holding member may include a slot and finger grooves for permitting a user to hold the portable electronic device holder. | 10-06-2011 |
