Description

DEVICE
Technical field
The- present invention relates to a device for carrying a portable object at a wrist.
Background
Storage casings for portable electronic apparatuses, for example cellular phones and cameras are previously known, which are intended to be arranged at a belt around a waist of a person with the purpose that it should be easily available and also securely be stored without the risk that the apparatus disappears or being lost. However, a casing at the belt, with or without an apparatus arranged in the casing, limits to certain extent the movability of the person, is ungainly and might feel inconvenient in other way. Yet a problem is also that it is hard to handle, manoeuvre and control the apparatus itself when it remains in the belt. Therefore, for some apparatuses, remote controlling apparatuses has become common, by way of cord or cordless, such as e.g. by Bluetooth or voice control via headset, but this means more parts to keep in order and does not solve the problem of a desired direct handling of the apparatus in itself. Often is a direct handling of the apparatus desired, e.g. in order to reach different menu functions on a cellular phone. In that case the apparatus must be removed from its fixed position in the casing. The apparatus is then however loosely held in the hand and is hard to handle solely with one hand and can easily be dropped, for example when the other hand is occupied by other things. The above mentioned problem does not only concern different apparatuses, but also all kinds of portable objects that a person wish to carry in a holder arranged to the body, such as a wallet.
By a storage casing that is arranged at a wrist of a user, inter alia the movability of the user increases. By US-A-4, 913, 326 it is previously known a wrist casing for a portable radio or the similar, where a storage casing for the radio is fixedly arranged on the outside of a wrist band. However, the apparatus have to be removed from the wrist casing if the apparatus should be handled when placed in one hand for use.
Description of the invention
One object with the present invention is to provide a device for a portable object that eliminates the drawbacks that are associated with devices according to the state of the art. Yet an object is to provide a device for an object that can be manoeuvred and controlled by direct contact with the object by one hand simultaneously as it is carried by the apparatus arranged at a wrist. Further, it is an object to provide a device that is small, smooth, and that can be manufactured to a low cost.
This object is achieved by a device for carrying of a portable object at a wrist, according to the present invention, as defined in claim 1, which comprises a wrist band that is arranged at the wrist, a holder in which said apparatus or object is intended to be arranged, where the holder is rotatably arranged to the wrist band in a joint, whereby the holder can be rotated from a folded position arranged in connection against the wrist band to a pulled- out position at a distance from the wrist band and in the longitudinal direction of the wrist such that the object is placed in the hand when the wrist band is arranged at the wrist. 03 001664

One advantage by this solution according to the present invention is that the portable object even during direct handling is arranged in the device. When the object should be used, it can easily be pulled-out in the palm of the hand. By the design of the device it then can be possible to operate the object, e.g. a cellular phone, only by the fingers in the hand, in which it is pulled-out into. When the object no longer shall be used, it is folded back to the folded position storage position along the wrist.
The device is suitably intended for apparatuses, such as electronic apparatuses, and other portable objects that can be handled in one hand such as a wallet, a spray bottle, a tool, a weapon, or the similar. A portable object that the device is suitable for can be an electronic apparatus such as a cellular phone, a camera, a dictaphone, a MP3-player, a radio, etc.
Additional advantages and features according to embodiments of the invention is evident from the claims, and also in the following from the description of examples of performance.
Description of drawings
The present invention shall now be described in more detail in embodiments, with reference to the attached drawings, without restricting the invention thereto, where, fig. IA shows an outline diagram of a device •according to the present invention, applied at a wrist of a user and where a holder for an apparatus, here a cellular phone, is in a pulled-out position, fig. IB shows schematically the device according to fig. IA applied at the wrist and where, the holder is in a folded, storage position, fig. 1C shows the device according to fig. 1A-B when it is not applied to the wrist and with the holder in pulled-out position, and fig. ID shows the device according to fig. 1A-C when it is not applied at the wrist and with the holder in a folded position.
Detailed description of embodiments
An outline diagram of a device 2 according to present invention is shown in fig. 1A-D, applied at a wrist 4 on a user and where a holder 6 with an object 8, here a cellular phone, can be pulled-out in the palm 10 of the hand of the user as is shown in fig. IA, whereby the apparatus 8 is ready to be used by the user. The device 2 comprises a wrist band 12 that is arranged at the wrist 4.
As evident from fig. 1C-D the wrist band 12 can be shaped of an elongated band, in transverse direction in relation to the arm 13 of the user, having attachment means 14
(shown with phantom lines on the left part of the wrist band), e.g. Velcro band, that forms a circular surrounding at the wrist when it is applied around the wrist. Further, the device 2 comprises a holder 6 in which said object 8 is intended to be arranged. The holder 6 comprises suitably openings, i.e. is partly opened, whereby functions of the object, such as buttons on the cellular phone, are accessible when the object is carried by the holder 6 and at least when the holder is in a pulled-out position (fig. IA and 1C) . The openings can also be covered by a window, in the shape of a transparent plastic, whereby the functions thus are visible and accessible through the window. The holder can comprise a closed back 16, a supporting edge 18 arranged to the back that carries one end of the object, and a holding band 20 arranged to the back 16 that is attached around the object 8 whereby it securely can be fixed in the holder 6. The holder 6 is rotatably R arranged to the wrist band 12 in a joint 22. Rotation R occurs at least such that the holder rotates from a folded position arranged in connection against the wrist band (fig. IB) to a pulled-out position (fig. IA) at a distance from the wrist band 12 and in the longitudinal direction of the wrist when the wrist band is arranged at the wrist 4. Thus, the holder can be rotated R to location in the palm 10 of the hand. The joint 22 can be arranged such that a certain rotation R is admitted even in a transverse direction T (see fig. 1C) , i.e. moved slightly parallel along the palm 10 of the hand. The joint may comprise a shaft 24 arranged to a short side 26 of the holder 6. The joint 22 is arranged by a loop 28 arranged at the short side 30 of the wrist band. An alternative joint between the holder and the wrist band may comprise a resilient body (not shown) , for example a thin, strip- formed piece of material of metal or plastic. The resilient body may in that respect be bent such that it is prestressly arranged to set the holder in connection against the wrist band in the folded position (see fig. IB and ID) . When the holder with the object is desired in the pulled-out position (fig. IA and 1C) in the palm 10 of the hand, a force must then affect the holder 6 to leave its folded stored position in connection against the wrist band 12, e.g. by a sudden pendulous motion of the arm 13 at which the device 2 is carried. Further, the holder 6 and the wrist band 12 comprises locking means 32 which locks the holder in connection against the wrist band in the folded position. Locking means 32 can be Velcro band, magnets, push buttons or the similar. Suitably the locking means 32 comprises magnets, which is advantageous since it is possible to easily loosen the holder from the waist band, e.g. by a sudden pendulous motion of the arm 13 as described above. A locking body 34 can be arranged at a short side 36 of the waist band 12, suitably at the opposite side in relation to the short side of said loop 28, and a corresponding locking body 38 can be arranged at the back 16 of the holder 6.
Even though the device according to fig. 1A-D shows the carrying of a cellular phone, it is realized that the device can be used for carrying various different portable apparatuses or objects such as e.g. a spray bottle, a weapon (gun, knife, etc.), a camera, or the similar.
