Abstract

A mobile media bracket assembly having a mounting bracket for releasable attachment to an existing shopping cart handle. The bracket has a cradle assembly to receive the mobile device and offers a releasable pair of struts that utilize an adjustable nut and lock-arm tensioner lever to secure it to the shopping cart handle.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION 7 , = :
The present invention relates to a handlebar mounting accessories brackets for the frame tube of a bicycle; frame member attachment and, more particularly, to the minimum of different parts which facilitate assembly thereof. In this case the cage assembly is typically igedior water bottles. In our invention we have substituted the water bottle cage by a mounting plate to facilitate the attachment of a user's mobile device to the bracket and therefore to the shopping cart handle, and will be apparent from the following description and drawings.
This shopping cart handle mobile device mounting bracketwill typically have a rigid assembly for mounting system allowing a mobile device to be received in a holding cradle and attach to a shopping cart handle with the mounting struts. The bracket assembly will comprise of releasable interference fit pair of parallel, longitudinally-extending struts, each of said struts having an offset portion extending outwardly from said bracket; a first flexible strut member shaped to extend partially about said frame tube and having a unitary recesses, open to said frame tube, shaped to receive said struts therein; a second flexible strut member shaped to extend partially about said frame tube and oriented in opposing relation to said first strap member to receive said frame tube there between and to lie on opposite sides thereof; and an adjustable locking system. The said struts members are clamped against said frame tube and said struts are clamped by said first strap member against said frame tube. The bracket attachment and securing struts will typically made of a resilient material such as a plastic or metal to secure firmly to the frame tube by a barrel nut and threaded rod and a plastic or metal lock-lever bar. The strut will envelope the tube member and will create a substantial connection between the bracket and the tube member BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
FIG. 1 is a side elevation of the mobile device mounting bracket assembly are attached to an assembly of the present invention, mounted on a section frame tube by threaded rod nut an lock-bar lever screws which pass through the struts encompassing the shopping cart tube member.
FIG. 2 is an end elevation taken at showing the strut lock-bar lever and show the flexibility of placement on the tube member to affix at a single, predetermined or selected location on the frame.
Accordingly, it is desirable in some applications to would be the positioned at either end or centered on the handle based on consumer's needs. Once positioned on the handle the user simply utilizes the lock-bar to securely fasten at the desired location Fig 3. Shows the opposite end view detailing the tensioning barrel nut, the second attaching strut.
