Abstract

Multifunctional hanging chain for smartphones, which can be converted into a selfie stick, as soon as the clamping device is actuated, characterized in that with the help of the strap (4), the grip segments (2), the stick elements (1) and the receptacle (3) for the smartphone can be chained together and form a flexible chain.

Description

A selfie stick of the conventional design usually consists of a handle, a telescopic rod and a holder on which the smartphone is mounted. If necessary, a tripod is integrated in the handle of the selfie stick ( EP 3 680 540 A1 ). By pulling out the telescopic pole, you have the opportunity to use the release button to take pictures of yourself, with an enlarged background or with groups of people.

(Wikipedia "Selfie-Stick")

As soon as the selfie stick is no longer needed, the smartphone must be dismantled and the stick stowed away in the retracted state. This not only costs time and is expensive, it may even take up storage space (e.g. in rucksacks or shoulder bags).

This is remedied by the invention specified in claim 1, which is intended to solve the problem of dismantling and stowing the selfie stick.

This problem is solved with the features listed in claim 1.

With the invention it is achieved that the selfie stick including the smartphone can be worn as a necklace when not in use. The smartphone remains continuously mounted in the holder of the device, which also serves as a protective cover. If necessary, the chain can be converted into a selfie stick using the tensioning device, thus saving you the need to dismantle / assemble and stow the device.

An advantageous embodiment of the invention is shown in claim 3. The clamping device enables a quick and uncomplicated conversion of the device.

• das Umhängekette mit betätigter Spannvorrichtung,
• die betätigte Spannvorrichtung,
• die Aufnahme für das Smartphone bei betätigter Spannvorrichtung.

Based on until the implementation of the invention is explained. Show it:

• the neck chain with unactuated tensioning device,
• the neck chain with actuated tensioning device,
• the actuated clamping device,
• the holder for the smartphone when the clamping device is activated.

In the first figure you can see the rod elements (1) of which one of them is attached to the eight handle segments (2) adjoins, with a wireless shutter release button (6) is provided. There is also the recording (3) shown for the smartphone, which also functions as a protective cover. The individual components have bores that extend from the tape (4) are run through and thus connect the components with each other. A non-slip cord stopper is used to close the device (5) .

The stiffened device can be seen in the second illustration. She sits down from the handle (8th) together, the bar elements (1) , which now have two solid rods running parallel to each other (7) make up and take up (3) .

The third figure represents the handle (8th) there. First, by pulling the tape tight (4) provided a bias. The tape is fixed (4) by means of the cord stopper (5) , which is attached to the lower end of the handle segments (2) is pushed. Then the bottom four, of the eight handle segments (2) folded down and thus form the handle (8th) and keep the tape (4) generates the necessary tension for the stiffening of the entire device. In order to generate a higher clamping force, the handle segments have (2) in contrast to the bar elements (1) , a larger cross-section.

The fourth figure represents the recording (3) when the clamping device is activated. The angled support surface of the recording (3) , presses against the bearing surfaces of the two rod elements (1) , at the upper end of the device and ensures that the smartphone is tilted towards the user after the clamping device has been operated.
