The present invention relates to a method and an insert for holding a mobile phone or the like in a pocket or the like.

Mobile phones have shrunk in size as a result of development. The compact mobile phone is easy to carry almost anywhere. On the other hand, 10 fashion for many people requires clothing that is so tight that it is difficult to hold a mobile phone in, for example, a trouser pocket, despite its small size.

One option for holding a mobile phone is a bag, handbag or special, often waisted, Mobile phone bag. The breast pocket is especially suitable for a mobile phone, especially in men's clothing, but from there the phone tends to fall when bent over.

Known solutions to this problem of falling out of the breast pocket of a mobile phone include closing the pocket with, for example, a flap and a button, and a clothespin-like clip attached to the phone.

In the following, the invention will be described with reference to the accompanying simplified drawings, which show an embodiment of the invention.

So: 5

Figure 1 shows a telephone in a shirt pocket;

Figure 2 shows the same arrangement as seen in side view, the other side of the pocket being "cut away"; and 10

Figure 3 illustrates a means for applying and affixing a sticker to a pocket of a finished shirt.

The so-called velcro label has been used extensively for various purposes, for example, to fasten the edges of a garment to one another. Of course, it has also been used for many other purposes. According to the present invention, it is now used in a novel way.

A new solution is to attach the phone 1 with a textile sticker to the inside of the pocket 2.

,, 20 Of course, it can be done in many ways. It has proved to be advantageous to have a pocket t •, a smoother “female” sticker 3 attached to the side of the house, and a phone 1 «'. coarser sticker for "male" 4.

A suitable sticker placement height has proved to be the upper part of the telephone 1, whereby a natural attachment is obtained, in which the telephone 1 rests substantially on the bottom of the pocket without causing the sticker mounting 3, 4 loads. On the other hand, in terms of width, the advantageous solution is that the female label 3 is almost the entire width of the pocket 2 and is speech. lime 1, on the other hand, has only a roughly square, narrow strip of male label 4. However, the dimensions of the labels 3 and 4 are not very critical. Suitable materials 30 have proved to be for the femur 3, for example, an iron-on, hot-binding textile adhesive, and for the femur 4 to be attached to the telephone 1 a self-adhesive adhesive.

Of course, the female velcro tape 3 can be attached by gluing or stitching to the accessory during manufacture. However, in this case it must be quite high or the accessory must be accompanied by a notice stating which type of phone it is suitable for. Afterwards, for example, on a buyer's own basis, Velcro tapes with a special telephone-type "" assembly kit "can be marketed. However, as will be explained below, the mounting kit may also be of a general type which is formulated specifically for this purpose prior to installation.

The mounting kit illustrated in Fig. 3 is preferably a paper or cardboard patch 5 cut laterally to form a smaller pocket and to which the textile velcro tape 3 is loosely attached at the correct height towards the base of the pocket to be pushed. The fastening of the band 3 can be made, for example, a short distance from its ends, where there is no risk that the fastener will interfere with the attachment of the telephone counter-bar to the middle stages of the band 3. It is advantageous for the paper or board 5 to be so thin that it does not slow down the heat needed to bind the adhesive, since it is easier to keep a heat source, such as an iron, on the surface intended for the outside of the pocket.

-. 20 Note 5 can be printed on the note 5 for which telephone type it is suitable for.

· T! · On the other hand, it is possible to make generic stickers that also contain information on how. ·: Page 5 should be formatted to suit the type of phone you want. For example, note 5.,,; can be so large that it fits into any type of phone and can have a break:. dotted lines that cut the label to fit: '25 for smaller phones. Of course, it is a good idea to print the sticker and phone sticker on the label.

It might be advantageous to market phone stickers in sets that include one phone stick and, for example, 5-12 pocket tape tapes pre-affixed to the 'mount: 30 stickers'.

! Of course the textile stickers will not last forever, but you can scratch off the sticker on the phone and glue a new one on it, and on the other hand you can tear off the 4,114,448 old ribbon inside or if the glue is too secure

The invention is a convenient way of removing a commonly known mistake. It has 5 simple and secure operation. Nor does it prevent the pocket from being used for other purposes in the usual way.

It is to be understood that the invention is not intended to be limited to what has been described above, but that the invention may be formulated within the scope of the appended claims in a number of ways. Thus, for example, a telephone is by no means the only item held in your pocket from time to time. For those who carry a wallet in a breast pocket, this invention provides an excellent aid to prevent the wallet from falling inadvertently. Other objects can also be attached in a convenient pocket-like location in a removable and secure way.
