A pad 12 may be attached to the housing and the other two pads 14 may be attached to the flaps 13 for engaging with and for protecting the portable or mobile phone 19 from being damaged or scratched or scrubbed by the flaps 13 or the other objects.
The seat 3 includes an orifice 15 formed therein, and includes one or more prongs 31 extended therefrom, such as extended inward of the space 30 of the housing 2 for plugging into the portable or mobile phone 19 (FIGS. 3-71. A circuit board 5 is secured in the housing 2 or in the cover 4, and includes a light device 22, such as a light bulb 22 or the like attached thereto and engaged in the orifice 15 of the seat 3 for generating a signal light or a flash light, and for allowing the light to be seen through the orifice 15 of the seat 3. A speaker 8 or the like is coupled to the circuit board 5 and is engaged in an opening 17 of the cover 4, for generating sounds or sound waves or the - 4 like, and for allowing the sound waves to be heard through the opening 17 of the cover 4.
A battery 6 may be engaged into the housing 2 via a lower or a bottom channel 41 of the cover 4, and may E!e coupled to the circuit board 5 with one or more conductors 7 for energizing the light device 22, the speaker 8, and the other electric facilities. A cap 10 may be secured to the cover 4 with fasteners 11 for enclosing the cover 4 and for retaining the battery 6 within the cover 4. A socket 23 is secured to the circuit board 5 for coupling to the socket 20 of the vehicle (FIG 7) with a cable and a plug 25, and for allowing the battery 6 and/or the portable or mobile phone 19 to be charged or energized by the power or the battery of the vehicle. The plug 25 may include a light device 21 that may be energized for indicating that the plug 25 is electrically coupled to the socket 20 of the vehicle.
The circuit board 5 includes a switch 16 attached thereto or provided therein and may be used to control that the battery 6 andJor the portable or mobile phone l9 to be charged and/or energized by the power or the battery of the vehicle. The switch 16 is partially extended outward of an aperture 43 of the cover 4, for allowing the switch 16 to be actuated or operated by the users. The switch 16 may also be used to control that the portable or mobile phone l9 be energized or - s - charged by the battery G when the circuit board 5 has not been electrically coupled to the battery or the power of the vehicle via the socket 90 of the vehicle.
4 stay 44 may be rotatahly or pivotally secured to the coffer I, with a pivot Hale 46, and may lo rotated relative to the cover 4 to a position that is perpendicular to the cover 4 (FIGS. 3' 51, and the other position that is parallel to or engaged with the cover 4. A clip 18 may be attached to the stay 44 (FIG.
3), or directly attached to the cover (FIG. 4) for attaching or securing onto the users, such as the waist belt of the users.
