Abstract
A universal mobile device holster is disclosed, the holster including a shell having a front side and a back side, which together define a cavity with an opening adapted to receive a mobile device. The holster also includes at least one forward-urging spring attached within the cavity, and adapted for applying forward force for aligning and for applying forward gripping pressure on a mobile device held within the cavity for ensuring that the mobile device is removably secure within the holster.
Description
- This application claims priority of co-pending U.S. patent application Ser. No. 12/493,453 filed Jun. 26, 2009, and entitled “Mobile Device Holster”, which claims priority from Provisional Patent Application Ser. Number 61/133,380 filed Jun. 27, 2008, and entitled “ Mobile Device Quick Draw Holster”, the entirety of each patent application being incorporated herein by reference.
- This invention relates generally to mobile devices, and more particularly to mobile device accessories.
- Mobile devices such as cellular mobile devices, PDA's, GPS's, and the like, have provided great convenience in communications, personal organization, and computing, and are now commonplace and widely popular. The added convenience provided by such mobile devices has led to many people becoming dependent upon the devices. Such dependence has placed an obligation on many mobile device users to keep the device with them, within earshot, nearby, and/or on their person, at all times. There are many ways to store the devices on or near the user, such as placing them in pockets, pocket books, purses, etc. Many of these storage methods however, can cause damage due to such things as other articles coming in contact with them, or by being crushed. Damage can also occur if the device unintentionally falls or slips out of its storage location.
- Holsters have been devised to store mobile devices to prevent such damage. These holsters, however, are custom-designed for one particular type of mobile device, thereby making them unsuitable for use with devices other than the device for which the holster was designed.
- A universal mobile device holster is disclosed which can be used with mobile devices of a variety of shapes and sizes, nevertheless securely holding the mobile device, while also allowing quick and efficient removal of the mobile device from the holster.
- A general aspect of the invention is a universal mobile device holster. The holster includes: an open shell having a front side and a back side, which together define a cavity with an opening adapted to receive a mobile device; and at least one forward-urging positioning device disposed within the cavity, the at least one forward-urging positioning device being adapted to urge the mobile device forward against the front side so as to securely and removably hold the mobile device within the open shell.
- In some embodiments, the at least one forward-urging positioning device includes a curved spring. In further embodiments, the curved spring is attached to the back side of the open shell.
- In some embodiments, an inner surface of the cavity opposite to the forward-urging positioning device provides friction when contacted by the mobile device, thereby resisting vertical movement of the mobile device so as to retain the device in the holster unless the mobile device is intentionally removed from the holster.
- In some embodiments, the back side is substantially flat, and the front side is substantially curved.
- In some embodiments, the cavity is about 30 to 300 percent larger in volume than the mobile device to be inserted.
- In some embodiments, the universal mobile device holder further includes at least one attachment mechanism for attaching the open shell to a garment.
- In some embodiments, the at least one attachment mechanism includes an extended clip disposed along the top of the back side of the open shell.
- In some embodiments, the at least one attachment mechanism includes at least one belt loop attached to the back side of the open shell.
- In some embodiments, the at least one attachment mechanism includes hook and loop material attached to the back side of the open shell.
- In some embodiments, the at least one attachment mechanism includes non-slip material attached to the back side of the open shell.
- In some embodiments, the at least one attachment mechanism includes a pin and pin receiver attached to the back side of the open shell.
- In some embodiments, the at least one attachment mechanism includes a plurality of permanent magnets attached to the back side of the open shell.
- Another general aspect of the invention is a universal mobile device holster including: an open shell having a front side, and a back side, which together define a cavity with an opening adapted to receive a mobile device; at least one forward-urging positioning device disposed within the cavity, the at least one forward-urging positioning device being adapted to urge the mobile device forward against the front side so as to securely and removably hold the mobile device within the open shell; and an attachment mechanism disposed on the back side of the open shell capable of attaching the open shell to a garment.
