Appendage-mounted display apparatus

摘要

An appendage-mounted display apparatus comprising a device mount for attaching electronic devices and a cuff assembly that provides a uniform tension fit around a user's appendage. The cuff assembly comprises a multi-layer blend of soft and rigid components and a ratcheting lacing or strap system to achieve a customizable, non-slip fit that may be quickly and easily adjusted with one hand. The device mount may be adapted to accommodate a variety of electronic devices including mobile phones, smartphones, and other communication devices, portable computers, maps, audio and music devices, global positioning system devices, and other interactive electronic devices and displays, as well as paper maps, checklists, and other static forms of guidance and instruction. In addition, the device mount may include a rail system for attaching a flashlight and/or other tools.

主权项

1. An appendage-mounted display apparatus for mounting on a user's appendage, the appendage-mounted display apparatus comprising:
an upper panel including a first open end and a second open end comprising an upper cage, a base plate, upper structural mesh-coated foam, and an upper grip; a lower panel comprising a lower cage, lower structural mesh-coated foam, a lower grip, and a closed-loop laced tensioning system coupled to a lower panel exterior surface, wherein the lower panel is configured to be nested within the first open end and the second open end of the upper panel, the closed-loop laced tensioning system being configured to pull the upper panel and the lower panel substantially radially inward toward the user's appendage such that a uniform level of compressive force about the user's appendage is achieved; and a device mount, wherein the device mount is coupled to an upper panel exterior surface, the device mount being further coupled to the base plate.
