Abstract
A retaining assembly to attach one or more mobile devices to a mobile object. The retaining assembly may include a mounting plate that attaches to the mobile object by way of a mounting bracket or scorecard clip-on. The mounting bracket provides dovetails for selecting engaging the mounting plate in different orientations. The mounting plate facilitates various magnetized components to removably attach to the mobile device. If the mobile device has a third-party extensible grip, a retaining ring may be employed to attach the mobile device or the extensible grip modified to one of the various magnetized components.
Claims5
A retaining assembly for one or more mobile devices fitted with an extensible grip, comprising:
- a mounting plate providing at least one ferromagnetic portion or a retaining ring along an upper surface, wherein the retaining ring is dimensioned to engage a portion of a periphery of the extensible grip, and wherein each ferromagnetic portion is adapted to magnetically connect to the extensible grip through one of a plurality of magnetized components;
- a mounting bracket including:
- a tapered dovetail;
- the mounting plate having two tapered dovetail grooves along a lower surface thereof;
- and
- each tapered dovetail groove having a transverse orientation relative to each other and wherein each tapered dovetail groove is configured to receive the tapered dovetail.
