Portable Computer Carrying and Locking Device

Abstract

Disclosed is a portable computer carrying and securement device, comprising an elastic covering adapted to surround the outer structure of a closed laptop computer or tablet, wherein the covering includes an internal cable attaching to a rotating spool for tightening the cable and covering around the laptop for security purposes. Attached to the upper portion of the covering is a ratcheting and carrying handle, which attaches to the spool for winding the cable therearound and for applying compression onto the outer portion of the computer to prevent tampering or unauthorized access. The handle is further capable of releasing the spool and thus the tension on the cable via a directed outward release motion. This motion is prevented by a locking mechanism and combination privy to only authorized users. The device further incorporates accessories that facilitate recharging of the laptop, locking the assembly to an external structure and an outward-facing display.
