Abstract
An elongate article holder with a flexible band, along with two terminal ends that may be removably secured to each other, is used to wrap around an elongate article, such as a cable, or coils of the elongate article. In various exemplary embodiments, removable coupling of the two terminal ends may be provided by magnet(s). Further, the flexible non-magnetic band may have an integral closed loop for removably attaching to the elongate article, operating by passing a portion of the elongate article through a formed orifice that is formed from the integral closed loop.
Claims17
A magnetic cable organizer for organizing at least one cable;
- wherein the magnetic cable organizer comprises:
- a flexible elongate band, wherein the flexible elongate band comprises:
- an integral closed loop for attaching the magnetic cable organizer to the at least one cable by a portion of the at least one cable passing through an orifice formed between the integral closed loop and a portion of the flexible elongate band;
- two terminal ends disposed opposite of each other with the flexible elongate band disposed between the two terminal ends, with each terminal end comprising a mating surface such that are at least two mating surfaces;
- wherein one of the two mating surfaces comprises at least one magnet and the other mating surface comprises at least one magnetically attractable material;
- wherein when the two mating surfaces are removably brought together, the flexible elongate band bends and forms a formed receiving cavity;
- wherein the formed receiving cavity circumscribes at least one different portion of the at least one cable or a portion of a different cable;
- and
- wherein the flexible elongate band, including the integral closed loop, and the two terminals ends are all integral with respect each other;
- wherein each terminal end of the two terminals ends is located at an opposing end of the flexible elongate band.

A magnetic cable organizer with slits for organizing at least one cable;
- wherein the magnetic cable organizer with slits comprises:
- a flexible elastic elongate band, wherein the flexible elastic elongate band comprises:
- an integral closed loop for attaching the magnetic cable organizer with slits to the at least one cable by a portion of the at least one cable passing through an orifice formed between the integral closed loop and a portion of the flexible elastic elongate band;
- wherein the integral closed loop is formed from the flexible elastic elongate band by two substantially parallel slits located in the flexible elastic elongate band, wherein each slit is a through slit that has a depth equal to a band thickness, wherein the band thickness is a thickness of the flexible elastic elongate band;
- and wherein each slit runs in a direction substantially parallel with a longitudinal length of the flexible elastic elongate band;
- two terminal ends disposed opposite of each other with the flexible elastic elongate band disposed between the two terminal ends, with each terminal end comprising a mating surface such that are at least two mating surfaces;
- wherein one of the two mating surfaces comprises at least one magnet and the other mating surface comprises at least one magnetically attractable material;
- wherein when the two mating surfaces are removably brought together, the flexible elastic elongate band bends and forms a formed receiving cavity;
- wherein the formed receiving cavity circumscribes at least one different portion of the at least one cable or a portion of a different cable;
- and
- wherein the flexible elastic elongate band, including the integral closed loop, and the two terminals ends are all integral with respect each other;
- wherein each terminal end of the two terminals ends is located at an opposing end of the flexible elastic elongate band.
