Abstract
There is disclosed a substantially integrated, concealed, and discreet device for extending and holding a mobile recording device. A user of this holder device can unlock the mechanism, pull an extension arm segment which will pull past the body of the recording device so as to form a handle and extension and thereby allow the user to capture audio, video, and other images at a distance greater than if holding the mobile recording device directly in his or her hand. Thus an extensible mobile recording device holder is provided that allows for a compact and concealable mechanism and efficient deployment so that users can quickly and adequately capture images from more varied and greater perspectives.
Claims20
A device for extending and handling portable recording devices comprising:
- a. a recording device covering (101) with at least one pivot point;
- b. at least two segment arms (201, 202);
- c. at least one coupler connecting said at least two segment arms and
- wherein said at least two segment arms (201, and 202) are configured for substantial extension beyond the perimeter of said recording device covering (101) when the segment arms are rotated about said at least one coupler.
A device for extending and handling portable recording devices comprising:
- a. a recording device covering (10) with at least one pivot point;
- b. at least two segment arms (705, 707);
- c. at least one coupler (716) connecting said at least two segment arms and wherein said at least two segment arms (705, 707) are configured for substantial extension beyond the perimeter of said recording device covering (10) when the segment arms are rotated about said at least one coupler;
- d) at least one handle (720) coupled to at least one of said at least two segment arms (705, 707);
- d) at least one lock for locking the at least two segment arms (705, 707) in place, wherein said lock comprises at least one line (702, 712) which extends along said at least two segment arms (705, 707) wherein when said handle (720) is rotated, it makes said line taught, thereby locking said at least two segment arms (705, 707) in place along an axis (731)
