Abstract
An apparatus for mounting an electronic device includes a case for the electronic device; an attachment portion, formed on the case, having a groove; and a mount constructed to be attachable to a bicycle or a vehicle. The mount includes a locking cap having a protrusion; a rotatable cap having a tab groove wherein the rotatable cap is rotatable with respect to the locking cap; a biased switch having a tab wherein the tab is biased toward the rotatable cap. Here, the tab groove includes an opening and a groove is broadly defined to include an opening. The mount is attachable to the attachment portion by inserting the protrusion of the locking cap into the groove of the attachment portion and rotating the attachment portion or the locking cap with respect to each other.
Claims29
An apparatus for mounting an electronic device, comprising:
- a case 200 for the electronic device;
- an attachment portion 10, formed on the case 200 or fixedly attached to the case 200, having a groove 14;
- and
- a mount 20 constructed to be removably attachable to a vehicle or a bicycle, wherein the mount 20 comprises:
- a locking cap 30 having a protrusion 32;
- a rotatable cap 40 having a tab groove 45 wherein the rotatable cap 40 is rotatable with respect to the locking cap 30;
- and
- a biased switch 50 comprising a first tab 55 wherein the first tab 55 is biased towards the rotatable cap 40,
- wherein the mount 20 is removably attachable to the attachment portion 10 by inserting the protrusion 32 of the locking cap 30 into the groove 14 of the attachment portion 10 and rotating the attachment portion 10 or the locking cap 30 with respect to each other.
An apparatus 100 for mounting an electronic device, comprising:
- an attachment portion 10, attachable to the electronic device, having a groove 14;
- and
- a mount 20 constructed to be removably attachable to a vehicle or a bicycle,
- wherein the mount 20 comprises:
- a locking cap 30 having a protrusion 32;
- a rotatable cap 40 having a tab groove 45 wherein the rotatable cap 40 is rotatable with respect to the locking cap 30;
- and
- a biased switch 50 comprising a first tab 55 wherein the first tab 55 is biased toward the rotatable cap 40, wherein the mount 20 is removably attachable to the attachment portion 10 by inserting the protrusion 32 of the locking cap 30 into the groove 14 of the attachment portion 10 and rotating the attachment portion 10 or the locking cap 30 with respect to each other,
- wherein while rotating the attachment portion 10 or the locking cap 30 with respect to each other, the rotatable cap 40 rotates together with the attachment portion 10 with respect to the locking cap 30, thereby allowing the first tab 55 of the biased switch 50 to be released into the tab groove 45 of the rotatable cap 40 in order to prevent further rotation of the rotatable cap 40 and prevent removal of the locking cap 30 from the attachment portion 10.
A mount 20 for use along with an attachment portion 10 to form an apparatus 100 for mounting an electronic device wherein the attachment portion 10 is attachable to the electronic device and has a groove 14 and the mount 20 is constructed to removably attachable to a vehicle or a bicycle, the mount 20 comprising:
- a locking cap 30 having a protrusion 32;
- a rotatable cap 40 having a tab groove 45 wherein the rotatable cap 40 is rotatable with respect to the locking cap 30;
- and
- a biased switch 50 comprising a first tab 55 wherein the first tab 55 is biased toward the rotatable cap 40, wherein the mount 20 is removably attachable to the attachment portion 10 by inserting the protrusion 32 of the locking cap 30 into the groove 14 of the attachment portion 10 and rotating the attachment portion 10 or the locking cap 30 with respect to each other,
- wherein while rotating the attachment portion 10 or the locking cap 30 with respect to each other, the rotatable cap 40 rotates together with the attachment portion 10 with respect to the locking cap 30, thereby allowing the first tab 55 of the biased switch 50 to be released into the tab groove 45 of the rotatable cap 40 in order to prevent further rotation of the rotatable cap 40 and prevent removal of the locking cap 30 from the attachment portion 10.
