Abstract
Apparatuses and systems for providing a hands-free portable device positioning are described herein. One wearable portable computing device holding apparatus includes a set of straps that include strap portions that are positioned over shoulders of a wearer, back portions that each extend down a back side of the wearer, and a front portion that extends down a front side of the wearer to secure the apparatus to a torso of the wearer. One apparatus includes a plurality of elongate portable computing device moving members each having a direction of elongation there along, wherein a first one of the elongate portable computing device moving members has a first end attached to a first one of the set of straps along the front portion.
Claims20
A wearable portable computing device holding apparatus, comprising:
- a set of straps that include two strap portions that are positioned over shoulders of a wearer, two back portions that each extend down a back side of the wearer, and a front portion that extends down a front side of the wearer to secure the wearable portable computing device holding apparatus to a torso of the wearer;
- a plurality of elongate portable computing device moving members each having a direction of elongation there along, wherein a first one of the elongate portable computing device moving members has a first end attached to a first one of the set of straps along the front portion;
- and
- wherein each of the plurality of elongate portable computing device moving members includes a portable computing device holding structure that allows a portable computing device to be held at a distance from the front side of the wearer and wherein the distance can be changed through articulation of the first one of the elongate portable computing device moving members.
A wearable portable computing device holding apparatus, comprising:
- a set of straps that include a strap portion that is positioned over shoulders of a wearer, a back portion that extends down a back side of the wearer, and a front portion that extends down a front side of the wearer;
- a plurality of elongate portable computing device moving members each having a direction of elongation there along, wherein a first one of the elongate portable computing device moving members has a first end attached to a first one of the set of straps along the front portion and wherein a second one of the elongate portable computing device moving members has a first end attached to a second one of the set of straps along the front portion;
- wherein each of the plurality of elongate portable computing device moving members has a second end attached to a portable computing device holding structure that allows a portable computing device to be held at a distance from the front side of the wearer and wherein the distance can be changed through articulation of the elongate portable computing device moving members;
- and
- wherein the portable computing device holding structure is attached to the second end of the plurality of elongate portable computing device moving members via an attachment mechanism that allows each of the plurality of elongate portable computing device moving members to rotate around a central axis of each elongate portable computing device moving members.
A wearable portable computing device holding system, comprising:
- a set of straps that include a strap portion that is positioned over shoulders of a wearer, a back portion that extends down a back side of the wearer, a front portion that extends down a front side of the wearer to secure the wearable portable computing device holding system to a torso of the wearer, and a fastening mechanism along the back portion to releasably attach a backpack;
- a plurality of elongate portable computing device moving members each having a direction of elongation there along, wherein each of the elongate portable computing device moving members has a first end attached to the front portion of the set of straps;
- and
- wherein each of the plurality of elongate portable computing device moving members includes a portable computing device holding structure that allows a portable computing device to be held at a distance from the front side of the wearer and wherein the distance can be changed through articulation of each of the elongate portable computing device moving members.
