DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

An embodiment of the cellular phone holder regarding this invention will hereinafter be specifically described with reference to the following drawings in which:FIG. 1is a developed perspective view showing a structure of a cellular phone holder regarding this invention;FIG. 2shows a fully assembled state of the cellular phone holder ofFIG. 1; FIGS.3(a) and (b) are descriptive perspective views showing a structure of other examples, respectively; FIGS.4(a), (b), and (c) are perspective views showing a state where a cellular phone is taken out by removing a longitudinal strap belt sideways, respectively; and FIGS.5(a) and (b) are referential views showing an example of an attached state of a standard type cellular phone and a collapsible type cellular phone.

FIG.1andFIG. 2show a cellular phone holder1regarding this invention comprised of a lateral case2and a longitudinal strap belt3attached in a manner so as to intersect with the lateral case2.

The lateral case2is structured with a single wide strap-like trunk member4in which the trunk member is made from such as a fabric of chemical fiber, cotton or the like; a resin; or leather. A Velcro (Registered Trademark, also Registered Trademark “Magic Tape” in Japan) tape5capable of clinging to each other is arranged in a predetermined position of the trunk member4.

The lateral case2for holding a trunk portion of a cellular phone is easily structured by bending and wrapping the trunk member4into a cylindrical shape and thus having a plurality of Velcro tapes5arranged at predetermined positions to cling with each other.

Thus structure of the lateral case2enables free adjustment of an inner diameter of the lateral case2by altering the clinging positions of the Velcro tapes5arranged on the trunk member4.

The Velcro tapes5capable of clinging to each other are also arranged at predetermined positions on both ends of the longitudinal strap belt3. The longitudinal strap belt3has an elastic structure since a portion of the longitudinal strap belt3is formed by an elastic material6e.g., a rubber material.

Other than the elastic material6, the longitudinal strap belt3is comprised of a plurality of strap belts7in the plural strap belts7are coupled to each other by a ring8. As shown particularly inFIG. 1, a length of a portion of the strap belt7could be adjusted by altering the bending and clinging position of the Velcro tape5.

A band9is detachably attached to a back portion of the lateral case2and the longitudinal strap belt3by using the Velcro tape5arranged at the tip of the band9. The length of the band9could be adjusted by altering the attachment position and by attaching the band9through a waist belt11, the cellular phone holder1could be longitudinally attached to a waist area. In addition, by attaching the band9through a hanging member, not shown, the cellular phone holder1could be used by hanging around the neck or the like.

Since the length of the band9could be adjusted by altering the attachment position of the Velcro tape arranged on the tip of thus band9, by making the length of the band9longer, a space would be created between the band and the waist belt11; accordingly, the cellular phone longitudinally positioned upon the waist belt11would become tilted and would not be an obstruction when a user takes a seat. Furthermore, the band could be shortened so that the cellular phone holder1could be secured to a predetermined position when attached to a shoulder of a rucksack or the like.

Since the cellular phone holder1shown in FIG.1andFIG. 2could adjust the inner diameter of the lateral case2by altering the position of the wrapping and clinging position of the trunk member4, a standard type cellular phone as well as a collapsible type cellular phone having different width could be securely held within the lateral case2respectively.

Furthermore, since the cellular phone holder1is capable of altering the length of the longitudinal strap belt3, both types of cellular phones having different longitudinal length (height) could be fastened securely by adjusting the longitudinal strap belt3.

As the examples shown in FIGS.3(a) and (b), the length of the longitudinal strap belt3would become more adjustable by attaching a long Velcro tape5to a portion of a strap belt7of a longitudinal strap belt3, or by attaching a plurality of a Velcro tape5in an intervallic-spaced arrangement.

The longitudinal strap belt3could freely be stretched owing to the elastic material6provided at a portion of the longitudinal strap belt3in accordance with the embodiment of the cellular phone holder1.

As shown in FIGS.4(a), (b), (c), the cellular phone10could easily be taken out of the cellular phone holder1by sliding the tip of the longitudinal strap belt3fastened to a cellular phone10across the top of the cellular phone10and then by removing the longitudinal strap belt3from the cellular phone10. On the other hand, the cellular phone10could be held inside the cellular phone holder1by re-fastening the longitudinal strap belt3to the cellular phone10.

Furthermore, the strap belt7could smoothly be moved sideways along the ring8owing to the structure in which a ring couples a longitudinal strap belt3coupled to a plurality of strap belt7; accordingly, the longitudinal strap belt3could be more easily unfastened from and more easily fastened to the cellular phone10.

Although the Velcro tape5is used to temporarily secure the trunk member4, the strap belt7, the band9etc. in this embodiment, the use would not be limited to Velcro tape5and other attachment members could be used instead as long as thus members are detachable.

The lateral case2and the longitudinal strap belt3comprised in the cellular phone holder1could be formed with an electromagnetic wave shielding member, respectively. Thus using the electromagnetic wave shielding member, a physically hazardous effect of electromagnetic wave emitted from the cellular phone held inside the cellular phone holder1could be prevented.

Although the cellular phone holder1of this embodiment is structured for holding a standard type cellular phone as well as a collapsible type cellular phone in which the length of the longitudinal strap belt3could be extensively adjusted by use of the strap belt7and the ring8, in an occasion where the cellular phone holder1is used for holding only a single type of cellular phone, the longitudinal strap belt3could be structured with just an elastic material6e.g., a rubber material formed among a portion of thus longitudinal strap belt3.

As the examples shown in FIGS.5(a) and (b), when attaching a cellular phone holder1holding a cellular phone10to a waist, the cellular phone holder1could easily be attached to a waist area by attaching the trunk member4or the band9of the cellular phone holder1through a waist belt11. FIG.5(a) shows the embodiment of the attached state of the standard type cellular phone and FIG.5(b) shows the embodiment of the attached state of the collapsible type cellular phone.

The lateral case of the cellular phone holder could hold within a standard type cellular phone as well as a collapsible type having different width, since this invention regarding the cellular phone holder is structured to freely change the inner diameter of thus lateral case2, which holds the trunk portion of the cellular phone. Furthermore, the longitudinal strap belt could longitudinally secure the outer peripheral surface of the standard type cellular phone as well as the collapsible type cellular phone having different longitudinal length, since the longitudinal strap belt capable of adjusting length is attached and fixed to the back of the lateral case in a manner so as to intersect with the lateral case.

By arranging Velcro tape at plural portions of the trunk member of the lateral case, the Velcro tape would cling to each other at prescribed portions and would make the altering and adjustment of the inner diameter of the lateral case more easier.

Since a portion of the longitudinal strap belt is made into an elastic structure, the longitudinal strap belt could be easily removed or re-fastened by sliding sideways thus longitudinal strap belt fastened across the cellular phone.

Since a ring couples the longitudinal strap belt to a plurality of strap belts, the longitudinal strap belt fastened across the cellular phone could be removed or re-fastened more easily by sliding the respective strap belts sideways along thus ring.

Since the lateral case and the longitudinal strap belt of the cellular phone holder regarding this invention is formed by an electromagnetic wave-shielding member, the physically hazardous electromagnetic wave emitted from the cellular phone held inside the cellular phone holder could be prevented.

A band could be attached through the trouser belt without having to remove the trouser belt since the band is arranged on a back side of the lateral case in which the band for attachment on a trouser belt or the like is capable of altering length and has an attachment member disposed on the tip of thus band. By altering the position of the attachment member so as to make the length of the band longer, a space would be created between the band and the waist belt; accordingly, the cellular phone longitudinally positioned upon the waist belt would become tilted and would not be an obstruction when taking a seat. Furthermore, the band could be shortened so that the cellular phone holder could be fixed to a predetermined position during an attachment to a shoulder of a rucksack or the like.
