    Abstract: A retractor system for personal articles comprising a retractor having a mounting mechanism for mounting to a user, with the retractor comprising a housing with a top surface, an internal spring, and an extendable line capable of extending from the housing through the retractor top surface. The internal spring urges retraction of the extendable line back in the retractor housing. An adaptor can be included that is integral to or mounted to a personal article, with the adaptor having an extension portion extending away from the personal article. The extendable line is attached to the adaptor or personal article such that when the line is retracted into the retractor, the extension portion is on the retractor's top surface. The retractor system can also comprise one or more magnets that provide a magnetic attraction between the personal article and the retractor to securely hold the personal article to the retractor. Some of these magnets can comprise anti-swing mechanisms included to prevent swinging of the personal article when it is not in use.

    Abstract: An expandable device includes a base having a top side and a bottom side, an expanding mechanism operably coupled to the base, and a button. The bottom side of the base is adapted to engage a portion of a portable electronic device. The button has a top side and a bottom side and is operably coupled to the expanding mechanism. The expanding mechanism is selectively movable between a first configuration whereby the button is disposed in a first, collapsed configuration and a second configuration whereby the button is disposed in a second, expanded configuration. Upon urging the button to the first configuration, the expandable device retains the button in the first configuration, and upon further urging the button towards the base, the button is released from the first configuration and moves to the second configuration.

    Abstract: An outer base of annular form surrounds an open space. The base includes a magnet for attachment of the outer base to a rear of a smartphone. A center ring surrounds the open space. This ring has a bearing on an outside edge which rotates relative to a race on an inner edge of the base, allowing the center ring to rotate relative to the base. A pair of ears extend radially inwardly into this open space, with the ears attached either to the ring or base. The ears are sized and spaced apart an appropriate distance to allow one ear to lift a crimped edge of a bottle cap while the other ear rests upon a top of the bottle cap. A loop is pivotably attached to the center ring and provides a stand or a finger loop or allows a smartphone to be suspended from a hook.

    Abstract: A device for propping up an object, in particular, a long-handled object. The device includes a V-shaped leg apparatus having a pair of legs that are spaced apart from one another but may be compressed towards one another. Leg holder attaches to the long-handled object and the two legs pass through openings formed through the leg holder. A latch is attached to the long-handled object beneath the leg holder, and a slider is selectively movable along the lengths of the two legs and when moved towards the leg holder causes the legs to spread apart and spring outwardly away from the long-handled object, and when moved towards the latch, cause the legs to be brought together and extend parallel to and adjacent the long-handled object. The slider engages with the latch to lock the device in its propping position.

    Abstract: A portable lighting device having multiple mounting features providing multiple mounting configurations allowing for hands-free lighting in various situations and locations. The portable lighting device comprises a housing with (i) a front bezel configured to receive a primary optic; (ii) a central support having a securement means and a peripheral segment configured to receive an extent of a cap of a bottle; and, (iii) a rear body having a multi-positional assembly, a coupling means residing within the multi-positional assembly, and a mounting means. The lighting device also includes an illumination assembly having a light source configured to emit light beyond the housing to illuminate a surrounding area, and a power source disposed within the housing and operably coupled to the illumination assembly. The multi-positional assembly is movable between a retracted position and a deployed position that improve the utility of the portable lighting device.
