Purpose and plain-language scope
The patent concerns a case and mount system for a handheld electronic device—a protective case that can be attached to and released from a mount. Per the supplied prior-art keywords, the system involves a case, the electronic device, a slip feature, an interlocking feature, and a magnet. Classifications place it in device enclosures (G06F1/1656, A45C11/00), cycle-mounted accessories (B62J9/21), and mechanical fastening/supports—key-type connections (F16B3/00), quick-release heads (F16M11/041), roll-axis pivoting for landscape/portrait rotation (F16M11/105), and supports attaching to objects such as a cycle (F16M13/02). Together these indicate a removable case that interlocks and magnetically secures to a mount, permits rotation, and can attach to an object like a bicycle.

Assignment history

Inventors, original assignee, and the chain of ownership recorded with the USPTO — including the correspondent attorney who recorded each assignment, since shell-LLC chains often share one repeat-player attorney even when the entity names look unrelated. Surfaces NPE / patent-troll patterns: shell-entity transfers, known asserters in the chain, repeat correspondent fingerprints, pre-litigation assignments, and bankruptcy fire-sales.
