Abstract

A mobile mounting device system includes at least one bracket, a male mounting plate, a female mounting plate, an attachment assembly, and a sound system component. The at least one bracket includes an interior arced surface. The male mounting plate includes a base and an elongated protrusion with a protrusion shape. The female mounting plate includes a channel with a channel shape, the channel shape including the protrusion shape and clearance room to allow the protrusion to slide into the channel. The attachment assembly is configured to detachably connect one of the male mounting plate and the female mounting plate to the tubular element with at least one bracket. The sound system component is fixedly connected to the other of the male mounting plate and the female mounting plate, and configured to fixedly and detachably attach to the vehicle through inserting the protrusion into the channel.

Claims

1. A mobile mounting device system for a vehicle with a tubular element, comprising:

at least one bracket including an interior arced surface;

a female mounting plate including a channel with a channel shape, the channel shape including the protrusion shape and clearance room to allow the protrusion to slide into the channel;

an attachment assembly configured to detachably connect one of the male mounting plate and the female mounting plate to the tubular element with at least one bracket; and

a sound system component fixedly connected to the other of the male mounting plate and the female mounting plate, and configured to detachably attach to the vehicle through inserting the protrusion into the channel.

2. The system of claim 1, further including:

an attachment plane on the male mounting plate where the protrusion is connected to the base; and

a protrusion cross section perpendicular to the attachment plane, the cross section including a first width at the intersection of the cross section and the attachment plane, and a second width parallel to the first width and different from the first width; and

wherein the second width is greater than the first width.

3. The system of claim 1, wherein the protrusion includes a protrusion end, and the protrusion end tapers in width.

4. The system of claim 1, wherein:

the at least one bracket includes a first bracket and a second bracket;

the first bracket is fixedly connected to one of the male mounting plate and the female mounting plate; and

the second bracket is configured to be detachably connected to the first bracket with the attachment assembly to detachably connect the one of the male mounting plate and the female mounting plate to the tubular element.

5. The system of claim 1, wherein:

the at least one bracket includes a first bracket including a first mounting plate attachment end and a first tubular element attachment end;

the first mounting plate attachment end is configured to detachably connect to one of the male mounting plate and the female mounting plate with the attachment assembly; and

the first tubular element attachment end is configured to wrap around the tubular element detachably connecting the one of the male mounting plate and the female mounting plate to the tubular element.

6. The system of claim 5, wherein:

the at least one bracket includes a second bracket including a second mounting plate attachment end and a second tubular element attachment end;

the second mounting plate attachment end is configured to detachably connect to the one of the male mounting plate and the female mounting plate with the attachment assembly; and

the second tubular element attachment end is configured to wrap around the tubular element detachably connecting the one of the male mounting plate and the female mounting plate to the tubular element.

7. The system of claim 1, wherein the vehicle is a bicycle, and the tubular element is one of a handlebar and a neck of the bicycle.

8. The system of claim 1, further comprising filler material for inserting between the male mounting plate and the female mounting plate when the protrusion is inserted into the channel.

13. The system of claim 8, wherein the elongated extender comprises a rectangular shaped metal plate.

14. The system of claim 8, wherein the vehicle comprises a bicycle, and the tubular element comprises a handlebar of the bicycle.

9. A mobile mounting device system for a vehicle with a tubular element, comprising:

at least one bracket including an interior arced surface;

a first connection assembly including a first male mounting plate including a first base and a first elongated protrusion with a first protrusion shape, and a first female mounting plate including a first channel with a first channel shape, the first channel shape including the first protrusion shape and clearance room to allow the first protrusion to slide into the first channel;

a second connection assembly including a second male mounting plate including a second base and a second elongated protrusion with a second protrusion shape, and a second female mounting plate including a second channel with a second channel shape, the second channel shape including the second protrusion shape and clearance room to allow the second protrusion to slide into the second channel;

an elongated extender having a vehicle connection end fixedly connected to one of the first male mounting plate and the first female mounting plate, and a device mounting end fixedly connected to one of the second male mounting plate and the second female mounting plate;

an attachment assembly configured to detachably connect the other of the first male mounting plate and the first female mounting plate to the tubular element with at least one of the brackets with the interior arced surface adjacent the tubular element;

a first device fixedly connected to the other of the second male mounting plate and the second female mounting plate, and configured to detachably connect to the vehicle through inserting the first protrusion into the first channel and inserting the second protrusion into the second channel.

10. The system of claim 9, further including:

a third connection assembly including a third male mounting plate including a third base and a third elongated protrusion with a third protrusion shape, and a third female mounting plate including a third channel with a third channel shape, the third channel shape including the third protrusion shape and clearance room to allow the third protrusion to slide into the third channel; and

a second device fixedly connected to one of the third male mounting plate and the third female mounting plate; and

wherein the other of the third male mounting plate and the third female mounting plate is fixedly connected to a mounting area of the elongated extender, and the second device is configured to detachably connect to the vehicle through inserting the third protrusion into the third channel.

11. The system of claim 10, wherein the first device and the second device are sound system components, and are communicatively connected.

12. The system of claim 11, wherein one of the first device and the second device is a speaker, and the other of the first device and the second device is a mobile electronic device for sending sound signals to the speaker.

15. A mobile mounting device system for detachably mounting a container to a neck of a bicycle, comprising:
