Patent Images
1. A mobile device holder, comprising:
- a) a base having an inner side configured to be affixed to the mobile device;
b) a hub carried by the base and continuously rotatable on the base about a rotational axis;
c) a rotational bearing with bearings rotatably coupling the hub to the base;
d) a ring carried by the hub and pivotally coupled to the hub about a pivot axis that is orthogonal to the rotational axis, the ring being continuously rotatable along with the hub on the base, the ring pivotable with respect to the hub between at least a retracted position circumscribing the hub, and a deployed position extending at an acute angle with respect to the hub;
e) indicia carried by the hub;
f) a pad positioned on and extending from the hub and having an exterior surface;
g) the exterior surface of the pad extending beyond the ring in the retracted position; and
h) the exterior surface of the pad being tacky.

Abstract
A mobile device holder comprises a base having an inner side to be affixed to the mobile device. A hub is carried by the base and is rotatable on the base about a rotational axis. A rotational bearing rotatably couples the hub to the base. A ring is carried by the hub and is pivotally coupled to the hub about a pivot axis that is orthogonal to the rotational axis. The ring is rotatable along with the hub on the base. In addition, the ring is pivotable with respect to the hub between at least a retracted position circumscribing the hub, and a deployed position extending at an acute angle with respect to the hub. The hub has an exterior side with indicia thereon.

19. A mobile device holder, comprising:
-
a) a base having an inner side configured to be affixed to the mobile device; b) a hub carried by the base and continuously rotatable 360 degrees on the base about a rotational axis configured to be perpendicular to the mobile device; c) a rotational bearing with bearings in an annular space and rotatably coupling the hub to the base; d) a ring carried by the hub and pivotally coupled to the hub about a pivot axis that is orthogonal to the rotational axis, the ring being continuously rotatable along with the hub on the base, the ring pivotable with respect to the hub between at least a retracted position circumscribing the hub, and a deployed position extending at an acute angle with respect to the hub; e) a pad positioned on and extending from the hub and having an exterior surface; f) the exterior surface of the pad extending beyond the ring in the retracted position; and g) the exterior surface of the pad being tacky. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21)
