Abstract
A wristband with a concealed key pocket includes a continuous generally circular main body having a pocket assembly with an elongated sleeve for holding a key, and a flap for disguising the existence of the sleeve.
Description
- The present invention relates generally to key carriers, and more particularly to a wristband having an integrated and concealed carrying pocket capable of holding a user's key in situations where pockets and purses are inaccessible or undesirable to utilize.
- Though individuals are often able to keep small items such as keys, electronic key fobs, and the like accessible by way of pockets, wallets and purses, it is not uncommon to occasionally find oneself in a situation where these storage choices are not readily available. For example, athletes often train on their own outside of establishments like gyms and athletic clubs that offer secure places to store personal items. As such, athletes are often required to find or create makeshift areas to store house and/or car keys, for example. Alternatively, they must leave their homes and cars unlocked during their workout routine and hope that nothing untoward happens during their absence. Moreover, traditional workout clothing rarely, if ever, has pockets that accommodate small items, such as keys, that are essential to the average person's daily routine.
- In light of the above, it would be beneficial to provide a lightweight, unobtrusive key carrying wristband that can be securely and comfortably worn by a user during any number of common activities.
- The present invention is directed to a wristband with a concealed key pocket. One embodiment of the device includes a continuous generally circular main body having a pocket assembly that includes an elongated sleeve for holding a key, and a flap for disguising the existence of the sleeve.
- Another embodiment of the device includes a main body having an adjustable size and a pocket assembly located on the inside portion of the main body.
- This summary is provided merely to introduce certain concepts and not to identify key or essential features of the claimed subject matter.
- Presently preferred embodiments are shown in the drawings. It should be appreciated, however, that the invention is not limited to the precise arrangements and instrumentalities shown.

main body 11 can include a generally circular shape configured to be secured to the arm or leg of a user. In one preferred embodiment, themain body 11 can include aninside surface 11 a configured to make contact with the arm or leg of a user, and anoutside surface 11 b configured to face away from the arm or leg of the user. Themain body 11 can preferably be constructed from a single piece of natural or blended fabric having excellent elastic characteristics and can be configured to stretch/contract around the appendage of the user to which it is ultimately attached. The resilient quality of elastic materials will thus allow the wristband to be worn without exhibiting signs of continued wear. Though fabrics of the athletic variety are mentioned, other fabrics, such as leather are also contemplated. - In one alternate embodiment illustrated in
FIG. 1 b, themain body 11 can include a single piece of semi-flexible material such as rubber, plastic or nylon, for example, that are capable of conforming to the shape of the arm or leg to which it is attached. The main body can further include twoends halves device 10 to be sized for the arm of each individual user without requiring the device to be installed over a hand or foot in order to be worn. - As described herein, a band connector 12 can include any number of known devices capable of securing two items together in a removable manner. Several examples include opposing strips of hook and loop material (i.e. Velcro®, magnetic elements, and compression fittings such as snaps and buttons which can be permanently secured to each end of the
main body 11 by a permanent sealer such as glue, adhesive or stitching. -
FIG. 2 illustrates one embodiment of a concealedkey pocket assembly 20. As shown, thepocket 20 can include anelongated sleeve 21 formed by an additional portion of band material having a length and width suitable for securely enclosing asmall item 5 such as a key, key fob or other such item. As shown,sleeve 21 can include anopening 21 a at one end for allowing objects to be inserted into and removed from the sleeve (see arrow A). In one embodiment, the opening itself can include aconnector 21 a 1 such as Velcro® for preventing inserted objects from inadvertently separating from the opening. - The
pocket 20 can also include a anextension flap 22 having anoutside surface 22 a and aninside surface 22 b that is configured to cover thesleeve 21 when the device is in operation (See arrow B). Theextension flap 22 can serve the dual purpose of better disguising the existence of thesleeve 21, and as a secondary method of preventing objects from falling out of the sleeve. As shown, theflap 22 can be permanently secured to themain body 11 adjacent to theopening 21 a and can be configured to be secured to the outside portion of thesleeve 21 via anotherconnector 23 such as Velcro®, for example. - As described herein, the
pocket 20 can be constructed from a material that is identical to or different from the main body. Moreover, the physical construction of thepocket 20 can be performed separately from the main body and then secured thereon by stitching, or any other known method of joining fabrics. Alternatively, thepocket 20 can be incorporated into the construction of the main body itself by any number of known construction methodologies. - Although illustrated as being positioned on the outside portion of the
main body 11 b, one of skill in the art will recognize that thepocket 20 can also be secured to the inside portion of themain body 11 a for increased secrecy. - In one alternate embodiment shown in
FIG. 3 , thedevice 10 can include any number of unique markings and/or designs. In one preferred embodiment, the outside portion of theflap 22 a (the part which is visible when the device is worn) can include alogo 31 or other such marking so as to further disguise the existence of the sleeve underneath. Such a feature can be useful for both aesthetic, advertising and security reasons. - As illustrated in
FIGS. 4 and 5 , once theextension flap 22 is secured over thesleeve 21, thepocket 20 appears to be a seamless component of themain body 11, while being able to securely and confidentially carrying a key or other such item. After use, the operator can simply lift the extension flap 22 away from the band, remove the key, reseal the flap and store the band. - Although described above as utilizing Velcro® with regard to the
connector - As described herein, one or more elements of the wristband with concealed
key pocket 10 can be secured together utilizing any number of known attachment means such as, for example, glue, fusible webbing and fabric adhesives, among others. Moreover, although the above embodiments have been described as including separate individual elements, the inventive concepts disclosed herein are not so limiting. To this end, one of skill in the art will recognize that one or more individual elements such as themain band 11, securingflap 22, andsleeve pocket 21, including all sub components, for example, may be formed together as one continuous element, either through manufacturing processes, such as stitching, gluing, or molding, or through the use of a singular piece of material milled or machined with the aforementioned components forming identifiable sections thereof. Accordingly, in one alternate embodiment, each above described element of the wristband with concealedkey pocket 10 can be constructed from a single piece of flexible, breathable nylon, polyester or fabric blend that is elastic enough to be used by individuals of varying sizes and age groups, however other materials such as leather, PVC, plastic, rubber and/or metallic elements, are also contemplated. - As to a further description of the manner and use of the present invention, the same should be apparent from the above description. Accordingly, no further discussion relating to the manner of usage and operation will be provided.
