20090314813 | MAGNETIC TOOL HOLSTER - A magnetic holder/holster device is disclosed. The device includes a holster body to hold a tool, one or more magnets coupled to the surface of the body for holding work items, a securing strap, and an apparatus to removably attach to a belt. The one or more magnets are distributed across the surface so as to allow metallic work items to be secured to substantially all points of the surface. In some embodiments, the magnets are permanently coupled to the surface of the device. In some embodiments, the magnets are removably attached to the surface. In operation, the magnetic tool holder/holster allows a worker wearing the holder/holster device to securely hold metallic work items readily accessible on the magnetic holder/holster body via the magnetic attraction of the magnets. The magnetic tool holder/holster has the advantage of preventing the spilling of metallic work items as wells as making them more convenient to use by ensuring secure and convenient placing capabilities. | 12-24-2009 |
20110005944 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR DISPLAYING TOOL HOLDERS INCORPORATING MAGNETS - An apparatus to display a tool holder that incorporates magnets comprises at least a magnetically attractable work item, a tool holder incorporating magnets and an attachment mechanism for attaching the magnetically attractable work item to the display. The attachment mechanism attaches to the magnetic tool holder such that the magnetically attractable work item is able to be removed from the magnet of the tool holder while still coupled to the magnetic tool display. In some embodiments, the apparatus also comprises a display placard. In these embodiments, the attachment mechanism attaches to the display placard and the magnetically attractable work item such that the magnetically attractable work item is able to be removed from the magnet of the tool holder while still coupled to the display placard. | 01-13-2011 |
20130126541 | MAGNETIC ITEM HOLDER - A system for holding an item comprises a magnetic item comprising one or more magnets and a universal base comprising a magnetically attractable surface and for removably coupling with the magnetic item.
