ABSTRACT:

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The invention relates to a cellular phone pouch assembly, more particularly to one that is adapted to be mounted on a bar.
2. Description of the Related Art
Referring to
FIG. 1
, a conventional cellular phone pouch assembly
1
is shown to include a pouch body
11
and an inverted U-shaped clip
12
. The pouch body
11
is adapted to receive the cellular phone
10
therein. The pouch body
11
includes a rear pouch wall
111
, and a securing piece
113
fixed to an outer wall surface of the rear pouch wall
111
and cooperating with the rear pouch wall
111
to confine a clamping space. The securing piece
113
is formed with an insert slot
114
for access into the clamping space. The inverted U-shaped clip
12
has an anchoring plate portion
121
secured to the pouch body
11
, a resilient engaging portion
124
disposed behind the anchoring plate portion
121
, and a bridging plate portion
122
interconnecting upper ends of the anchoring and resilient engaging portions
121
,
124
. The anchoring plate portion
121
of the clip
12
extends into the clamping space via the insert slot
114
, and is riveted to both the rear pouch wall
111
and the securing piece
113
by a fastener
120
. The resilient engaging portion
124
is further formed with a barb end
125
. The barb end
125
is used to retain the clip
12
on a belt
19
when the former engages the latter.
A main drawback of the pouch assembly
1
resides in that, when the user is riding a motorcycle or bicycle, it is inconvenient for the user to access the cellular phone that is clipped on the belt of the user.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Therefore, the main object of the present invention is to provide a cellular phone pouch assembly that is adapted to be mounted on a bar, such as a motorcycle or bicycle handlebar, for ready access by the user.
Accordingly, the pouch assembly of this invention is adapted to hold a cellular phone and is adapted to be mounted on a bar. The pouch assembly includes a pouch body, an inverted U-shaped clip, a bar clamping member, a slideable coupling device, and an interlocking device. The pouch body is adapted to receive the cellular phone there in. The inverted U-shaped clip has an anchoring plate portion secured to the pouch body, a resilient engaging portion disposed behind the anchoring plate portion, and a bridging plate portion interconnecting upper ends of the anchoring and resilient engaging portions. The bar clamping member includes a base wall portion and a bar clamp portion connected to the base wall portion and adapted to clamp the bar. The slideable coupling device is formed on and couples slideably and removably the resilient engaging portion of the clip and the base wall portion of the bar clamping member. The interlocking device is provided on and locks releasably the base wall portion of the bar clamping member against sliding movement relative to the resilient engaging portion of the clip.
