Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2001021034
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A holder device for holding encapsulating a portion of a hand holdable elongate member comprising of a mounting bracket (20) with a base (36) and two side walls (38) and a pair of side flaps (14,16) partially rotatable about a common axis. Said flaps (14,16) when in a closed position forms an enclosed chamber with an aperture (32) at one end to accommodate the elongate member. The side flaps (14,16) are mountable onto the mounting bracket (20). The edge of the side walls (38) is pivotable about the bottom portion of the side flaps (14,16). To close the side flaps (14,16) from an open position, force is applied onto the base (30) of the side flaps (14,16) from the holdable elongate member or force is applied on either one or both the side flaps (14,16) in the direction perpendicular to the common axis. To open the side flaps (14,16) from a closed position the side flaps are partially rotated by the removal of the elongate member away from the common axis. In other words when force is applied onto the base (30) of the side flaps (14,16), it will automatically trigger the side flaps (14,16) to close or open.
