Embodiment Construction

[0022] Embodiments of the present invention provide advantages in protection and transport of the device. In one embodiment, a container is provided that provides the advantage of allowing an operator to place the device in the container prior to detaching the device from the mounting fixture. In another embodiment, multiple containers are provided that cooperate to facilitate transport of the device during different applications—for example, when the device is transported by a shipping entity versus when it is handled by an operator by hand.

[0023] Figures 1A to 1D A container 20 for protecting and transporting devices is shown according to various embodiments of the invention. Container 20 may be used for mounting to a fixture such as, but not limited to, a tripod or a surface mount plate. Container 20 may be configured to enclose devices such as, but not limited to, telescopes, cameras, video cameras, or gauges. The container includes a first housing 22 that is rotatio...

Abstract

A case (20) for a device (100) configured to couple with a mounting fixture (462) is provided. The case (20) includes a first housing (22) and a second housing (24). The first housing (22) and the second housing (24) are cooperatively shaped to enclose a first portion (424) of the device (100) when the device (100) is coupled to the mounting fixture (462). The first housing (22) and the second housing (24) form an opening when coupled together and expose a second portion of the device (100) that comprises the coupling hardware (120) for attaching the device (100) to the mounting fixture (462). A third housing (28) is removably coupled to the opening wherein the third housing (28) is cooperatively shaped to receive the second portion of the device (100) and enclose the device (100) when the device (100) is removed from the mounting fixture (462).

Description

Background technique [0001] The present disclosure relates to a container for a device, and more particularly, to a container for a device that in use is typically mounted on a stand or a mounting fixture, which allows the operator to remove the device from the mounting fixture Stores the device in the container prior to removal from the container, and also allows the operator to attach the device to the fixture before removing the device from the container. [0002] Instruments and other devices are typically stored in containers or housings when not in use or during transport. The container provides a means of protecting the device from inadvertent damage. Additionally, in cases where the device is irregularly shaped or bulky, the container may also provide a more convenient means of transporting the device rather than simply handling the device individually. Containers typically include a hard or soft outer layer to protect the device from impact, and a softer inner layer...
