CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION
[0001] The present application claims priority to, and the benefit of, U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 559, 501, which was filed on Feb. 29, 2024, and is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0002] The present invention relates generally to the field of electronic vaporizers. More specifically, the present invention relates to a vaporizer attachment device that allows a vaporizer to be removably attached to a vaporizer and a garment of a user. Accordingly, the present disclosure makes specific reference thereto. Nonetheless, it is to be appreciated that aspects of the present invention are also equally applicable to other like applications, devices, and methods of manufacture.BACKGROUND
[0003] Vaping has become a widespread habit for many individuals, offering an alternative to traditional smoking. However, one of the challenges that vaporizer users often encounter is finding a suitable and convenient place to store and access their vape. The compact and sleek design of vapes, while aesthetically pleasing and portable, also makes them quite easy to misplace. This issue is compounded by the fact that vapes can effortlessly slip out of pockets or bags, leading to situations where they may be accidentally dropped or lost without the owner even realizing it until much later.
[0004] Therefore, there exists a long-felt need in the art for a device for securing a vaporizer. There also exists a long-felt need in the art for a vaporizer attachment device. More specifically, there exists a long-felt need in the art for a vaporizer attachment device that minimizes the chance of losing or misplacing a vaporizer. Furthermore, there exists a long-felt need in the art for a vaporizer attachment device that minimizes the chance of losing or misplacing a vaporizer by allowing the vaporizer to be easily attached to a user's person.
[0005] The subject matter disclosed and claimed herein, in one embodiment thereof, comprises a vaporizer attachment device for attaching a vaporizer to various surfaces, objects, or items, such as garments worn by a user. The device comprises a first fastener that attaches to the vaporizer. This first fastener is designed to attach to at least one second fastener, which allows the vaporizer to be secured to a desired location. The second fastener is preferably a clip or a clamp. The first fastener can be either fixedly or removably attached to the second fastener, with the removable attachment facilitated by at least one attachment fastener that can be a magnet, a snap button, a hook and loop fastener, etc. In some embodiments, the second fastener includes an attachment fastener that mates with the attachment fastener of the first fastener.
[0006] In this manner, the vaporizer attachment device of the present invention accomplishes all the foregoing objectives and provides a device for securing a vaporizer. More specifically, when used the device minimizes the chance of losing or misplacing a vaporizer. The device does so by allowing the vaporizer to be easily attached to a user's person.SUMMARY
