Abstract

A removable position locator having a light source and attachment hardware for attaching the removable position locator to a body, the attachment hardware has at least one hardware light-transmitting through-hole, the removable position locator has at least one locator light-transmitting through-hole and the light from the light source is projected outward through the light-transmitting through-hole, the body has an opening that is substantially the same or bigger than the hardware light-transmitting through-hole and the opening is substantially aligned with the hardware light-transmitting through hole and the locator light-transmitting through-hole when the hardware is attached to the body.

Claims (29)

1. A removable position locator, comprising,

a shell with a first resonant chamber, a second resonant chamber, a buzzer element, a main board and a power supply

wherein the first resonant chamber is located above the second resonant chamber located below,

wherein the buzzer element separates the first resonant chamber and the second resonant chamber,

wherein the main board is connected to the buzzer element for controlling the position locator power on and off,

wherein the power supply is connected to the main board for supplying power to the main board,

wherein a central part of the buzzer element is provided with a light-transmitting through-hole and above the light-transmitting through-hole is a light source controlled by the main board, and at the bottom of the second resonant chamber is a light-transmitting channel connected to the outside, light from said light source is projected outward through the light-transmitting through-hole, the second resonant chamber and the light-transmitting channel in turn,

attachment hardware for attaching the shell to a body,

wherein the attachment hardware has at least one hardware light-transmitting through-hole,

wherein the position of the light-transmitting channel is aligned with the position of the hardware light-transmitting through-hole to allow the light source to project light outward when the shell is fixed on the hardware,

wherein the body has an opening that is substantially the same or bigger than the hardware light-transmitting through-hole and the opening is substantially aligned with the hardware light-transmitting through hole and the light-transmitting channel when the hardware is attached to the body.

2. A removable position locator as in claim 1 , wherein the attachment hardware is fixed to a back portion of a brand logo hardware.

3. A removable position locator as in claim 1 , wherein the brand logo hardware has at least two folding feet.

4. A removable position locator as in claim 1 , wherein the attachment hardware further comprises at least two hardware holes which allow the folding feet on the brand logo hardware to attach to the back of the brand logo hardware.

5. A removable position locator as in claim 1 , wherein the body has at least two holes to allow the folding feet pierced through to receive the attachment hardware to attach the attachment hardware to the body.

6. A removable position locator as in claim 1 , wherein the attachment hardware has a recessed portion to receive the removable position locator.

7. A removable position locator as in claim 1 , wherein the position locator is removably attached to the hardware by a screw.

8. A removable position locator as in claim 1 , wherein the position locator is removably fixed to the attachment hardware by a fast clip.

9. A removable position locator as in claim 1 , wherein the position locator is attached to the inner side of the body inside of a pocket.

10. A removable position locator as in claim 9 , wherein the pocket has an opening with a size of at least 20 mm to allow user to easily remove or attach the position locator.

11. A removable position locator as in claim 1 , wherein the attachment hardware is fixed on the body by glue.

12. A removable position locator as in claim 1 , wherein the body is fabric, and an edge of the opening is coated by heating cut or glue or surrounding stitching.

13. A removable position locator as in claim 8 , wherein the fast clip consists of two substantially tapered L shaped portions on the attachment hardware and an attachment clip having a tapered section that clips into the two substantially tapered L shaped portions to attach the position locator to the attachment hardware.

14. A removable position locator as in claim 1 , further comprising,

wherein the attachment hardware has logo hardware having at least one hardware light-transmitting through-hole,

wherein the position of the light-transmitting channel is aligned with the position of the hardware light-transmitting through-hole to allow the light source to project light outward when the position locator is fixed on the hardware,

wherein the body has an opening that is substantially the same or bigger than the hardware light-transmitting through-hole and the opening is substantially aligned with the hardware light-transmitting through hole and the light-transmitting channel when the hardware is attached to the body.

15. A removable position locator as in claim 14 , wherein the position locator has a threaded protruding portion and the attachment hardware has a corresponding recessed threaded portion.

16. A removable position locator as in claim 14 , wherein the position locator is removably fixed to the attachment hardware by a fast clip.
