Magnetic Tool Belts and Tool Belt Attachments

【Related application】

This patent application is filed under 35 U.S.C. Section 119(e) of co-pending U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60/998,839, filed October 11, 2007, entitled "Magnetic Tool Holder," filed November 19, 2007 Co-pending U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61/003,751, entitled "Magnetic Tool Holder," filed on 11.26, and entitled "Magnetic Tool Holder" Priority to Patent Application No. 61/004,440, all of which are incorporated herein by reference.

【Technical field】

The present invention generally relates to magnetic tool holders. More specifically, the present invention relates to magnetic tool belts and tool belt accessories.

【Background technique】

Professional users of small hand tools such as carpenters, seamstresses, auto mechanics, electricians, plumbers, builders, etc., as well as non-professional do-it-yourselfers, whenever they misplace, drop or fumble with tools or utensils, often feel frustrated. Workers often wear aprons or similar devices to hold these implements to keep them nearby and also be able to move more freely. However, wearing an apron or similar device has certain limitations. For example, repeatedly reaching into pockets to access utensils is tedious. Furthermore, wearing an apron or similar device does not help with the task of reaching for tools when holding a perfectly aligned workpiece, or holding a heavy workpiece with one hand and some other tool with the other. Additionally, aprons or similar devices have a tendency to accidentally loose tools or work items held in pockets of the apron or similar device. This scatter is often caused by workers accidentally bumping the tool or work item with their hands, or by how the workers are positioned as they work. At other times, whenever the worker removes the pocket from his waist and puts the pocket down, the contents of the pocket will be scattered.
