Adjustable utility belt system having tool-specific holders

Abstract

An adjustable utility belt system is described. The system comprises a belt. The system further comprises a plurality of tool-specific holders. Each tool-specific holder comprises a holder body. Additionally, each tool-specific holder also comprises a belt attachment component having a first end that is secured to the holder body and a second end that is detachably attached to the holder body. Further, each tool-specific holder also comprises a twist-fastening component that detachably attaches the second end of the belt attachment component to the holder body. Each tool-specific holder also comprises a tool holder attached to the holder body, where the tool holder has at least one portion that is angled so as to provide support for angle-shaped tools.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An adjustable utility belt system, the system comprising:
 a belt;   a plurality of tool-specific holders, each tool-specific holder comprising:
 a holder body; 
 a belt attachment component having a first end that is secured to the holder body and a second end that is detachably attached to the holder body; 
 a twist-fastening component that detachably attaches the second end of the belt attachment component to the holder body; and 
 a tool holder attached to the holder body, the tool holder having at least one portion that is angled so as to provide a wider entry area for tools. 
   
     
     
         2 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein at least one tool-specific holder of the plurality of tool-specific holders has two pouches. 
     
     
         3 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the tool holder comprises a band having a first end that is secured to the holder body and a second end that is secured to the holder body, wherein the band is secured so as to minimize movement of a tool within the tool holder. 
     
     
         4 . The system of  claim 3 , wherein the band partially extends away from the holder body, forming a pouch. 
     
     
         5 . The system of  claim 4 , wherein the pouch is partially unsecured at its base. 
     
     
         6 . The system of  claim 3 , wherein the band is formed of a stiff material so as to securely hold a sharp object. 
     
     
         7 . The system of  claim 6 , wherein the band is formed of leather. 
     
     
         8 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of tool-specific holders are activity-specific. 
     
     
         9 . The system of  claim 8 , wherein the activity-specific plurality of tool-specific holders include a first combination of tool-specific holders. 
     
     
         10 . The system of  claim 9 , wherein the activity-specific plurality of tool-specific holders include a second combination of tool-specific holders that are interchangeable with the first combination of tool-specific holders. 
     
     
         11 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein a portion of the plurality of tool-specific holders are placed along the belt. 
     
     
         12 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein placement of each of the plurality of tool-specific holders is interchangeable across the belt. 
     
     
         13 . A double tool-specific holder, the holder comprising:
 a holder body;   a belt attachment component having a first end that is secured to the holder body and a second end that is detachably attached to the holder body;   a twist-fastening component that detachably attaches the second end of the belt attachment component to the holder body;   a first tool holder attached to the holder body; and   a second tool holder attached to the holder body, wherein the first tool holder and the second tool holder share one securing portion.   
     
     
         14 . The double tool-specific holder of  claim 13 , wherein the first tool holder and the second tool holder are formed from a continuous piece of material. 
     
     
         15 . The double tool-specific holder of  claim 13 , wherein the tool holder comprises a band having a first end that is secured to the holder body, a second end that is secured to the holder body, and a central portion that is secured between the first end and the second end. 
     
     
         16 . The double tool-specific holder of  claim 15 , wherein the band partially extends away from the holder body, forming two pouches. 
     
     
         17 . The double tool-specific holder of  claim 13 , wherein the tools associated with the double tool-specific holder are associated with a first stage of a painting project. 
     
     
         18 . The double tool-specific holder of  claim 15 , wherein the band further comprises a base of at least one pouch that is secured to the holder body. 
     
     
         19 . The double tool-specific holder of  claim 13 , wherein each tool holder is formed based on a shape of a tool to be held in the tool-specific holder. 
     
     
         20 . An adjustable utility belt system, the system comprising:
 a belt;   a plurality of tool-specific holders, each tool-specific holder comprising:
 a holder body, wherein the holder body extends horizontally to accommodate a particular shape of a tool; 
 a belt attachment component having a first end that is secured to the holder body and a second end that is detachably attached to the holder body; 
 a twist-fastening component that detachably attaches the second end of the belt attachment component to the holder body; and 
 a tool holder attached to the holder body, the tool holder having at least one portion that is angled so as to provide support for angle-shaped tools.
