Wearable clipboard pouch system

Abstract

A wearable clipboard pouch is disclosed herein. The wearable clipboard pouch includes a pouch, a closure strap, a belt loop, and a band. The pouch has two parallel flat panels joined together at three of four edges to form a compartment able to hold a clipboard. At the fourth edge, an opening is defined, and a flap able to act as a closure projects outwardly from the pouch. The flap can be curled back over the opening to close it, and the closure-strap may be used to affix the flap closed over the opening. The belt loop may be a closed loop of channel able to accept a belt. The band may connect the belt loop to the pouch and suspend the pouch from a belt when the belt loop is hung on a belt.

What is claimed is new and desired to be protected by Letters Patent is set forth in the appended claims:

         7 . The wearable pouch of  claim 1 , wherein the flap is integral to the second-panel of the pouch. 
     
     
         8 . The wearable pouch of  claim 1 , wherein the first-panel is stitched to the second-panel. 
     
     
         9 . The wearable pouch of  claim 1 , wherein the first panel and the second-panel are separated by a pouch-width, the pouch-width being within ten percent of one-inch. 
     
     
         10 . The wearable pouch of  claim 1 , wherein the interior-compartment of the pouch has a compartment-width and a compartment-length, the compartment-width measuring within ten-percent of nine inches, and the compartment-length measuring within twenty-percent of twelve-and-a-half inches, such that the interior-compartment is suitable sized to receive a standard clipboard. 
     
     
         11 . The wearable pouch of  claim 1 , wherein the pouch and the belt-loop are each comprised of waterproofed ballistic nylon. 
     
     
         12 . A clipboard belt pouch accessory comprising:
 a pouch having an interior-compartment having a first-panel and a second-panel, the first-panel and the second-panel being substantially parallel, the pouch being bounded by three closed-edges and an opening, such that the three-closed edges each join the first-panel to the second-panel, the opening itself comprising a flap, such that the flap may be curled over the opening to close the interior-compartment;   a closure-strap affixed to the pouch able to retain the flap in a curled position to close the interior-compartment;   a belt-loop able to receive a belt; and   a band comprising a planar fabric panel affixing the pouch to the belt-loop, such that the pouch may be suspended from the belt-loop;   wherein the band further comprises a belt-edge and a pouch-edge opposite the belt-edge, the pouch-edge and the belt-edge being nonparallel when the band is laid flat, such that the band may be further bounded by a short-edge running between the belt-edge and the pouch-edge, and a long-edge running between the belt-edge and the pouch-edge, the band comprising a total of four consecutive edges;   wherein the belt-edge and the pouch-edge are angled relative to each other by more than twenty degrees;   further comprising a hook-and-loop fastener, the hook-and-loop fastener being able to removably affix the closure-strap to the pouch in order to retain the flap in a curled position to close the interior-compartment;   wherein the band is elastic;   wherein the flap may be disposed perpendicularly to the pouch-edge of the band, and the flap may be disposed proximate to the short-edge of the band, causing the opening of the pouch to be angled toward an axis of the belt-loop;   wherein the flap is integral to the second-panel of the pouch;   wherein the first-panel is stitched to the second-panel;   wherein the first panel and the second-panel are separated by a pouch-width, the pouch-width being within ten percent of one-inch; and   wherein the interior-compartment of the pouch has a compartment-width and a compartment-length, the compartment-width measuring within ten-percent of nine inches, and the compartment-length measuring within twenty-percent of twelve-and-a-half inches, such that the interior-compartment is suitable sized to receive a standard clipboard.
