BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

With the diffusion of mobile devices (Smartphones, digital cameras, tablets, etc.) and their complexity we have increased the time we are using these devices because every day they offer us new possibilities and applications, which often require us to be holding with hands the device for an increasingly longer period of time which can be tired, or impractical because it prevents simultaneous use of the device with another task, it is the case of watching a video on the mobile phone or video recording, as well The prolonged manual support of a device can cause us to shake the pulse or in the case of taking a picture, a self-photo or video so the result can be completely unsatisfactory because we may be focusing incorrectly.
So far, different devices have been used to facilitate the support of mobile devices, usually a different one for each of the devices, in the case of cameras a traditional resource is the use of a device.
Tripod that can serve this purpose example of this is the United States patent. N. 6.254.044, it is an appropriate technique but sometimes it is difficult and that restricts us only to the use of cameras or video cameras and is an external element to our body and must be located at a distance that does not It allows us an optimal handling of the device. 5
Another example, also restricted to photographic devices is the kit with telescopic arm of the Minolta Disc-7 camera, which is sometimes sold as a kit, the kit includes an accessory telescopic arm. The tilting handle and the telescopic arm are shown in US Pat. No. 4,560,261.
In the case of the rest of the mobile devices throughout these years, different fastening and support systems have been developed, in the case of telephones, Smartphones and other devices, some examples such as US8162283B1, US5815894A, US20090218454A1, which they free the user from carrying the device, but at the same time it requires that they rest on different surfaces (table, floor, etc.,). In other cases, it has been decided to facilitate the handling with 15 portable supports such as those expressed in US20120080462A1, US20160134733A1, but that give little results when leaving hands free to combine tasks and in most cases has the limitation that they cannot be used in motion.
There are other systems that are used to carry the devices and that allow 20 limited tasks such as recording and photography, with the appearance of the go-pro camera, accessories and harness types have been popularized that facilitate motion recording by offering In most cases, the subjective perspective of the one who records is the case of the following patents: US 6955484 B2, US 4461411 A, US 8342758 B2. They can adapt to different devices and adapt to different 25 parts of the body such as chest, wrist or head. Although they offer the ease of use on the move, the main problem is the difficulty when taking self-photos, talking on the phone or watching videos from digital devices among other disadvantages.
Finally, there is also the mobile device stick, patent: US 7684694 B2 30 that releases part of the handling of the devices and allows improvements such as movement and dispense with a support surface when making self-photos and other tasks with the devices mobile, it is still very limited because it needs a hand for its handling, therefore it is not “hands free”, and its use is limited only to recording or taking pictures, it is not practical for other multiple uses of the devices 35
mobile phones
