To facilitate hands-free operation, a communications device holder ( ) includes a tongue ( ) that is adapted to mate with and be latched within a seat belt buckle ( ) of an unoccupied vehicle passenger position. The communications device holder includes a docking assembly ( ) that is adapted to receive and securely hold a communications device ( ). The docking assembly includes interfaces for power, speakers, microphones and the like. A flexible member ( ) is alternatively attached to the tongue to flexibly configure the position of the device holder. A seat belt buckle ( ) is optionally attached to the communications device holder for securing the device holder both with the seat belt buckle for a passenger position and with the seat belt.

Communications device holder for vehicles

The invented vehicle includes a chassis, a cabin mounted on a first side of the chassis on a forward portion thereof, and a plurality of wheels coupled to the chassis to movably support the chassis. The vehicle also includes a boom unit, a tool coupled to an end of the boom unit, and turntable unit mounted to the chassis at a central portion thereof, the turntable unit coupled to and supporting the boom unit for rotation relative to the chassis. The turntable unit is capable of moving the boom unit and the tool over a second side of the chassis opposite the first side between a first position at which the tool is positioned forward of the chassis to pick up the load and a second position at which the tool is positioned over the dump body to dump the load into the dump body. The vehicle also includes a dump body mounted to a rear portion of the chassis. The dump body can be tilted to the rear or either side of the vehicle. The tool attached to the boom unit can be a dipper bucket, a loader bucket, a mower, thresher or auger, for example. An accessory tool such as a mower can also be attached to the rear of the vehicle.

Work vehicle

A portable radiotelephone (100) has a signal quality indicator (110) disposed in a location on an outer surface of a housing thereof so that the indicator is within a peripheral view of the user when an earpiece (210) of the radiotelephone is held to a user's ear. In the peripheral vision of the user, the signal quality indicator (110) indicates a quality of the signal received by receiver (130) of the portable radiotelephone handset.

Radiotelephone with user perceivable visual signal quality indicator

A radio telephone interface apparatus for speed dialing any of a plurality of stored sequences of digits forming telephone numbers. Pre-stored telephone numbers are stored in an electronic memory. Actuation of switches permits either sequential access to each of the stored telephone numbers or direct, nonsequential access to a desired set of stored telephone numbers. When the telephone numbers are sequentially access, mneumonic information associated with each one of the telephone numbers is provided to a voice synthesizer to provide an aural indication of the telephone numbers stored within individual ones of the directory locations.

Radio telephone interface apparatus for speed-dialing of telephone

Mobiletelephone control module

The process of the present invention alerts a radiotelephone user when the portable is not connected to the power booster/antenna extender system. By checking for a connect signal from the radiotelephone, the system knows the portable is missing and alerts the user, thus enabling the user to install the portable before driving off without it.
