Attachable handheld fidget spinner

[0001] The present disclosure generally relates to a fidget spinner and the attachment feature that is capable of attaching the fidget spinner to another subject without interfering with its stability and bearing structure.

[0002] Currently, there are various shapes and types of fidget spinners with low sustainability and stability to have consistent long last spinning cycle on its own. These low stability fidget spinners have even harder time to maintain stability when the fidget spinners are attaching to another object. The current way of attaching mechanism either prevents a user from holding and using the fidget spinner with fingers or changes the how the fidget spinner spins and produces a different or more unstable spinning. A conventional fidget spinner is known in the art to be played by having one finger on top and one finger on the bottom of the fidget spinner holding on the top plate and the bottom plate. In one scenario, the fidget spinner is designed to include a mounting member together with a fidget spinner. To compensate for having a mounting member or a mounting member structure, the fidget spinner is designed to have low stability because of the shape of the mounting member and the bearing structure and its associated stability structure. Either top or bottom of the fidget spinner is connected to a mounting component preventing a user from holding the fidget spinner directly. The mounting member is capable to attach another object. The spinning mechanism of the fidget spinner is altered after the mounting member attaches to the object. The mounting member or the object attached comprises additional axel allowing the fidget spinner to take the additional axel as the new bearing for rotation, which tends to be less stable and less sustainable than the fidget spinner without the mounting member.

[0003] In other scenario, the mounting member is a separate adapter independent of the fidget spinner or the object to be attached. This mounting adapter includes a new axel or a bearing structure. Once attached, the fidget spinner will rest and spin on the new axel or the bearing structure. With the new structure attached, the fidget spinner's spinning speed and stability are also changed and typically for decrease functionality. The new bearing structure does not match the fidget spinner as closely as the original bearing system. The attached fidget spinner last shorter spinning cycle when similar force is applied to it.

[0004] The use of the fidget spinner is thus polarized. A user is left to choose sacrificing the stability of the fidget spinner or sacrificing the portability of the fidget spinner. Accordingly, there exists a need for an attachable handheld fidget spinner that allows a user to enjoy the traditional fidget spinner play with two fingers on the top and bottom of the fidget spinner and attach the fidget spinner when desired without sacrificing the stability and the spinning cycles. This disclosure describes an improvement over these prior technologies.

In one embodiment, the user aligns the outer ring of the spinner with the outer groove of the base, and then pushes the outer ring into the outer groove. These features allow the user to align the spinner and the base in any orientation as there is no specific key-hole structure that requires a user to orient the spinner or the base in certain arrangement. The user only needs to place the spinner in the middle of the base. The spinner does not need an additional component to attach to the base.

[0041] In some embodiments, the outer ring of the spinner comprises a boss or a protrusion. The depth of the protrusion extends inwardly toward the holding surface.
