In order to make the objects and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the present invention will be further described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention.

As shown in fig. 1 to 3, the protective case 1 for a portable electronic product of the present invention includes a main body 21 and a film layer 11. The body 21 is typically made of plastic. The utility model discloses in, protective housing 1 adopts the mould internal mold insert to mould plastics (IML) integrated into one piece, and rete 11 is attached to the surface of main part 21 integratively. The main body 21 forms a receiving cavity for receiving and protecting the portable electronic product.

Specifically, the body 21 has a bottom wall 22 and a side wall 23 extending from the periphery of the bottom wall 22. The bottom wall 22 and the side wall 23 together enclose a receiving cavity for receiving and protecting the portable electronic product. The bottom wall 22 has opposite inner and outer surfaces, the inner surface facing the receiving cavity. In the present embodiment, the side wall 23 is non-closed in the circumferential direction, and includes a straight first side wall 231 and a second side wall 232 extending substantially in a U shape in the circumferential direction. The first side wall 231 is located at the open end of the second side wall 232, but spaced from the open end of the second side wall 232, thereby forming two slots 25, preferably, the two slots 25 are symmetrically located at both ends of the first side wall 231, respectively. The bottom wall 22 has two first protrusions 24 on both sides of the other end opposite to the open end, and the two first protrusions 24 are formed to be recessed outward from both pairs of sides of the bottom wall 22. In this embodiment, the two first protrusions 24 are shaped to fit the user's hand, and preferably, the two first protrusions 24 are configured to the shape of the gamepad to improve the user's experience of use.

The first convex portion 24 may be formed as a hollow structure, and the weight of the protective case 1 may be reduced. In the present embodiment, a support portion 27 is further disposed inside the first protrusion 24 to enhance the support of the portable electronic product and improve the stability of the fixing of the portable electronic product. The top of the support portion 27 is flush with the inner surface of the bottom wall 22. In the present embodiment, the supporting portion 27 is plural, and the plural supporting portions 27 in each first protrusion 24 may be arranged in parallel and/or symmetrically with each other with respect to the bottom wall 22.

In addition, the main body 21 is further provided with an opening 26 for exposing a key, a charging port, a card slot and the like of the portable electronic product, thereby facilitating the operation of a user. Preferably, the shape and position of the opening 26 are adapted to the shape and position of a key, a charging port, a card slot, etc. of the portable electronic product. In the present embodiment, there are a plurality of openings 26, and a plurality of openings 26 are provided on each of the side wall 23 and the bottom wall 22.

Referring to fig. 3, the film layer 11 is integrally formed on the outer surface of the body 21 using in-mold insert injection. The film layer 11 is used to decorate the protective case 1. In this embodiment, the film layer 11 is made of a material with a self-repairing function. Preferably, the surface of the film layer 11 is covered with a coating. The film 11 may also be formed by other suitable processes.

Fig. 6 further shows the structure of the membrane layer 11. Specifically, the film layer 11 includes a base layer 110, a pattern layer 111 attached to the base layer 110, and a protective layer 112 covering the pattern layer 111. The pattern layer 111 may be formed by electroplating and deplating, and the printing process is attached to the base layer 110, so as to obtain the metal film layer 11, thereby improving the user experience. In some embodiments, a layer having a visual effect such as rose gold may be plated on the base layer 110 of the film layer 11 and then deplated to obtain the desired metallic pattern or text, alternatively or additionally, the desired pattern or text may be printed on the base layer 110. Preferably, the pattern printed on the base layer 110 may be a four-color printed marble pattern. The protection layer 112 is a hardened transparent film, which is attached to the pattern layer 111 to protect the pattern layer 111 and prevent the base layer 110 from being damaged during punching.

The specific process for forming the film layer 11 and the protective shell 1 may be cutting the roll-shaped film into a desired shape, forming a desired pattern or text on one surface of the film, punching a positioning hole after attaching a protective film on the surface of the film, thermoforming the film into a desired shape, and cutting off the waste material of the formed three-dimensional film to form the desired film layer 11. And placing the formed film layer 11 in a mold to perform in-mold injection molding and integral molding with thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer (TPU) to obtain the protective shell 1.

The film 11 is closely adhered to the surface of the body 21, and thus, the molded film 11 has a shape substantially matching the surface of the body 21. In the present embodiment, the film 11 includes a base 12, a first side 131 and a second side 132 corresponding to the bottom wall 22, the first side 231 and the second side 232 of the body 21, respectively. The film 11 also has a second protrusion 14 corresponding to the first protrusion 24 of the body 21. However, the notches 17 are provided on the first and second sides 131, 132 of the film 11, corresponding to the openings 26 on the side walls 23 of the body 21, rather than openings, to simplify the processing of the film 11. It will be appreciated that in other embodiments, the film 11 may be provided with openings in corresponding locations that match the shape and size of the openings 26 of the body 21.

As shown in fig. 4 and 5, a portable electronic product (e.g., a handheld portable game machine) using the protective case 1 of the present invention may include a main body 101, a left manipulator 102 and a right manipulator 103 detachably mounted at both sides of the main body 101. As is known, the left manipulator 102 and the right manipulator 103 are slidably mounted on both sides of the main body 101. For this reason, the two slots 25 of the protective case 1 in the present embodiment correspond to the left manipulator 102 and the right manipulator 103, respectively, to facilitate mounting and dismounting of the respective manipulators. Moreover, the provision of the slot 25 also facilitates the extension of the legs 104 of each manipulator and the exposure of the keys located on the legs 104 for easy manipulation by the user.

Fig. 7 shows a protective casing 1' according to another embodiment of the invention, which differs from the first embodiment in that: the film layer 11 has different pattern layers. Specifically, in the present embodiment, the film layer 11 of the protective shell 1' is subjected to, for example, electroplating and deplating to obtain a plurality of textures 113. In the embodiment, the texture 113 is a linear stripe texture, and the plurality of linear stripe textures are staggered to form a grid-shaped gold plating effect, so as to obtain the protective case 1' with good appearance and user experience. Preferably, further patterns are also printed on the base layer 110, which at least partially fill the area 114 enclosed by the texture 113.
