Description

  The present invention relates to a portable electronic device cover. Specifically, the portable electronic device can be stored in a state where it can be connected to a peripheral device, and the portable electronic device can be protected from damage due to dropping or the like while preventing scratch marks on the display portion of the portable electronic device. It is a cover.

  All of these portable electronic devices are becoming smaller and lighter, and only necessary functions can be taken out and carried. Specifically, a so-called two-in-one portable electronic device in which a tablet terminal and a keyboard can be separated, and when the user goes out, the portable electronic device is capable of carrying only a tablet terminal having a display unit by removing an input device such as a keyboard. Is commercially available.

  However, when the tablet terminal is carried, it may be inadvertently dropped and damaged, or the display part may be scratched.

  Therefore, as shown in Patent Document 1, a tablet terminal holder device capable of protecting a portable electronic device from an impact caused by dropping or the like has been devised. Specifically, pads are fixed to the four corners of the tablet terminal to prevent damage due to dropping.

  Further, as shown in Patent Document 2, a protective cover for a tablet terminal that covers the entire tablet terminal has been devised in order to prevent the display portion from being scratched. Specifically, a display surface protection unit that protects the display unit of the tablet terminal and a back surface protection unit that protects the back surface of the tablet terminal are connected by a connection unit.

Patent No. 5820505 Patent No. 6025545

  However, in the tablet terminal holder device described in Patent Document 1, the pad fixed to the corner is in close contact with the corner of the tablet terminal, and the impact received by the pad by dropping is directly transmitted to the tablet terminal. Not only can the tablet terminal be sufficiently prevented from being damaged, but also the display part of the tablet terminal is always exposed, and thus does not prevent scratch marks on the display part.

  Furthermore, in the tablet terminal protective cover described in Patent Document 2, it is possible to prevent the display surface protection unit from scratching the display unit, but the terminal holding unit that holds the tablet terminal is in close contact with the corners of the tablet terminal. In addition, since the impact received by the terminal holding unit due to the drop is directly transmitted to the tablet terminal, the tablet terminal cannot be sufficiently prevented from being damaged as in the technique of Patent Document 1 described above.

  Therefore, both the tablet terminal holder device described in Patent Document 1 and the tablet terminal protective cover described in Patent Document 2 contribute to preventing damage to the tablet terminal body and preventing scratches on the display unit. is not.

  Moreover, the protective cover of the tablet terminal described in Patent Document 2 is assumed to be covered when the tablet terminal is carried. When connecting the tablet terminal to a peripheral device indoors, it must be removed from the protective cover one by one. Not only is it time-consuming, but there is a possibility of damage due to inadvertent dropping.

  The present invention has been devised in view of the above points, and stores a portable electronic device in a state in which the portable electronic device can be connected to a peripheral device, and prevents a scratch mark from being generated on the display unit of the portable electronic device. An object of the present invention is to provide a portable electronic device cover capable of protecting an electronic device from damage caused by dropping.

  In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the portable electronic device cover of the present invention is a contact plate that contacts the housing of the mobile electronic device with a display unit, and is disposed on the opposite side of the corresponding plate, and between the contact plates. A gap for accommodating the portable electronic device is formed, and a frame body having a window portion opened outwardly is stretched. The frame is stretched on the window portion and covers the display portion of the portable electronic device in the accommodated state. Sheet body, a connection part for connecting an external peripheral device to the stored portable electronic device, and extending outward from the outer periphery of the frame body. A storage portion having a protective structure for protecting the portable electronic device in the storage state, a substrate that is attached to a surface of the contact plate opposite to the frame body side on which the frame body is provided, and the substrate A main body having a lid that is continuously connected to bend and covers or opens the display. Equipped with a.

  Here, the storage unit for storing the portable electronic device with the display unit, the substrate that is attached to the surface of the backing plate opposite to the frame side on which the frame is provided, and the substrate is bendably connected to the substrate, The main body having a lid that covers or opens the display unit is covered with a lid that is connected to the portable electronic device in the storage unit so as to be able to bend via the substrate. It can be protected by being wrapped in the body, and the lid functions as a relaxation material so that the impact caused by dropping is not directly transmitted to the portable electronic device, and damage to the portable electronic device can be sufficiently prevented. In particular, since the display unit can be covered with a lid as necessary, it is possible to reliably suppress the occurrence of scratch marks on the display unit as compared with the case where the display unit is always exposed.

  Also, a contact plate that contacts the housing of the mobile electronic device with a display unit, and a frame that is disposed on the opposite side of the contact plate and that has a gap for housing the mobile electronic device between the contact plate and Thus, the portable electronic device can be accommodated using the gap between the backing plate and the frame.

  And, by the protective structure that extends outward from the outer peripheral edge of the frame body and protects the mobile electronic device in the stored state, even when the mobile electronic device is dropped, the winding of the cover body is unwound Even when the relaxation effect cannot be obtained, the relaxation effect due to the protective structure acts, and the impact due to the drop is hardly transmitted directly to the portable electronic device, so that the portable electronic device can be reliably prevented from being damaged.

  Furthermore, the display part is covered as it is by a frame body having an open window part that opens outward, and a sheet body that is stretched over the window part of the frame body and covers the display part of the portable electronic device in the housed state. Thus, it is possible to reliably prevent the display portion from being scratched when the portable electronic device is dropped or operated. In addition, it is not necessary to attach a protective seal to the display unit for each portable electronic device, and the work can be reduced by omitting the application work, and the cost is reduced because no seal is required. .

  In addition, the portable electronic device is formed on the predetermined outer peripheral side surface of the frame body, and the portable electronic device cover is attached to the portable electronic device cover by connecting the external peripheral device to the portable electronic device in the housed state through the connection portion. In the stored state, it can be connected to a peripheral device to the portable electronic device, and it is not necessary to remove the portable electronic device cover from the portable electronic device every time it is connected to the peripheral device. Can be reduced.

  In addition, the storage unit can be integrated with the main body through the substrate by the substrate on the side opposite to the frame body side on which the frame body is provided, and the component of the portable electronic device cover. By reducing the number, it is possible to reduce component costs and improve maintainability.

  The lid body connected to the substrate so as to be bendable prevents the lid body from being detached from the substrate, and the lid body is arranged at various angles with respect to the storage portion, so that the attitude of the portable electronic device cover As a result, the versatility of the portable electronic device cover can be further improved.

  In addition, the entire portable electronic device is enclosed and protected by a lid that is connected to the substrate so as to be bent and covers or opens the display, and the display of the portable electronic device is covered or opened. It can be easily hidden or visually recognized only by operation, the lid can perform multiple functions, reduce the number of parts of the portable electronic device cover, reduce the part cost and improve the maintainability Can be planned.

  In addition, when the connecting portion has a drop-off preventing structure for preventing the stored portable electronic device from dropping and a communication maintaining structure for maintaining the communication state between the stored portable electronic device and the peripheral device, While preventing the electronic device from dropping out of the storage unit, it is possible to connect to the peripheral device and maintain the communication state.

  In addition, when the drop-off preventing structure has a belt-shaped connecting member that extends from the outer peripheral edge of the frame body toward the backing plate and can come into contact with the outer peripheral side surface of the stored portable electronic device, a simple configuration Therefore, it is possible to form a drop-off prevention structure, reduce the number of parts of the portable electronic device cover, reduce the part cost, and improve the maintainability.

  In addition, the communication maintenance structure is formed with a guide hole that is drilled in the connecting member and that is inserted into the communication terminal between the stored portable electronic device and the peripheral device to guide and hold the portable electronic device or peripheral device. In this case, the portable electronic device and the peripheral device can be easily electrically connected between the portable electronic device and the peripheral device by passing the communication terminal between the portable electronic device and the peripheral device through the guide hole. This eliminates the need to connect to the mobile electronic device, eliminates the need for an extension cable, facilitates the operation of connecting peripheral devices to portable electronic devices, reduces the workload, reduces the number of components, and reduces costs. Reduction can be achieved.

  In addition, when the connection portion has a separation distance adjuster structure capable of adjusting the separation distance on the connection portion side between the facing plate and the frame, the size of the gap for storing the portable electronic device is freely adjusted. It is possible to oppose portable electronic devices of various thicknesses, and the versatility of the portable electronic device cover can be improved.

  Further, when the separation distance adjustment structure has a fixed portion fixed to one of the contact plate or the frame body and a detachable engagement portion on either one of the contact plate or the frame body, Alternatively, it is possible to easily adjust the separation distance by simply changing the position where it adheres to one of the frames, eliminating the need for a complicated configuration in the separation distance adjustment structure, reducing the number of parts, and reducing costs. .

  In addition, when the protective structure has an overhanging portion in which the outer peripheral edge of the backing plate protrudes outward from the outer peripheral edge of the frame body as viewed from the frame body side, the overhanging portion functions as a relaxation material, It becomes difficult for the impact to be directly transmitted to the portable electronic device, and damage to the portable electronic device can be sufficiently prevented.

  In addition, when the protective structure has a protruding piece that is provided at the corner of the frame body as viewed from the frame body and protrudes outward from the outer peripheral edge of the frame body, the protruding piece of the frame body functions as a relaxation material. However, it is difficult for the impact caused by the drop to be directly transmitted to the portable electronic device, and the portable electronic device can be sufficiently prevented from being damaged.

  Further, when the protruding piece is formed so that the protruding end of the protruding piece substantially overlaps at least partly with the outer peripheral edge of the backing plate when viewed from the frame body side, for example, the outer peripheral edge of the backing plate is a relaxation of the portable electronic device. When functioning as a material, the projecting piece of the frame can also function as a relaxation material, making it difficult for the impact caused by dropping to be transmitted to the mobile electronic device, and further preventing damage to the mobile electronic device. it can.

  Further, when the outer peripheral edge of the projecting piece is arcuate, the impact caused by dropping can be received by a wide portion of the outer peripheral edge of the projecting piece, and damage to the portable electronic device can be further sufficiently prevented.

  In addition, when the frame and the sheet are joined in a watertight manner, water droplets adhering to the surface of the sheet pass through between the frame and the sheet, causing damage such as malfunction of the mobile electronic device due to getting wet. Can be prevented. In particular, when the sheet body and the frame body are made of a waterproof material, the display section can be completely protected by the frame body and the sheet body even if splashing or the like is applied to the display section of the portable electronic device. .

  The portable electronic device cover according to the present invention (hereinafter simply referred to as “cover”) accommodates the portable electronic device in a state where it can be connected to a peripheral device, and prevents the display of the portable electronic device from being scratched. On the other hand, portable electronic devices can be protected from damage caused by dropping.

  Hereinafter, the portable electronic device cover of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 1 to FIG. 7 for understanding of the present invention.

  As shown in FIG. 1, a cover A, which is an example of a portable electronic device cover, includes a storage unit 1 that stores a tablet terminal T, which is an example of a portable electronic device, and a length in the longitudinal direction of about 50 cm. And a main body 2 formed in a plate-like substantially rectangular shape having a length of about 32 cm. A substrate 20 is provided at one end in the longitudinal direction of the main body 2, and the substrate 20 is attached to the storage unit 1.

  The storage unit 1 is provided on the left side of the cover A in FIG. 1, and the storage unit 1 is wound around the storage unit 1 so as to be folded in the vicinity of the approximate center in the longitudinal direction. As shown in FIG. 3, the cover A is approximately half the size in the longitudinal direction.

  In addition, the storage unit 1 includes a contact plate 10 that contacts the housing of the tablet terminal T with the display unit T1 and holds the tablet terminal T in the storage unit 1, and a frame disposed on the opposite side of the contact plate 10. The tablet terminal T is accommodated between the frame 11 and the backing plate 10. The frame body 11 is provided around the outer periphery of the display unit T1 of the tablet terminal T in the housed state.

  The backing plate 10 of this embodiment has a substantially rectangular shape with a length of about 31 cm in the vertical direction and a length of about 20 cm in the horizontal direction in FIG. The frame 11 is formed slightly smaller than the backing plate 10 and has a longitudinal length of about 30 cm and a lateral length of about 19 cm, and is opposed to the backing plate 10 (front side in FIG. 1). ), The protruding portion 10a that is the outer peripheral edge of the backing plate 10 is formed so as to protrude outward from the outer peripheral edge of the frame 11.

  Furthermore, the contact plate 10 has a pair of opposed long sides 100 and 101 and a pair of opposed short sides 102 and 103. In addition, since the core plate (not shown) is incorporated inside the backing plate 10, it is not easily bent and can sufficiently hold the stored tablet terminal T.

  Further, as will be described later, the long side 101 of the contact plate 10 is provided on the long side 101 so as not to block the sound hole 136 for releasing the sound of the speaker (not shown) of the tablet terminal T to the outside of the cover A. An opening 109 having a width of about 3 cm and a length of about 19 cm is formed.

  And as shown in FIG. 6, the tablet terminal T can be inserted and accommodated in the clearance gap 12 formed by the pad 10 and the frame 11 being spaced apart by a fixed distance.

  The frame 11 has a pair of opposing long sides 110 and 111, a pair of opposing short sides 112 and 113, a corner 116a where the long side 110 and the short side 112 intersect, and a long side 110 and the short side 113 intersecting. A corner 116b, a corner 116c where the long side 111 and the short side 113 intersect, and a corner 116d where the long side 111 and the short side 112 intersect are provided.

  When viewed from the opposite side, the long side 100 of the abutting plate 10 projects outwardly by about 5 mm from the long side 110, and similarly, the abutting plate against the short side 112 of the frame 11. Ten short sides 102 are projected outward by about 5 mm, and a short side 103 of the contact plate 10 is projected outward by about 5 mm with respect to the short side 113 of the frame 11. Note that the long side 111 of the frame 11 is in a position overlapping the long side 101 of the backing plate 10 when viewed from the opposite side.

  That is, the backing plate 10 is formed to be slightly larger than the frame body 11 and is provided with an overhanging portion 10a that is an example of an overhanging portion. Further, the frame plate 11 is disposed at a position closer to the long side 101 than the center of the backing plate 10. Thereby, even if an impact due to dropping or the like is applied to the cover A in which the tablet terminal T is stored, the impact is not directly transmitted to the tablet terminal T, but the long side 100 and the short sides 102 and 103 of the backing plate 10 are damaged. Thus, the overhang | projection part 10a provided in the outer periphery of the holding | maintenance part 10 functions as a mitigation material, and can prevent the tablet terminal T from being damaged.

  Further, five strip-shaped coupling pieces 114 a to 114 e having a predetermined width are extended from the long sides 110 and 111 and the short sides 112 and 113 corresponding to the outer peripheral edge of the frame 11 toward the backing plate 10. At the same time, the extended ends 115 a to 115 e of the coupling pieces 114 a to 114 e are fixed to the contact plate 10. As a result, the frame plate 11 is fixed to the backing plate 10 and the tablet terminal T is securely stored in the storage unit 1.

  Specifically, the coupling piece 114 a is continuously extended from the vicinity of the center of the short side 112 of the frame body 11 to the outside, and the extending end 115 a is fixed to the vicinity of the short side 102 of the backing plate 10. Then, the coupling piece 114 a is brought into contact with the outer peripheral side surface of the tablet terminal T to prevent the tablet terminal T from falling off from the short side 112 side of the frame body 11.

  Similarly, the coupling piece 114b is continuously extended from a part near the corner portion 116a to the outside at the long side 110 of the frame body 11, and the extending end 115b is in the vicinity of the long side 100 of the protection plate 10. It is fixed to. The coupling piece 114 c is continuously extended outward from a part near the corner 116 b of the long side 110 of the frame body 11, and the extension end 115 c is fixed to the vicinity of the long side 100 of the backing plate 10. Yes. Then, the coupling pieces 114b and 114c are brought into contact with the outer peripheral side surface of the tablet terminal T to prevent the tablet terminal T from falling off from the long side 110 side of the frame body 11.

  Similarly, the coupling piece 114d is continuously extended outward from a part near the corner portion 116b at the short side 113 of the frame body 11, and its extending end 115d is in the vicinity of the short side 103 of the backing plate 10. It is fixed to. The coupling piece 114e is continuously extended outward from a part near the corner 116c at the short side 113 of the frame body 11, and its extending end 115e is fixed to the vicinity of the short side 103 of the backing plate 10. Yes. The coupling pieces 114 d and 114 e are brought into contact with the outer peripheral side surface of the tablet terminal T to prevent the tablet terminal T from falling off from the short side 113 side of the frame 11.

  In addition, since the coupling pieces 114a to 114e described above are formed of a flexible material, the shape of the coupling pieces 114a to 114e is determined according to the thickness of the tablet terminal T stored in the storage unit 1. The tablet terminal T of various thickness can be accommodated by changing.

  Furthermore, since the long side 111 of the frame body 11 is not provided with the above-mentioned coupling pieces 114a to 114e, the gap 12 between the frame body 11 on the long side 111 side and the backing plate 10 is opened to make the tablet from the outside. The terminal T can be inserted and stored, and conversely, the tablet terminal T can be taken out from the same gap 12.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 4 (d), the hanging curtain 114f is continuously extended to the outside part of the short side 113 of the frame 11, and the side surface of the tablet terminal T to be stored is The two USB (registered trademark) ports C3 and C4 and the connector C5 of the memory card provided on the side surface can be covered. As a result, it is possible to reduce failures caused by dust or the like entering the USB (registered trademark) ports C3 and C4 and the memory card C5.

  Further, in order to prevent the tablet terminal T from falling off from the storage unit 1, the locking bands 13 a and 13 b are also formed as a band-shaped connecting member between the long side 111 of the frame 11 and the long side 101 of the backing plate 10. It is erected. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 5, one end 130a, 130b of the locking band 13a, 13b is fixed to the long side 111 of the frame 11 as a fixing portion, while the other end 131a of the locking band 13a, 13b, 131b is affixed with detachable Magic Tape (registered trademark) male sides 132a and 132b as locking portions.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the back surface 104 of the backing plate 10 is provided with female sides 133a and 133b that engage with the male sides 132a and 132b. In use, the other ends 131a and 131b of the locking bands 13a and 13b are engaged with the female sides 133a and 133b provided on the back surface 104 of the backing plate 10 by engaging the male sides 132a and 132b. , 13b can be installed between the backing plate 10 and the frame 11, and the tablet terminals T can be extended to the length of the frame 11 so that the locking bands 13a, 13b are brought into contact with the outer peripheral side surface of the tablet terminal T. It is possible to prevent falling off from the side 111 side.

  Further, such locking bands 13a and 13b can also function as a separation distance adjusting mechanism capable of adjusting the separation distance on the connection portion side between the backing plate 10 and the frame body 11. That is, by changing the engagement position where the male sides 132a and 132b provided on the locking bands 13a and 13b are engaged with the female sides 133a and 133b of the back surface 104 of the backing plate 10, the above-mentioned separation distance of the gap 12 is changed. It can be freely adjusted, can be applied to portable electronic devices of various thicknesses, and the versatility of the portable electronic device cover can be improved.

  Such a separation distance adjusting mechanism has a simple configuration having only one end 130a, 130b corresponding to the fixing portion and the other end 131a, 131b corresponding to the locking portion, and facilitates the separation distance as described above. Therefore, a complicated configuration is not required for the separation distance adjusting mechanism, and the number of parts can be reduced, thereby reducing the cost.

  In addition, since the locking bands 13 a and 13 b are installed on the backing plate 10 and the frame body 11, the tablet terminal T stored in the storage unit 1 can be further prevented from falling off from the storage unit 1.

  In other words, the tablet terminal T stored in the storage unit 1 has a locking band 13a as a drop-off preventing structure that prevents the tablet terminal T in the stored state from dropping in addition to the coupling pieces 114a to 114e provided in the frame 11. By 13b, the state accommodated in the accommodating part 1 is maintained, without removing from the frame 11.

  Further, a terminal hole 134, which is an example of a guide hole, is formed in the locking band 13a. The terminal hole 134 is an example of a guide hole for connecting a peripheral device of the tablet terminal T and exposing a terminal capable of signal communication. . The terminal hole 134 in this embodiment is a hole for an HDMI (registered trademark) terminal which is a communication terminal, and the HDMI (registered) is kept in a state where the tablet terminal T is stored in the storage unit 1 of the cover A. The trademark terminal can be inserted into the terminal hole 134 and led to a peripheral device such as a cradle to be connected and held. As a result, since a communication maintenance structure for maintaining the communication state between the tablet terminal T in the stored state and the peripheral device is configured, the user can view the video on the tablet terminal T or an external monitor without removing the cover A. can do.

  In addition, the locking bands 13a and 13b are provided with a plurality of sound passage holes 135 for passing sound from a speaker (not shown) provided on the back side of the tablet terminal T. Since the sound passage hole 135 has a shape corresponding to an audio hole 136 described later, the tablet terminal T is stored in the storage portion 1 and the locking bands 13a and 13b are installed in the tablet. The sound output from the speaker (not shown) of the terminal T can be transmitted through the sound hole 135 and transmitted from the sound hole 136 provided in the main body 2, thereby reducing the work load.

  Further, the long side 111 of the frame 11 provided with the locking bands 13a and 13b is externally connected to the tablet terminal T while the tablet terminal T is inserted into the gap 12 as shown in FIG. A connecting portion 14 is provided which can be connected to peripheral devices such as a keyboard (not shown) and a cradle (not shown).

  As shown in FIGS. 4 (a) and 5, the connecting portion 14 is formed between the locking bands 13a and 13b, and the locking band 13a and the corner portion 116c, and a terminal connection that can connect the communication terminal. A path 140, provided between the locking band 13a and the locking band 13b, and connected to the terminal connection path 141 to which the communication terminal can be connected, and provided between the locking band 13b and the corner 116d to connect the communication terminal. It consists of possible terminal connections 142.

  In this embodiment, the keyboard connection terminal C1 is exposed from the terminal connection path 141, and the DC connector C2 is exposed from the terminal connection portion 140, and both can be connected to terminals of corresponding peripheral devices. In addition, although the specific connector is not described in the terminal connection path 142, a required terminal can be exposed according to the model of a tablet terminal.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 6, corners 116 a and 116 b of the frame body 11 are provided with protruding pieces 117 a and 117 b that protrude outward from the frame body 11. As shown in FIG. 5, the projecting ends 118 a and 118 b of the projecting pieces 117 a and 117 b are seen from the frame body side at the intersection 105 where the long side 100 and the short side 102 intersect, and the long side 100 and the short side 103, respectively. Are substantially overlapped with the intersection 106 where the two intersect. In addition, the case where it sees from the frame body side means the case where it sees from the direction of the axis line orthogonal to the contact plate 10.

  That is, the protruding pieces 117 a and 117 b are formed so as to protrude outward from the outer peripheral edge of the frame body 11, and the protruding ends substantially overlap at least partially with the outer peripheral edge of the backing plate 10. Thereby, even if an impact due to dropping or the like is applied to the cover A in which the tablet terminal T is stored, the impact is not directly transmitted to the tablet terminal T, but the projecting pieces 117a and 117b are damaged and the projecting pieces 117a and 117b are damaged. Functions as a relaxation material and can prevent the tablet terminal T from being damaged.

  In particular, as in the present embodiment, the protruding portion 10a of the backing plate 10 is used as a relaxation material that extends outward from the outer periphery of the tablet terminal T in the housed state and protects the outer periphery. In addition, when the projecting pieces 117a and 117b are made to function, the impact due to the drop is more difficult to be transmitted to the tablet terminal T, and the tablet terminal T can be further prevented from being damaged.

  Furthermore, when the projecting pieces 117a and 117b are formed in an arc shape when viewed from the frame side as in the present embodiment, the impact caused by dropping can be received by a wide portion of the outer peripheral edge of the projecting pieces 117a and 117b. The protrusions 117a and 117b are more likely to be damaged, and the tablet terminal T can be more effectively prevented from being damaged.

  In addition, as described above, since the contact plate 10 and the frame 11 are separated from each other by a certain distance, as shown in FIG. 6, the impact relaxation space in which the protruding pieces 117a and 117b can be folded and tilted. 124 can be formed. As a result, when an impact of a certain level or more is applied to the overhanging portion 10a and the protruding pieces 117a and 117b, the overhanging portion 10a and the protruding pieces 117a and 117b are easily bent and tilted, so that the overhanging portion 10a and the protruding portion The function of the pieces 117a and 117b as a relaxation material can be sufficiently exerted, and damage to the tablet terminal T can be further prevented.

  Further, a transparent protective sheet 15, which is an example of a sheet body, is stretched on the window portion 11 a of the frame body 11.
