Description

  The present invention relates to a case of a flat plate type electronic reader (reader), and particularly to a case in which a rotatable cover supports the flat plate type electronic reader and puts it into use.

  In recent years, the development of portable electronic devices has been extremely rapid. For example, products such as mobile phones, notebook computers, flat-plate computers or flat-plate electronic readers (electronic book readers and electronic dictionaries) are considerably diversified. Yes. Taking a flat-plate electronic reader as an example, the interface is mainly a large-area touch-controlled screen, so that when it is not in use, the touch-controlled screen is generally protected outside the product to prevent damage to the touch-controlled screen. A case is attached. In addition, these protective cases are provided with a support function, and a flat-plate electronic reader can be supported on a table at a certain inclination angle for convenient viewing by the user. The case with the function is not designed to be changed to the vertical or horizontal direction according to the flat-plate type electronic reader, and since the supporting function can be used only in one fixed direction, it is not ideal for operation. There is a need for advanced improvements.

  Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a case that has a protection and support function for a flat-plate electronic reader, and at the same time supports the flat-plate electronic reader according to the direction of use of the flat-plate electronic reader.

  Therefore, a flat type electronic reader case according to the present invention includes a first cover, a second cover, and a connecting unit that couples the first cover and the second cover, which are used to place the flat type electronic reader. The articulating unit includes a first end pivotally connected to the first cover and a second end joined to the second cover. The first cover can be rotated relative to the articulated unit by a first end and the second cover can be folded relative to the articulated unit by a second end. The second cover has a recess. The first cover is formed with a first edge and a second edge that are adjacent but not collinear, and the first edge or the second edge can be selectively fitted into the recess by turning the first cover, Thereby, the first cover is supported by the articulating unit and stands on the second cover at a desired angle.

FIG. 4 is an application diagram of a flat electronic reader case according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 4 is an external intention diagram seen from another angle in FIG. 3. FIG. 4 is an application diagram of a flat electronic reader case according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 6 is an external appearance view seen from another angle in FIG. 5.

  The above and other technical contents, features and functions of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the flat electronic reader case of the present invention includes a first cover 1, a second cover 2, and a connecting unit 3 that couples the first cover 1 and the second cover 2.

  The first cover 1 is formed in an appropriate size in accordance with the area and dimensions of the flat plate electronic reader 4, and a plurality of coupling portions 11 used to localize the flat plate electronic reader 4 are provided at the edge portions. . Since the structure of the coupling part 11 is not a main part of the present invention, the coupling part 11 is not limited to the system shown in the drawings, and various coupling parts 11 can be designed according to actual needs. The flat plate electronic reader 4 and the first cover 1 are fixed to each other. Since the general flat type electronic reader 4 is generally rectangular, the first cover 1 is formed with a first edge 101 and a second edge 102 that are adjacent to each other but are not collinear. In this embodiment, the first edge 101 is a short edge and the second edge 102 is a long edge, but if the flat plate electronic reader 4 is square or other suitable shape, the first edge The lengths of the 101 and the second edge 102 are changed accordingly.

  The second cover 2 corresponds to the size of the first cover 1, and in a state in which the flat electronic reader 4 is accommodated, it is formed so as to cover another surface of the flat electronic reader 4 and perform a protective action. The A concave portion 21 is provided on the inner surface of the second cover 2. In the present embodiment, the recessed portion 21 is a linear groove, and a plurality of the recessed portions 21 may be provided. In the illustrated case, the recessed portions 21 are a plurality of recessed grooves that are parallel to each other, and the operation thereof will be described later.

  The connecting unit 3 includes a first end portion 31 and a second end portion 32. The first end portion 31 forms a pivotal structure with the first cover 1 by a method of brazing a turning button, and a second end portion. 32 is joined to the second cover 2 with a foldable edge, whereby the first cover 1 can be rotated relative to the articulating unit via the pivotal structure of the first end 31, and the second cover 2 The two end portions 32 can be bent relative to the connecting unit 3.

  As shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, when the flat-type electronic reader 4 is placed in a vertical configuration and viewed in use, the first cover 101 is turned to turn the first edge 101 downward. Select and fit into the recess 21. In this case, the first cover 1 is supported by the connecting unit 3 and stands on the second cover 2 with a certain inclination angle. In addition, when the recess 21 having a different first edge 101 of the first cover 1 is selected and fitted, the inclination angle of the first cover 1 relative to the second cover 2 can be adjusted.

  As shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, when the flat-type electronic reader 4 is placed in the horizontal direction for browsing, the first cover 1 is turned to select a method in which the second edge 102 faces downward, and the recess 21 Fit inside. In this case, the first cover 1 is supported by the connecting unit 3 and stands on the second cover 2 with a certain inclination angle. As in the case of the vertical direction, when the recessed portion 21 having a different second edge 102 of the first cover 1 is selected and fitted, the inclination angle of the first cover 1 relative to the second cover 2 is adjusted thereby. can do.

  With the above-described design, the present invention can adjust the supporting state of the flat electronic reader 4 according to the viewing state in the vertical or horizontal direction, and has a protective function when not in use, and has a convenient purpose of use. Achieved.

  The above description is only the optimum embodiment of the present invention, and it does not limit the scope of the present invention, but it is a simple equivalent effect performed based on the scope of the claims and the description of the present invention. All changes and modifications should be within the scope of the present invention.
