4 is a sectional view taken along the line I-I in Fig.

Hereinafter, a protective case for a portable terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 to 3, a protective case 10 for a portable terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a case body 20 surrounding a backside opposite to the display panel 110 of the portable terminal 100, A transparent cover 30 attached to the display panel 110 of the terminal 100 and a transparent cover 30 connected to the case body 20 and the transparent cover 30, And an elastic connecting member 40 for providing elasticity to be brought into close contact with each other.

The case body 20 can be coupled to the case body 20 to cover the back surface of the portable terminal 100 so that the display panel 110 is exposed on the upper surface of the portable terminal 100, It is possible to additionally have a constitution to enclose each of the back surface and the side surfaces of the housing 100.

That is, the case body 20 may have a box structure that allows the portable terminal 100 to be exposed to the outside of the display panel 110 only. In this case, the case body 20 includes a bottom wall, And may have sidewalls extending upwardly from the rim. The side wall may be formed in a rectangular frame shape having rounded corners so as to correspond to the shape of the outer edge of the portable terminal 100. A plurality of openings for exposing the operation buttons and connection ports provided on the side of the portable terminal 100 are formed on the side walls. The case body 20 having such a configuration may be formed of a resin material or a leather material.

The transparent cover 30 has a flat shape corresponding to the display panel 110 and has a flat plate structure so as to be adhered to the surface of the display panel 110 without providing a gap therebetween. The transparent cover 30 may be formed of PMMA or tempered glass. In a state in which the transparent cover 30 is in close contact with the display panel 110, the user can operate the touch screen function of the display panel 110 through the touch operation of the finger.

Here, the rim of the outer surface of the transparent cover 30, that is, the outer exposed surface which is not in close contact with the display panel 110, is thinner than the other portions. That is, the entire outer edge of the outer surface of the transparent cover 30 is formed with the stepped portion 31 formed to be stepped thinner than the periphery (inner portion). The transparent cover 30 may have at least one hole for external exposure of a portion corresponding to an operation button, a speaker, or the like of the portable terminal 100.
