1 and 2, in the case 1 for a portable terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention, even though the same type of camera hole H is formed regardless of the model of the portable terminal T, The camera lens L is prevented from being damaged and the camera angle of the camera lens L is not interfered with and the camera 10 includes the body 10, the shielding plate 11, the latching part HK, and the flip cover 30 .

1 and 2, the body 10 is formed in a substantially hexahedral shape corresponding to the shape of the portable terminal T, and the portable terminal T is coupled to the front face 10a and the rear face 10b, Is formed concave inside.

1, a mounting portion 10c to which the portable terminal T is coupled is formed on the front surface 10a of the body 10. [ The mounting portion 10c may be formed in a groove formed inward from the front surface 10a or may protrude outward from the front surface 10a such that the rim of the portable terminal T is sandwiched therebetween. The portable terminal T is inserted inwardly from the front end of the mounting portion 10c to prevent breakage of the portable terminal T when falling, and is protected from external shocks.

1 and 2, a camera hole H is formed in the body 10 to allow the camera lens L of the portable terminal T to be exposed through the front surface 10a and the rear surface 10b, And a blocking plate 11 for opening or closing the camera hole H is coupled to the rear surface 10b of the body 10. [

The conventional portable terminal case prevents the camera lens installed on the back surface of the portable terminal from being damaged, and holes corresponding to the shape of the camera lens are formed for each type of smart phone so that the camera angle of the camera is not interfered.

However, since the position and shape of the camera lens differ depending on the model of the portable terminal, the through holes having different positions and shapes must be formed in different cases according to the models, so that the through holes are formed separately for each model, There is a problem that the production cost is increased.

The case 1 for a mobile terminal of the present invention essentially solves the above-described problem.

That is, even if the size and shape of the case 1 are different from each other depending on the size and shape of the portable terminal T, a camera hole H having a large area is formed at the same position for each case 1, It is possible to simplify the production process by forming the camera hole H in the same manner regardless of the type of the camera hole H, thereby reducing the production cost.

4A and 4B, the blocking plate 11 has a structure in which the camera hole H is opened or closed so as to prevent the camera lens L from being broken, and one end thereof is located at the lower end of the camera hole H A hook-shaped hook portion (not shown) is rotatably coupled to the body 10 and is hooked at the upper end portion of the camera hole H of the body 10 to hook the other end of the shutter plate 11 when the camera hole H is closed HK) are formed.

4A, the blocking plate 11 intercepts the front of the camera hole H while blocking the photographing angle of the camera lens L while the other end of the blocking plate 11 is normally engaged with the latching portion HK, The other end portion is detached from the latch portion HK and is rotated about its one end portion by gravity to deviate from the photographing angle of the camera lens L as shown in FIG.

As shown in Figs. 4A and 4B, the one end of the shielding plate 11 and the body 10 are connected by an elastic member E such as a torsion spring. One end of the elastic member E is coupled to the lower end of the shielding plate 11 and the other end of the elastic member E is coupled to the body 10 so that the elastic restoring force is maximized when the other end of the shielding plate 11 is caught by the latching portion HK. Lt; / RTI >

The other end of the blocking plate 11 is rotated by the resilient restoring force of the elastic member E and the camera lens L is rotated by the resilient restoring force of the elastic member E when the blocking plate 11 and the latching portion HK are released. There is an advantage that the photographing angle of the camera lens L can be secured even in a state in which the shielding plate 11 can not be rotated by gravity.

The shielding plate 11 is formed into a convex curved surface facing the camera hole H and a shielding plate 11 is provided between the one end of the shielding plate 11 and the rear surface 10b of the body 10, 11 are concavely and elastically deformed toward the camera hole H, as shown in Fig.

The protrusion P is formed protruding from the rear surface 10b of the blocking plate 11 or the body 10 to determine the radius of curvature of the blocking plate 11 which is concavely deformed toward the camera hole H. [

4A, the blocking plate 11 is engaged with the latching portion HK in a state of being elastically deformed concavely toward the camera hole H by the projecting portion P, The photographing angle of the camera lens L is closed.

4A, when the clipping plate 11 closes the imaging angle of the camera lens L, the clipping plate 11, which is convex in shape with the fingers, is moved from its other end to one end (A to B direction The other end of the blocking plate 11 is easily detached from the latching portion HK and the blocking plate 11 is quickly released from the photographing angle of the camera lens L by the elastic restoring force as soon as the blocking plate 11 is disengaged I will escape.

As shown in Fig. 4B, the blocking plate 11 is formed in a state in which the photographing angle of the camera lens L is opened and the other end is further deviated from the photographing angle of the camera lens L than the one end by the convex shape There is an advantage that the interference of the photographing angle by the blocking plate 11 is prevented.

As shown in FIG. 2, a mirror M is formed on the rear surface 10b of the body 10 below the camera hole H. As shown in FIG. The user can use the mirror M by opening the flip cover 30 from the rear surface 10b of the body 10. The mirror M is protected from external foreign matter by the cover to prevent damage and scratching of the mirror surface do.

Particularly, when the mirror M is formed on the rear surface 10b of the body 10, when the mirror M is taken close to the subject, the mirror M is incident on the rear surface 10b of the body 10 from the object or surrounding objects The effect of proximity illumination of the subject is formed. Therefore, there is an advantage that a photograph or an image is captured more clearly by the close-illumination effect of the rear face 10b of the body 10. [

1 and 2, the flip cover 30 is configured to be coupled to the body 10 to open or close the rear face 10b. The flip cover 30 includes a body 10 The flip cover 30 is rotatably coupled to the side surface of the flip cover 30. The flip cover 30 is formed on the inner surface thereof with a card receiving portion 31 for accommodating a credit card, a traffic card, a receipt or a business card.

The conventional case is widely used for storing a credit card, a traffic card, a receipt, a business card or the like in the case, and a cover for accommodating the card is opened or closed on the screen of the portable terminal. However, the conventional case has a problem that the user can not always check the screen of the portable terminal as the cover closes the front surface of the case to which the portable terminal is coupled.

That is, in the conventional case, when a telephone or a character is received by covering a wide liquid crystal screen formed on the front surface of the portable terminal, the user can confirm the sender or contents only by opening the cover, Even if a transmission window is formed, the content displayed on the transmission window is limited, and thus it is disadvantageous that a wide liquid crystal screen of a portable terminal including a smart phone can not be utilized properly.

In addition, when a cover is closed, a credit card, a transportation card, a receipt or a business card is housed on the inner side of the cover contacting the screen of the portable terminal, the cover is lifted due to the thickness of the card, and the LCD screen is scratched by the edge of the card The card storage portion is formed on the inner surface of the cover in the form of a bag. Therefore, when a plurality of cards are accommodated, the distance between the screen and the cover of the portable terminal increases to reduce the aesthetics of the case sharply. There was a disadvantage that the article could not be stored.

As shown in Figs. 1 to 3, the case 1 for a mobile terminal of the present invention essentially solves the above-described problems.

First, when the flip cover 30 opens or closes the rear surface 10b of the body 10 without opening or closing the screen of the portable terminal T, the user can easily display on the wide liquid crystal screen of the portable terminal T And the breakage of the liquid crystal screen due to the edge of the card is prevented.

Secondly, on the rear surface 10b of the body 10, a receiving groove 10d concaved in the edge is formed so as to prevent the flip cover 30 from being separated from the body 10. [ The receiving groove 10d is formed by forming a step with the edge of the inner edge of the rear face 10b, and may be formed in various volumes depending on the depth of the step.

When the flip cover 30 closes the rear face 10b of the body 10, the card compartment 31 faces the inside of the edge of the rear face 10b, The flip cover 30 is brought into close contact with the edge of the rear face 10b and the flip cover 30 and the body 10b are brought into contact with each other as the card accommodating portion 31 and the card protrude into the receiving groove 10d, (10) is prevented.

Third, if the depth of the receiving groove 10d is variously formed, a large number of business cards, cards, or banknotes can be stored in the receiving groove 10d.

2, when the engaging member U is coupled to the edge of the rear surface 10b of the body 10 and the flip cover 30, the receiving groove 10d is formed by the flip cover 30 The sealed state can be maintained so that the loss of the article stored in the receiving groove 10d can be prevented.

The engaging members U may be formed of a pair of permanent magnets or permanent magnets and magnetic bodies that form a coupling force with each other by magnetic force, or various coupling means such as a snap button, a Velcro tape and the like may be used.

5, the case 2 for a portable terminal according to another embodiment of the present invention includes an extra cover (not shown) for opening or closing the front surface 10a of the body 10 on the outer surface of the flip cover 30 50 may be detachably coupled.

The extra cover (50) and the flip cover (30) are formed with a coupling member (U) that forms a coupling force with each other. The engaging members U may be formed of a pair of permanent magnets or permanent magnets and magnetic bodies that form a coupling force with each other by magnetic force, or various coupling means such as a snap button, a Velcro tape and the like may be used.

The extra cover 50 is formed in an area corresponding to the edge of the front surface 10a of the body 10 and when the user needs to hide the image information displayed on the screen of the portable terminal T, The front cover 10a can be closed by separating the extra cover 50. [

The extra cover 50 is rotatably coupled to the body 10 and can be rotatably connected by the body 10 and the elastic member 51. The stretchable member 51 is elongated by a certain length so that the extra cover 50 can close the front surface 10a. It is preferable that an engaging member U is formed on the edge surfaces of the extra cover 50 and the front surface 10a to form a coupling force with each other.

On the outer surface of the flip cover (30), a business card storage portion (33) is formed. Since the card storage 33 is not normally exposed to the outside by the extra cover 50, it is preferable that a business card, a traffic card, and the like, which are not frequently taken out, are stored in the card storage 33.

According to the present invention, the portable terminal T is coupled to the front surface 10a and the camera hole H passing through the front surface 10a and the rear surface 10b is exposed so that the camera lens L of the portable terminal T is exposed.
