Abstract
Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a case for an electronic device having a storage space, and more particularly, to a cellular phone case having a flexible protective case, a rigid protective frame and a cover as three main parts. The cover is configured to slidably open and close a storage space for storing a personal item such as a credit card.
This application claims priority from U.S. Ser. No. 14 / 562,621, filed December 5, 2014, and Ser. No. 14 / 693,805, filed April 22, 2015, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Portable electronic devices such as mobile phones, smart phones, tablet computers and the like are becoming more popular and widely used for communication, entertainment and other applications. Users want to use these electronic devices on the move, and these electronic devices are unintentionally dropped, impacted, and easily scratched. Protective cases have been introduced to protect such portable electronic devices and have become increasingly popular for protecting electronic devices such as mobile phones, smart phones, and tablet computers.
For example, it is common to combine several functions into a protective case, such as a case with a pocket or a purse clutter. Recently, a protection case of a flip / folio type having a storage space for storing a credit card or a debit card has been popular among various kinds of protection cases. The cover of the protective case is opened and closed in an upside-down manner on an electronic device such as a cell phone or smart phone. These covers usually have a snap mechanism, such as a snap, a magnet, and hook and loop fasteners. Credit cards are usually stored inside the front of the protective case. In order to use the electronic device, the cover must be opened so that the front side of the electronic device and the credit cards are exposed together. Therefore, credit cards are exposed whenever users use electronic devices.
In addition, the size and shape of modern mobile phones are getting smaller and smaller, and the protective case is becoming smaller. Thus, adding storage space for personal items such as credit cards tends to make the protective case unnecessarily bulky or heavy.
Therefore, in order to solve the above problems and to facilitate the convenient carrying of personal items such as credit cards and debit cards, there is a need for a protective case for an electronic device having a miniaturized and nice integral structure for accommodating personal items such as credit / debit cards do.
