Figure 1 is a diagram showing the structure of a wallet-type smartphone protective case to which the sterilizing pad of the present invention is applied, Figure 2 is a diagram showing the structure of the sterilizing part constituting the sterilizing pad, and Figure 3 is a diagram showing the cross-sectional structure of the sterilizing pad. am.

And, Figure 4 is a diagram showing the state in which the sterilization pad inside the front cover is in contact with the front part of the smartphone when the front cover is covered.

As shown in Figure 1, the case 100 is provided with a rear cover 120 in the form of a flat plate, and a front cover 110 in the form of a flat plate is connected to one side of the case 100 by a connecting portion 130.

The rear cover 110 and the front cover 120 are made of soft materials such as leather, artificial leather, and cloth, and a hard paper or plastic plate is inserted inside them, and the connection portion 130 is made of soft material. It is composed only of materials and has a structure in which the front cover 110 is rotated and covered by the front part of the rear cover 120.

An inner case 200 for storing and fixing the smartphone 300 may be attached and fixed to the inner side of the rear cover 110, and in another form, the smartphone 300 can be installed directly without the inner case 200. ) may be fixed with double-sided tape, etc.

A sterilizing pad 400 is provided on the inner surface of the front cover 1120. The sterilizing pad 400 may be attached with an adhesive or fixed at the edge by sewing, and the sterilizing pad 400 may be attached to the inner surface of the front cover 1120. It is desirable that the size and location correspond to the entire or part of the front area of the smartphone 300.

That is, the sterilizing pad 400 can be sterilized by contacting the entire front area of the smartphone 300, or by contacting a portion of the front area of the smartphone 300, for example, the area where the user's nose and mouth come into contact. It can have any size and location.

As shown in Figure 2, the sterilizing pad 400 has a sterilizing part 410 woven or knitted in the form of a net or cloth by threads made of copper copper and synthetic resin such as PE, PP, and PC. It is provided with an attachment member 430 on the lower surface and is attached to the inner side of the front cover 120, so that sterilization is performed on the front part of the smartphone 300 by a copper thread that has sterilizing power. will be.

As shown in Figure 3, this sterilizing unit 410 has weft threads arranged at regular intervals in the horizontal direction, and warp threads arranged at regular intervals in the vertical direction. The verb to buy is mainly placed, and the warp is mainly placed to be a thread made of synthetic resin.

For example, in the case of the weft, only the strands may be placed or the weaves and the yarns made of synthetic resin may be arranged alternating with each other, and in the case of the warp, only the yarns made of synthetic resin may be arranged or the yarns made of synthetic resin and the strands may be arranged alternating with each other. You can.

This is to make it easy to weave while maintaining the sterilizing power of the company's copper component. In the company's case, it is manufactured by heat-compressing or coating copper particles on the outside of the nylon thread by spraying, and at this time, the weft and warp yarn are made by the company. If it is placed only, when weaving it, the copper particles of the weft and warp of the weave may rub against each other and fall off, which may reduce the sterilizing power and increase the manufacturing cost.

However, the weft is mainly composed of yarns, and the warp yarn is mainly made of synthetic resin, so that friction between the yarns is eliminated and copper particles are prevented from falling off.

Of course, both the weft and the warp can be manufactured using only yarn, and the sterilizing part 410 can be knitted in a cloth form rather than a net form.

In addition, it is possible to form the sterilizing part 410 in the form of cloth by weaving or knitting a silver thread coated with silver particles on a thread made of synthetic resin material, not yarn. The sterilizing part 410 by such silver thread can be woven. Preferably, silver threads and synthetic resin threads may be arranged in the weft and warp threads, or only silver threads may be arranged as the weft thread, or silver threads and synthetic resin threads may be arranged alternating with each other, and in the case of the warp threads, only synthetic resin threads may be arranged. Alternatively, threads and silver threads made of synthetic resin may be arranged alternately.

It is desirable to use 70 denier for the above-mentioned copper or silver yarn, and it is desirable to use 100 denier for synthetic resin yarn made of PE material.

Here, denier is a unit representing the thickness of a thread, and represents the thickness of a thread that is 450 m long and weighs 005 g.

Accordingly, by forming the sterilizing portion 410 using these copper or silver threads and threads made of synthetic resin, it is possible to manufacture a sterilizing pad 400 that is harmless to the human body and is relatively inexpensive.

As shown in Figure 2(a), a cushion member 420 made of sponge or the like may be laminated between the sterilizing unit 410 and the attachment member 430, and is attached to the inner surface of the front cover 120 having a flat surface. If the sterilizing unit 410 is attached immediately, the outer surface of the sterilizing unit 410 cannot evenly contact the front part of the smartphone 300, which may reduce the sterilizing power.

Therefore, the cushion member 420 is made to have a thickness of about 1 to 2 mm, and is laminated between the sterilizing part 410 and the attachment member 430 to protect the smartphone 300 by the cushioning force of the cushion member 420. Make sure to contact the front area evenly.

Adhesive is applied to the upper side of the cushion member 420 and adhered to the sterilizing portion 410.

In addition, as shown in Figure 2(b), a waterproof member 440 may be further provided between the sterilizing unit 410 and the cushion member 420. This waterproof member 440 is made of a synthetic resin material such as film or urethane. This prevents moisture from penetrating into the cushion member 420.

That is, when the user's sweat, water, rainwater, etc. passes through the woven sterilizing part 410 and penetrates into the cushion member 420, the cushion member 420 absorbs and retains the water, making it hygienically undesirable. However, the inflow of moisture is blocked by the waterproof member 440, making it hygienically advantageous.

The cushion member 420 and the waterproof member 440 can be formed as one piece. A thin polyurethane pad is first bonded to the lower surface of the sterilizing unit 410, and this polyurethane pad is attached to the upper part of the paper with a relatively rough surface. Liquid polyurethane can be applied evenly to the surface to form a pad.

Afterwards, the paper and polyurethane pad are temporarily bonded by applying heat of 100 to 140°C.

That is, the polyurethane pad is temporarily bonded to paper having a rough surface by heat, and the paper can then be easily removed.

Additionally, it is desirable to apply uniform heat by putting it into the chamber.

Thereafter, when the sterilization unit 410 is placed on the upper surface of the polyurethane pad and heat of 40 to 60° C. is applied in the chamber, the upper surface of the polyurethane pad is spaced between the weft and the weft of the sterilization unit 410. , and is stably joined by digging into the space formed in the gap between the slopes.

Once bonding is completed, the polyurethane pad and the sterilization unit 410 are bonded more firmly by maturing for 20 to 28 hours in a chamber with an atmosphere of 80 to 90°C.

Thereafter, the paper is removed from the lower surface of the polyurethane pad, and then the attachment member 430 is attached to the lower surface of the polyurethane pad.

Ultimately, since this polyurethane pad has cushioning and waterproofing properties, it is laminated between the sterilizing part 410 and the attachment member 430 instead of the cushioning member 420 and the waterproofing member 440.

Figure 4 shows that when the sterilizing pad 400 is attached or fixed to the inner surface of the front cover 120 and the front cover 120 is rotated to cover the front part of the smartphone 300, the sterilizing pad 400 is Sterilization is performed by contacting the front part of the smartphone 300.
