請參考圖1及圖2,在本實施例中,保護殼100包括一背蓋110、一架蓋120及多個彈性樞軸130。背蓋110具有一容置空間111、多個穿孔112、多個內凹槽113及多個圈柱114。容置空間111適於容置一電子裝置50,其繪示於圖5A。電子裝置50例如是智慧型手機。穿孔112穿過背蓋110以連接背蓋110的一外表面110a及相對外表面110a的一內表面110b。這些內凹槽113凹陷於內表面110b。各圈柱114位於對應的內凹槽113內。各彈性樞軸130耦接至架蓋120並具有一圈孔131。在本實施例中,以多個彈性樞軸130作為示意,但本發明不限於此。在另一未繪示的實施例中,也可採用單一個彈性樞軸130及對應的結構。此外,在另一未繪示實施例中,亦可省略這些內凹槽113,使得這些圈柱114直接位於容置空間111內。 Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , in the embodiment, the protective cover 100 includes a back cover 110 , a cover 120 , and a plurality of elastic pivots 130 . The back cover 110 has an accommodating space 111 , a plurality of through holes 112 , a plurality of inner grooves 113 , and a plurality of ring columns 114 . The accommodating space 111 is adapted to receive an electronic device 50, which is illustrated in FIG. 5A. The electronic device 50 is, for example, a smart phone. The through hole 112 passes through the back cover 110 to connect an outer surface 110a of the back cover 110 and an inner surface 110b of the opposite outer surface 110a. These inner grooves 113 are recessed on the inner surface 110b. Each of the ring columns 114 is located within the corresponding inner groove 113. Each of the elastic pivots 130 is coupled to the frame cover 120 and has a ring hole 131. In the present embodiment, a plurality of elastic pivots 130 are illustrated, but the invention is not limited thereto. In another embodiment, not shown, a single resilient pivot 130 and corresponding structure can also be utilized. In addition, in another embodiment, the inner grooves 113 may be omitted, so that the ring segments 114 are directly located in the accommodating space 111.
請參考圖3、圖4及圖5A,彈性樞軸130從外表面110a 穿過穿孔112,圈孔131套住圈柱114,且彈性樞軸130嵌合內凹槽113,以建立架蓋120與背蓋110的樞接關係。值得注意的是,當電子裝置50放入背蓋110時,電子裝置50面向背蓋110的那一面壓制彈性樞軸130,使得彈性樞軸130被固定在背蓋110上。 Referring to FIG. 3, FIG. 4 and FIG. 5A, the elastic pivot 130 is from the outer surface 110a. Through the through hole 112, the ring hole 131 covers the ring post 114, and the elastic pivot 130 fits into the inner groove 113 to establish a pivotal relationship between the frame cover 120 and the back cover 110. It should be noted that when the electronic device 50 is placed in the back cover 110, the side of the electronic device 50 facing the back cover 110 presses the elastic pivot 130 such that the elastic pivot 130 is fixed on the back cover 110.

In addition, the elastic pivots 130 are made of an elastic material (for example, thermoplastic polyurethane; Thermoplastic Urethane, or TPU for short), and the cover 120 and the elastic pivots 130 can be fabricated in a two-shot manner, so that the elastic pivot 130 is directly Secured to the shelf cover 120. In the present embodiment, a gap G may exist between the ring hole 131 and the ring column 114 to prevent elastic fatigue of the elastic pivot 130. The gap G is less than 1 mm. Further, the ring column 114 extends in a direction inclined to the inner surface 110b of the back cover 110 to obtain a large bonding force.
請參考圖5B,當背蓋110的容置空間111容置電子裝置50且架蓋120翻離背蓋110使得彈性樞軸130的變形在一限度內時,架蓋120相對於背蓋110支撐背蓋110及容置於容置空間111內的電子裝置50。這樣的狀態也繪示在圖6及圖7中。當架蓋120的一邊與背蓋110分離時,彈性樞軸130經由圈孔131套住圈柱114延伸,且架蓋120相對於背蓋110展開成一角度以支撐背蓋110。在本實施例中,背蓋110具有一背蓋限位邊緣115,架蓋120具有一架蓋限位邊緣125,架蓋限位邊緣125抵接背蓋限位邊緣115,以限制架蓋120相對於背蓋110的翻離角度。換言之,架蓋 120經由背蓋限位邊緣115支撐背蓋110。 Referring to FIG. 5B, when the accommodating space 111 of the back cover 110 accommodates the electronic device 50 and the cover 120 is turned away from the back cover 110 such that the deformation of the elastic pivot 130 is within a limit, the frame cover 120 is supported relative to the back cover 110. The back cover 110 and the electronic device 50 housed in the accommodating space 111. Such a state is also shown in FIGS. 6 and 7. When one side of the cover 120 is separated from the back cover 110, the elastic pivot 130 extends around the ring 114 via the ring hole 131, and the frame cover 120 is unfolded at an angle with respect to the back cover 110 to support the back cover 110. In this embodiment, the back cover 110 has a back cover limit edge 115, and the cover cover 120 has a cover limit edge 125. The cover limit edge 125 abuts the back cover limit edge 115 to limit the cover 120. The angle of sag relative to the back cover 110. In other words, the cover The back cover 110 is supported by the back cover limit edge 115.
請參考圖5C,當背蓋110的容置空間111未容置電子裝置50且架蓋120翻離背蓋110使得彈性樞軸130的變形超過所述限度時,彈性樞軸130脫離內凹槽113,圈孔131脫離圈柱114,且彈性樞軸130抽離穿孔112,以解除架蓋120與背蓋110的樞接關係。 Referring to FIG. 5C , when the accommodating space 111 of the back cover 110 does not accommodate the electronic device 50 and the cover 120 is turned away from the back cover 110 such that the deformation of the elastic pivot 130 exceeds the limit, the elastic pivot 130 is disengaged from the inner groove. 113, the ring hole 131 is separated from the ring column 114, and the elastic pivot 130 is pulled away from the through hole 112 to release the pivotal relationship between the frame cover 120 and the back cover 110.
請參考圖5D,在彈性樞軸130脫離內凹槽113之後,可通過移動架蓋120以連帶地將彈性樞軸130抽離穿孔112。在本實施例中,由於架蓋120是經由這些彈性樞軸130組裝至或拆卸自背蓋110,所以可藉由更換具有不同外觀樣式(例如圖案及顏色等)的架體來改變保護殼100的外觀。 Referring to FIG. 5D, after the elastic pivot 130 is disengaged from the inner groove 113, the elastic pivot 130 can be pulled away from the through hole 112 by the moving frame cover 120. In the present embodiment, since the frame cover 120 is assembled or detached from the back cover 110 via the elastic pivots 130, the protective case 100 can be changed by replacing the frame having different appearance patterns (for example, patterns and colors, etc.). Appearance.
在本實施例中,架蓋120的兩相對側之一側經由這些彈性樞軸130樞接至背蓋110的兩相對側之一側,如圖5A所示,而架蓋120的的兩相對側之另一側磁性地吸附於背蓋110的兩相對側之另一側,如圖8所示。具體而言,保護殼100更包括多對磁性元件140。各對磁性元件140包括一對磁鐵或包括一個磁鐵及與可被磁鐵吸引的一個金屬片。各對磁性元件140分別配置於背蓋110與架蓋120。因此,架蓋120的的兩相對側之另一側經由這些對磁性元件140而磁性地吸附於背蓋110的兩相對側之另一側。 In this embodiment, one of the opposite sides of the cover 120 is pivotally connected to one of the opposite sides of the back cover 110 via the elastic pivots 130, as shown in FIG. 5A, and the two opposite sides of the cover 120. The other side of the side is magnetically attracted to the other side of the opposite sides of the back cover 110, as shown in FIG. Specifically, the protective case 100 further includes a plurality of pairs of magnetic elements 140. Each pair of magnetic elements 140 includes a pair of magnets or a magnet and a sheet of metal that can be attracted by the magnet. Each pair of magnetic elements 140 is disposed on the back cover 110 and the shelf cover 120, respectively. Therefore, the other side of the opposite sides of the frame cover 120 is magnetically attracted to the other side of the opposite sides of the back cover 110 via the pair of magnetic members 140.
請再參考圖1及圖3,在本實施例中,背蓋110可具有一外凹槽116,外凹槽116凹陷於外表面110a,且架蓋120配合外凹槽116。因此,背蓋110與架蓋120有一致性的外觀輪廓。 Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 3 again, in the embodiment, the back cover 110 can have an outer groove 116, the outer groove 116 is recessed on the outer surface 110a, and the frame cover 120 fits the outer groove 116. Therefore, the back cover 110 and the frame cover 120 have a uniform appearance profile.
請再參考圖5A,在本實施例中,電子裝置50及保護殼100可構成一電子總成,而電子總成的組成元件不限於電子裝置50及保護殼100。 Referring to FIG. 5A again, in the embodiment, the electronic device 50 and the protective case 100 may constitute an electronic assembly, and the constituent elements of the electronic assembly are not limited to the electronic device 50 and the protective case 100.
綜上所述,本發明中,架體經由連接至架蓋本身的彈性樞軸組裝至背蓋,故架蓋可經由彈性樞軸相對於背蓋樞轉,以支撐背蓋及容置於容置空間內的電子裝置。這樣的結構不會大幅增加保護殼的體積及重量。由於彈性樞軸可製作得很薄,故增加架蓋可盡量不增加保護殼的厚度。由於連接至架體的彈性樞軸容易拆卸自背蓋,故可藉由更換具有不同外觀樣式(例如圖案及顏色等)的架體來改變保護殼的外觀。 In summary, in the present invention, the frame body is assembled to the back cover via an elastic pivot connected to the frame cover itself, so that the frame cover can be pivoted relative to the back cover via the elastic pivot to support the back cover and the receiving cover. Place the electronics inside the space. Such a structure does not significantly increase the volume and weight of the protective casing. Since the elastic pivot can be made very thin, the addition of the cover can minimize the thickness of the protective cover. Since the elastic pivot attached to the frame is easily detached from the back cover, the appearance of the protective case can be changed by replacing the frame having different appearance patterns (for example, pattern and color, etc.).
雖然本發明已以實施例揭露如上,然其並非用以限定本發明,任何所屬技術領域中具有通常知識者,在不脫離本發明的精神和範圍內,當可作些許的更動與潤飾,故本發明的保護範圍當視後附的申請專利範圍所界定者為準。 Although the present invention has been disclosed in the above embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention, and any one of ordinary skill in the art can make some changes and refinements without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
