Description
- Personal electronics such as cell phones, mini-tablet computers and similar handheld communication and computing apparatus are known in the art. These apparatus are generally expensive, multifunctional electronics, which are sensitive to temperature, fluid emersion, and impact shock. Despite their fragile nature, such apparatus are frequently manufactured with housings inadequate to protect them from impact shock occurring through normal, daily use. These events include dropping an apparatus, or inadvertently banging it against a surface while held in a user's hand.
- To protect these personal electronic and communication apparatus, many different case designs have been developed to shield them against impact. The most effective cases surround the edges of an apparatus, while preserving access to its screen and controls such as volume and power interfaces, and features such as an audio jack and camera. While cases in the art are usually sufficient for protecting against damage and malfunction from inadvertent impact damage, other problems inherent with small electronics persist, such as the difficulty with retrieving an apparatus from a bag or other location filled with other items, and loss of an apparatus by inadvertently abandoning it in a location, or intentional loss through theft.
- There is therefore a need for a case for personal electronics apparatus that protects an apparatus from inadvertent impact. There is also a need for a case that helps prevent an apparatus from getting lost, either temporarily among other possessions, or lost entirely through abandonment or theft. There is also a need for a case that preserves the apparatus at hand, allowing a user to easily and quickly retrieve the apparatus when needed. There is also a need for a case which is convertible, allowing a user to convert the apparatus from a configuration wherein it can be worn around the user's neck, to a configuration more similar to a traditional personal electronics case.
- These and other needs are addressed by an invention, the objects and details of which are discussed in the following summary, description, and claims.
- A convertible lanyard case for a personal electronics item is disclosed. The case is defined by a top end, a bottom end, a front side, and a back side. Together, these ends and sides are configured to conform to the personal electronics item, generally surrounding it and acting as a buffer between an impacting surface and the item's manufactured housing. The front side is configured for viewing and accessing a screen of the personal electronics item, including an interactive touch screen. The back side includes a tab assembly adjacent the bottom end.
- The tab assembly includes a movable tab, which has a hole for engaging a lanyard and clip. The tab is movable, in one embodiment a sliding movement, between a first position wherein the hole is obscured by the back side with the tab held against the back side, and a second position wherein the tab extends front the case thereby unblocking the hole in a position proximal the bottom end.
- In order to govern movement, the tab preferably travels in a frame confining it to linear (i.e., back-and-forth) movement coaxial with the top end and bottom end. To preserve the tab in the first position and in the second position, the tab includes a stop with a biasing mechanism causing the stop to seat in a notch on the frame. The stop may be a member that slides laterally in relation to the tab, and the biasing mechanism may be a spring configured to push the stop into the notch. Preferably the tab includes a finger grip to facilitate movement by a user.
- To allow free linear movement, yet preserve the tab against the back side, the tab may include one or more rails corresponding to one or more guides on the frame. The rails seat under the guides, thereby holding the tab against the back side. In one preferred embodiment, the case includes two parallel and linear rails on the tab for engaging two parallel and linear guides on the frame.
- To facilitate using the personal electronics device, the front side of the case preferably frames the screen, thereby allowing users access to touch screen functionality. In one alternative embodiment, the front side may comprise a peripheral edge of the case, with the peripheral edge configured to retain the personal electronics item therein, and allowing the user access to the entire screen side of the personal electronics device.
- To confer an added measure of protection, the peripheral edge may be made contiguous around the back side. In such an embodiment, the back side preferably includes a camera window or other portals for functionality incorporated into the hack side of the personal electronics device. Typically the camera window will be disposed proximal to the top end to avoid contact with the user's finger.
- To use the case, a user obtains a personal electronics device and the case disclosed herein. A sliding tab mechanism on a back side and a bottom end of the case is incorporated into the case. The user inserts the personal electronic device into the case, thereby causing it to be held securely therein. The user may then slide a tab of the tab mechanism toward the bottom end, causing a hole to be revealed on the tab overhanging the case, and enabling the user to attach a lanyard to the case by clipping the lanyard to the hole and wearing the lanyard.
- The case, when worn on the lanyard, preserves the personal electronics device around the user's neck, preventing the user from dropping or losing it. In the instance of a phone, when the user needs to use the phone, the user simply picks it up and places it against the user's ear, naturally inverting it by normal movement without the lanyard getting in the way. When a call or other interaction is concluded, the user may simply (gently) release the device, thereby allowing it to once again dangle from the lanyard.
- Sometimes a more conventional case may be desired. In such an instance, the lanyard may be removed, and the case converted by sliding the tab toward the top end, thereby bringing the tab entirely onto the back side, and obscuring the hole.

FIG. 2 illustrates the convertible lanyard case with the anchoring tab retracted; -
FIG. 3 illustrates a frame portion of a tab mechanism of the convertible lanyard case; and -
FIG. 4 illustrates a tab portion of the tab mechanism of the convertible lanyard case. - Referring to
FIG. 1 , aconvertible lanyard case 10 includes atop end 12, abottom end 14, afront side 16 and aback side 18. Atab assembly 20 is located on theback side 18 near thebottom end 14. Thetab assembly 20 includes atab 22 and aframe 24. Thetab 22 includes ahole 26 for attaching a lanyard (not shown). It is contemplated that a typical looped lanyard, including a lanyard having a standard swivel hook clip may be used to engage thehole 26. Theframe 24 is a substantially u-shaped member bounding thetab 22, and confining it to slide only in a linear direction coaxially with thetop end 12 and thebottom end 14. - Still referring to
FIG. 1 , thetab 22 includes astop 28, in the illustrated embodiment, twoopposing stops 28. Eachstop 28 includes abiasing mechanism 30 that urges thestop 28 laterally with respect to the direction of travel of thetab 22. Thetab 22 also includes afinger grip 34 for facilitating moving thetab 22 back and forth. Theframe 24 includes anotch 32, in the illustrated embodiment, fournotches 32 for accommodating thestops 28 and for holding thetab 22 in an extended position as shown, or in a retracted position as shown inFIG. 2 . In the illustrated, extended position, thetab 22 extends beyond thecase 10, exposing thehole 26 for lanyard attachment. - Referring to
FIG. 2 , thetab assembly 20 is shown in a retracted position, with thestops 28 biasing thetab 22 in place. Thestops 28 are sealed in thenotches 32 preferably in a manner allowing them to be dislodged under upward finger pressure on thefinger grip 34. With thetab 22 in a retracted position, thetab 22 is entirely adjacent theback side 18, with thehole 26 fully occluded by theback side 18. In this position, thecase 10 functions as a typical phone case with no lanyard attached. Preferably, theframe 24 is sized so that when the stops 28 seat in thenotches 32 of the retracted position, thetab 22 adjoins theentire frame 24, thereby preventing thetab 22 from moving past its retracted position. - The
frame 24 preferably terminates at aperipheral edge 36 for aesthetic appearance, and more specifically at the peripheral edge near thebottom end 14 to avoid interfering with the user's finger movements near controls and other functional features such as acamera window 38, which may result in the user inadvertently touching and dirtying thecamera window 38. - Referring to
FIGS. 3 and 4 , theframe 24 and thetab 22 are shown independently. In addition to thenotches 32, theframe 14 includes alinear guide 40, in the illustrated embodiment two parallellinear guides 40, for retaining thetab 22. Thetab 22 includes a linear rail 42, in the illustrated embodiment two parallel linear rails 42, for engaging theguides 40. The rails 42 are preferably located below thestops 28, allowing thestops 28 to move laterally, in and out of thenotches 32 as the rails 42 travel in the guides. - The structure of the convertible lanyard case for personal electronics having been shown and described, its method of operation will now be discussed.
- To use the
convertible lanyard case 10, a user inserts a personal electronic item, such as a cell phone in the primary embodiment, into thecase 10 through thefront side 16. In such a configuration, thecase 10 operates similar to typical phone cases. To convert thecase 10, the user slides thetab 22 on theback side 18 away from thetop end 12, causing it to extend over thebottom end 14, and exposing thehole 26. When the user slides thetab 22, preferably using thefinger grip 34, lateral pressure drives thestops 28 out ofnotches 32 on theframe 14. - When the
tab 22 is fully extended and thehole 26 fully exposed, thestops 28 again arrive atnotches 32 and click into place, anchoring thetab 22 in an extended position. The user may then clip a lanyard through, thehole 26, and wear thecase 10 around the user's neck. Because thetab assembly 20 holds thecase 10 upside down, using the phone is easily managed, as picking it up naturally involves inverting it. The user may talk on the phone, consult applications, take pictures, etc., as the user normally would without a lanyard attachment. When the user is finished using the phone, it can be gently released and once again remain suspended around the user's neck. Should the user wish to remove the lanyard, the clip is easily removed from thehole 26, and thetab 22 slid back toward thetop end 12 of thecase 10. - The foregoing description of the preferred embodiment of the invention is sufficient in detail to enable one skilled in the art to make and use the invention. It is understood, however, that the detail of the preferred embodiment presented is not intended to limit the scope of the invention, in as much as equivalents thereof and other modifications which come within the scope of the invention as defined by the claims will become apparent to those skilled in the art upon reading this specification.
