Mobile device cases are provided which, in a first embodiment, selectively limit a user's ability to control the user's own mobile electronic device. The case includes front and rear portions joined together and defining therein an opening for receiving a mobile electronic device, such as a mobile phone. A locking mechanism is provided for selectively securing the opening in a first locked position to prevent operational access to the mobile electronic device by the user until a predetermined condition is met. The case includes an indicia of time visible to the user during the period of time of prevented operational access. In a further embodiment, a case is provided with first and second polymeric shells each having an interior and an exterior surface thereon and connected together by at least one hinge portion. The first and second shell portions form a cavity of sufficient size to cover a mobile electronic device sufficiently to prevent access by its user. Tamper resistant and ultrasonic sensor defeating mobile device case embodiments are also contemplated by this invention.

Disclosed is a seal for a touch screen module, comprising: a first side configured to be disposed at least at an edge of the touch screen module; and a second side opposite to the first side; wherein the second side is configured such that an outer section of the second side is to be fitted with a housing in an interference fit manner and at least a portion of an inner section of the second side is to be fitted with the housing in a non-interference fit manner. Also disclosed are a touch screen module, a monitor and an assembling method. The seal not only can achieve a good sealing effect to prevent any undesired substances from being collected at the seal and entering the interior of the monitor, but also can prevent the transparent cover from falling off from the housing due to stress generated by the seal.

A user device that can be touched by a user includes a heat source that can generate heat; a case body covering the heat source; and a polymer-containing heat storage body attached to the case body.

This application provides a decorating assembly, a housing assembly, and an electronic device. Gas flows between the outside of the electronic device, the first gap, the first channel, the breathable space, the waterproof breathable film, and the first space to implement a quick balance between internal air pressure of the first space and external air pressure of the electronic device. In addition, the waterproof breathable film is installed on the base, and the waterproof breathable film covers the breathable space, to ensure that when the decorating assembly is applied to the electronic device, the waterproof breathable film can prevent external liquid of the electronic device from entering the first space through the breathable space, thereby ensuring that the electronic device has relatively good waterproof performance.

A portable communication device or electronic device is provided. The communication device includes a housing including a first housing structure, a second housing structure, and a hinge cover positioned between at least a portion of the first housing structure and at least a portion of the second housing structure, a flexible display at least partially received in the housing and including a first portion corresponding to the first housing structure, a second portion corresponding to the second housing structure, and a third portion corresponding to the hinge cover, a hinge structure positioned between the third portion of the flexible display and the hinge cover and connected with the first housing structure and the second housing structure, and at least one sealing member positioned between the third portion of the flexible display and the hinge cover and contacting the hinge cover.

A system for protecting a surface of a substrate includes a protective film, which is configured to be applied and secured to the surface, as well as a backing on an adherent surface of the protective film and an application tape over an exterior surface of the protective film. Protruding features, such as tabs, adjacent to different peripheral edges of the protective film may enable removal of the backing and the application tape from the protective film, and may include features that indicate the order in which each protruding feature is to be grasped to peel its corresponding element away from the protective film. Methods of using such a system are also disclosed.

An electronic device according to various embodiments of the present invention may comprise: a housing; an interface connected to the housing or exposed through the housing and comprising at least one configuration channel (CC) pin; a circuit disposed inside the housing, comprising a current generator and a comparator, and electrically connected to the interface; a processor disposed inside the housing and operatively connected to the interface and the circuit; and a memory operatively connected to the processor. The memory cause the processor, when executed, to detect moisture corresponding to the at least one CC pin on the basis of the comparator while the at least one CC pin is connected to the current generator and to control at least one switch disposed between the current generator and the at least one CC pin, in response to detection of the moisture, thereby conducting switching such that the at least one CC pin is not connected to the current generator. Other embodiments are also possible.

The present invention relates to the field of communications device housings, namely housings for the support and protection of hand-held electronic devices having data input features and video screens. In particular, the present invention relates to housings for communications devices such as smartphones, for example, which housings protect the communications devices and can be easily cleaned. The housing consists of two interacting housing parts to protect a smartphone therein, wherein the first housing part comprises sliding channels (35) into which tabs (34) of the second housings slide when the two housings are slit together to be closed. The end of the sliding channels (35) comprise a detent member (36) into which the tabs (34) engage when the housing is closed. A locking mechanism (29) is provided which fixes the both hosing parts when closed.
