According to the present disclosure, by the arrangement of the hinge protection case, when a cell phone with a folding screen needs to be unfolded for use, a user only needs to flip the cell phone with the folding screen to rotate the hinge protection case, and fits the hinge protection case to the upper case under the pushing of the springback plate.

One variation of a device case includes a device case body: configured to accept and retain a mobile device; defining a strap receptacle; and including a first set of magnetic features arranged across a base surface of the strap receptacle. The device case further includes a strap: coupled to the device case body; configured to seat within the strap receptacle in a retracted position; configured to accept a finger of a user in a deployed position; and including a second set of magnetic features configured to transiently couple to the first set of magnetic features to drive the strap from the deployed position to the retracted position and to retain the strap within the strap receptacle in the retracted position.

According to an example embodiment of the disclosure, a cover for a foldable electronic device may include: a first cover including a first plate having a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, and a first sidewall portion extending from an edge of the first plate, and having, based on the first plate and the first sidewall portion, a first recess allowing one part of the foldable electronic device with respect to a folding axis of the foldable electronic device to be disposed therein; a second cover including a second plate having a third surface and a fourth surface opposite to the third surface, and a second sidewall portion extending from an edge of the second plate, and having, based on the second plate and the second sidewall portion, a second recess allowing other part of the foldable electronic device with respect to the folding axis to be disposed therein; and a strap connecting the first cover and the second cover, the strap including a first portion combined with the first surface of the first cover; and a second portion extending from the first portion and passing through an opening part provided on the fourth surface of the second cover opposite to the third surface of the second cover.

Provided is an outer shell member for communication equipment, capable of enhancing metallic luster design while suppressing the generation of radio wave shielding that affects communication. A metallic tone print sheet 51 is arranged at least on a portion of an outer shell member for communication equipment including a mobile device 1 with a communication device and a protective case mounted thereon. The metallic tone print sheet 51 includes, when viewed from the front, a metallic portion equipped with a metallic reflective layer and a transmission portion not equipped with a metallic reflective layer. The metallic reflective layer is provided with a metallic concave reflective surface that is curved in a cross-section in the thickness direction of the metallic tone print sheet. The transmission portion has a radio wave permeability that transmits radio waves to the communication device.

A stand for a mobile device. The stand includes a back plate having a pair of parallel tracks, the back surface of the back plate attached to a back surface of the mobile device. The stand includes a sliding plate having a first end coupled to the back plate and configured to slide along the pair of parallel tracks. The stand includes a pivot plate having a first end connected to the second end of the sliding plate at a hinge, a second end connected to the back plate, and the pivot plate is configured to pivot relative to the back plate when the first end of the sliding plate slides along the pair of parallel tracks. The pivot plate, the sliding plate, and the back plate form one or more channels for receiving one or more fingers of a user when the stand is in the deployed position.

Various embodiments of the present invention relate to an electronic device having covers which may be coupled and an operating method thereof, the electronic device may include a housing; a first cover coupled with at least part of the housing, and comprising at least one first identification terminal; a second cover coupled with at least part of the first cover, and comprising at least one second identification terminal which is electrically connectable with the first identification terminal; and a processor. The processor may be configured to obtain at least one of first information related to the first cover or second information related to the second cover, identify at least one of a type of the first cover or a type of the second cover based on at least one of the first information or the second information, and perform a designated operation based on at least one of the type of the first cover or the type of the second cover. Other various embodiments are possible.

This present invention pertains to a method and apparatus to improve thermal transfer properties of a protective case for a mobile device such as a smartphone or tablet computer. The protective mobile device case is optimized for temperature regulation and heat transfer by integrating thermal interface materials into key regions of the protective case where heat transfer to or from heat sensitive components within a mobile device are located.

An intelligent screen protector is provided. Responsive to the intelligent screen protector being detached from a paired portable computing device, the intelligent screen protector identifies a set of instructions received from the paired portable computing device associated with visually generating an image of a selected smartcard. In accordance with the set of instructions, the intelligent screen protector visually generates the image of the selected smartcard in a transparent display area of the intelligent screen protector. The intelligent screen protector determines whether a transaction associated with the selected smartcard has been initiated. Responsive to the transaction associated with the selected smartcard being initiated, the intelligent screen protector discontinues the visual generation of the image of the selected smartcard in the transparent display area of the intelligent screen protector.

A double smart phone case assembly includes a first case that has a first camera opening extending through the first case. A first smart phone can be positioned in the first case such that a camera on the first smart phone is aligned with the first camera opening. A second case is provided and the second case has a second camera opening extending through the second case. A second smart phone is positionable in the second case such that a camera on the second smart phone is aligned with the second camera opening. Moreover, the second case is positioned on the first case such that the first camera opening is offset from the second case and the second camera opening is offset from the first case.

A technique for selectively configuring a case of a handheld device to shield an antenna from receiving or transmitting wireless signals is disclosed. The technique includes moving a blocking element on the case between a first position and a second position. The blocking element is a physical structure that is rotatable, slidable, or removable to switch between the first position and the second position. In response to moving the blocking element to the first position, the blocking element blocks wireless signals received or transmitted by the antenna of the handheld device. In response to moving the blocking element to the second position, wireless signals can be received or transmitted through the case by the antenna.
