An eyewear system including eyeglasses and a case, the eyeglasses having a first lens, a second lens, and a bendable bridge disposed between the first lens and second lens, the bendable bridge having a spring providing a spring force when the bridge is bent from a rest position, the eyeglasses being adapted to move from a wearable configuration in which the first and second lens do not overlap to a stored configuration in which the first and second lenses at least partially overlap, the bendable bridge being bent from its rest position in the stored configuration, the case having an opening through which the eyeglasses pass during insertion and guides sized and configured with respect to the eyeglasses to engage and fold the eyeglasses against spring force of the bridge to the stored configuration during insertion of the eyeglasses through the opening and into the case.

An extendable and retractable earpiece cable assembly for mobile communication or sound devices including a housing integrally formed with or detachably connected to a casing for protecting a mobile electronic device. The housing receives a mechanism around which at least one earpiece cable is removably wound. The earpiece cable is extendable from and retractable into the housing.

A case having a standing leg includes a soft protective cover, a hard protective frame, a standing leg, and a spring which biases the standing leg to an open position. An opening formed on the hard protective frame so that the standing leg fits in the opening. The standing leg and the soft protective cover are constructed to be magnetically attractable to each other. In a closed position of the standing leg, a magnetic force between the standing leg and the soft protective cover is stronger than a tensile force of the spring to maintain the standing leg's closed position, and in the open position of the standing leg, the tensile force is stronger than the magnetic force to maintain the standing leg's open position. In the alternative embodiment, the case includes a kickstand which is secured between the soft protective cover and the hard protective frame.

A device case for a portable electronic device includes a device stand attached to a hack surface of the case housing. The device stand is formed by an inner stand and outer stand connected by releasable hinged connections to the back surface of the case housing. A track is formed on a surface of the outer stand that the inner stand slides along. A locking portion such as a cavity or channel on the outer stand locks the inner stand into an open position with respect to the outer stand. At least a portion of the outer stand is flexible such that applying a threshold pressure to the device case causes the portion of the outer stand to flex such that the locking portion releases the inner and outer stand from the open position without damaging the stand.

The radio holster incorporated a lock mechanism that automatically actuates when the radio is inserted into the holster and is deactivated by pressing on the radio in a small downward and outward direction. The radio holster includes pliable front and back covers affixed to a rigid support frame. The support frame has a recessed channel that as a guide track and a button cavity that acts as keyhole for locking the radio inside holster. The wall forming the button cavity wall is back cut or angled to form an upper lip, which is configured to receive the button head of a coupling mechanism used by the radio to restrictively hold the radio within the holster. The support frame also carries a back spring that exerts a lateral force on the radio when seated within the holster to push the bottom of the radio laterally away from the support frame and a bottom spring that exerts a force on the radio when seated within the holster to push the bottom of the radio upward within the holster.

A mobile device case for coupling around a miniature camera-enabled mobile device a case shutter button mechanism for actuating the miniature camera module of the mobile camera system. A half-press or single tap triggers a precapture settings menu and a full-press or double tap triggers capture of an image.

A protective case system includes a mounting accessory and a protective case. The mounting accessory is attachable to an object and has a dovetail rail member, a snap feature, and an engagement feature. The protective case includes an inner liner and an outer shell. The outer shell is removably attachable to the mounting accessory to removably attach the protective case to the object through the mounting accessory. The outer shell includes a receiver channel in proximity to a first end of the outer shell. The receiver channel is adapted to slidably receive the dovetail rail member of the mounting accessory to removably attach the outer shell of the protective case to the mounting accessory. The outer shell further includes an engagement feature for engaging the engagement feature of the mounting accessory to further removably attach the outer shell to the mounting accessory.

The present disclosure relates to a mobile terminal mounted with a cover to provide its associated functions, and a control method thereof. The present disclosure may include a body having a front surface and a rear surface thereof, a display unit disposed on the front surface, a cover disposed to cover the display unit, and provided with a window portion, and a controller configured to control the display unit to illuminate notification light on the window portion when an event occurs while the display unit is deactivated. The window portion may be formed to expose at least part of the display unit to the outside while covering the display, and the cover is formed to output the illuminated notification light at a boundary of the window portion.

A holder for a personal computing device (PCD) and method for allowing a user of a PCD to securely hold the PCD with a single finger; to selectively position his or her thumb horizontally, vertically, angularly, and a desired distance away from the PCD, when holding the PCD to more easily reach any point on the touchscreen with the thumb on his same hand without ever needing to resort to using his other hand; and allowing the user, in the alternative, to rest the PCD on a flat surface, such as to read articles or watch videos, and prop the PCD up at a multitude of angles, in both landscape and portrait orientations depending on whether the flat surface is high or low and whether the user is sitting or standing.
