Abstract:
A support having a magnetically assisted deployment and retraction mechanism which is designed for use with protective covers for personal electronic devices such as smartphones and tablet computing devices featuring a segmented support structure that deploys from a first channel when a shuttle located in a second channel disposed under the first channel is moved from a first position to a second position. The shuttle contains a first magnet and a second magnet, and the segmented support contains magnets which generate either attractive or repulsive forces depending on the position of the shuttle, which forces cause deployment of the support.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a mount featuring one or more sets of embedded magnets which are designed to engage with complimentary sets of magnets disposed either in a protective case for use with the mount, or in a mobile device contained within such a protective case. The mount includes a pin which is magnetically actuated to extend into a hole disposed in the protective case when the case and the mount are brought within a prescribed distance. Thus, the case and the mount “snap together” and are restrained from sliding relative to one another by the pin.
Abstract:
A case for enclosing and remaining attached to a tablet-computing device may include a rigid inner portion and an outer portion attached thereto. The case may be customized to accommodate a particular kind or type of tablet-computing device and may include an aperture aligned within the case to accommodate a feature of the inserted tablet-computing device. The case may be configured to elevate a tablet-computing device to an angled position relative to a planar position and/or maintain the tablet-computing device in the angled position. In some embodiments, the rigid inner portion may be removable from the case.
Abstract:
A screen protector with a screen protective film and an integrated frame configured to be attached to the screen of an electronic device. The screen protector is a lightweight screen cover that provides impact protection and personalization to any device.
Abstract:
An outer case for covering a handheld electronic device or handheld electronic device case includes a base, a lid, and a collar. The lid is pivotably attached to the base. The collar is attached to the base and is moveable away from the lid such that the lid rotates away from the base during movement of the collar away from the lid.
