Portable electronic device and method of protecting portable electronic device

摘要

Provided is a portable electronic device with excellent shock resistance without reducing design property. A portable electronic device according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention is equipped with a case including a device (e.g., a speaker), a covering member that covers the device, a protrusion that is formed on the case, and a protective member that protects the covering member. The protective member is formed to protrude from the covering member and also with a substantially equivalent height to that of the protrusion. It is preferable that the protrusion is formed at facing edges of the case, and the protective member is formed between the protrusion.

主权项

1. A portable electronic device comprising:
a case comprising first and second cases, the first and second cases enclosing a speaker, a sensor, and a light source mounted inside the case; a covering member that covers the speaker, the sensor, and the light source mounted in a front part inside the case, the covering member being adapted to let light from the light source pass through and formed by a flexible member such as an acrylic member; a protrusion formed on the case, the protrusion protruding upward and forward from the case in a state where the first and second cases are closed; and a protective member that protects the covering member, wherein the protective member protrudes upward and forward from the case beyond the covering member and an upward height of the protective member is roughly equal to an upward height of the protrusion.
