Case Construction for an Electronic Device with Folding Device-Support Feature

摘要

A case construction selectively encases and displays an electronic device, and includes a device-retention mechanism and multi-section jacket. The device-retention mechanism removably retains the electronic device and includes an anterior device-retaining section and a posterior jacket-opposing section. The multi-section jacket includes a mechanism-backing section, a spine section, and a mechanism-covering section. The mechanism-backing section is dimensioned to cover the posterior jacket-opposing section and the mechanism-covering section is dimensioned to cover the anterior device-retaining section. The spine section pivotally connects the mechanism-covering section to the mechanism-backing section for enabling the user to selectively cover/uncover the device-retention mechanism. The mechanism-backing section and mechanism-covering section each include at least one foldable portion. The foldable portions are cooperatively foldable at the spine section for enabling the user to form a select case support footprint. The select case support footprint enables the user to selectively support the case in a select case orientation.

1. A case construction for selectively encasing and displaying an electronic device, the case construction comprising:
a device-retention mechanism, the device device-retention mechanism for removably retaining the electronic device, the device-retention mechanism comprising an anterior device-retaining section and a posterior jacket-opposing section; and a multi-section jacket, the multi-section jacket comprising a mechanism-backing section, a spine section, and a mechanism-covering section, the mechanism-backing section being dimensioned to cover the posterior jacket-opposing section, the mechanism-covering section being dimensioned to cover the anterior device-retaining section, the spine section for pivotally connecting the mechanism-covering section to the mechanism-backing section for enabling the user to selectively cover or uncover the device-retention mechanism, the mechanism-backing section and mechanism-covering section each comprising a foldable portion, the foldable portions being cooperatively foldable at the spine section for enabling the user to form a select case support footprint, the select case support footprint for enabling the user to selectively support the case in a select case orientation.
