Housing for encasing an object

摘要

An apparatus and system for housing a device include a housing that is configured such that a device may be fitted within the housing and thereby be protected, such as from shocks and/or liquid. The housing may include top and bottom members that may be removably coupled together so as to form the housing. Each top and bottom member optionally includes front and back surfaces surrounded by a perimeter. The perimeter is defined by proximal and distal ends as well as opposing sides. The top and bottom members may include respective clasping mechanisms that extend along the perimeter of the top and bottom members. The clasping mechanisms are configured for coupling the top and bottom members with one another thereby sealing the housing, for instance, in a shock-proof and/or water tight seal.

主权项

1. An apparatus for housing an electronic device comprising:
a top member having a perimeter portion forming a proximal end portion, a distal end portion, and opposing side portions, the top member having a front surface and a back surface spanning from the proximal end portion to the distal end portion and across the opposing side portions of the top member, the perimeter portion further having a first clasping mechanism; a bottom member having a front surface, a back surface, and a side wall that extends around at least a portion of a perimeter of the bottom member, the side wall having an inner surface, and an outer surface, and a top ridge that extends around at least the portion of the perimeter of the bottom member, the bottom member, which when coupled with the top member, forms a housing to enclose the electronic device and to position the perimeter portion of the top member over the inner surface of the top ridge of the side wall of the bottom member, the bottom member further having a second clasping mechanism on the side wall of the bottom member, the second clasping mechanism to interface with the first clasping mechanism of the top member to maintain the top member and the bottom member coupled together; and a bottom frame member configured to couple with the back surface of the bottom member and the outer surface of the side wall of the bottom frame member having a flexible portion.
