A laptop computer carrying case (10) transforms into a desktop (Fig. 1) for use of a laptop (26) or similar electronic device having a keyboard (28) and a hingeably openable display (30). The laptop key board (28) is held by bands (32, 34) in the bottom section (12) of the case and the display is held in the top section (14) of the case. Hinge structures (40, 50, 140, 150) are provided on the left and right sidewalls of the bottom section of the case. When the hinge structures (40, 50, 140, 150) are pivotally angularly separated, the bottom section (12) containing the keyboard (28) will be substantially horizontal enabling use of the laptop in a standing or mobile position (Fig. 1). When the laptop is not being used, the case may be closed and the hinge structures (40, 50, 140, 150) closed with the laptop being carried by the strap over the shoulder (Fig.2). The hinge structure is provided with structure (46, 48, 49, 148, 149) for limiting the amount by which the arms of the hinge may be pivotally angularly separated thereby providing stability to the laptop case in the desk top position. Detent means (70, 170) is provided to hold the arms (42, 44, 142, 144) of the hinge structure in aligned position when the case is being used to carry the laptop (Fig. 2). |
