Problems solved by technology

However, existing interchangeable phone cases made of hard plastic material cannot be made with different keypad designs because the keyholes of the hard plastic case must correspond to the design of the fixed keypad incorporated on the phone
[0006] Thus, existing phones and housings do not provide sufficient variability to accommodate a cell phone and the like that repeatedly change size and shape while being interchangeable to reduce the number of parts and provide the necessary protection for internal circuitry. Personal Electronics

Abstract

An assembly for a mobile terminal, or a portable electronic device such as a cellular telephone or a personal digital assistant, is provided that includes a chassis with a locking perimeter and at least one covering, such as a front and / or a rear cover, with a locking edge. A cover may include a void or window for viewing a display of the electronic device and a keymat to control the electronic device. The chassis may include a convex groove in which a bracelet or wrap may be included.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to housings for mobile terminals, and more particularly to interlocking housings for mobile phones and other mobile terminals. Background technique [0002] The current cellular telephone industry involves a rich product and service market. Companies are constantly competing to introduce new products with improved technologies. At the same time, manufacturers are constantly striving to provide an easy-to-use phone design that provides maximum conceptual impact with a minimum of production and architectural effort. The endless cycle of competition encourages manufacturers to produce phones in different shapes and sizes to differentiate their phones from those of competitors. Typically, each phone of different shapes and sizes requires a different housing which in turn reduces the consolidation of components between the different phones because components of one phone cannot be used or adapted to another phone. ...
