[0030] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 An embodiment of the present application provides a protective case, including a shell 10 and a lanyard connection assembly 20.

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, the housing 10 includes a bottom wall 12 and a peripheral side wall 13 connected to each other. The peripheral side wall 13 and the bottom wall 12 enclose a receiving cavity 11, which is used to receive the electronic device. In other words, the housing 10 is used to receive the electronic device to protect the electronic device.

[0032] It is understandable that the electronic device may be a mobile phone, a tablet, etc.

[0033] See also Figure 2 , the bottom wall 12 is provided with a first groove 121. Figure 3 The peripheral side wall 13 or the bottom wall 12 is provided with a through hole 14, and the hole wall of the through hole 14 forms a continuous structure surrounding the through hole 14. Figure 4The lanyard connection assembly 20 includes a tongue plate 21, a connection structure 22 and a lanyard connection structure 23 that are connected to each other. The tongue plate 21 is arranged in the first groove 121. One end of the connection structure 22 is connected to the tongue plate 21. The other end of the connection structure 22 passes through the through hole 14 and extends to the outside of the shell 10. The lanyard connection structure 23 is located outside the shell 10 and is connected to the end of the connection structure 22 away from the tongue plate 21.

[0034] In this embodiment, after the electronic device is placed in the accommodating cavity 11, the lanyard connection structure 23 is used to connect the lanyard, which can be hung around the neck or arm of the human body, making the electronic device easy to carry. The tongue plate 21 and a portion of the connection structure 22 in the accommodating cavity 11 are located between the electronic device and the bottom wall 12 of the housing 10, that is, the electronic device can form a limiting effect on the tongue plate 21 to constrain the tongue plate 21 in the first groove 121, which helps to increase the stability of the tongue plate 21 in the protective shell, thereby increasing the stability of the lanyard connection structure 23 installed in the protective shell, and by placing the tongue plate 21 in the first groove 121, it helps to reduce the possibility of the tongue plate 21 protruding from the bottom wall 12 of the housing 10, thereby minimizing the interference of the tongue plate 21 with the electronic device in the accommodating cavity 11, that is, minimizing the unevenness of the electronic device after being placed in the accommodating cavity 11. The through hole 14 can form a limit for the connecting structure 22, so that the connecting structure 22 will not separate from the shell 10 along the thickness direction of the tongue plate 21, further increasing the stability of the lanyard connecting structure 23 installed on the protective shell, and also helps to reduce the force exerted by the connecting structure 22 on the electronic device along the thickness direction of the tongue plate 21, which helps to increase the stability of the electronic device in the accommodating cavity 11.

[0035] That is to say, the protective case of the embodiment of the present application not only protects the electronic device but also helps to increase the portability of the electronic device.

[0036] It is understandable that the through hole 14 can be provided on the bottom wall 12 or the peripheral side wall 13 , or can be provided at the junction of the bottom wall 12 and the peripheral side wall 13 .

[0037] For example, the thickness direction is Figure 1 and Figure 2 Directions shown in .

[0038] For example, Figure 1 As shown, the protective case further includes a stopper 15 connected to the bottom wall 12, and at least a portion of the stopper 15 extends to the side of the tongue plate 21 facing the accommodating cavity 11, thereby constraining the tongue plate 21 in the first groove 121. In other words, the stopper 15 can limit the tongue plate 21 along the thickness direction, thereby increasing the stability of the tongue plate 21 in the first groove 121.

[0039] In some embodiments, the tongue plate 21 abuts against the stopper 15 along its thickness direction and on one side away from the bottom wall 12. That is, the stopper 15 and the bottom wall 12 of the housing 10 can form a clamping effect on the tongue plate 21, thereby further increasing the stability of the tongue plate 21 in the first groove 121.

[0040] For some examples, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The surface of the stopper 15 facing the accommodating cavity 11 is flush with the surface of the bottom wall 12 facing the accommodating cavity 11. In this way, the stopper 15 is prevented from interfering with the electronic device as much as possible, thereby minimizing the unevenness of the electronic device after being placed in the accommodating cavity 11, thereby improving the comfort of using the protective case.

[0041] In some embodiments, the stopper 15 and the bottom wall 12 are integrally formed so that the stopper 15 is directly fixed to the bottom wall 12 , thereby improving the stability of the stopper 15 and reducing the assembly effort between the stopper 15 and the bottom wall 12 .

[0042] For example, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The bottom wall 12 is further provided with a sliding groove 122 connected to the first groove 121. The sliding groove 122 is provided on the side of the first groove 121 away from the connecting structure 22. The stopper 15 has an opening 151 for allowing the connecting structure 22 to be placed in the first groove 121. The tongue plate 21 can be placed in the sliding groove 122 and can be moved from the sliding groove 122 to the first groove 121. When assembling the lanyard connecting structure 23, the tongue plate 21 is placed in the sliding groove 122, and the connecting structure 22 is placed in the first groove 121 through the opening 151. The other end of the connecting structure 22 is passed through the through hole 14. Then, a tensile force is applied to the other end of the connecting structure 22, so that the connecting structure 22 can drive the tongue plate 21 to slide from the sliding groove 122 into the first groove 121. The entire process is simple and convenient to operate, which helps to increase the assemblability of the lanyard connecting structure 23.

[0043] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the peripheral side wall 13 of the housing 10 is provided with a relief opening 131, which is used for allowing an external connector to pass through the relief opening 131 and be inserted into the interface of the electronic device placed in the accommodating cavity 11. The through hole 14 is not connected to the relief opening 131, and the through hole 14 is located on the side of the relief opening 131 close to the bottom wall 12. In this embodiment, the through hole 14 is not connected to the relief opening 131 to minimize interference with the external connector by the connection structure 22 in the through hole 14. Moreover, the through hole 14 is located on the side of the relief opening 131 close to the bottom wall 12, which can minimize obstruction of the external connector by the connection structure 22 and the lanyard connection structure 23, thereby minimizing the impact on user comfort.

[0044] In some embodiments, the tongue plate 21, the connecting structure 22, and the lanyard connecting structure 23 are arranged along a first direction, and both sides of the tongue plate 21 along a second direction respectively abut against the two groove walls of the first groove 121, wherein the second direction is perpendicular to both the first direction and the thickness direction of the tongue plate 21. By the two sides of the tongue plate 21 along the second direction respectively abutting against the two groove walls of the first groove 121, that is, the two groove walls of the first groove 121 form a clamping effect on the tongue plate 21, the stability of the tongue plate 21 within the first groove 121 is increased.

[0045] It can be understood that the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction and the thickness direction of the tongue plate 21 , and the perpendicularity here can allow a certain installation and assembly error.

[0046] For example, the first direction is Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 4 Directions shown in .

[0047] For example, the second direction is Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 4 Directions shown in .

[0048] In some embodiments, the tongue plate 21 and the connecting structure 22 are integrally formed, which helps to increase the connection stability between the tongue plate 21 and the connecting structure 22 and reduces the assembly effort between the tongue plate 21 and the connecting structure 22 .

[0049] For example, Figure 3 As shown, the bottom wall 12 is further provided with a second groove 123, which connects the first groove 121 and the through hole 14, and the connecting structure 22 is accommodated in the second groove 123. In other words, the second groove 123 cooperates with the connecting structure 22 to help reduce the possibility of the connecting structure 22 protruding from the bottom wall 12 of the housing 10, thereby minimizing the interference of the connecting structure 22 with the electronic device in the accommodating cavity 11, and further reducing the unevenness of the electronic device after being placed in the accommodating cavity 11.

[0050] In some embodiments, the connection structure 22 and the through hole 14 form an interference fit along the thickness direction of the tongue plate 21. This allows the hole wall of the through hole 14 along the thickness direction of the tongue plate 21 to squeeze and limit the connection structure 22, minimizing the shaking of the connection structure 22 along the thickness direction and further reducing the impact of the connection structure 22 on the electronic device along the thickness direction. This helps to increase the installation stability of the connection structure 22 and the stability of the electronic device within the accommodating cavity 11.

[0051] In some embodiments, the lanyard connection structure 23 and the connection structure 22 are separate structures. This allows the other end of the connection structure 22 to pass through the through hole 14 before connecting to the lanyard connection structure during assembly of the lanyard connection assembly 20. This helps reduce the interference of the lanyard connection structure 23 with the assembly process of the lanyard connection assembly 20.

[0052] For example, Figure 4 As shown, the lanyard connection structure 23 is designed to be ring-shaped, so that the lanyard can be easily passed through the ring-shaped lanyard connection structure 23, thereby improving the user's comfort.

[0053] In the description of this application, the description with reference to the terms "one embodiment", "some embodiments", "example", "specific example", or "some examples" means that the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described in conjunction with the embodiment or example are included in at least one embodiment or example of the embodiments of the present application. In this application, the schematic representations of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described can be combined in any one or more embodiments or examples in a suitable manner. In addition, those skilled in the art can combine different embodiments or examples described in this application and features of different embodiments or examples without contradiction.

[0054] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. Persons skilled in the art will readily appreciate that various modifications and variations are possible. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included within the scope of protection of the present application.
