Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mobile phone case design technology, and in particular to a flexible mobile phone case. Background Technology

[0002] With the widespread use of mobile devices, phone cases have become an indispensable accessory.

[0003] Currently, mainstream phone cases are still mainly made of hard plastics such as PC (polycarbonate) and ABS (such as the hard inner lining of Apple's official liquid silicone case), and are made thinner and lighter through injection molding. Although such cases have basic scratch resistance, they have the problem of rigid overload transmission—when dropped, the impact force is directly transmitted to the phone frame through the hard material, causing damage to internal components;

[0004] While flexible shells absorb impact through material deformation using soft materials such as silicone and TPU (e.g., UAG protective shells), they suffer from defects such as delayed rebound and structural collapse. Prolonged bending can easily lead to permanent deformation. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problem that flexible shells are prone to permanent deformation due to long-term bending in the prior art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A flexible mobile phone casing includes a base plate and side plates. The base plate is used to support the back of the mobile phone and is flexible. The side plates are perpendicular to the base plate and surround the outer periphery of the base plate. The side plates include two horizontal side plates and two vertical side plates. The two horizontal side plates are located at both ends of the base plate in the length direction, and the two vertical side plates are located at both ends of the base plate in the width direction. Each of the two vertical side plates is composed of a plurality of circular patches arranged in an array along the length direction of the base plate, and the patches on the two vertical side plates are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0008] Preferably, adjacent patches are connected by a crossbar.

[0009] Preferably, an airbag is provided between corresponding patches on the two longitudinal side plates. The airbag is located on the side of the bottom plate away from the mobile phone, and the two ends of the airbag are respectively connected to the patches on both sides.

[0010] Preferably, the airbag extends along the width of the base plate, and the base plate has a plurality of grooves on the side pointing towards the mobile phone, with the airbag spaced apart from the grooves.

[0011] Preferably, the base plate is rectangular, has a camera hole, and also has a flexible magnetic ring.

[0012] Preferably, a bracket is also provided on the side of the base plate opposite to the mobile phone. The bracket is rectangular and extends along the width of the base plate.

[0013] Preferably, adjacent transverse and longitudinal side panels are connected by anti-drop protrusions.

[0014] Preferably, the bottom horizontal side plate is provided with a plurality of through holes, which are mobile phone charging holes and volume holes.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, this application has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. Through the design of circular patches and flexible base plates, the phone case can be bent and deformed at any angle, whether the phone is attached or not, reducing the risk of damage to the phone from the hard case.

[0017] 2. By setting up airbags, the drop protection performance of the phone case is improved. The case in this application can be bent and deformed inward and outward at any angle with or without a phone attached, reducing the risk of damage to the phone from the hard case.

[0018] 3. The combination of the groove and the airbag makes it easier to bend the phone case. Furthermore, the combination of the groove and the airbag further protects the phone from damage by hard materials, while also enhancing heat dissipation and breathability. In addition, the spacing between the two effectively avoids interference between functional areas.

[0019] 4. Customizable patterns on the patch surface balance product aesthetics and personalization needs. Attached Figure Description
