Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a terminal holder, and particularly to a terminal holder for holding a mobile terminal.

Background Art

[0002] Conventionally, a terminal holder is known in which a user holds a mobile terminal or a terminal storage case by sandwiching a sandwiched portion (for example, Patent Document 1). The substantially circular holding portion provided at the end of the terminal holder has a floor contact portion that contacts the floor when the terminal storage case is placed on the floor, and a terminal contact portion that contacts the terminal storage case. When the terminal storage case is placed vertically, the terminal contact portion contacts the second contact portion provided on the terminal storage case and the floor contact portion contacts the floor. When the terminal storage case is placed horizontally, the terminal contact portion contacts the first contact portion provided on the terminal storage case and the floor contact portion contacts the floor.

[0003] By bringing the terminal contact portion into contact with the first contact portion and bringing the floor contact portion into contact with the floor, the terminal storage case can be placed horizontally. Also, by bringing the terminal contact portion into contact with the second contact portion and bringing the floor contact portion into contact with the floor, the terminal storage case can be placed vertically. Thereby, the terminal storage case can be placed horizontally or vertically with one holding portion. Further, by directly attaching the terminal holder to the mobile terminal, the same effect can be obtained.

[0004] Another terminal holder has a holding portion provided at the end in the extending direction of the sandwiched portion, and prevents a finger from slipping off the sandwiched portion by bringing a finger into contact with the holding portion (for example, Patent Document 2). A finger insertion space is defined in the sandwiched portion, and a ring finger or a little finger can be inserted to hold a mobile terminal or a terminal storage case.

Patent Document 1

[0006] When the terminal holder described in Patent Document 1 places the terminal storage case on the floor surface, it is difficult to stably place it on the floor surface depending on the shape of the back surface of the terminal storage case. In particular, in the case of a shape in which the central portion slightly curves and protrudes on the back surface of the terminal storage case or the mobile terminal, the terminal contact portion and the terminal holder are in contact only at the protruding point, and there is a lack of stability such as wobbling during placement. Similarly, the floor contact portion that contacts the floor surface is also in an unstable state because it contacts the floor surface at a point. This problem occurred in the same way whether the terminal storage case was placed vertically or horizontally.

[0007] In addition, in the terminal holder described in Patent Document 1, since only one inclination angle could be set, it was sometimes difficult to see due to reflection on the liquid crystal screen of the mobile terminal, and an angle adjustment function was required.

[0008] Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a terminal holder that can vertically and horizontally place a mobile terminal and a terminal storage case in a stable state. [Means for Solving the Problems]

[0009] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a terminal holder for holding a terminal storage case that covers a mobile terminal, the terminal holder including a fixing portion fixed to the terminal storage case, a connecting portion extending in an extending direction from the fixing portion and made of a flexible material, and a holding portion provided at an end portion of the connecting portion in the extending direction and against which a finger extending in a pointing direction abuts when the terminal holder is held. The holding portion includes a first abutting portion that can abut against the terminal storage case and a second abutting portion that can abut against the floor surface when the terminal storage case is placed on the floor surface so as to be inclined. At least one of the first abutting portion and the second abutting portion has both ends protruding in the pointing direction and a central portion recessed, and the protruding portions at positions spaced apart from the recessed position can abut against the terminal storage case, the mobile terminal, or the floor surface.

[0010] Further, the fixing portion is sandwiched between the mobile terminal and the terminal storage case, and the connecting portion preferably passes through a power through-hole into which a terminal for charging the mobile terminal is inserted among through-holes formed in a side surface of the terminal storage case.

[0011] The connecting portion further includes a first finger insertion portion extending from the fixing portion and connected to the holding portion, and a second finger insertion portion extending from the fixing portion and connected to the holding portion at a position different from the holding portion. The sum of the widths of portions of the first finger insertion portion and the second finger insertion portion passing through the power through-hole is preferably equal to or less than the width of the power through-hole.

[0012] Preferably, the first abutting portion can abut against a liquid crystal screen of the mobile terminal stored in the terminal storage case when the terminal storage case is placed on the floor surface so as to be inclined.

[0013] The connecting portion defines a finger insertion space into which the finger is inserted in a finger insertion direction, and at least one of the first abutting portion and the second abutting portion preferably has a recessed central portion in the finger insertion direction.

[0014] In another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a terminal holder for holding a mobile terminal, comprising: a fixing portion fixed to the back surface of the mobile terminal; a connecting portion extending in an extending direction from the fixing portion and made of a flexible material; and a holding portion provided at an end portion of the connecting portion in the extending direction, against which a finger extending in a pointing direction abuts when the terminal holder is held. The holding portion has a first abutting portion that can abut against the mobile terminal and a second abutting portion that can abut against the floor surface when the mobile terminal is placed on the floor surface so as to be inclined. At least one of the first abutting portion and the second abutting portion has both ends protruding in the pointing direction and a central portion recessed, and can abut against the mobile terminal or the floor surface at a protruding portion at a position spaced apart from the recessed position in the pointing direction.

[0015] In another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a terminal holder for holding a mobile terminal, comprising: a fixing portion fixed to the back surface of the mobile terminal; a connecting portion extending in an extending direction from the fixing portion and made of a flexible material; and a holding portion provided at an end portion of the connecting portion in the extending direction, against which a finger extending in a pointing direction abuts when the terminal holder is held. The holding portion has a first abutting portion that can abut against the fixing portion and a second abutting portion that can abut against the floor surface when the mobile terminal is placed on the floor surface so as to be inclined. At least one of the first abutting portion and the second abutting portion has both ends protruding in the pointing direction and a central portion recessed, and can abut against the mobile terminal or the floor surface at a protruding portion at a position spaced apart from the recessed position in the pointing direction.

[0016] Further, the holding portion preferably has a cover portion having a surface against which a finger abuts and a lid portion provided detachably on the cover portion on a surface opposite to the surface against which the finger abuts, and a sheet can be inserted between the lid portion and the cover portion.

[0017] Further, the holding portion preferably has a substantially rectangular shape when viewed from the extending direction, and at least one of the sides of the rectangle is recessed inward.

[0018] Further, the holding portion is composed of a reinforcing member having rigidity and an outer cover detachably provided on the reinforcing member, and it is preferable that the outer cover is provided on the side opposite to the surface to which the connecting portion is connected.

Advantages of the Invention

[0019] According to such a configuration, since at least one of the two ends of the first abutting portion and the second abutting portion protrudes, the terminal storage case can be stably placed vertically or horizontally by abutting the protruding portion against the terminal storage case, the mobile terminal, or the floor surface. Further, since the central portion is recessed to protrude both ends, a terminal holder capable of stably holding the terminal storage case with a simple structure can be realized. Furthermore, since the connecting portion is made of a material having flexibility, the terminal storage case can be placed vertically and horizontally. Also, due to the flexibility of the connecting portion, the angle of the terminal storage case can be set at a desired position by finely adjusting the position of the holding portion.

[0020] By abutting the first abutting portion against the terminal storage case and the second abutting portion against the floor surface, the terminal storage case can be placed horizontally or vertically. Thereby, the terminal storage case can be placed horizontally or vertically with one holding portion. Also, since a holding portion against which a finger abuts is provided, it is possible to prevent the mobile terminal from dropping even if the hand is accidentally removed from the terminal storage case. Further, since the holding portion is provided at the end of the connecting portion, the terminal storage case can be stably held. Furthermore, since the holding portion that supports the finger when holding the terminal storage case also serves as a member that supports the terminal storage case when placed on the floor surface, the number of parts can be reduced and the manufacturing cost can be suppressed.

[0021] With such a configuration, since the fixing portion is sandwiched between the mobile terminal and the terminal storage case, it is possible to prevent the terminal holder from being detached from the terminal storage case. Further, since the connection portion passes through the power through-hole to which the charging terminal is connected, the terminal holder 1 will protrude from the lower end of the mobile terminal. As a result, the fulcrum when holding the terminal storage case will be located at the lower part of the terminal storage case, and it becomes possible to stably hold the terminal storage case. Furthermore, since the power through-hole is often formed substantially at the center of the bottom surface of the terminal storage case, it becomes possible to stably place the terminal storage case vertically and horizontally.

[0022] With such a configuration, since the sum of the width of the portion passing through the power through-hole of the first connection and the width of the portion passing through the power through-hole of the second connection portion is equal to or less than the width of the power through-hole, it is possible to avoid the first connection portion and the second connection portion overlapping in the power through-hole. As a result, it is possible to avoid a state where the power through-hole is blocked by the connection portion and it is difficult to insert the charging terminal. In addition, it is possible to prevent the connection state from becoming unstable due to the charging terminal inserted into the power through-hole interfering with the connection portion.

[0023] With such a configuration, since the first contact portion can contact the liquid crystal screen of the mobile terminal when the terminal storage case is placed on the floor surface, it is possible to take a picture with the camera provided on the back while the mobile terminal is placed on the floor surface. As a result, it becomes possible to take pictures such as videos and photos by oneself without asking a third party to take the picture. Furthermore, since the camera can be placed on the floor surface while facing obliquely upward, it is possible to take videos and the like even if the height at which the mobile terminal is placed is low.

[0024] With such a configuration, since at least one of the two ends of the first abutting portion and the second abutting portion protrudes, the protruding portion abuts against the mobile terminal or the floor surface, so that the mobile terminal can be stably placed vertically or horizontally. In addition, since the central portion is recessed to protrude the two ends, a terminal holder capable of stably holding the mobile terminal with a simple structure can be realized. Furthermore, since the connecting portion is made of a flexible material, the mobile terminal can be placed vertically and horizontally. In addition, due to the flexibility of the connecting portion, the angle of the mobile terminal can be set to a desired position by finely adjusting the position of the holding portion.

[0025] By abutting the first abutting portion against the mobile terminal and the second abutting portion against the floor surface, the mobile terminal can be placed horizontally or vertically. Thereby, the mobile terminal can be placed horizontally or vertically with one holding portion. In addition, since a holding portion against which a finger abuts is provided, it is possible to prevent the mobile terminal from falling even if the hand accidentally leaves the mobile terminal. In addition, since the holding portion is provided at the end of the connecting portion, the mobile terminal can be stably held. Furthermore, since the holding portion that supports the finger when holding the mobile terminal also serves as a member that supports when placed on the floor surface, the number of parts can be reduced and the manufacturing cost can be suppressed.

[0026] With such a configuration, since the lid portion and the cover portion are detachable and a sheet can be inserted therebetween, the user can use a sheet printed with a desired character or the like on the holding portion. In addition, by replacing the sheet, a terminal holder according to the user's preference can be realized.

[0027] With such a configuration, since the holding portion is substantially rectangular when viewed from the extending direction, the inclination angle can be changed depending on whether the terminal storage case is supported by the long side or the short side of the rectangle. Thereby, the inclination angle can be adjusted according to the reflection of the liquid crystal screen of the mobile terminal or the like.

[0028] According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a terminal holder that can stably hold a terminal storage case or a mobile terminal in a vertical or horizontal position.

Embodiments for Carrying Out the Invention

[0030] The terminal holder 1 according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 13. As shown in the figures, the front-back, up-down, left-right directions are defined.

[0031] The terminal holder 1 is attached to a terminal storage case 10 that houses a portable terminal 10A (FIG. 12), and is composed of a fixing portion 2, a finger insertion portion 3, and a holding portion 4. The portable terminal 10A has a liquid crystal screen 10C (FIG. 12) and a camera 10D (FIG. 9) that display various information. The portable terminal 10A is a smartphone or a tablet, but is not limited thereto as long as it is a thin terminal capable of displaying information. The terminal holder 1 is exposed to the outside through a power through-hole 10a formed in the terminal storage case 10 for inserting the charging terminal of the portable terminal 10A.

[0032] The fixing portion 2 and the finger insertion portion 3 are made of a flexible material, and materials such as cloth, chemical fiber, leather, artificial leather, and resin can be arbitrarily selected. An adhesive tape is provided on the back surface of the fixing portion 2 to be attached to the inner surface of the terminal storage case 10. The fixing portion 2 has a first fixing portion 21 and a second fixing portion 22 adjacent to the first fixing portion 21. The fixing portion 2 is integrally formed with the finger insertion portion 3, but the fixing portion 2 and the finger insertion portion 3 may be separate. When the portable terminal 10A is stored in the terminal storage case 10, the fixing portion 2 is sandwiched between the terminal storage case 10 and the portable terminal 10A, making it difficult to come off. In the present embodiment, the fixing portion 2 is fixed to the inner surface of the terminal storage case 10, but is not limited thereto and may be fixed to the outer surface of the terminal storage case 10. When fixing to the outside of the terminal storage case 10, a character or the like may be printed on the fixing portion 2. The finger insertion portion 3 is an example of the connection portion of the present invention.

[0033] The finger insertion part 3 extends downward from the center in the left - right direction at the lower end of the fixed part 2 and does not overlap with the fixed part 2 when viewed from the front - rear direction. The finger insertion part 3 has a substantially flat plate shape with a width in the left - right direction, and a finger insertion space 3a shown by hatching in FIG. 3 is defined, and a holding part 4 is provided at the lower end (tip). The finger insertion part 3 has a first finger insertion part 31 connected to the first fixed part 21 and a second finger insertion part 32 connected to the second fixed part 22. As shown in the hatched area of FIG. 3, the space surrounded by the first finger insertion part 31, the second finger insertion part 32, and the holding part 4 is the finger insertion space 3a. The first finger insertion part 31 is an example of the first connection part of the present invention, and the second finger insertion part 32 is an example of the second connection part of the present invention.

[0034] The first finger insertion part 31 has a first narrow part 33 which connects the first fixed part 21 and the holding part 4 and is the part passing through the power supply through - hole 10a of the terminal storage case 10, and a first connection part 34 connected to the holding part 4. The width of the first narrow part 33 in the left - right direction is approximately half of the left - right width of the power supply through - hole 10a. After passing through the power supply through - hole 10a, the width of the first finger insertion part 31 in the left - right direction expands and reaches the holding part 4. The second finger insertion part 32 has a second narrow part 35 which connects the second fixed part 22 and the holding part 4 and is the part passing through the power supply through - hole 10a of the terminal storage case 10, and a second connection part 36 connected to the holding part 4. The width of the second narrow part 35 in the left - right direction is approximately half of the left - right width of the power supply through - hole 10a. After passing through the power supply through - hole 10a, the width of the second finger insertion part 32 in the left - right direction expands and reaches the holding part 4.

[0035] As shown in FIG. 4, the first narrow part 33 and the second narrow part 35 are located in the power supply through - hole 10a without overlapping each other. Thereby, even when an adapter for charging the portable terminal 10A is inserted into the power supply through - hole 10a, the first narrow part 33 and the second narrow part 35 do not interfere with the adapter, and charging can be performed smoothly.

[0036] As shown in FIG. 1, the first connecting portion 34 and the second connecting portion 36 are spaced apart from each other in the front-rear direction. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, the fixing portion 2 and the finger insertion portion 3 are integrally formed. Specifically, the fixing portion 2 and the finger insertion portion 3 are configured to extend from the first fixing portion 21 through the first narrow portion 33 to the first connecting portion 34, pass through the inside of the holding portion 4, and extend from the second connecting portion 36 through the second narrow portion 35 to the second fixing portion 22.

[0037] It is preferable that about one or two fingers can be inserted into the finger insertion space 3a, and it can be arbitrarily set by adjusting the vertical length of the finger insertion portion 3 and the front-rear distance between the first connecting portion 34 and the second connecting portion 36. As shown in FIG. 12, when the little finger 55 is inserted into the finger insertion space 3a of the finger insertion portion 3, the terminal holder 1 is held by the user. The downward direction in which the finger insertion portion 3 extends is an example of the extending direction of the present invention, and the left-right direction in which the little finger 55 is inserted into the finger insertion space 3a is an example of the pointing direction of the present invention. The finger insertion portion 3 is made of a tape-like flexible material, but is not limited thereto and may be a string-like material.

[0038] The holding portion 4 is substantially rectangular, and the first connecting portion 34 and the second connecting portion 36 are fixed thereto. The holding portion 4 serves to prevent the little finger 55 from falling out of the finger insertion portion 3 when the little finger 55 is inserted into the finger insertion space 3a, and also serves to support the terminal holder 1 when the terminal holder 1 is placed on the floor surface F.

[0039] As shown in FIG. 2, the holding portion 4 is formed with rounded corners at the four corners, and the substantially central portions of each side are configured to be recessed inward. Here, the inside means the direction toward the central portion of the holding portion 4 in FIG. 2. By printing a character or the like on the lower surface of the holding portion 4, the terminal holder 1 can be sold as a character good.

[0040] As shown in FIGS. 2 and 8, when the terminal storage case 10 is placed vertically on the floor surface F, the holding portion 4 has a front contact portion 41 that contacts the outer surface of the terminal storage case 10 and a rear contact portion 42 that contacts the floor surface F when the terminal holder 1 is placed vertically on the floor surface F. The holding portion 4 is a substantially square with one side being about 40 mm, and the rear contact portion 42 is provided on the opposite side in the front-rear direction of the front contact portion 41.

[0041] As shown in FIG. 2, the approximate center in the left-right direction of the front contact portion 41 and the rear contact portion 42 is recessed inward. The front contact portion 41 has a right front contact portion 41A located at the right end and a left front contact portion 41B located at the left end. The right front contact portion 41A and the left front contact portion 41B are rounded at the corners of the holding portion 4. As shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, when the terminal storage case 10 is placed vertically, the right front contact portion 41A and the left front contact portion 41B contact the back surface 10B of the terminal storage case 10, respectively.

[0042] The rear contact portion 42 has a right rear contact portion 42A located at the right end and a left rear contact portion 42B located at the left end. The right rear contact portion 42A and the left rear contact portion 42B are rounded at the corners of the holding portion 4. As shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, when the terminal storage case 10 is placed vertically, the right rear contact portion 42A and the left rear contact portion 42B contact the floor surface F, respectively.

[0043] As shown in FIG. 5, the terminal holder 1 has a fixed portion 2 and a finger insertion portion 3 integrally formed, and is fixed by passing the finger insertion portion 3 through the holding portion 4. The holding portion 4 further has an inner cover 43, a reinforcing material 44, and an outer cover 45. Two holding holes 43a into which the finger insertion portion 3 is inserted are formed in the inner cover 43. The holding holes 43a have substantially the same shape, are spaced apart from each other, and are slightly wider than the first connecting portion 34 and the second connecting portion 36.

[0044] The reinforcing member 44 is a member that maintains the strength of the holding portion 4 and is made of resin, but is not limited thereto, and may be made of wood, silicon, metal, or the like. By changing the thickness and material of the reinforcing member 44, the texture and weight of the holding portion 4 can be changed. Since the outer cover 45 is the surface that is exposed to the outside when the terminal storage case 10 is placed vertically as shown in FIG. 8, it can be used as a good by printing a character or the like.

[0045] When assembling the terminal holder 1, the first fixing portion 21 and the first finger insertion portion 31 are inserted into one holding hole 43a and exposed from the other holding hole 43a. As a result, the first fixing portion 21 and the first finger insertion portion 31 are exposed from one holding hole 43a, and the second fixing portion 22 and the second finger insertion portion 32 are exposed from the other holding hole 43a. The inner cover 43 to which the fixing portion 2 and the finger insertion portion 3 are fixed, the reinforcing member 44, and the outer cover 45 are adhered. By attaching an adhesive seal to the first fixing portion 21 and the second fixing portion 22, the terminal holder 1 is completed.

[0046] When attaching the terminal holder 1 to the terminal storage case 10, the first fixing portion 21 is folded small and inserted into the power through hole 10a, and the second fixing portion 22 is folded small and inserted into the power through hole 10a. By fixing the first fixing portion 21 and the second fixing portion 22 inside the terminal storage case 10 so as to be adjacent to each other, the terminal holder 1 is fixed to the terminal storage case 10 as shown in FIGS. 1 and 10.

[0047] Next, FIGS. 6 and 7 show the state when the terminal storage case 10 is placed horizontally on the floor surface F. On the back surface 10B of the terminal storage case 10, a first protrusion 11 and a second protrusion 12 arranged at intervals in the left-right direction of the first protrusion 11 are provided. The first protrusion 11 and the second protrusion 12 protrude rearward and can come into contact with the holding portion 4.

[0048] As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, when the terminal storage case 10 is placed horizontally on the floor surface F, the left front contact portion 41B and the left rear contact portion 42B come into contact with the floor surface F, and the terminal storage case 10 comes into contact with the vicinity of the right front contact portion 41A and the right rear contact portion 42A, so that the terminal storage case 10 is maintained in an inclined state. At this time, when the right front contact portion 41A comes into contact with the left side surface of the first protrusion portion 11, the front contact portion 41 is fixed without sliding on the back surface 10B of the terminal storage case 10. Thereby, the terminal storage case 10 can be placed horizontally on the floor surface F stably.

[0049] In the state shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the holding portion 4 and the terminal storage case 10 are in contact with each other at the lower part near the right rear contact portion 42A on the side connecting the right rear contact portion 42A and the right front contact portion 41A. Note that by adjusting the lengths of the first finger insertion portion 31 and the second finger insertion portion 32, the right rear contact portion 42A and the terminal storage case 10 may be brought into contact with each other. Thereby, since both upper and lower ends of the holding portion 4 come into contact with the back surface 10B of the terminal storage case 10, the terminal storage case 10 can be placed horizontally on the floor surface F stably.

[0050] As shown by the dashed line in FIG. 7(b), a first virtual triangle T1 is formed as a triangle abc by the floor surface F, the terminal storage case 10, and the holding portion 4. A second virtual triangle T2 is formed as a triangle cde by the holding portion 4, the upper portion of the terminal storage case 10, and the upper portion of the holding portion 4. At this time, since the point e is located approximately at the center of the side ac, the holding portion 4 can stably support the terminal storage case 10. At this time, a certain tension is applied to the finger insertion portion 3.

[0051] Specifically, tension is applied to one side in the width direction (left - right direction) of the finger insertion part 3, and the other side is loose. Due to the state where tension is applied to the finger insertion part 3, the holding part 4 does not separate from the terminal storage case 10 and can maintain the inclined state of the terminal storage case 10. When the second virtual triangle T2 with the finger insertion part 3 as a side is formed, the first virtual triangle T1 is stabilized, so that the terminal storage case 10 can maintain the inclined state. When the terminal storage case 10 is placed horizontally, the right front contact part 41A and the right rear contact part 42A are an example of the first contact part of the present invention, and the left front contact part 41B and the left rear contact part 42B are an example of the second contact part of the present invention.

[0052] As shown in FIG. 8, when the terminal storage case 10 is placed vertically on the floor surface F, the rear contact part 42 contacts the floor surface F and the front contact part 41 contacts the back surface 10B, so that the terminal storage case 10 is maintained in an inclined state. Specifically, as shown by the dotted line in FIG. 9, the right front contact part 41A and the left front contact part 41B contact the back surface 10B of the terminal storage case 10 near the first protrusion part 11 and the second protrusion part 12, and the right rear contact part 42A and the left rear contact part 42B contact the floor surface F.

[0053] As shown in FIG. 8, a third virtual triangle T3, which is a triangle fgh indicated by a dashed - dotted line, is formed by the floor surface F, the terminal storage case 10, and the holding part 4. A fourth virtual triangle T4, which is a triangle fhi indicated by a dashed - dotted line, is formed by the second finger insertion part 32, the lower part of the terminal storage case 10, and the upper part of the holding part 4. A fifth virtual triangle T5, which is a triangle fgj indicated by a dashed - dotted line, is formed by the first finger insertion part 31, the floor surface F, and the lower part of the holding part 4. A sixth virtual triangle T6, which is a triangle fij indicated by a dashed - dotted line, is formed by the first finger insertion part 31, the central part of the holding part 4, and the second finger insertion part 32.

[0054] In the vertical state, the finger insertion part 3 is positioned so as to extend from the point f toward the side hg. In other words, the first finger insertion part 31 and the second finger insertion part 32 extend from the lower end part of the terminal storage case 10 and are connected to the holding part 4 with a space therebetween. Thereby, the holding part 4 can stably support the terminal storage case 10. Since the first finger insertion part 31 and the second finger insertion part 32 are connected to the holding part 4 while being separated from each other, three triangles, namely, the fourth virtual triangle T4, the fifth virtual triangle T5, and the sixth virtual triangle T6, are formed within the third virtual triangle T3. At this time, a certain tension is applied to the first finger insertion part 31 and the second finger insertion part 32. Due to the state in which tension is applied to the finger insertion part 3, the holding part 4 can maintain the inclined state of the terminal storage case 10 without being separated from the terminal storage case 10.

[0055] As shown in FIG. 11, by bringing the front contact part 41 into contact with the liquid crystal screen 10C of the mobile terminal 10A instead of the back surface 10B, as shown by the solid line, the terminal storage case 10 can be placed on the floor surface F so that the camera 10D of the mobile terminal 10A faces obliquely upward. By using the self-timer, even a single person can take a picture with the camera 10D of the mobile terminal 10A. When the terminal storage case 10 is placed vertically, the right rear contact part 42A and the left rear contact part 42B are examples of the first contact part of the present invention, and the right front contact part 41A and the left front contact part 41B are examples of the second contact part of the present invention.

[0056] Next, a method for holding the terminal storage case 10 using the terminal holder 1 will be described with reference to FIGS. 12 and 13. A mobile terminal 10A is stored in the terminal storage case 10 to which the terminal holder 1 is attached. The user grips the terminal storage case 10 with the index finger 52 and the middle finger 53, inserts the little finger 55 into the finger insertion space 3a of the finger insertion portion 3 while supporting the back surface 10B of the terminal storage case 10 with the ring finger 54. At this time, the user's ring finger 54 and little finger 55 are in contact with the holding portion 4. Note that the terminal storage case 10 may be held by sandwiching the first finger insertion portion 31 and the second finger insertion portion 32 with the ring finger 54 and the little finger 55 from the front-rear direction. The user supports the back surface 10B of the terminal storage case 10 with the index finger 52, the middle finger 53, and the ring finger 54, inserts the little finger 55 into the finger insertion space 3a, and the terminal storage case 10 is fixed on the palm when the ring finger 54 and the little finger 55 come into contact with the holding portion 4.

[0057] The user operates the liquid crystal screen 10C of the mobile terminal 10A with the thumb 51. Since the center of gravity G of the terminal storage case 10 acts downward from the approximate center, the terminal storage case 10 can be stably held by the index finger 52, the middle finger 53, and the ring finger 54. That is, since the terminal storage case 10 is held by the ring finger 54 and the little finger 55 at a fulcrum S separated from the center of gravity G, the terminal storage case 10 can be stably held by utilizing the self-weight of the terminal storage case 10 by supporting the vicinity of the center of gravity G with a plurality of fingers. Here, the fulcrum S is the point where the terminal holder 1 supports the terminal storage case 10 and is located at the lower end portion of the terminal storage case 10. That is, since the terminal holder 1 is exposed from the power through hole 10a of the terminal storage case 10, the fulcrum S can be arranged at the lower end portion of the terminal storage case 10.

[0058] When the user wants to perform other operations while holding the terminal storage case 10, the user can release the index finger 52 and the middle finger 53 that support the back surface 10B of the terminal storage case 10 from the terminal storage case 10. As shown in FIG. 13, the terminal storage case 10 rotates counterclockwise about the ring finger 54 under its own weight. At this time, while the little finger 55 is inserted into the finger insertion space 3a, the ring finger 54 and the little finger 55 are in contact with the holding portion 4. Thereby, the user can perform other operations with fingers other than the ring finger 54 and the little finger 55 while holding the terminal storage case 10 without placing the terminal storage case 10 in another place. When operating the terminal storage case 10 again, use the reaction force or rotate the terminal storage case 10 clockwise about the ring finger 54 with the other hand to return to the state shown in FIG. 12 again.

[0059] According to such a configuration, both ends of the front contact portion 41 and the rear contact portion 42 protrude, and the right front contact portion 41A, the left front contact portion 41B, the right rear contact portion 42A, and the left rear contact portion 42B are in contact with the terminal storage case 10, the liquid crystal screen 10C of the mobile terminal 10A, or the floor surface F. Therefore, the terminal storage case 10 can be stably placed vertically or horizontally. In addition, since the central portion is recessed to protrude both ends, the terminal holder 1 that can stably hold the terminal storage case 10 with a simple structure can be realized. Furthermore, since the finger insertion portion 3 is made of a flexible material, the terminal storage case 10 can be placed vertically and horizontally. In addition, due to the flexibility of the finger insertion portion 3, the angle of the terminal storage case 10 can be set to a desired position by finely adjusting the position of the holding portion 4.

[0060] By bringing the front contact portion 41 into contact with the terminal storage case 10 or the mobile terminal 10A and bringing the rear contact portion 42 into contact with the floor surface F, the terminal storage case 10 can be placed vertically. Also, by bringing the right front contact portion 41A and the right rear contact portion 42A into contact with the back surface 10B and bringing the left front contact portion 41B and the left rear contact portion 42B into contact with the floor surface F, the terminal storage case 10 can be placed horizontally. Thus, the terminal storage case 10 can be placed horizontally or vertically with a single holding portion 4. Further, since a finger insertion portion 3 having a finger insertion space 3a into which a finger is inserted is provided, even if the hand is accidentally removed from the terminal storage case 10, the fall of the mobile terminal 10A can be suppressed. Also, since the holding portion 4 is provided at the end of the finger insertion portion 3, the terminal storage case 10 can be stably held. Furthermore, since the holding portion 4 that supports the finger when holding the mobile terminal 10A also serves as a member that supports the terminal storage case 10 when placed on the floor surface F, the number of parts can be reduced and the manufacturing cost can be suppressed.

[0061] According to such a configuration, since the fixing portion 2 is sandwiched between the mobile terminal 10A and the terminal storage case 10, the terminal holder 1 can be prevented from peeling off from the terminal storage case 10. Also, since the finger insertion portion 3 passes through the power through hole 10a to which the charging terminal is connected, the terminal holder 1 protrudes from the lower end of the mobile terminal 10A. Thereby, the fulcrum S when holding the terminal storage case 10 is located at the lower part of the terminal storage case 10, and it becomes possible to stably hold the terminal storage case 10. Further, since the power through hole 10a is often formed substantially at the center of the bottom surface of the terminal storage case 10, it becomes possible to stably place the terminal storage case 10 vertically and horizontally.

[0062] With such a configuration, since the sum of the width of the first narrow portion 33 passing through the power supply through-hole 10a of the first finger insertion portion 31 and the width of the second narrow portion 35 passing through the power supply through-hole 10a of the second finger insertion portion 32 is equal to or less than the width of the power supply through-hole 10a, it is possible to avoid the first finger insertion portion 31 and the second finger insertion portion 32 from overlapping in the power supply through-hole 10a. Thereby, it is possible to avoid a state where the power supply through-hole 10a is blocked by the finger insertion portion 3 and it is difficult to insert the charging terminal. Further, it is possible to suppress the connection state from becoming unstable due to the charging terminal inserted into the power supply through-hole 10a interfering with the finger insertion portion 3.

[0063] With such a configuration, since the front contact portion 41 can contact the liquid crystal screen 10C of the portable terminal 10A when the terminal storage case 10 is placed on the floor surface F, it is possible to take a picture with the camera 10D provided on the back surface 10B while the portable terminal 10A is placed on the floor surface F. Thereby, it is possible to take pictures such as videos and photos by oneself without asking a third party to take pictures. Further, since the camera 10D can be placed on the floor surface F while facing obliquely upward, it is possible to take videos and the like even if the height at which the portable terminal 10A is placed is low.

[0064] Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 14 to 17. The terminal holder 101 includes a fixing portion 102 attached to the back surface of the portable terminal 10A, a finger insertion portion 3, and a holding portion 4. For the same configurations as those in the above-described embodiment, the same reference numerals are given and the description thereof is omitted.

[0065] The terminal holder 1 of the first embodiment is fixed to the inner surface of the terminal storage case 10, but the terminal holder 101 of the second embodiment is directly fixed to the back surface of the portable terminal 10A. The fixing portion 102 includes a first fixing portion 21, a second fixing portion 22, and a protective cover 121 attached to the upper surfaces of the first fixing portion 21 and the second fixing portion 22. As shown in FIGS. 16 and 17, the protective cover 121 is substantially rectangular and has a rounded corner at the corner opposite to the side attached to the first fixing portion 21 and the second fixing portion 22. Thereby, when the fixing portion 102 is fixed to the back surface of the portable terminal 10A, it is possible to prevent the fixing portion 102 from peeling off from the corner.

[0066] When attaching the terminal holder 101 to the back surface of the mobile terminal 10A, a position slightly above the lower end is desirable as shown in FIG. 14. As shown in FIG. 15, when the mobile terminal 10A is placed vertically, the right front contact portion 41A, the left front contact portion 41B, and the protective cover 121 come into contact with each other. The grip force on the surface of the protective cover 121 suppresses the sliding of the right front contact portion 41A and the left front contact portion 41B, and the mobile terminal 10A can be stably placed on the floor surface F. When the mobile terminal 10A is placed vertically, the back surface 10B of the terminal storage case 10 and the front contact portion 41 may come into contact with each other.

[0067] By attaching the terminal holder 101 to approximately the center in the vertical direction of the back surface 10B, the inclination angle when the mobile terminal 10A is placed vertically can be reduced. That is, the inclination angle of the mobile terminal 10A can be set as desired according to the position of the terminal holder 101.

[0068] When the mobile terminal 10A is placed horizontally, the right front contact portion 41A and the protective cover 121 come into contact with each other, and a part of the side connecting the right rear contact portion 42A and the right front contact portion 41A and the protective cover 121 also come into contact with each other.

[0069] In the terminal holder 101 of the second embodiment, it is attached to the back surface of the mobile terminal 10A, but it is not limited thereto, and the terminal holder 101 may be attached to the back surface 10B of the terminal storage case 10. Thereby, the terminal holder 101 can be attached even to the terminal storage case 10 in which the power through hole 10a is not formed.

[0070] With such a configuration, both ends of the front contact portion 41 and the rear contact portion 42 protrude, and the protruding portions come into contact with the mobile terminal 10A or the floor surface F. Therefore, the mobile terminal 10A can be stably placed vertically or horizontally. Also, since the central portion is recessed to make both ends protrude, a terminal holder 101 that can stably hold the mobile terminal 10A with a simple structure can be realized. Furthermore, since the finger insertion portion 3 is made of a flexible material, the mobile terminal 10A can be placed vertically and horizontally. Also, due to the flexibility of the finger insertion portion 3, the angle of the mobile terminal 10A can be set to a desired position by finely adjusting the position of the holding portion 4.

[0071] By bringing the front contact portion 41 into contact with the mobile terminal 10A and the rear contact portion 42 into contact with the floor surface F, the mobile terminal 10A can be placed vertically. Also, by bringing the right front contact portion 41A and the right rear contact portion 42A into contact with the back surface of the mobile terminal 10A and the left front contact portion 41B and the left rear contact portion 42B into contact with the floor surface F, the mobile terminal 10A can be placed horizontally. Thus, the mobile terminal 10A can be placed horizontally or vertically with one holding portion 4. Also, since a finger insertion portion 3 defining a finger insertion space 3a into which a finger is inserted is provided, it is possible to prevent the mobile terminal 10A from falling even if the hand is accidentally removed from it. Also, since the holding portion 4 is provided at the end of the finger insertion portion 3, the mobile terminal 10A can be stably held. Furthermore, since the holding portion 4 that supports the finger when holding the mobile terminal 10A also serves as a member that supports when placed on the floor surface F, the number of parts can be reduced and the manufacturing cost can be suppressed.

[0072] Next, a third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 18. The same components as those in the above-described embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals and the description thereof is omitted. In the terminal holder 201 according to the third embodiment, the holding portion 4 of the terminal holder 1 of the first embodiment is partially detachable.

[0073] The holding part 204 of the terminal holder 201 is composed of an inner cover 243, a reinforcing material 44, an outer cover 45, a lid part 241, and a sheet 205. The lid part 241 has two claws 242 and is configured to be detachable from the integrally attached inner cover 43, reinforcing material 44, and outer cover 45. A groove 243a is formed in the inner cover 43 at a position corresponding to the claws 242. The lid part 241 is fixed to the inner cover 43 when the claws 242 are caught in the groove 243a. The inner cover 43, the reinforcing material 44, and the outer cover 45 are an example of the cover part of the present invention.

[0074] A sheet 205 can be inserted between the outer cover 45 and the lid part 241, and the user can insert a desired character, photo, etc. as the sheet 205. Although the shape of the sheet 205 in the present embodiment is circular, it is not limited to this and any shape can be selected.

[0075] According to such a configuration, since the lid part 241, the inner cover 43, the reinforcing material 44, and the outer cover 45 are detachable and the sheet 205 can be inserted therebetween, the user can use the sheet 205 printed with a desired character or the like in the holding part 204. Also, by replacing the sheet 205, a terminal holder 201 according to the user's preference can be realized.

[0076] Next, a fourth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 19 to 20. The same components as those in the above-described embodiments are denoted by the same reference numerals and the description thereof is omitted. The holding part 304 of the terminal holder 301 according to the fourth embodiment is substantially rectangular with rounded corners and is configured such that substantially central portions of each side are recessed inward. As shown by the dotted line and the solid line in FIG. 20, the holding part 304 has a front contact part 341 that contacts the outer surface of the terminal storage case 10 when the terminal storage case 10 is placed vertically on the floor surface F, and a rear contact part 342 that contacts the floor surface F when the terminal storage case 10 is placed vertically on the floor surface F.

[0077] As shown in FIG. 19, the approximate center in the left - right direction of the front contact portion 41 and the rear contact portion 42 is recessed inward. The front contact portion 341 has a right - front contact portion 341A located at the right end and a left - front contact portion 341B located at the left end. The right - front contact portion 341A and the left - front contact portion 341B are corners of the holding portion 304 and are chamfered in an arc shape. The rear contact portion 342 has a right - rear contact portion 342A located at the right end and a left - rear contact portion 342B located at the left end. The right - rear contact portion 342A and the left - rear contact portion 342B are corners of the holding portion 304 and are chamfered in an arc shape.

[0078] As shown by the solid line in FIG. 20, when the right - front contact portion 341A and the left - front contact portion 341B of the holding portion 304 contact the back surface 10B of the terminal storage case 10, and the right - rear contact portion 42A and the left - rear contact portion 342B contact the floor surface F, the angle of the mobile terminal 10A is steep. As shown by the dotted line in FIG. 20, when the left - front contact portion 341B and the left - rear contact portion 342B of the holding portion 304 contact the back surface 10B, and the right - front contact portion 341A and the right - rear contact portion 342A contact the floor surface F, the angle of the mobile terminal 10A is gentle. In other words, by rotating the holding portion 4 by 90° and placing the terminal storage case 10 vertically with the holding portion 304, the terminal storage case 10 can be placed on the floor surface F at two - pattern inclination angles.

[0079] According to such a configuration, since the holding portion 304 is substantially rectangular when viewed from the up - down direction, the inclination angle can be changed depending on whether the terminal storage case 10 is supported by the long side or the short side of the rectangle. Thereby, it becomes possible to adjust the inclination angle according to the reflection of the liquid crystal screen 10C of the mobile terminal 10A and the like.

[0080] Next, a fifth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 21 to 22. The same components as those in the above-described embodiments are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof will be omitted. The reinforcing member 444 of the holding portion 4 is formed with a recess 445 into which the outer cover 45 is detachably fitted. The periphery of the recess 445 is surrounded by a wall 446 having a cross section shown in FIG. 22. As a result, the peripheral edge of the outer cover 45 is surrounded by the reinforcing member 444, so that the reinforcing member 444 serves as a frame for decorating the outer cover 45. In the present embodiment, the surface on which the inner cover 43 is attached and detached is smooth, but a depression having the same shape as the recess 445 may be formed. Thereby, since the outer periphery of the outer cover 45 is surrounded by the reinforcing member 444, the strength of the holding portion 4 can be improved. Further, since the reinforcing member 444 comes into contact with the back surface 10B, the floor surface F, or the first protrusion 11, the terminal storage case 10 can be placed vertically or horizontally in a stable state.

[0081] Next, a sixth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 23. The same components as those in the above-described embodiments are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof will be omitted. As shown in FIG. 23, the reinforcing member 544 of the holding portion 4 is provided with an anti-slip material 546 at the right front contact portion 41A, the right rear contact portion 42A, the left front contact portion 41B, and the left rear contact portion 42B. The anti-slip material 546 is made of a resin such as silicon and can come into contact with the back surface 10B, the floor surface F, or the first protrusion 11. Thereby, the terminal storage case 10 can be placed vertically or horizontally in a stable state.

[0082] The terminal holder and the terminal storage case according to the present invention are not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications can be made within the scope of the gist of the invention described in the claims.

[0083] In the above-described embodiment, the terminal holder 1 is fixed to the terminal storage case 10, but it is not limited thereto. The terminal holder 1 may be directly attached to the back surface of the mobile terminal 10A. In this case, as shown in FIG. 8, when the mobile terminal 10A is placed vertically on the floor surface F, the rear contact portion 42 contacts the floor surface F and the front contact portion 41 contacts the back surface of the mobile terminal 10A, so that the mobile terminal 10A is in an inclined state. Thereby, even when there is no terminal storage case 10, the mobile terminal 10A can be placed vertically or horizontally using the terminal holder 1.

[0084] The holding portion 204 of the third embodiment shown in FIG. 18 can also be applied to other embodiments. The holding portion 304 of the fourth embodiment shown in FIG. 19 can also be applied to other embodiments.

[0085] In the above-described embodiment, although the substantially center of all four sides in the holding portion 4 was recessed inward, it is not limited thereto. For example, as shown in FIG. 24(a), in the holding portion 404, recesses are formed only in the front contact portion 41 and the rear contact portion 42, and no recesses are formed in the left and right sides. Thereby, at least when the terminal storage case is placed vertically, the terminal storage case 10 can be stably supported at two locations. Further, as shown in FIG. 24(b), in the holding portion 504, a recess is formed only in the front contact portion 41, and no recesses are formed in the rear contact portion 542 and the left and right sides. Even with such a configuration, when the terminal storage case is placed vertically, the front contact portion 41 contacts the back surface 10B at two locations, so that the terminal storage case 10 can be stably supported. Further, as shown in FIG. 24(c), the holding portion 604 may have a substantially heart shape. The holding portion 604 includes a front contact portion 641 having a right front contact portion 641A and a left front contact portion 641B, and a rear contact portion 642. In the holding portion 604, the space between the right front contact portion 641A and the left front contact portion 641B is recessed inward, and the right front contact portion 641A and the left front contact portion 641B are provided at positions spaced a predetermined distance in the left-right direction from the recessed portion. When the terminal storage case 10 is placed vertically on the floor surface F, the right front contact portion 641A and the left front contact portion 641B contact the back surface 10B, and the rear contact portion 642 contacts the floor surface F.

[0086] In the above-described embodiment, the finger insertion space 3a was defined in the finger insertion portion 3, but it is not limited thereto. For example, as shown in FIG. 25, the terminal holder 701 has a connecting portion 703 made of a flexible material instead of the finger insertion portion. Since the finger insertion space 3a is not defined in the connecting portion 703, a finger cannot be inserted. The user grips the terminal storage case 10 with the terminal holder 701 attached by sandwiching the connecting portion 703 with a finger. Thereby, the portable terminal 10A or the terminal storage case 10 can be placed vertically or horizontally using the terminal holder 701.

[0087] In the first embodiment, the terminal holder 1 was exposed to the outside from the power through hole 10a, but it is not limited thereto. The terminal holder 1 may be attached at an arbitrary position on the back surface 10B of the terminal storage case 10. For example, the terminal holder 1 may be attached to the terminal storage case 10 such that the finger insertion portion 3 extends from the lower right or lower left of the back surface 10B. Further, the terminal holder 1 may be attached to the back surface 10B such that the finger insertion portion 3 extends from the left-right direction of the terminal storage case 10.
