[0021] An electronic device stand according to one embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings (FIGS. 1 to 24). S shown in Figures 1 to 3 is an electronic device stand on which an electronic device 10 is placed, and the electronic device stand S comprises a first arched surface member 1 placed on a placing surface (e.g., a horizontal surface such as a table) 13 so that it is convex upward, a second arched surface member 2 abutting against the first arched surface member 1 so that it is convex toward the first arched surface member 1 and on which the electronic device 10 is placed, and a fastening means 3 for fastening the first arched surface member 1 and the second arched surface member 2 together.

[0022] The electronic device 10 shown in Figures 2 and 3 is a portable game machine (other than portable game machines, examples include PDAs (Personal Digital Assistants), mobile phones, smartphones, electronic dictionaries, digital cameras, digital audio players, etc.), and the fastening means 3 has, for example, a male screw 31 and a female screw 32 that screws into this male screw 31, and can tighten and fix the first arched surface member 1 and the second arched surface member 2, and can also be loosened to adjust the arched surface member 2 to a predetermined angle, for example, 43° to 90° (see Figures 4 to 6).

[0023] Therefore, the electronic device stand S described above comprises a first arched surface member 1 placed on the placing surface 13 so as to be convex upward, a second arched surface member 2 placed so as to be convex toward the first arched surface member 1, and fastening means 3 for fastening the first arched surface member 1 and the second arched surface member 2 together, so that even if the electronic device stand S is dropped or accidentally stepped on, it is protected by the planar members of the first arched surface member 1 and the second arched surface member 2 and can be prevented from being damaged. The planar members of the first arched planar member 1 and the second arched planar member 2 are preferably made of, for example, polycarbonate, which is highly transparent and highly resistant to impact.

[0024] As shown in Figure 15, the first arched surface member 1 has a first' arched surface member 1' and a first" arched surface member 1", and when in use, of the first' arched surface member 1' and the first" arched surface member 1", at least the upper arched surface member (in this embodiment, the first' arched surface member 1') is transparent (or translucent), and by interposing a first display body 4 on which letters, photographs, designs, etc. are drawn between the first' arched surface member 1' and the first" arched surface member 1" (see Figure 14), new functions can be added to the electronic device stand S.

[0025] Reference numerals 5, 5 shown in Figure 15 are first separation prevention members that prevent the first arched surface member 1' and the first arched surface member 1" from separating from each other, and these first separation prevention members 5, 5 are provided at each end of the first arched surface member 1' and the first" arched surface member 1". The separation prevention member 5 is made of, for example, an elastomer (TPE), a soft polymeric material with rubber-like elasticity, and the first separation prevention member 5 also functions as an anti-slip member. Therefore, as the first separation prevention member 5 also functions as an anti-slip member, it has the dual effects of preventing separation and preventing slipping.

[0026] Furthermore, as shown in Figure 16, the second arched surface member 2 has a second' arched surface member 2' and a second" arched surface member 2", and when in use, of the second' arched surface member 2' and the second" arched surface member 2", at least the upper arched surface member (in this embodiment, the second' arched surface member 2') is transparent (or translucent), and by interposing a second display body 6 on which letters, photographs, designs, etc. are drawn between the second' arched surface member 2' and the second" arched surface member 2" (see Figure 14), new functions can be added to the electronic device stand S.

[0027] 15 designates second separation prevention members that prevent the second' arched surface member 2' and the second" arched surface member 2" from separating from each other, and these second separation prevention members 7, 7' are provided at the ends of the second' arched surface member 2' and the second" arched surface member 2". Of the second separation prevention members 7, 7', the upper second separation prevention member 7 located at the top also functions as an anti-slip member for the electronic device 10, thereby achieving the dual effects of preventing separation and preventing slippage. Furthermore, of the second separation prevention members 7, 7', the lower second separation prevention member 7' located at the bottom also functions as a stopper member for the electronic device 10, thereby achieving the dual effects of preventing separation and acting as a stopper.

[0028] When the electronic device stand S is not in use, the outside of the second arched surface member 2 is abutted against the inside of the first arched surface member 1 and fastened together with the fastening means 3 to form a single unit (see Figure 18), and then the electronic device stand S is stored in the storage bag 8. In other words, when the electronic device stand S is not in use, the outside of the second arched surface member 2 is abutted against the inside of the first arched surface member 1 and fastened together with the fastening means 3 to form an integrated unit, so that the electronic device stand S can be made compact and has increased strength to prevent breakage even if it is accidentally dropped.

[0029] In addition, in order to place the electronic device 10 at a predetermined position on the electronic device stand S, an engaging portion K that engages with the engaged portion U of the electronic device 10 is provided below the second arched member 2 (see Figures 13 and 12). As shown in FIG. 2, a power cord 9 is connected to an electronic device 10 placed on the second arched member 2. In other words, an opening O (see Figure 1) is provided in the second arched member 2 through which a power cord 9 passes, which is connected to the terminal of an electronic device 10 placed on the second arched member 2, and since the second arched member 2 on which the electronic device 10 is placed is positioned above the first arched member 1, the distance from the placement surface 13 can be increased, and the power cord 9 can be connected to the terminal at the bottom of the electronic device 10 placed on the second arched member 2 through the opening O (see Figure 1) (see Figure 2).

[0030] In addition, reference numeral 21 shown in Figure 1 is a groove portion for the movement of the loosened fastening means 3, and when the second arched surface member 2 reaches a predetermined position, the loosened fastening means 3 can be tightened at that position to fix the second arched surface member 2 and the first arched surface member 1.
