[Figure 4] This is an explanatory diagram (2) showing the case body with a separate storage space forming component in a simulated fitted state. [Figure 5] Figures 5(a) and 5(b) are explanatory diagrams illustrating other embodiments of the storage space forming body. [Figure 6] This is an explanatory diagram illustrating the configuration of the partition pieces and locking protrusions in the storage space. [Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0009] The present invention will be described below based on the embodiments shown in the figures. The smartphone case 1 of this invention has a smartphone storage section 10 which is composed of a back cover section 2 that covers the back of the smartphone and a side cover section 3 that is connected to the outer peripheral end of the back cover section 2 and adheres closely to the side of the smartphone.

[0010] Furthermore, a case body portion 7 is provided, which has a fitting frame portion 4 that rises from the outer peripheral end of the rear cover portion 2 in the opposite direction to the arrangement direction of the side cover portion 3.

[0011] Furthermore, a separate storage space forming body 5 is provided which is fitted into the fitting frame portion 4 and can form a storage space on the surface side of the back cover portion 2.

[0012] Here, a locking groove 6 having an opening that opens inward is formed on the inner peripheral surface side of the fitting frame portion 4, and the outer peripheral end portion of the storage space forming body 5 is fitted and locked into the locking groove 6 so that a storage space can be formed above the back cover portion 2.

[0013] In addition, the case main body portion 7 is preferably composed of a member having relatively flexibility, and the storage space forming body 5 is preferably composed of a member that is relatively hard with respect to the case main body portion 7. This is to facilitate fitting of the separately configured storage space forming body 5 into the locking groove 6 provided in the case main body portion 7 and to facilitate removal of the fitted storage space forming body 5. Therefore, the case main body portion 7 is preferably composed of a flexible resin member.

[0014] In addition, it is also conceivable to form the storage space forming body 5 of a flexible member and form the case main body portion 7 of a harder member than that.

[0015] Here, the shape of the storage space formed by the storage space forming body 5 is not limited at all. For example, a plurality of storage sections may be formed in a square lattice shape. Also, as shown in FIG. 5(a), a horizontally long rectangular storage space may be formed stepwise like a terraced field in the vertical direction. Also, as shown in FIG. 5(b), it may be formed as a large flat storage space without partitions over the entire back surface of the smartphone.

[0016] Furthermore, in addition to circular, trapezoidal, and rhombus shapes, it may also be in the shape of an animal, a flower, or a comic character.

[0017] Next, the smartphone case 1 according to the present invention is not limited with respect to color either, and in addition to a transparent color, it may be coated with various colors. Furthermore, it may be aurora-colored or have glitter.

[0018] Incidentally, when the storage space forming body 5 has multiple storage spaces, partition pieces 9 are provided to divide the space into multiple spaces, as can be seen from Figure 6 and the like. Furthermore, retaining protrusions 8 are provided at least at the intersections where the partition pieces 9 intersect, and these retaining protrusions 8 abut against the surface of the back cover portion 2, so that each storage space within the storage space forming body 5 does not become recessed.

[0019] The usage conditions of this invention will now be explained. First, the user selects the desired storage space forming body 5. As mentioned above, this invention provides multiple storage space forming bodies 5 with different shapes and sizes of storage spaces. Therefore, the user can select the desired storage space forming body from among them.

[0020] After making the selection, place your desired items, such as marble stickers or tile stickers, into each of the selected storage spaces of the storage space forming body 5. Next, place the case body 7 over the storage space forming body 5 with the side having the locking groove 6 facing upwards. After placing it over, push the case body 7 towards the storage space forming body 5 so that the outer edges of the storage space forming body 5 fit into the locking groove 6 of the case body 7 (see Figures 3 and 4).

[0021] As mentioned above, since the smartphone case 1 is made of a flexible resin material, when the case body 7 is pushed in, its fitting frame 4 expands outward, and the outer edge of the storage space forming body 5 fits into the locking groove 6 provided in the case body 7.

[0022] Furthermore, if you want to ensure a secure fit, or if the aforementioned pushing method does not allow for a secure fit, you can grasp the storage space forming body 5 while its outer peripheral end is pseudo-locked to the upper inside of the fitting frame portion 4 of the case body portion 7, and manually fit the outer peripheral end of the storage space forming body 5 into the locking groove 6.

[0023] Furthermore, if you want to change to a different type of storage space former 5, remove the currently used storage space former 5 from the case body 7, then select your preferred storage space former 5, and insert your desired items into it.

[0024] Finally, the smartphone is placed in the smartphone storage compartment 10, completing the preparation for using the smartphone case 1 of this invention. [Explanation of symbols]
