[0140] Figure 2 (D) shows a state in which the first member (30A) is moved rearward in Figure 2 (C).

[0141] In this embodiment, the portable electronic device (1) is shaped like a smartphone, but this is exemplary and is not limited thereto.

[0142] The portable electronic device (1) may be, for example, a mobile phone, a smart phone, or a tablet computer, but is not limited thereto.

[0143] Figures (A), (B), (C), and (D) of FIG. 3 show a state in which the cover (40) has been removed from Figures (A), (B), (C), and (D) of FIG. 2.

[0144] Figures (A), (B), (C), and (D) of FIG. 4 show a state in which the portable electronic device (1) is removed from Figures (A), (B), (C), and (D) of FIG. 3.

[0145] As shown in FIG. 4, a grip device (2A) of a portable electronic device may include a grip (10), a base (20), a plate (50), a first member (30A), and a second member (70A).

[0146] The grip device (2A) of the portable electronic device may include a first spring (61) as needed, and may also include a second spring (62) as needed.

[0147] Figure 5 (A) shows the shape of the grip (10), and Figure 5 (B) shows the grip (10) of Figure 5 (A) when viewed from a different angle.

[0148] The grip (10) may have one or more finger holes (11A, 11B, 11C).

[0149] In the drawing, three finger holes (11A, 11B, 11C) are formed in a series in the grip (10). A finger hole (11A) is formed in the front, a finger hole (11B) is formed at the back of the finger hole (11A), and a finger hole (11C) is formed at the back of the finger hole (11B).

[0150] The grip (10) may have a finger rest (12) at the back of a plurality of finger holes (11A, 11B, 11C), and a support bar (13) may be formed upward at a certain length at the back of the finger rest (12).

[0151] Among the finger holes (11A, 11B, 11C) in the drawing, a finger support (12) is formed at the back of the rearmost finger hole (11C), and a support bar (13) is formed upward at a certain length at the back of the finger support (12).

[0152] For example, the user's index finger may be inserted into the finger hole (11A), the middle finger may be inserted into the finger hole (11B), the ring finger may be inserted into the finger hole (11C), and the pinky may be placed on the finger rest (12).

[0153] By opening the upper part (Z side) of the finger rest (12), the user's finger placed on the finger rest (12) can freely come out from the upper part of the finger rest (12).

[0154] The support bar (13) can play a supporting role when the portable electronic device (1) is to be set up while the grip device (2A) of the portable electronic device is attached to the portable electronic device (1).

[0155] Figure 6 (A) shows the shape of the cover separately, and Figure 6 (B) shows the shape of the base separately.

[0156] Slide grooves (42) are formed on both inner sides of the cover (40). Accordingly, the base (20) and the cover (40) can be joined as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 by inserting the two side portions (25A) of the base (20) into the slide grooves (42), respectively.

[0157] A first guide rail (21A), a second guide rail (23A), a spring connecting protrusion (26A), a spring connecting protrusion (26B), and a shaft (27A) are formed on the base (20).

[0158] The first guide rail (21A) is formed to protrude upward on the upper surface (24) of the base (20).

[0159] The base (20) can be attached or coupled to a portable electronic device (1).

[0160] The method for attaching the base (20) to the portable electronic device (1) may be, for example, by attaching it using an adhesive, a double-sided adhesive tape, a magnet, a screw, or a bolt and nut, but is not limited thereto.

[0161] The base (20) may be indirectly attached or coupled to the portable electronic device (1), for example, the base (20) may be indirectly attached or coupled to the portable electronic device (1) with the portable electronic device case interposed therebetween.

[0162] The base (20) may be attached or coupled to the portable electronic device (1) by installing or mounting the base (20) on the portable electronic device (1).

[0163] The base (20) may be detachably attached or coupled to a portable electronic device (1).

[0164] Alternatively, the base (20) may be attached to the portable electronic device (1) so that the portable electronic device (1) and the base (20) may be formed as one body.

[0165] As described above, the manner in which the base (20) is attached or coupled to the portable electronic device (1) can also be applied to the embodiments described below.

[0166] Figure 6 (C) shows the shape of the first member (30A) separately, and Figure 6 (D) shows the appearance of the first member (30A) of Figure 6 (C) when viewed from a different angle in a flipped state.

[0167] The first member (30A) may have a button (31), a guide groove (32), a push rod (33), and a spring connecting projection (34).

[0168] The second guide rail (23A) formed on the base (20) and the guide groove (32) formed on the first member (30A) are combined so that the first member (30A) can slide back and forth along the second guide rail (23A).

[0169] A second spring (62) can be connected between the spring connecting protrusion (26B) formed on the base (20) and the spring connecting protrusion (34) formed on the first member (30A), as shown in FIG. 4.

[0170] By forming a spring receiving groove (35) in the first member (30A), the second spring (62) can be positioned within the spring receiving groove (35).

[0171] The second spring (62) may be a tensile coil spring, but is not limited thereto.

[0172] The first member (30A) can be pulled forward or moved forward as in (A) of Fig. 4 by the second spring (62).

[0173] Fig. 6 (E) shows the shape of the second member (70A) separately, and Fig. 6 (F) shows the appearance of the second member (70A) of Fig. 6 (E) when viewed from a different angle in a flipped state.

[0174] The second member (70A) may have a catch (71), a push-button joint (72A), and a pivot hole (74), and may also have an elastic member (73) as needed.

[0175] When the shaft (27A) formed in the base (20) is inserted into the pivot hole (74) formed in the second member (70A), the second member (70A) can pivot at a certain angle around the shaft (27A).

[0176] The elastic member (73) may be formed as one body with the second member (70A), or a separate elastic member (73) may be combined or installed on the second member (70A).

[0177] The elastic member (73) may be, for example, in the shape of a plate spring or a torsion spring, but is not limited thereto.

[0178] As seen in (E) and (F) of Fig. 6, the elastic part (73) indicated by the solid line can be bent inward at a certain angle as indicated by the dotted line, and the elastic part (73) bent in this way can be restored to its original state by its own elasticity.

[0179] Fig. 6 (G) shows the shape of the plate (50) separately, and Fig. 6 (H) shows the appearance of the plate (50) of Fig. 6 (G) when viewed from a different angle in a flipped state.

[0180] The plate (50) may have one or more catches (51A, 51B, 51C) that can be engaged with a catch projection (71).

[0181] In the drawing, three catches (51A, 51B, 51C) are formed on the plate (50).

[0182] A catch (51A) is formed at the very front, a catch (51B) is formed at the back of the catch (51A), and a catch (51C) is formed at the back of the catch (51B).

[0183] In the drawing, the catches (51A, 51B, 51C) are each shaped like a saw tooth, but this is exemplary and is not limited thereto.

[0184] A guide groove (52A) can be formed on the bottom surface of the plate (50).

[0185] The first guide rail (21A) formed on the base (20) and the guide groove (52A) formed on the plate (50) are combined so that the plate (50) can slide back and forth along the first guide rail (21A).

[0186] The plate (50) may have a shaft receiving groove (53) for receiving the shaft (15) of the grip (10).

[0187] The shaft receiving groove (53) may have an open shape at the bottom.

[0188] With the shaft (15) of the grip (10) accommodated in the shaft accommodation groove (53) with the lower part open, the grip (10) can be rotated at a certain angle around the shaft (15).

[0189] When the plate (50) and the grip (10) are moved back and forth as in (A) and (C) of Fig. 4 while the shaft (15) is accommodated in the shaft accommodation groove (53) with the lower part open, the shaft (15) can slide back and forth while in contact with the upper surface (24) of the base (20).

[0190] As shown in Fig. 4, a first spring (61) can be connected between a spring connecting protrusion (55) formed on a plate (50) and a spring connecting protrusion (26A) formed on a base (20).

[0191] Since the plate (50) has a spring receiving groove (54), the first spring (61) can be positioned within the spring receiving groove (54).

[0192] The first spring (61) may be a tensile coil spring, but is not limited thereto.

[0193] The plate (50) can be pulled or moved forward as in (A) of Fig. 4 by the first spring (61).

[0194] Instead of forming the first guide rail (21A) on the base (20) as in (A) of Fig. 6, the first guide groove (21B) may be formed on the upper surface (24) of the base (20) as in (A) of Fig. 7.

[0195] Instead of forming a guide groove (52A) on the bottom surface of the plate (50) as in (G) and (H) of FIG. 6, a guide rail (52B) may be formed on the bottom surface of the plate (50) as in (B) and (C) of FIG. 7.

[0196] Figure 7 (C) shows a state in which the plate (50) of Figure 7 (B) is flipped over.

[0197] By combining the first guide groove (21B) and the guide rail (52B), the plate (50) can slide back and forth along the first guide groove (21B).

[0198] Figure 4 (A) shows a state in which the plate (50) and the grip (10) are moved forward, the first member (30A) is moved forward, and the catch (71) of the second member (70A) is pushed toward the plate (50) by the elastic member (73).

[0199] As shown in (A) of Fig. 4, when the plate (50) and the grip (10) are moved forward, as shown in (C) of Fig. 4, when the plate (50) and the grip (10) are moved backward a certain distance or more, the plate (50) can be prevented from moving forward by the engaging projection (71) being engaged with one of the engaging portions (51A, 51B, 51C). (In (C) of Fig. 4, the engaging projection (71) is engaged with the engaging portion (51A) at the frontmost.)

[0200] As shown in (C) of Fig. 4, when the plate (50) and the grip (10) are moved rearward, as shown in (D) of Fig. 4, when the first member (30A) slides rearward a certain distance, the push rod (33) of the first member (30A) pushes the push rod connecting portion (72A) of the second member (70A) to the opposite side of the plate (50), so that the second member (70A) pivots at a certain angle to the opposite side of the plate (50) (counterclockwise in the drawing).

[0201] As shown in (D) of Fig. 4, when the second member (70A) is pivoted at a certain angle to the opposite side of the plate (50), the catch projection (71) is separated from the catch portion to which it was connected, so that the plate (50) can be moved forward by the first spring (61) as shown in (A) of Fig. 4.

[0202] As in (A) of Fig. 4, when the grip (10) is moved forward and in an erected state, as in (B) of Fig. 4, the grip (10) can be tilted to one side with respect to the shaft (15), but cannot be tilted to the opposite side, because one side (14A) of the grip (10) comes into contact with one side (56) of the plate (50).

[0203] As shown in (C) of Fig. 4, when the grip (10) is moved rearward, the grip (10) is positioned between one side (56) of the plate (50) and one side wall (22) of the base (20), so that one side (14A) and the other side (14B) of the grip (10) are supported by one side (56) of the plate (50) and one side wall (22) of the base (20), so that the grip (10) cannot be tilted left or right about the shaft (15) and can be maintained in a state where it is erected at a certain angle.

[0204] Figure 8 (A) shows a state in which the base (20) and the cover (40) are combined.

[0205] Figure 8 (B) shows a state in which the base (20) and the cover (40) are combined and turned over like in Figure 8 (A) so that the lower side faces upward.

[0206] Figure 8 (C) separately shows the base (20) in an inverted state as in Figure 8 (B).

[0207] Figure 8 (D) separately shows the cover (40) in an inverted state as in Figure 8 (B).

[0208] As seen in (C) of Fig. 8, a joining groove (25B) is formed on each of the lower sides of the base (20).

[0209] As seen in (D) of Fig. 8, a coupling protrusion (43) is formed on each side of the cover (40).

[0210] When the two sides (25A) of the base (20) are inserted into the slide grooves (42) of the cover (40) respectively, and the base (20) and the cover (40) are combined as shown in (B) of Fig. 8, the coupling grooves (25B) and the coupling protrusions (43) are each combined, so that the cover (40) and the base (20) can be effectively prevented from being easily separated.

[0211] As in the embodiments described below, the base (20) and the cover (40) may be combined, just as in FIG. 8.

[0212] As in (A) of Fig. 2, when the grip (10) is moved forward and in an erected state, as in (B) of Fig. 2, the grip (10) can be tilted to one side around a certain axis or around the shaft (15), but cannot be tilted to the opposite side, because one side (14A) of the grip (10) comes into contact with one side (41) of the cover (40).

[0213] As shown in (A) of Fig. 2, when the grip (10) is moved forward and erected, as shown in (C) of Fig. 2, when the grip (10) is moved backward, the grip (10) is positioned between one side (41) of the cover (40) and one side wall (22) of the base (20), so that one side (14A) and the other side (14B) of the grip (10) are supported by one side (41) of the cover (40) and one side wall (22) of the base (20), so that the grip (10) cannot be tilted to the left or right and can be maintained in a state where it is erected at a certain angle.

[0214]

[0215] << Example 2 >>

[0216] In the following, descriptions of content that overlaps with the previously described embodiments may be omitted.

[0217] Fig. 9 (A) shows the appearance of a grip device (2B) of a portable electronic device according to the second embodiment of the present invention.

[0218] Figures 9 (B) and 9 (C) are drawings showing the operating state of the grip device (2B) of the portable electronic device of Figure 9 (A).

[0219] Figure 10 (A) shows the shape of a grip (10) included in a grip device (2B) of a portable electronic device.

[0220] A first protrusion (16A) and a second protrusion (16B) are formed at the bottom of the grip (10), and the first protrusion (16A) and the second protrusion (16B) each have a rod insertion hole (18).

[0221] The first protrusion (16A) has a first side (17A), and the second protrusion (16B) has a second side (17B).

[0222] Figure 10 (B) shows the shape of a base (20) included in a grip device (2B) of a portable electronic device.

[0223] A guide rod (28) can be formed or installed on the base (20).

[0224] When the guide rod (28) is positioned within the rod insertion hole (18) of the grip (10), the grip (10) can slide back and forth along the guide rod (28), and the grip (10) can also rotate at a certain angle around the guide rod (28).

[0225] The base (20) may have a first side (29A) and a second side (29B), and the first side (29A) may be formed to be slightly inward than the second side (29B).

[0226] Accordingly, as in (A) of Fig. 9, when the plate (50) and the grip (10) are moved forward, and the grip (10) is tilted to one side with the guide rod (28) as in (B) of Fig. 9 while the grip (10) is erected, the first protrusion (16A) does not get caught on the first side (29A) of the base (20).

[0227] Figure 10 (C) shows the shape of a plate (50) included in a grip device (2B) of a portable electronic device.

[0228] The plate (50) of Fig. 10 (C) has a protrusion (57) formed by protruding from one side by a certain length, and the protrusion (57) has a rod insertion hole (58), so that the plate (50) can slide back and forth along the guide rod (28) while the guide rod (28) is positioned within the rod insertion hole (58).

[0229] When the grip (10) and the plate (50) slide along the guide rod (28), the protrusion (57) of the plate (50) is positioned between the first protrusion (16A) and the second protrusion (16B) of the grip (10), so that the grip (10) and the plate (50) can slide back and forth together along the guide rod (28).

[0230] As shown in (A) of Fig. 9, the plate (50) and the grip (10) are moved forward, and in a state where the grip (10) is erected, as shown in (B) of Fig. 9, the grip (10) can be tilted to one side with the guide rod (28) as the center, but cannot be tilted to the opposite side, because the second side (17B) of the grip (10) comes into contact with the second side (29B) of the base.

[0231] As shown in (A) of FIG. 9, when the plate (50) and the grip (10) are moved forward along the guide rod (28) and the grip (10) is erected, as shown in (C) of FIG. 9, when the plate (50) and the grip (10) are moved rearward along the guide rod (28), the first side (17A) of the grip (10) comes into contact with the second side (29B) of the base, so that the grip (10) can be maintained in an erected state without being tilted left or right about the guide rod (28).

[0232]

[0233] The method in which a guide rod (28) is formed or installed on a base (20) like the grip device (2B) of a portable electronic device of FIG. 9, and the plate (50) and the grip (10) are combined with the guide rod (28) to operate can also be applied to the grip device (2A) of the portable electronic device described above and the grip devices (2C, 2D, 2E) of the portable electronic device described below.

[0234]

[0235] << Example 3 >>

[0236] In the following, descriptions of content that overlaps with the previously described embodiments may be omitted.

[0237] Fig. 11 (A) shows the appearance of a grip device (2C) of a portable electronic device according to the third embodiment of the present invention.

[0238] Figures 11 (B), (C), and (D) are drawings showing the operating state of the grip device (2C) of the portable electronic device of Figure 11 (A).

[0239] A grip device (2C) of a portable electronic device may include a grip (10), a base (20), a plate (50), a first member (80A), and a second member (70B), and may also include a first spring (61) as needed.

[0240] Figure 12 (A) shows the shape of a base (20) included in a grip device (2C) of a portable electronic device.

[0241] A shaft (27B) is formed on the base (20) of (A) of Fig. 12.

[0242] Figure 12 (B) shows the shape of the first member (80A) included in the grip device (2C) of the portable electronic device.

[0243] The first member (80A) of (B) of FIG. 12 may have a button (81), a lower rod (82), and a pivot hole (83).

[0244] With the shaft (27B) of the base (20) inserted into the pivot hole (83) of the first member (80A), the first member (80A) can pivot at a certain angle around the shaft (27B).

[0245] Figure 12 (C) shows the shape of the second member (70B) included in the grip device (2C) of the portable electronic device, and Figure 12 (D) shows the second member (70B) of Figure 12 (C) in a flipped state.

[0246] The second member (70B) may have a hook (71), a lower rod joint (72B), and a pivot hole (74), and may also have an elastic member (73) as needed.

[0247] Figure 11 (A) shows a state in which the plate (50) and the grip (10) are moved forward, and the catch (71) of the second member (70B) is pushed toward the plate (50) by the elastic member (73).

[0248] Figure 11 (B) shows a state where the grip (10) is tilted to one side (to the right in the drawing).

[0249] As shown in (A) of Fig. 11, when the plate (50) and the grip (10) are moved forward, as shown in (C) of Fig. 11, when the plate (50) and the grip (10) are moved backward a certain distance or more, the engaging projection (71) is engaged with one of the engaging portions (51A, 51B, 51C), thereby preventing the plate (50) from moving forward. (In (C) of Fig. 11, the engaging projection (71) is engaged with the engaging portion (51A) at the frontmost.)

[0250] As shown in (C) of Fig. 11, when the plate (50) and the grip (10) are moved rearward a certain distance or more, and the button (81) of the first member (80A) is pressed inward as shown in (D) of Fig. 11, the first member (80A) is pivoted at a certain angle, so that the lower rod (82) of the first member (80A) pushes the lower rod joint (72B) of the second member (70B) to the opposite side of the plate (50), so that the second member (70B) is pivoted at a certain angle to the opposite side of the plate (50) (counterclockwise in the drawing).

[0251] As shown in (D) of Fig. 11, when the second member (70B) is pivoted at a certain angle to the opposite side of the plate (50), the catch projection (71) is separated from the catch portion to which it was connected, so that the plate (50) can be pulled or moved forward by the first spring (61) as shown in (A) of Fig. 11.

[0252]

[0253] << Example 4 >>

[0254] In the following, descriptions of content that overlaps with the previously described embodiments may be omitted.

[0255] Fig. 13 (A) shows the appearance of a grip device (2D) of a portable electronic device according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention.

[0256] Figures 13 (B), (C), and (D) are drawings showing the operating state of the grip device (2D) of the portable electronic device of Figure 13 (A).

[0257] A grip device (2D) of a portable electronic device may include a grip (10), a base (20), a plate (50), a first member (80B), and a second member (90A), and may also include a first spring (61) as needed, and may also include a third spring (63) as needed.

[0258] Figure 14 (A) shows the shape of a base (20) included in a grip device (2D) of a portable electronic device.

[0259] A shaft (27D) and a third guide rail (23B) are formed on the base (20) of Fig. 14 (A), and a spring connecting protrusion (26D) is also formed.

[0260] Figure 14 (B) shows the shape of the first member (80B) included in the grip device (2D) of the portable electronic device.

[0261] The first member (80B) may have a button (81), a lower rod (82), and a pivot hole (83).

[0262] With the shaft (27D) of the base (20) inserted into the pivot hole (83) of the first member (80B), the first member (80B) can be rotated at a certain angle around the shaft (27D).
