Abstract
A case for an electronic device includes a rigid layer and a resilient layer. The rigid layer includes a plurality of turned edges. The resilient layer is disposed primarily on a first side of the rigid layer, wherein the resilient layer includes a plurality of enveloping edges that substantially envelop the turned edges.
Claims50
A case for an electronic device, comprising:
- a first panel, two short edge panels each having matching heights, and two long edge panels each having matching heights different than the heights of the two short edge panels, wherein the two long edge panels have a length greater than the two short edge panels, and wherein the two short edge panels and two long edge panels extend from the first panel;
- each of the two short edge panels have a first height and each of the two long edge panels have a second height, wherein the second height is less than the first height;
- an edge corner located at each intersection of the short and long edge panels, wherein the edge corners have a third height and include transitions to the second height of the long edge panels, and wherein the maximum height of each of the transitions is not greater than the third height of the edge corners and the minimum height of each of the transitions is not less than the second height of the long edge panels;
- wherein the two short edge panels have only one height that continuously spans the entire distance between the corners;
- and
- and wherein the two long edge panels have only one height that continuously spans the entire distance between the transitions of the edge corners.

A case for an electronic device, comprising:
- a first panel having a plurality of turned edges extending from the first panel;
- the plurality of turned edges comprising upper and lower edges and a first and a second side edges;
- the upper edge intersecting with both a first end of the first side edge and a first end of the second side edge defining a first and second corner;
- the lower edge intersecting with a second end of the first side edge and a second end of the second side edge defining a third and fourth corner;
- the upper and lower edges having a first, continuous height spanning the entire distance between the first and second corner and third and fourth corner, respectively;
- wherein a change in height from the first and second corners to the first and second side edges is defined by a first transition, and another change in height from the first and second side edges to the third and fourth corners is defined by a second transition, and wherein the first and second transitions are defined by one of a taper or a step;
- wherein the first and second side edges have a second, continuous height spanning the entire distance between the first and second transitions;
- and
- wherein the second height of the first and second edges is less than the first height of the upper and lower edges.
