Abstract

Systems involve a case assembly including a base, a first side extending from the base, and a stand assembly including an elongated member having an elongated cavity, and a base extending from the elongated member. The stand assembly is rotatably coupled with the case assembly so that the stand assembly is rotatable between a first rotational position and a second rotational position so that the elongated cavity is covered by the case assembly when the stand assembly is in the first rotational position, and so that the elongated cavity is at least partially uncovered from the case assembly when the stand assembly is in the second rotational position. Other aspects are described in the claims, drawings, and text forming a part of the present disclosure.

Dependent claims

A case system for a portable electronic device and a stylus device, the system comprising:

(I) a case assembly including (A) a base, (B) a first side extending from the base, (C) a second side extending from the base, and at least a portion of the second side extending perpendicular to at least a portion of the first side, (D) a third side extending from the base and at least a portion of the third side extending perpendicular to at least a portion of the second side, and (E) a fourth side extending from the base and at least a portion of the fourth side extending perpendicular to at least a portion of the first side;
and (II) a stand assembly including (A) an elongated member having an elongated cavity, and (B) a base extending from the elongated member, wherein the stand assembly is rotatably couplable with the case assembly, wherein when the stand assembly is rotatably coupled with the case assembly, the stand assembly is rotatable between at least a first rotational position and a second rotational position, wherein the elongated cavity is covered by the case assembly when the stand assembly is in the first rotational position, and wherein the elongated cavity is at least partially uncovered from the case assembly when the stand assembly is in the second rotational position, wherein the first side of the case assembly includes an elongated recess with opposing first and second sides, wherein the elongated member of the stand assembly has first and second ends, wherein the first end of the elongated member of the stand assembly is rotatably coupled with the first side of the elongated recess of the case assembly, and wherein the second end of the elongated member of the stand assembly is rotatably coupled with the second side of the elongated recess of the case assembly.
