Abstract
Protective charging case systems usable with electronic devices are provided. The systems may include cases with removable batteries, where the electronic devices can be attached to the cases and be wirelessly charged by the batteries. The batteries can be charged in multiple ways, whether or not they are installed in the cases. The protective charging case system and its components can result in increased user satisfaction and improved working conditions, due to the maximized operation time of the electronic devices.
Claims20
A protective case system for an electronic device, comprising:
- (A) a case adapted to removably engage with the electronic device, comprising:
- one or more external conductive terminals disposed on an external surface of the case;
- a receiving portion adapted to releasably hold a rechargeable battery;
- and
- one or more internal conductive terminals disposed within the receiving portion and electrically connected to the one or more external conductive terminals;
- and
- (B) the rechargeable battery removably engaged with the receiving portion of the case, and configured to wirelessly charge the electronic device, the rechargeable battery comprising:
- a charging port configured to receive a first current to charge the rechargeable battery;
- and
- one or more battery conductive terminals adapted to electrically contact the one or more internal conductive terminals, and configured to receive a second current to charge the rechargeable battery from the one or more internal conductive terminals.
A rechargeable battery, comprising:
- a charging port configured to receive a first current to charge the rechargeable battery;
- and
- one or more battery conductive terminals adapted to electrically contact one or more corresponding conductive terminals, and configured to receive a second current to charge the rechargeable battery from the one or more corresponding conductive terminals;
- wherein the rechargeable battery is configured to be removably engaged with a protective case, and to wirelessly charge an electronic device engaged to the protective case.
A protective case, comprising:
- one or more external conductive terminals disposed on an external surface of the case;
- a receiving portion adapted to releasably hold a rechargeable battery;
- and
- one or more internal conductive terminals disposed within the receiving portion and electrically connected to the one or more external conductive terminals;
- wherein the protective case is adapted to be removably engaged with an electronic device;
- and
- wherein the rechargeable battery is configured to wirelessly charge the electronic device and further configured to receive current to charge the rechargeable battery through one or more of a charging port or a battery conductive terminal adapted to be in electrical contact with the one or more internal conductive terminals.
