Cooling system for protective mobile device cases

Abstract

A protective mobile device case can provide heat dissipation from a mobile device. The device case can include a sidewall perimeter member, a back plate member, a set of ventilation channels, and a cooling gel layer. The sidewall perimeter can be shaped to at least partially circumscribe a perimeter of the mobile device. The back plate can be associated with the sidewall perimeter and have an inward side facing the mobile device and an outward side facing an external environment. The ventilation channels can be oriented along the inward side and have vent outlets oriented adjacent the sidewall perimeter. The ventilation channels can vent to the external environment when the mobile device is within the device case. The cooling gel layer can be associated with the inward side and be configured to contact at least a portion of the ventilation channels and a back side of the mobile device.
