A case for holding an object at an exterior thereof, comprising:
- a case body, which has a receiving cavity and a utility edge, comprising a utility panel having a displaying surface extended from said utility edge;
- a hinge edge frame arrangement, which is provided on said utility edge of said case body, comprising a first edge frame extended along said utility edge of said case body to retain said utility panel in position, and a second edge frame which comprises a clipping member adapted to fold between a clipping position and a releasing position,
- wherein at said clipping position, said clipping member is rested on said displaying surface of said utility panel along said utility edge adapted for securely clipping the object on said displaying surface,
- wherein at said releasing position, said clipping member is pivotally lifted up from said displaying surface of said utility panel for allowing replacement of the object on said displaying surface,
- wherein said first edge frame comprises an elongated supporting arm having an elongated outer wall and an elongated inner wall to form an arc-shaped holding slot therebetween, wherein said inner wall has a closed stopping surface and said outer wall has an opened stopping surface,
- wherein said second edge frame comprises an elongated pivot arm, having an arc-shaped body portion and an end portion integrally extended therefrom, pivotally received in and extended along said holding slot of said first edge frame and said clipping member extended from said pivot arm, in such a manner that when said clipping member is at said clipping position, said clipping member is rested on said displaying surface of said utility panel along said utility edge that said end portion of said pivot arm is moved in said holding slot to stop at said closed stopping surface thereof, and when said clipping member is at said releasing position, said clipping member is pivotally lifted up from said displaying surface of said utility panel that said body portion of said pivot arm is moved out of said holding slot until said end portion of said pivot arm is moved within said holding slot to be stopped at said opened stopping surface thereof,
- wherein said second edge frame further comprises a retention arm integrally and outwardly extended from a lower end of said body portion of said pivot arm to define an arc-shaped supporting slot between said pivot arm and said retention arm, wherein said outer wall of said first edge frame is shaped and sized to slidably fit in said supporting slot, wherein said retention arm has an inner retention surface and a pivot end extended from said retention surface to bias against said outer wall such that said pivot end of said retention arm forms a pivot point of said second edge frame with respect to said first edge frame to guide said pivot arm to slide within said holding slot while said retention surface of said retention arm is biased against an outer surface of said outer wall when said clipping member is folded to rest on said displaying surface of said utility panel;
- and
- a resilient element coupling with said second edge frame for applying a clipping force to said clipping member to retain said clipping member at said clipping position, such that said clipping member of said second edge frame is adapted for securely holding said object on said utility panel of said case body along said utility edge thereof.
