Abstract: A protective case includes a chassis having sides and a back that define a cavity with an opening for an electronic device. The back has an inner back surface configured to be adjacent to a back surface of the installed electronic device. The protective case also includes a suspension system having a first cushion and a second cushion. The first cushion is configured to contact the back surface of the installed electronic device and to provide an air gap between the chassis and the back of the installed electronic device. The second cushion is configured to contact side surfaces of the installed electronic device and to contact a front surface of the installed electronic device to form a seal with the front surface of the installed electronic device.

Abstract: A protective case for an electronic device includes a chassis, a back portion, and an internal suspension system. The chassis includes a cavity having inner surfaces. The back portion is attached to the chassis and adjacent to a back surface of the electronic device when the electronic device is installed in the protective case. The internal suspension system is positioned in the cavity and attached to the inner surfaces of the chassis and to the back portion of the protective case. The internal suspension system includes multiple cushion portions. One of the cushion portions contacts part of the back surface of the electronic device. The internal suspension system protects the installed electronic device from external forces and provides an air gap between the protective case and a back surface of the installed electronic device.

Abstract: A protective case for a mobile electronic device can include a sliding back portion that permits quick and easy installation and removal of the mobile device. The protective case can include a chassis that resists bending or flexing during an impact event, thereby reducing stresses imparted to components of the mobile device housed in the protective case during the impact event. The protective case can include surface coverings to absorb and dissipate impact energy resulting from the impact event, thereby reducing impact forces transmitted to the mobile device. The protective case can include an internal suspension system configured to protect the electronic device from drop-induced damage and to preserve the resale value of an electronic device by minimizing cosmetic damage to external surfaces of the electronic device while housed in the case. In some examples, the protective case can be waterproof.
