  • Patent number: 11267639
    Abstract: A shipping container includes an insulated base, an upper perimeter portion including one or more securing mechanisms, insulated side panels, and an insulated lid. Each of the insulated side panels is movable between a respective first position and a respective second position, wherein the shipping container is in the first configuration when all of the insulated side panels are in the first positions and collapses into the second configuration when all of the side panels are in the second positions. The insulated lid is removably attachable for selectively closing and accessing an internal storage volume. Each of the securing mechanisms is configured to removably secure the upper perimeter portion to the insulated base when the shipping container is in the second configuration. Each of the securing mechanisms is also configured to removably secure the insulated lid to the upper perimeter portion in both the first and the second configurations.

  • Patent number: 11031969
    Abstract: A protective case for use with an electronic device includes a case portion configured to cover a back and sides of the electronic device when the electronic device is installed in the protective case. The case portion defines an aperture for directly accessing a front of the installed electronic device. The aperture has dimensions greater than or equal to corresponding dimensions of the electronic device. The case portion includes a first fastener material permanently attached to an inside back surface of the case portion. The protective case also includes a second fastener material configured to be permanently attached to the back of the electronic device at a location configured to align with the first fastener material when the electronic device is installed in the protective case. The second fastener material is configured to removably adhere to the first fastener material to removably retain the electronic device in the case portion.

  • Patent number: 10623043
    Abstract: A protective case for use with an electronic device includes a first case portion having an attached first resilient compressible pad and a second case portion having an attached second resilient compressible pad. The second case portion is configured to be removably attachable to the first case portion. The attached first and second case portions define an aperture for directly accessing a front of the installed electronic device. The aperture has dimensions greater than or equal to corresponding dimensions of the electronic device. The first and second resilient compressible pads are each configured to be compressed by opposing sides of the installed electronic device. The first and second resilient compressible pads are further configured to apply opposing forces to the opposing sides of the installed electronic device, respectively, to retain the installed electronic device in the protective case.
