  • Publication number: 20240007140
    Abstract: A protective case for a foldable electronic device. The protective case includes a first member configured for receiving the first portion of the foldable electronic device and a second member configured for receiving the second portion of the foldable electronic device. The first member and the second member are in a plane when the protective case and the foldable electronic device are in the opened position. The protective case also includes a hinge member configured to extend over the hinge portion of the foldable electronic device when the protective case is installed on the foldable electronic device. The hinge member is movably attached to the first member and the second member. The hinge member is configured to move away from the plane in a substantially perpendicular direction when the protective case is transitioned from the closed position to the opened position.

  • Patent number: 11556154
    Abstract: A protective case for a foldable electronic device having a first member configured for slidably receiving a first portion of the foldable electronic device. The first member has a first ball extending from the first member. The protective case also has a second member configured for slidably receiving a second portion of the foldable electronic device. The second member has a second ball extending from the second member. The protective case also includes sockets for receiving the ball members, wherein each of the balls rotates within a respective one of the sockets in multiple axes such that the hinge member pivots inward when the protective case is transitioned from the opened position to the closed position to prevent the foldable electronic device from sliding out of the protective case.

  • Patent number: 11498727
    Abstract: A storage container includes a base having an interior storage volume, a lid, and a latch configured to move between an unsecured position in which the lid is movable from the closed position and a secured position in which the lid is retained in the closed position. The latch is configured to extend through an aperture defined by the lid and the base. The latch includes an extended edge to prevent the latch from passing entirely through the aperture. The latch is captured by the lid and floats within the lid portion of the aperture. The latch also includes a resilient portion configured to engage an opening in the base portion of the aperture to selectively retain the lid and the body in the closed position when the latch is in the secured position.

  • Patent number: 11402877
    Abstract: A protective case for a foldable electronic device. The protective case includes a first member, a second member, and a hinge member. The first and second members each have a ball extending from an edge. The hinge member has a first socket and a second socket in which the first ball and the second ball, respectively, are captured and rotate thereby permitting the first member to articulate relative to the second member such that the foldable electronic device electronic remains articulable between the closed positions and the opened position when the protective case is installed on the foldable electronic device. The hinge member is configured to pivot inward when the protective case is transitioned from the opened position to the closed position to prevent the foldable electronic device from sliding out of the protective case.

  • 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.
