  • Patent number: 9480175
    Abstract: A case structure and an electronic device with the case structure thereof are disclosed. The case structure includes a main body, an outer cover, a first button structure, and a sliding element. The outer cover includes a locking member, a retaining block, and an accommodation portion. The locking member and the retaining block can be detachably connected to the main body. The first button structure is installed in the accommodation portion and includes a first extension member extended to a locking notch. A hook structure is connected to the retaining block. When the first button structure slides toward a first moving direction, the first extension member drives the sliding element, such that the protruding member pushes the retaining block to be detached from the hook structure, and therefore the outer cover is lifted to be detached from the main body.

  • Patent number: 8797725
    Abstract: A power adapter device is to be applied to an electronic device, and includes a power adapter and a carrying pad. The power adapter includes a power adapter body, which has a pad-connecting end and a pad-storing end opposite to said pad-connecting end. The carrying pad has a free end, and an adapter-connecting end opposite to the free end and connected to the pad-connecting end. The carrying pad is switchable with respect to the power adapter body between an unfolded state, where the carrying pad is unfolded at one side of the power adapter body with the free end remote from the power adapter body, and a stored state, where the carrying pad is folded toward the power adapter body with the free end being close to the pad-storing end.
