DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used in the present application have the same meanings as commonly understood by those skilled in the technical field of the present application. The terms used in the specification of the present application are merely intended to describe the specific embodiments, rather than limit the present application. The terms “includes” and “has” in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of the present application and any variations thereof are intended to encompass without excluding other content. Terms such as “first” and “second” in the specification and claims or the accompanying drawings of the present application are intended to distinguish between different objects, rather than to describe a specific order.

The term “embodiment” mentioned herein means that a specific feature, structure, or characteristic described in combination with the embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of the present application. The term appearing in different parts of the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or an independent or alternative embodiment exclusive of other embodiments. It may be explicitly or implicitly appreciated by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.

To enable those skilled in the art to well understand the solutions of the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 9, the present application provides a combined laptop-protective case, including a frame and a decorative layer. The frame has a hollow structure. The decorative layer is removably connected with an inner side of the frame, and is arranged between the frame and a laptop. The frame is made of a plastic material. The frame has a specified hardness and ductility. The frame includes a hemming. The hemming is arranged around the frame. The hemming is configured to attach to and connect the laptop. A buckle is provided on the hemming, and the buckle is configured to be clamped with the laptop. The decorative layer has a sheet structure, and can be of various styles such as a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) or polycarbonate (PC) photographic film, a synthetic leather, a cloth, a TPU lettering film, a laser film, a PVC soft film, a synthetic leather, or a print pattern film, such as a rainbow film, a transparent photographic film, and a paper. A photographic film can be decorated through pattern printing, laser etching, vacuum forming, cloth lamination, embossing, and gold stamping, or a gold dust and a quicksand oil is placed between two photographic films to create a flowing effect. The combined laptop-protective case can be equipped with a plurality of decorative layers having different process effects, which provides increased choices for users and increases the diversification of products.

The protective case can be used at a screen side of a laptop in combination with a protective case having another structure. The protective case can also be used at a keyboard side of a laptop in combination with a protective case having another structure. Two protective cases can also be arranged at two sides of a laptop, respectively. It should be understood that an embodiment of using the protective case to protect a screen side of a laptop is different from an embodiment of using the protective case to protect a keyboard side of a laptop, and the arrangement of the protective case at merely an upper side or a lower side also falls within the protection scope of the present application. The present disclosure is further illustrated below with the arrangement of upper and lower sets of protective cases as an example.

In this embodiment, the combined laptop-protective case includes an upper frame 1, an upper decorative layer 2, a lower decorative layer 35, and a lower frame 3.

The upper frame 1 and the lower frame 3 each have a hollow structure. The upper decorative layer 2 is removably connected with an inner side of the upper frame 1. The lower decorative layer 35 is removably connected with an inner side of the lower frame 3. The upper frame 1 and the lower frame 3 each are made of a plastic material. The upper frame 1 includes an upper hemming 11. The upper hemming 11 is arranged around the upper frame 1, and the upper hemming 11 is configured to attach to and connect an upper side of a laptop. Generally, the upper hemming 11 attaches to four side walls of a display screen of the laptop.

The lower frame 3 includes a lower hemming 31. The lower hemming 31 is arranged around the lower frame 3, and the lower hemming 31 is configured to attach to and connect a lower side of the laptop. Generally, the lower hemming 31 attaches to a side wall of a keyboard of the laptop.

Specifically, sizes of the upper frame 1 and the lower frame 3 are adaptive to a size of the laptop. The upper frame 1 attaches to a top surface of the laptop, and the lower frame 3 attaches to a bottom surface of the laptop. The upper frame 1 and the lower frame 3 each are an injection-molded component, and have a specified hardness and ductility. A user can pull the upper frame 1 or the lower frame 3 to make the upper frame or the lower frame deformed, and then release the upper frame or the lower frame after the laptop is wrapped, such that the upper frame 1 or the lower frame 3 is restored and fixed on the laptop.

The upper hemming 11 wraps four side walls of the laptop. Side walls of two long sides of the upper hemming 11 each are provided with an upper buckle 15. As shown in FIG. 5, a longitudinal section of the upper buckle 15 is L-shaped. After the upper frame 1 is assembled, an upper buckle 15 at a side of the upper hemming 11 can just be stuck on a screen of the laptop to assist in the fixation of the screen of the laptop, thereby avoiding the loosening of the laptop. The upper buckle 15 has a very small thickness. When the laptop is in a closed state, the off-screen of the laptop will not be affected. A plurality of avoidance grooves 34 are formed on the lower hemming 31. Because a side wall of the laptop is usually provided with a power supply interface and a universal serial bus (USB) interface, an avoidance groove 34 should be formed at each corresponding position on the lower hemming 31, such that the normal use of the laptop will not be affected. In addition, the lower hemming 31 is not provided at a position where upper and lower sides of the laptop are connected, such that, when the laptop is in an open state, the lower hemming 31 and the rotated upper hemming 11 will not be squeezed together to affect the use. Similarly, the lower hemming 31 is further provided with a lower buckle 311 to clamp a lower side of the laptop.

The upper decorative layer 2 is arranged between the upper frame 1 and the laptop, and the lower decorative layer 35 is arranged between the lower frame 3 and the laptop. The upper decorative layer 2 and the lower decorative layer 35 each are a sheet material prepared separately, and can be of various styles such as a photographic film, a synthetic leather, a cloth, a TPU lettering film, and a laser or print pattern film, such as a rainbow film, a photographic film, and a paper. A photographic film can be decorated through pattern printing, laser etching, vacuum forming, cloth lamination, embossing, and gold stamping. A combined laptop-protective case can be equipped with a plurality of upper decorative layers 2 or lower decorative layers 35 having different process effects, which provides increased choices for users and increases the diversification of products. A size of the upper decorative layer 2 is matched with a size of the laptop. An upper groove 12 can be formed at the inner side of the upper frame 1, and an upper adhesive layer 121 is provided in the upper groove 12. The upper adhesive layer 121 can be an AB glue or the like. The upper decorative layer 2 is connected with the upper frame 1 through the upper adhesive layer 121. A projection area of the upper frame 1 can be as small as possible, such that an area of the upper decorative layer 2 to be exposed in the middle is as large as possible to play the optimal decorative role. When a user wants to replace the upper decorative layer 2, the upper frame 1 is dismantled, the original upper decorative layer 2 is removed, and a new upper decorative layer 2 is assembled. The assembly of the lower decorative layer 35 and the lower frame 3 is similar to the above solution. In a different embodiment, because the groove 12 has a very small thickness, a distance between the upper frame 1 assembled and an upper surface of the laptop is also very small. The upper adhesive layer 121 may not be arranged, and the upper decorative layer 2 can be limited merely by the upper frame 1 and the laptop, which makes it not easy to leave adhesive marks and allows an easy replacement.

In an embodiment, an upper accommodating groove 13 is formed at an inner side of at least one corner of the upper hemming 11, and an upper shockproof sheet 14 is provided in the upper accommodating groove 13. A lower accommodating groove 32 is formed at an inner side of at least one corner of the lower hemming 31, and a lower shockproof sheet 33 is provided in the lower accommodating groove 32. The upper shockproof sheet 14 can pasted in the upper accommodating groove 13 by a glue, and just abuts against four corners of the display screen of the laptop. The lower shockproof sheet 33 can be pasted in the lower accommodating groove 32 by a glue, and just abuts against four corners of the keyboard of the laptop. During transportation or use, corners of the laptop are more likely to be bumped. Therefore, the four corners of the laptop need to be additionally protected. The upper shockproof sheet 14 and the lower shockproof sheet 33 each are made of a silica gel, a rubber, or a PVC material, and have specified elasticity. When the laptop is bumped, the upper shockproof sheet and the lower shockproof sheet can play a buffering effect to protect the laptop.

Optionally, an upper shatter-resistant member 16 is provided at an outer side of at least one corner of the upper frame 1, and a lower shatter-resistant member 39 is provided at an outer side of at least one corner of the lower frame 3. In this embodiment, the upper shatter-resistant member 16 wraps four corners of the upper frame 1, and the lower shatter-resistant member 39 wraps four corners of the lower frame 3. The upper shatter-resistant member 16 and the lower shatter-resistant member 39 each are drip-molded from a soft material. The drip-molding process enables abundant colors and patterns, such that a finished product can have both beauty and practicability. After the drip-molding process is completed, a vacuum forming process is adopted to make the upper shatter-resistant member 16 attach to the upper frame 1 and make the lower shatter-resistant member 39 attach to the lower frame 3. The upper shatter-resistant member 16 and the lower shatter-resistant member 39 are also produced independently. A user can determine whether the upper shatter-resistant member 16 and the lower shatter-resistant member 39 is arranged according to needs.

In this embodiment, a graphene coating 36 is further provided at an inner side of the lower decorative layer 35. Because main structures such as a battery and a motherboard of the laptop all are arranged at a lower side of the laptop, a large amount of heat will be generated when the laptop works, and the graphene coating 36 can play a heat-dissipation role. The graphene coating has a relatively-small thickness and a large contact area with the laptop, and can play a prominent heat-dissipation role.

In addition, a heat-dissipation hole 351 is formed in the lower decorative layer 35, and heat generated by the main structures such as a battery and a motherboard of the laptop during working can be dissipated through the heat-dissipation hole 351 in the lower decorative layer 35, thereby improving a heat-dissipation effect.

In this embodiment, a plurality of avoidance holes 37 are formed in the lower decorative layer 35, a plurality of support grooves 38 are formed on the lower frame 3, and the avoidance holes 37 and the support grooves 38 both are adaptive to support feet of the laptop. Generally, a bottom wall of the laptop is provided with four support feet, and the support feet each are provided with a support cotton, which can play the roles of buffering an impact and reducing a wear for the laptop. Therefore, the avoidance hole 37 should be formed at each corresponding position of the lower decorative layer 35, and a support foot passes through the avoidance hole 37 and then is located inside the support groove 38 to support the laptop.

Apparently, the embodiments described above are merely some rather than all of the embodiments of the present application. Preferred embodiments of the present application are provided in the accompanying drawings, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present application. The present application may be implemented in many different forms. On the contrary, the embodiments are provided such that the disclosure of the present application will be understood thoroughly and comprehensively.
