Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 together first, the protective bag 100 provided in the present invention is capable of being used for receiving a portable electronic device 200, and the portable electronic device 200 is capable of being carried on a carrying surface 300 by the protective bag 100. In the present preferred embodiment, the portable electronic device 200 is exemplarily illustrated as a portable electronic device with an integral design, such as a multimedia player (MP3, MP4 and so on), a cell phone, a PDA, a hand-held game console, a tablet PC and so on. However, in other non-illustrated embodiments, the portable electronic device can further be applied to a portable electronic device designed into two bodies capable of being folded relative to each other, such as a netbook, a notebook and so on.

Referring to FIG. 3, the protective bag 100 comprises a first cover 110, a second cover 120 connecting with the first cover 110 and a support element 130. In the present preferred embodiment, the first cover 110 and the second cover 120 are, for example but not limited to, connecting with each other and formed as an integral part, and are capable of being folded relative to each other as illustrated in FIG. 3, so as to enable a first inner surface 112 of the first cover 110 and a second inner surface 122 of the second cover 120 to respectively cover a lower side and an upper side of the portable electronic device 200, i.e. to respectively cover a rear surface and a display surface of the portable electronic device 200. Further, the support element 130 is disposed on the first inner surface 112, and has a first foldable plate 132 and a second foldable plate 134. The first foldable plate 132 and the second foldable plate 134 are capable of being folded relative to each other as illustrated in FIG. 3, so as to be received between the first cover 110 and the second cover 120. Moreover, the first foldable plate 132 can further slant on the first inner surface 112 with a support provided by the second foldable plate 134, so as to enable the portable electronic device 200 to slant on the first inner surface 112 with a support provided by the support element 130.

In detail, in the present preferred embodiment, based upon an orientation as illustrated in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, a left side edge of the first foldable plate 132 is, for example but not limited to, connected with and capable of being folded relative to the inner surface 112 by sewing, fastening, attaching, adhesive and so on. In addition, a left side edge of the second foldable plate 134 is, for example but not limited to, connected with a right side of the first foldable plate 132, and capable of being folded relative to and formed as an integral part with the first foldable plate 132, while a right side edge of the second foldable plate 134 is, for example but not limited to, a free end. As a result, the second foldable plate 134 is capable of being folded between the first foldable plate 132 and the first inner surface 112 and further capable of being folded toward the first inner surface 112 along with the first foldable plate 132, so as to be received between the first cover 110 and the second cover 120 along with the first foldable plate 132 as illustrated in FIG. 3. In contrast, as illustrated in FIG. 4 instead, the second foldable plate 134 is capable of being unfolded relative to the first inner surface 112 along with the first foldable plate 132 and further capable of being unfolded relative to the first foldable plate 132 after the portable electronic device 200 is took out. As a result, the second foldable plate 134 can slant on the first inner surface 112 along with the first foldable plate 132 as illustrated in FIG. 5.

As a result, the right side edge of the second foldable plate 134 can lean against a lower right corner inside the dent 114 after the second foldable plate 134 is unfolded relative to the first foldable plate 132, so as to enable the support element 130 to support the portable electronic device 200 stably by maintaining an included angle between the first foldable plate 132 and the second foldable plate 134. However, it should be directly and unambiguously understood by those of skill in the art that the present invention should not be limited in the embodiment disclosed above.

For example, in the other non-illustrated embodiments, the first cover can also design without any dent for receiving the support element. In another word, the first inner surface can be a viscosity surface formed by a silicon material or a rough surface formed by wool, cloth and so on. In such a case, the right side edge of the second foldable plate can be held on the first inner surface with a friction provided by the first inner surface after the second foldable plate is unfolded relative to the first foldable plate, so as to maintain the included angle between the first foldable plate and the second foldable plate. Alternatively, the first cover can also have a position limiting portion, for example but is not limited to a bump protruding from the first inner surface, disposed on the first inner surface. In such a case, the right side edge of the second foldable plate can be held on the first inner surface by leaning against the position limiting portion after the second foldable plate is unfolded relative to the first foldable plate, so as to maintain the included angle between the first foldable plate and the second foldable plate. Further, the support element can also have a position limiting hinge with a maximum unfolded angle, which is smaller than 180 degrees, and the second foldable plate can be connected with and capable of being folded relative to the first foldable plate via the position limiting hinge. As a result, it is possible to limit a maximum angle after the second foldable plate is unfolded relative to the first foldable plate.

Furthermore, the first cover can further have a first fastener disposed on the first inner surface, and the support element can further have a second fastener disposed on the right side edge of the second foldable plate. In such a case, the right side edge of the second foldable plate can be held on the first inner surface when the first fastener and the second fastener are fastened together after the second foldable plate is unfolded relative to the first foldable plate, so as to maintain the included angle between the first foldable plate and the second foldable plate. In the present preferred embodiment, the first fastener and the second fastener can be a zipper set, a Velcro® set, a snap button set, a pair of permanent magnets with opposite magnet polarities, a combination of a permanent magnet and a ferromagnetic material artifact, a combination of a hook and a locking aperture, a combination of a pin and an inserting aperture, and a combination listed above.

In order to help those of skill in the art to clearly understand the practicable variations of the structure of the present invention, a plurality of exemplary embodiments of the present invention about the structure of the support element 130 and the manners for maintaining the maximum unfolded angle between the second foldable plate 134 and the first foldable plate 132 are further disclosed as below.

FIG. 6 illustrates a cross-sectional view of an unfolded support element according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 6, the support element 130 in the present preferred embodiment can further has a position limiting element 136 connecting to the first foldable plate 132 and the second foldable plate 134, wherein the position limiting element 136 is, for example but not limited to, at least one of a rope, a belt and a two bar linkage. In the present preferred embodiment, based upon an orientation as illustrated in FIG. 6, a left end of the position limiting element 136 is, for example but not limited to, connecting with a lower surface of the first foldable plate 132, a right end of the position limiting element 136 is, for example but not limited to, connecting with a right side edge of the second foldable plate 134, and a length L of the position limiting element 136 is shorter than a sum of a first distance D1 and a second distance D2. Hence, the maximum unfolded angle between the second foldable plate 134 and the first foldable plate 132 will be limited to be smaller than 180 degrees by the position limiting element 136.

Similarly, it should be directly and unambiguously understood by those of skill in the art that the present invention should not be limited in the embodiment disclosed above. In other non-illustrated embodiments, the left end of the position limiting element can connect with the lower surface of the first foldable plate, while the right end of the position limiting element can connect with the lower surface of the second foldable plate. Alternatively, the left end of the position limiting element can connect with a left side edge of the first foldable plate, while the right end of the position limiting element can connect with the lower surface or the right side edge of the second foldable plate. In another word, the maximum unfolded angle between the second foldable plate and the first foldable plate can be effectively limited as long as a total length of the position limiting element is shorter than the sum of the first distance and the second distance, wherein the first distance is measured from the first end of the position limiting element to a junction where the first foldable plate connecting with the second foldable plate, while the second distance is measured from the second end of the position limiting element to the junction.

In addition, the support element 130 can further has an elastic element 138 connecting to the first foldable plate 132 and the second foldable plate 134, wherein the elastic element 138 is, for example but not limited to, at least one of an elastic, a rubber band, a plastic flat spring, a metal flat spring and a torsion spring. In the present preferred embodiment, based upon the orientation as illustrated in FIG. 6, the elastic element 138 is, for example but not limited to, disposed on both of the upper surfaces of the first foldable plate 132 and the second foldable plate 134, wherein a left end of the elastic element 138 is, for example but not limited to, connecting with the left side edge of the first foldable plate 132, and a right end of the elastic element 138 is, for example but not limited to, connecting with the right side edge of the second foldable plate 134. As a result, the elastic element 138 can generate a return force capable of enabling the first foldable plate 132 and the second foldable plate 134 to be unfolded relative to each other when the second foldable plate 134 is folded relative to the first foldable plate 132. In another word, the return force generated by the elastic element 138 automatically unfolds the second foldable plate 134 relative to the first foldable plate 132 as illustrated in FIG. 6 if the second foldable plate 134 folded relative to the first foldable plate 132 is released.

Similarly, it should be directly and unambiguously understood by those of skill in the art that the present invention should not be limited in the embodiment disclosed above. In the other non-illustrated embodiments, the left end of the elastic element can connect with the left side edge of the first foldable plate, while the right end of the elastic element can connect with the upper surface of the second foldable plate. Alternatively, the left end of the elastic element can connect with the upper surface of the first foldable plate, while the right end of the elastic element can connect with the upper surface or the right side edge of the second foldable plate as well. In addition, the elastic element can be disposed on both of the lower surfaces of the first foldable plate and the second foldable plate as well if the elastic element is a combination of at least one of a plastic flat spring, a metal flat spring, a torsion spring and any other compressible elastic element. In such a case, the left end of the elastic element can connect with one of the left side edge and the lower surface of the first foldable plate, and the right end of the elastic element can connect with one of the right side edge and the lower surface of the second foldable plate. It should be noted that, in such an instance, the support element can design without any position limiting element as illustrated in FIG. 6 if the return force provided by the elastic element at an initial status (i.e. at a status without being neither compressed nor stretched) can maintain the included angle between the second foldable plate and the first foldable plate in the specific angle.

FIG. 7 illustrates a cross-sectional view of an unfolded support element according to another embodiment of the present invention, while FIG. 8 illustrates another cross-sectional view of the support element as illustrated in FIG. 7, wherein the support element is folded. Referring to FIG. 7 and FIG. 8 together, in the present preferred embodiment, both of the first foldable plate 132 and the second foldable plate 134 connect with the first inner surface 112. Moreover, both of the first foldable plate 132 and the second foldable plate 134 can be folded toward the first inner surface 112 as illustrated in FIG. 8, so as to be received between the first cover 110 and the second cover 120 as illustrated in FIG. 3. Alternatively, both of the first foldable plate 132 and the second foldable plate 134 can be unfolded away from the first inner surface 112 as illustrated in FIG. 7, so as to enable the first foldable plate 132 to slant on the first inner surface 112 with the support provided by the second foldable plate 134 as illustrated in FIG. 5.

In detail, in the present preferred embodiment, based on the orientation as illustrated in FIG. 7 and FIG. 8, the left side edge of the second foldable plate 134 can lean against one of the lower surface and the right side edge of the first foldable plate 132 via a fastening set, a magnet set, a close fit structure, an embedding structure or a friction force after both of the first foldable plate 132 and the second foldable plate 134 are unfolded away from the first inner surface 112 as illustrated in FIG. 7, so as to enable the first foldable plate 132 to slant on the first inner surface 112 with the support provided by the second foldable plate 134.

In addition, in the other non-illustrated embodiments, the support element can further has an elastic element connecting between the first inner surface and the first foldable plate, wherein the elastic element is, for example but not limited to, at least one of an elastic, a rubber band, a plastic flat spring, a metal flat spring, a torsion spring and a spiral spring. In another word, the elastic and the rubber band can be used for connecting the upper surface of the first foldable plate and the first inner surface since they can provide the return force by being stretched merely, while the spiral spring can be used for connecting the lower surface of the first foldable plate and the first inner surface only. In contrast, the plastic flat spring, the metal flat spring, the torsion spring and the spiral spring can be used for connecting not only the upper surface of the first foldable plate and the first inner surface but also the lower surface of the first foldable plate and the first inner surface since they can provide the return force by being stretched and compressed.

Accordingly, the elastic element generate a return force capable of unfolding the first foldable plate relative to the first inner surface when the first foldable plate is folded toward the first inner surface as illustrated in FIG. 8. In another word, the return force generated by the elastic element can automatically unfolds the first foldable plate relative to the first inner surface as illustrated in FIG. 7 if the folded first foldable plate is released. Similarly, the support element can has an elastic element connecting between the first inner surface and the second foldable plate as well, wherein the structures, the connecting manners and the utilities of the elastic element of the support element are substantially the same as those of the elastic element connecting between the first inner surface and the first foldable plate, and thus are omitted herein.

In summary, in the present invention, the portable electronic device can directly lean on the first foldable plate for operation when the first foldable plate slants on the first inner surface with the support provided by the second foldable plate since the first cover and the second cover can be unfolded relative to each other and the first foldable plate and the second foldable plate can be unfolded relative to each other. As a result, the protective bag of the present invention can not only be used for protecting the portable electronic device, but also be used for readily assisting the portable electronic device in slanting on the carrying surface with the support element therein without carrying or looking for an additional proper support element. Besides, with the assistance of the elastic element, the folded support element can further be automatically unfolded when it is released, so that the protective bag is convenient to be used.

Although specific embodiments of the present invention have been described, it will be understood by those of skill in the art that there are other embodiments that are equivalent to the described embodiments. Accordingly, it is to be understood that the invention is not to be limited by the specific illustrated embodiments, but only by the scope of the appended claims.
