Cases for Electronic Devices - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18355231 titled 'Cases for Electronic Devices
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a patent application for an electronic device, such as a head-mounted device, with a main housing portion that separates an interior region from a surrounding exterior region. The device includes flexible protruding portions that form a flexible tab and a flexible flap for size adjustments to the interior region. A cover with an opening can move between an open and closed position to enclose the head-mounted device within the interior region. Deformable protrusions in the case seal openings in the head-mounted device when it is in the interior region.
- Main housing portion separates interior and exterior regions
- Flexible tab and flap for size adjustments
- Cover with opening for enclosing the device
- Deformable protrusions seal openings in the device

Unanswered Questions
How does this technology compare to existing head-mounted device designs in terms of user comfort and adjustability?
This article does not provide a direct comparison to existing head-mounted device designs in terms of user comfort and adjustability. Further research and user testing would be needed to determine the advantages of this technology over existing designs.
What materials are used in the construction of the flexible tab, flap, cover, and deformable protrusions, and how do they impact the durability and usability of the device?
The article does not specify the materials used in the construction of the flexible tab, flap, cover, and deformable protrusions. Understanding the materials and their impact on durability and usability would be crucial for assessing the overall quality of the device.
Original Abstract Submitted
A case for an electronic device such as a head-mounted device may have a main housing portion that separates an interior region from a surrounding exterior region. The main housing portion may have an opening through which the head-mounted device is received into the interior region. Flexible protruding portions of the main housing portion may form a flexible tab and a flexible flap. To make size adjustments to the interior region, the flexible tab may slide within an opening in a cover. The cover may be configured to move between an open position in which the opening is uncovered and a closed position in which the head-mounted device is enclosed within the interior region by the main housing portion and the cover. Deformable protrusions in the case may be used to seal openings in the head-mounted device when the device is in the interior region.
