    • BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
  • The invention relates generally to smartphone accessories, and specifically to an ergonomic case for a smartphone. Persons who use smartphones, such as the iPhone and BlackBerry, often find that the smartphone will easily slip out of their hands while using it. A smooth finish on the smartphone case is popular among both users and manufacturers, exacerbating the problem. Aside from the inconvenience of having a phone call or data download interrupted, there is a substantial risk that the smartphone will be damaged, destroyed, or lost when dropped. A case with finger indentations strategically placed around the edge, in an ergonomic manner, will provide a firm grip, and resolve this problem.
    • SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
  • Accordingly, the invention is directed to an ergonomic case for a smartphone. The case features contoured finger grips at appropriate locations around the outside surface, in a pattern that provides a comfortable and ergonomic grip for a hand. Specifically, three or four finger indentations are provided in the position of use in voice calling mode. The finger indentations may be located on either side, depending on whether the particular embodiment is intended for right or left handed users. An additional thumb indentation may optionally be provided on the opposite side. The finger indentations and thumb indentations are used to hold the smartphone, to provide a more comfortable and secure grip for the fingers, and may include ridges or another high-friction surface in the indentations.
  • Additional features and advantages of the invention will be set forth in the description which follows, and will be apparent from the description, or may be learned by practice of the invention. The foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory and are intended to provide further explanation of the invention.

  • The fourth exemplary embodiment (shown in FIG. 5) of the case 10 is preferably for right handed users. Two finger indentations 11 are provided on the left side of the case 10, and one pinky indentation 13 is provided on the bottom of the case 10.
  • The fifth exemplary embodiment (shown in FIG. 6) of the case 10 is preferably for left handed users. Two finger indentations 11 are provided on the right side of the case 10, and one pinky indentation 13 is provided on the bottom of the case 10.
  • The sixth exemplary embodiment (shown in FIG. 7) of the case 10 is preferably for right handed users. Two finger indentations 11 are provided on the left side of the case 10.
  • The seventh exemplary embodiment (a reversal of the embodiment shown in FIG. 7) of the case 10 is preferably for left handed users. Two finger indentations 11 are provided on the right side of the case 10.
  • The eighth exemplary embodiment (shown in FIG. 8) of the device 10 is preferably for right or left handed user. Two finger indentations 11 are provided on both the left and right side of the case 10.
  • The ninth exemplary embodiment (shown in FIG. 9) of the device is for right or left handed user. Four finger indentations 11 are provided on both the left and right side of the case 10.

Alternatively, durable flexible materials such as silicone or synthetic rubber materials may be used. Materials listed above are preferable, but artisans will recognize that different materials could be selected without altering the scope of the invention.
  • While the foregoing written description of the invention enables one of ordinary skill to make and use what is presently considered to be the best mode thereof, those of ordinary skill in the art will understand and appreciate the existence of variations, combinations, and equivalents of the specific embodiment, method, and examples herein. The invention should, therefore, not be limited by the above described embodiment, method, and examples, but by all embodiments and methods within the scope and spirit of the invention.
