DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS One embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1 to 5,
1 is a main body 2 and a lid 4 covering the opening 3 of the main body 2
The main body 2 is made of a transparent synthetic resin such as polystyrene or polycarbonate, and the lid 4 is also made of a transparent synthetic resin such as polystyrene or polycarbonate. Is made. The lid 4 is cut out at a portion facing the opening 3 of the main body 2, and a transparent urethane film 6 is attached to the cutout 5, and the cutout 5 is formed.
Water can be prevented from entering the inside from the inside.
The main body 2 is provided with a concave portion 8 for accommodating a portable telephone 7 such as a general mobile phone or PHS. The opening 3 at the upper end of the concave portion 8 is covered with the lid 4.
The main body 2 and the lid 4 have a rectangular shape in plan view with the opening 3 facing upward.
Further, rectangular holes 9 and 10 penetrating in the vertical direction are formed on both sides of the lid 4 facing the longitudinal direction. The holes 9 and 10 are formed at three locations at appropriate intervals on each side facing the longitudinal direction. And
When the opening 3 of the main body 2 is covered with the lid 4, the hole 9 of the main body 2 matches the hole 10 of the lid 4, and the main body 2
In addition, a synthetic resin hinge member 11 for opening and closing the cover 4 with respect to the main body 2 is inserted into the holes 9 and 10 on one side facing the longitudinal direction of the cover 4. A synthetic resin closing member 12 for holding the lid 4 closed is inserted and attached to the hole 10 on the other side that faces. More specifically, the hinge member 11 is integrally provided with claw portions 13 at both ends to be engaged with the openings of the holes 9 and 10, and one side hole of the main body 2 and the lid 4 facing the longitudinal direction. When the hooks 9 and 10 are aligned with each other, the hook 13 at one end of the hinge member 11 is pushed in from one of the holes 9 and 10 so that the hook 13 protrudes from any of the holes 10 and 9. Thereby, the lid 4 is connected to the main body 2. Further, the closing member 12 is integrally provided with a claw portion 14 which is inserted into the hole 10 on the other side facing the longitudinal direction of the lid 4 and is engaged with the opening of the hole 10 on one end side. On the side, there is integrally provided a claw portion 15 which overlaps from the outside of the hole 9 forming portion on the other side facing the longitudinal direction of the main body portion 2 and is engaged with the opening of the hole 9 from outside.

Incidentally, the urethane film 6 has elasticity similar to rubber and very large extensibility, tear resistance,
Has excellent properties such as abrasion resistance. The thickness of the urethane film 6 is about 0.1 to 0.5 mm. In the above configuration, when the mobile phone 7 is stored in the storage waterproof case 1 such as a mobile phone, the cover 4 is opened, the mobile phone 7 is placed in the recess 8, and then the cover 4 is closed.
The closed state of the lid 4 is maintained by locking the claw 15 on the other end side of the closing member 12 to the opening of the hole 9 from outside. When the cover 4 is closed, the portable telephone 7 is configured such that the front operation button side contacts the urethane film 6. As described above, the portable telephone 7 can operate the operation buttons from outside the urethane film 6 in a state of being stored in the waterproof case 1 for storage such as a portable telephone, and the urethane film 6 has a property of transmitting sound. You can talk because you have it. Therefore, the portable telephone 7 can be used safely without touching the water at the seaside, the poolside, or the bathroom in a state of being stored in the storage waterproof case 1 such as the portable telephone.

In the above embodiment, the transparent urethane film 6 is attached to the cutout portion 5 of the lid 4; however, a colored translucent urethane film 6 may be used, or a material similar to rubber may be used. A material other than the urethane film 6 can be used as long as it has elasticity and extremely large extensibility, is excellent in tear resistance, abrasion resistance, etc., and has the property of transmitting sound. In the above embodiment, the main body 2 and the lid 4 are transparent, but may be colored translucent or opaque.

Further, in the above embodiment, the portable telephone 7 is stored and used in the waterproof case 1 for storage such as a portable telephone.
A pedometer, a pager, a radio, an AV remote controller such as a television receiver or a video tape recorder, a computer terminal, and the like may be stored. In such a case, the waterproof case 1 is configured to match the shape of the storage object.

[0010]

As described above, according to the present invention, even when a portable telephone, a portable game machine, a wireless device, or the like is used at the seaside, poolside, or in a bathroom, there is no need to worry about getting wet, and the portable telephone can be used. It is possible to provide a waterproof case for storage of a portable telephone or the like which can be used with peace of mind while storing the telephone or the like.
