Hand held mobile device containing comfort perches
The present disclosure provides methods and systems for a hand held mobile device that has a front surface, two side surfaces, and a bottom surface wherein the bottom surface partially includes a battery pack having an outer surface that forms an integral relationship with the bottom surface. The first perch and second perch at least partially extend away from the outer surface of the battery pack of the hand held mobile device. The first perch and the second perch are in a spaced-apart arrangement for allowing the finger of a user to be positioned between the first perch and the second perch during use of the hand held mobile device.
1. A hand held mobile device having a front surface, two side surfaces, and a bottom surface wherein the bottom surface partially includes a battery pack having an outer surface that forms an integral relationship with the bottom surface, comprising a first perch and a second perch at least partially extending away from the battery pack and positioned proximate to a center of gravity of the device, the first perch and the second perch are in a spaced-apart arrangement for allowing a finger of a user to be positioned between the first perch and the second perch, wherein the first perch comprises an arcuate top portion and two side portions, the arcuate top portion substantially extending the width of the bottom surface of the device and having an apex near the center line of the bottom surface of the device and extending downwardly therefrom, the side portions of the first perch being in a spaced-apart relationship and the distance between the side portions decreasing as the first perch extends away from the bottom surface.
2. The hand held mobile device of claim 1 , wherein the first perch and the second perch are contoured from the center point of the first perch for receiving and conforming with the natural curvature of the finger of a user.
3. The hand held mobile device of claim 1 , wherein the first perch and the second serve no operational function.
4. The hand held mobile device of claim 1 , further comprising a third perch at least partially extending away from the battery pack.
5. The hand held mobile device of claim 1 , further comprising at least two perches in addition to the first perch and the second perch.
6. The hand held mobile device of claim 1 , wherein the first perch and the second perch are removable.
7. The hand held mobile device of claim 1 , wherein the second perch that has a top portion and a concave side portion.
8. A hand held mobile device; comprising
a housing having a front surface, two side surfaces, and a bottom surface, wherein the bottom surface partially includes a battery pack having an outer surface that forms an integral relationship with the bottom surface,
at least two, spaced apart perches positioned on the battery pack proximate to a center of gravity of the device and at least partially extending away from the battery pack, wherein the at least two perches provide a frictional surface for engaging the fingers of a user and allowing a user to comfortably hold the hand held mobile device, wherein a first perch of the at least two, spaced apart perches comprises an arcuate top portion and two side portions, the arcuate top portion substantially extending the width of the bottom surface of the housing and having an apex near the center line of the bottom surface of the housing and extending downwardly therefrom, the side portions of the first perch being in a spaced-apart relationship and the distance between the side portions decreasing as the first perch extends away from the bottom surface.
9. The hand held mobile device of claim 8 , wherein the at least two perches are contoured from the center point of the first perch for receiving and conforming with the natural curvature of the finger of a user.
10. The hand held mobile device of claim 8 , wherein the at least two perches serve no operational function.
11. The hand held mobile device of claim 8 , wherein the at least two perches are removable.
12. The hand held mobile device of claim 8 , wherein the second perch has a top portion and a concave side portion.
13. A method for comfortably and securely retaining a hand held mobile device in the hand of a user, comprising:
providing a hand held mobile device having a front surface with a top portion and a bottom portion, two side surfaces, and a bottom surface, wherein the bottom surface partially includes a battery pack having an outer surface that forms an integral relationship with the bottom surface, and a first perch and a second perch disposed on the outer surface of the battery pack proximate to a center of gravity of the hand held mobile device, wherein the first perch comprises an arcuate top portion and two side portions, the arcuate top portion substantially extending the width of the bottom surface of the device and having an apex near the center line of the bottom surface of the device and extending downwardly therefrom, the side portions of the first perch being in a spaced-apart relationship and the distance between the side portions decreasing as the first perch extends away from the bottom surface;
positioning the index finger of a user between the first perch and the second perch and the thumb of a user on the front surface of the hand held mobile device for operating the hand held mobile device;
engaging the index finger of the user to the first perch while the thumb of the user is operating the bottom portion of the hand held mobile device; and
repositioning the index finger of the user to the second perch while the thumb of the user is operating the top portion of the hand held mobile device.
14. The method of claim 13 , further comprising:
providing a first perch and a second perch that are removable.
