Magnetic closure for electronic device cases
The magnetic closure for an electronic device case includes a first member detachably attached to an end of a front cover of the case and a second member directly or indirectly attached to a side wall of the electronic device such that the first and second members are magnetically attractable to each other for closing the front cover of the case onto the front surface of the electronic device. The first member is configured to form a clip structure, having a clip base extending to a bend portion and a clip arm extending back along the clip base from the bend portion wherein the clip arm is biased against the clip base. The first member further includes a sliding stopper which is formed by making a “ ”-shaped hole on the clip base and bending up the part surrounded by the hole.
