Description:
BACKGROUND OF THE PRESENT INVENTION 
       [0001]    1. Field of Invention 
         [0002]    The present invention relates to a case for a notebook computer. 
         [0003]    2. Description of Related Arts 
         [0004]    A current case for a notebook computer only has the functions of carrying, storing and protecting the notebook computer. When the computer is used at outdoor or in the strong light, the environmental light and the diffused light will normally project on the screen of a personal computer and will disturb the visualization of the user and the color shown on the screen. A shielding hood can be employed to solve the aforesaid problem. But currently, there are only certain particular kinds of case, or individual shielding hoods, or cases provided with small area solar panels at the exterior thereof for us to make the choices. The three kinds of product have disadvantages as follows: the available shielding area of a current case for a notebook computer is so limited that it is hard to meet the user&#39;s need; a foldable shielding hood can not function to carry, store and protect the notebook computer; a case provided with small area solar panels at the exterior thereof has few sunlight gathering area so that the power supply is limited, moreover, this kind of case does not have a function of shielding the ambient light. 
       SUMMARY OF THE PRESENT INVENTION

         [0007]    According to the present invention, the foregoing and other objects and advantages are attained by a case for a notebook computer, wherein the case comprises an upper body and a lower body foldably extended from the upper body. When the upper and lower bodies are folded in a closed state, the upper body couples with the lower body to define a case body that the notebook computer is received within an interior of the case body while the exterior of the case body is sealed to protect the notebook therewithin. The case further comprises a shielding hood provided at the case body and a retention unit for retaining the shielding hood at the notebook computer. The shielding hood comprises a top member and two side members at the two lateral sides of the top member respectively to form a hood body and to define a top closing wall, two side closing walls and a bottom opening for the display of the notebook computer disposing within the hood body. The shape and size of the hook body matches with the shape and size of the display. The shielding hood further comprises a connecting member for connecting the top member with the side members to retain the shape of the hood body.
