Full Description:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
       [0001]    The inventions disclosed herein generally relate to mobile phone cases. More specifically, they relates to a mobile phone case integrated with a selfie-stick. 
         [0002]    With the selfie photograph turning into a fashion, selfie-stick also becomes much more popular. Selfie-stick, with a long pole attached to mobile or camera, may function as photo taking assisting device. Hand-held selfie portrait may only include few people due to the limitation of one&#39;s arm&#39;s length. With the help of a selfie-stick, shooting angle and range are much bigger. More people and larger scale of backgrounds can be included into a single photo. Till now the selfie-stick is a separate part and has not been successfully integrated with a cell phone. The selfie-stick is usually carried separately from the phone or camera. Additional storage space is required to store a selfie-stick. In sum, innovative solutions are needed to solve these issues and shortcomings with current designs of selfie-stick for selfie photo shooting.

       DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
       [0014]    The following description provides details with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the inventions may be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. 
         [0015]    As shown in  FIGS. 1 through 3 , the mobile phone case disclosed herein includes the main case body  11 , the cellphone back board  12  and selfie-stick  2 . 
         [0016]    As shown in  FIGS. 1, 2 and 3 , the main case body of cellphone case  11  may cover and protect a cellphone  3 . The shape and size of the main case body  11  may be redesigned to fit the different brands and shapes of a cellphone  3 . An installation hole  111  is located at the back of the main case body  11 . The installation hole  111  functions as the connection point to selfie-stick  2 . A storage groove  112  is located in the main cellphone case body  11 . The cellphone back board  12  is located inside the main case body  11 , facing a cellphone. The shape and size of the cellphone back board  12  matches to the cellphone  3 . The side of the cellphone back board  12  facing the cellphone  3  is flat. The other side of the cellphone back board  12  connects with the selfie-stick. The main case body  11  and the cellphone back board  12  are detachably attached with snap posts or screws. 
         [0017]    As shown in  FIGS. 2 and 3 , the selfie-stick  2  connects to the back of the main cellphone case body. The selfie-stick is extendable. When not used, the selfie-stick  2  may fold into the storage groove  112 . 
         [0018]    As shown in  FIG. 3 , the integrated selfie-stick  2  contains a rotary rod  21  and an adjustable rod  22 . The rotary rod  21  has an L shaped exterior. One side of the rotary rod is attached into the back of the main cellphone case body. The other side of the rotary rod is attached to the adjustable rod  22 . This design makes the adjustable and rotary rods easily foldable. To fully integrate the selfie stick into the cellphone case, a first connection hole  211  is located at one side of the rotary rod. The first connection hole is in round shape and matches the installation hole  111  that is located in the main cellphone case body  11 . The rotary rod  21  connects to the main case body  11  via a first bolt knob. The bolt portion  231  is located at the center of the first bolt knob  23 . The length of the first bolt knob  23  is substantially the same or longer than the sum of the thickness of the rotary rod  21  and the main case body  11 , which makes it possible for the bolt knob to pass through the rotary rod  21  and the main case body  11  and reaches to the other side of the main case body  11 . The far end of the first bolt knob has external thread and may have a screw nut. A first position lock  24  is inserted inside the installation hole  111  and cannot rotate. A positioning groove is located in the installation hole  111 . A positioning component, matching the positioning groove, is located at the first position lock  24 . The first position lock  24  is inserted into the positioning groove in the installation hole  111 . The first position lock  24  is then fixed to ensure that the rotary rod remains connected with the main case body. The first position lock includes an axial hole  241 . The rotary rod  21  connects to the back of the main case body  11 . The first connection hole  211  is located on one side of the rotary rod  21  and faces the axial hole  241  in the first position lock  24 . The bolt portion  231 , which is part of first bolt knob  23 , passes through the first connection hole  211  and the axial hole  241  and extends to the other side of the main case body  11 . The end of the bolt portion can be screwed into the main case body  11 . The rotary rod  21  connects to the back side of the main case body  11 . 
         [0019]    The other side of the rotary rod  21  connects with the adjustable rod  22 . A first connection component  212  is located on the other side of rotary rod  21 . The first connection component includes one or more spaced compartments designed hook with the adjustable rod. A second connection hole  213  is located in the first connection component  212 . The second connection hole matches the third connection hole in the second connection component, which allows a connection with the adjustable rod  22  through a second bolt knob  25 . The axis of the second connection hole  213  is perpendicular to the axis of the first connection hole  211 . The selfie-stick  2  can be rotated towards at least three directions, which make it possible to rotate freely to take selfie photos. 
         [0020]    The adjustable rod  22  is designed as a hollow stick that includes a selfie control device. A selfie control button  221  is located on the outside of the adjustable rod  22  and connects to the selfie control device. The design of a selfie control device may be found in prior or current known designs. A U shaped second connection component  222  is located at the connection side of the adjustable rod  22 . The size and shape of the second connection component  222  matches the first connection component  212 . The second connection component  222  can be inserted into the first connection component  212 . A third connection hole  223 , which matches the size of the second connection hole  213 , is located at the second connection component  222 . The bolt portion  251  is located at the center of a second bolt knob  25 . The length of the bolt portion  251  is substantially the same or longer than the length of the first connection component  212 . The far end of the bolt portion  251  has external thread which may be connected to a screw nut. All three sizes, i.e., the diameter of the bolt portion  251 , the diameter of the second connection hole  213 , and the diameter of the third connection hole  223  matches with each other. The bolt portion  251  passes through the first connection component  212 , the connection hole on the second connection component  222 , and extends to the second connection hole  213  located in the rotary rod  21 . The far end of the bolt portion  251  has thread and may be fixed by a screw nut. The rotary rod  21  and the adjustable rod  22  are therefore connected. 
         [0021]    Rotary bolt knobs connects the rotary rod to the main case body  11  and the adjustable rod  22 , which make it possible to rotate freely when taking a selfie photo. The storage groove  112  may store selfie-stick when not in use. These new cellphone cases with a foldable selfie-stick may not only protect a cellphone but also make it convenient to take selfie photo. 
         [0022]    Although exemplary embodiments of the present inventions have been illustrated in the accompanied drawings and described in the foregoing detailed description, it will be understood that the invention is not limited to the embodiments disclosed, but is capable of numerous rearrangements, modifications, and substitutions without departing from the spirit of the invention as set forth and defined by the following claims.
