Abstract:
A water resistant device case includes a front and back assembly that mate to enclose an electronic device. The front assembly includes a rigid front frame, a touch screen cover bonded to the front frame, an inner bumper attached to the rigid front frame and an elastomeric main seal attached around a periphery of the rigid front frame. The back assembly includes a rigid back frame, an elastomeric over mold formed on an exterior of the back frame and an inner bumper attached to the rigid back frame. A snap tab attached to the rigid back frame mates with a snap hook on the front assembly to hold the front and back assemblies together when the device is enclosed within the case. A main water resistant seal is formed around a perimeter of the front and back assemblies by the elastomeric main seal on the front assembly being held against an inner surface of the rigid back frame. A secondary water resistant seal is formed around a perimeter of the front and back assemblies by an elastomeric secondary sealing member attached around a periphery of the rigid front frame that mates with an exterior surface of the back assembly to form a secondary water resistant seal. A closed cell foam is used to seal apertures associated with the device's audio inputs and outputs.

Claim (Index 7):
The water resistant protective case of  claim 1 , wherein the front assembly and the back assembly further comprise apertures corresponding to a port of the portable electronic device and the protective case further comprises a removable elastomeric port cover that removably covers the apertures, and wherein the removable elastomeric port cover further comprises an attachment protrusion that creates a compression fit between the removable elastomeric port cover and an exterior of the protective case.
