A protective case for housing a mobile device is provided. The case comprises a shell assembly including a top shell and a bottom shell that at least partially enclose and form a perimeter around the device. The case further includes a backing assembly comprising an upper backing element and a lower backing element configured to join together along a parting line between a top end and a bottom end of the shell assembly. The case also includes a lock assembly for use in drawing together the upper and lower backing elements to hold the components of the shell assembly together.

Mobile device case with integrated locking assembly

A protective case for housing a mobile device is provided. The protective case comprises a top shell that seals against a top surface of a device and a bottom shell that cradles the back of the device. The top shell provides a downward extension along its perimeter that fits within a pocket formed around at least a portion of the perimeter of the bottom shell. At least the top shell forms an outward extending protrusion that is gripped by one or more backing elements that slide over the exterior of the bottom shell and extend up around the protrusion to grip the top shell and secure it to the bottom shell. Where upper and lower backing elements are used that meet at a parting line along the outer (exterior) surface of the bottom shell, a locking mechanism may be used to pull the backing elements together and hold them in place.
