An electronic device can be inserted into a pocket formed with a main cover through between a side cover and the main cover. A part of the electronic device where an operating stick is formed can be stored in a flap formed with the side cover. The upper end of the flap rim of the side cover is positioned further away from the center line C1 of the case than the lower end is. The pocket rim of the main cover gets closer to the center line C1 of the case as it goes from the upper end to the lower end. According to a case including the main cover and the side cover, insertion/removal work of the electronic device can be facilitated, undesired exposure of the electronic device can be prevented, and a load applied to the operating stick can be readily reduced.

1. A case for storing a portable electronic device by utilizing stretchability of the case, the electronic device including a display screen on a front surface thereof, an operating stick arranged on the front surface and positioned on either one side of right and left sides of the display screen, a first part forming a part on the one side of the electronic device and having the operating stick, and a second part forming a remaining part of the electronic device and having the display screen, the case comprising: a back cover for covering a rear surface of the electronic device; anda front cover for covering the front surface of the electronic device, wherein:the front cover includes a side cover for covering the first part, and a main cover for covering the second part,the main cover, together with the back cover, forms a pocket capable of storing the second part so that the second part can be inserted into, and removed from, the pocket through between the main cover and the side cover, and includes a pocket rim defined as a rim of the pocket,the pocket rim of the main cover includes an extending part extending in an insertion/removal direction for the pocket along an outer peripheral rim of the back cover, such that a second gap is defined between the extending part and the outer peripheral rim of the back cover,the side cover, together with the back cover, forms a flap capable of storing the first part, and includes a flap rim defined as a rim overlapping the main cover,one end of the flap rim is positioned further away from a center line defining a center of the case in the insertion/removal direction for the pocket, compared with another end of the flap rim,one end of the pocket rim, which is defined as an end toward the one end of the flap rim, is positioned further away from the center line compared with another end of the pocket rim in the insertion/removal direction,a first gap is defined between the another end of the pocket rim and the another end of the flap rim, such that an opening is formed between the first and second gaps whereby access to a portion of the portable electronic device may be obtained, andthe pocket rim gets closer to the center line as it goes from the one end to the other end. 2. The case according to claim 1, wherein the one end of the flap rim is positioned closer to the center line than is the one end of the pocket rim. 3. The case according to claim 1, wherein a width by which the side cover overlaps the main cover is larger at a middle of the pocket rim and a middle of the flap rim, respectively, than at the one ends thereof. 4. The case according to claim 1, wherein the pocket rim includes a curved part positioned toward the other end thereof and curved toward the center line. 5. The case according to claim 4, wherein the pocket rim is curved in the curved part toward the center line of the case and thereafter extends toward the center line in the insertion/removal direction. 6. The case according to claims 1, wherein the pocket rim is positioned closer to the center line than the operating stick is when the electronic device is stored. 7. The case according to claims 1, wherein: an outer circumferential rim of the case includes a linear part extending linearly in the insertion/removal direction and a curved part extending from the linear part in a direction perpendicular to the insertion/removal direction while being curved, andthe one end of the flap rim is positioned at the boundary between the linear part and the curved part. 8. The case according to claims 3, wherein the width becomes gradually larger as such width goes from the one ends of the flap rim and the pocket rim, respectively, toward the other ends thereof. 9. The case according to claims 8, the flap rim is formed more sharply diagonal relative to the insertion/removal direction along the center line of the case than is the pocket rim. 10. The case according to claims 1, the flap rim is formed linear and diagonal relative to the insertion/removal direction.
