apple granted patent for bendable iphone

Apple has obtained a patent to make a flexible device that can withstand bending and twisting, and a few months ago customers complained about accidental bending of their iPhone 6 phones.
The Patent and Trademark Office of the United States approved the patent on Tuesday to manufacture \"flexible electronic equipment\", which may include \"flexible display, flexible housing and one or more flexible internal components \".
The patent was originally filed in 2011 and may not necessarily have some knowledge of future Apple products, as many tech companies file patents to prevent competitors from licensing certain features or inventions.
Flexible equipment may be more resistant to bending or deformation than rigid equipment, while absorbing the impact of falling, the patent explains that the movement of twisting it can be used as a command trigger for actions such as opening or closing the device.
The outer chassis of the unit can be made of light plastic, thin glass, or a composite designed to withstand bending.
Internal components such as circuit boards, sensors and motors can be covered in the form of a flexible housing to prevent damage.
Apple customers spend $500 a week on the App Store, and women are more likely to have iPhones than men. The UK gave up Android and turned to Apple\'s smart watch patent for iOS. In last October, the company obtained a similar patent for flexible display. And once in February 2013.
Shortly after the release of the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus in last September, some customers complained about their 5. 5-
Inch 6 Plus phone seems bent after being loaded with imported bags.
Apple said only nine customers complained that the phone could not be bent when used normally.
