Curvature estimates for properly immersed $\phi_{h}$-bounded   submanifolds
  Jorge-Koutrofiotis and Pigola-Rigoli-Setti proved sharp sectional curvature estimates for extrinsically bounded submanifolds. Alias, Bessa and Montenegro showed that these estimates hold on properly immersed cylindrically bounded submanifolds. On the other hand, Alias, Bessa and Dajczer proved sharp mean curvature estimates for properly immersed cylindrically bounded submanifolds. In this paper we prove these sectional and mean curvature estimates for a larger class of submanifolds, the properly immersed $\phi$-bounded submanifolds.
