Abstract: The present invention provides a locking mechanism in a mobile terminal and method of manufacturing the same. The locking mechanism comprises a lock button, a slide latch, and spring member. The slide latch may slide between a first position and a second position and comprises a hole and snaps, the hole is on the top of the slide latch and extends through the slide latch, the snaps are at the front side of the slide latch. The lock button is in the hole and comprises a press part and a support part, the support part being connected to the press part and extending downward from the press part through the hole to be in contact with the contact part on the spring member; the spring member is fixed with the slide latch and comprises an spring reaction part, a contact part and a protrusion part, the contact part being in contact with the support part of the lock button and a force from the support part causing a spring deformation in the spring reaction part.
