  • Publication number: 20060128352
    Abstract: A door latch (20) for a compartment (11) for a portable product housing (10) includes an outer shell (14) to capture the door latch, to capture a spring mechanism (40), and to enable the door latch to translate on the portable product housing. The door latch further includes an inner latch piece (12) to rotate while remaining captured by the outer shell and to create engagement between the door latch and the portable product housing while preventing disengagement. The outer shell can further capture the inner latch piece and the inner latch piece can further include a feature (18) for preventing over-rotation in both a locked and an unlocked position. The door latch can be made using double shot molding or in-mold assembly techniques. Operationally, the door latch can translate on the portable product housing by traversing a slot (30) using a locking tooth (17) on the inner latch piece.
