Abstract: A scanning assembly for scanning at least one object appearing in a field of view includes a circuit board, a shock assembly adjacent to the circuit board, a scanning module defining a scanning axis defined along a first side of the module, a shielding assembly at least partially surrounding the scanning module, and a frame assembly including at least one opening to accommodate at least a portion of the shielding assembly. The scanning module is operably coupled to the shock assembly such that the shock assembly is disposed between the scanning module and the circuit board. The frame restricts movement of the scanning module and the shielding assembly. The scanning module and the shock assembly are movable in a direction parallel to the scanning axis, and the shock assembly is adapted to dampen a force exerted by the scanning module on the circuit board.

Abstract: A mobile computing device includes: a housing with a lower wall, a keypad seat and side walls joining the lower wall to the keypad seat and extending upwards from the keypad seat to a bay opening. The walls define an access compartment between the lower wall, the side walls and the keypad seat, and a keypad bay for a keypad module between the keypad seat, the side walls and the bay opening. The device includes a latch slidably mounted to the keypad seat between locked and unlocked positions, including: a hook to engage a keypad module recess in the locked position and secure the keypad module in the bay, and to disengage from the recess in the unlocked position to enable removal of the keypad module; and an activation member in the access compartment to receive an input to transition the latch from the unlocked position to the locked position.
