Abstract: A directionally adjustable mounting device is disclosed for use with a small electronic device such as a wireless camera. Also disclosed is a method of using the mounting device. The mounting device has a housing for receiving the camera extending from and rotatable about bearing. A socket of the housing is biased into frictional contact with the bearing by a spring to inhibit movement of the camera relative to the bearing. The mount is configured to receive an opposing force on the housing to overcome the spring force and allow the camera to be repositioned.

Abstract: A hinge pin assembly for a communication device (100) includes a partially assembled hinge base (105). The base (105) has a receiving receptacle (148), an edge (153) of the receiving receptacle, and a socket (160) having a wall (164). A hinge body member (125) has a first opposed surface (123) and a second opposed surface (124), and an aperture (126) extending from the first opposed surface to the second opposed surface, a side (128) adjoining the first and second opposed surfaces and a slot (141) cut into the side extending from the first opposed surface to the second opposed surface.

Abstract: A hinged flip assembly includes a door cover (120) having a chamber (214) and a hub (122) for rotating along a hinge mechanism (133). A transducer (206) is disposed in the chamber (214). At least one wire (202) is coupled (222) through the hub (122) of the door cover (120) for connecting to the transducer (206). A wire connector (204) terminating the at least one wire (202) and the wire connector (204) is also coupled (222) through the hub (122).

Abstract: A flap housing (14) for a foldable radiotelephone handset (10) has a hinge pin (72) with an actuator (96) for the radiotelephone activation switch (44) and a detent catch (88) integrated with the flap housing body (60). The actuator (96) engages the switch (44) to deactivate the handset (10) when the flap housing (14) is in a closed position. The detent catch (88) engages a detent stop (110) on the front housing (30) of the radiotelephone (10) when the flap housing (14) is in an open position.

Abstract: A mounting arrangement for a circuit board on the neck of a cathode ray tube includes a guide member formed in the cathode ray tube base. The guide member is formed to have a surface extending perpendicular to the tube longitudinal axis. The circuit board incorporates a socket having a channel for receiving the guide member for aligning the socket on the tube base. A portion of a locking piece is inserted through a hole in the socket wall in order to abut the perpendicular surface of the guide member to prevent removal of the socket from the tube base. A second portion of the locking piece forms a hook which cooperates with the socket to prevent inadvertent removal of the locking piece.
