  • Publication number: 20090303668
    Abstract: A battery cover latching mechanism used in portable electronic device (10) is described including a cover member (11), a housing member (12), a latch base (14), a latch member (13), and a return member (15). The latch base can be securely attached to the housing member. The latch member is mounted on the latch base and movable relative to the latch base to latch the cover member to the housing member. The return member is compressed when the cover member is latched to the housing member. The cover can be detached from the housing either by a movement of the latch member driven by the return member or by another movement further compressing the return member.

  • Publication number: 20090246609
    Abstract: A battery cover latch mechanism (100) used in portable electronic device (200) is described including a cover member (10) and a latch member (20). The cover member defines a fitting cavity (128). The cover member is fitted and slidable within the cavity. The cover member includes a deformable loop structure and a latch portion (26). The loop structure includes a resilient biasing portion (24). The loop structure is deformed and the biasing portion is biased so that the latch member is fitted within the cavity when in a latched position. The loop structure can be further deformed and the biasing portion further biased so that the latch member slides within the fitting cavity and the latch portion is transferred from the latched position to a released position.
