ABSTRACT:
A carrying assembly (10, 110) having an easy release clip for carrying of an electronic device (12, 112) is disclosed. In both a first and a second preferred embodiment, the easy release clip of the carrying assembly (10, 110) allows a user to insert and remove the electronic device (12, 112) in one step and without having to depress a release key. In the first preferred embodiment, the carrying assembly (10) is adjustable so that the electronic device (12) may be positioned in a horizontal position, a vertical position, or any position between horizontal and vertical. The carrying assembly (10) broadly comprises a rear panel (14), a spring component (16) including an integral leaf spring (46), a retainer button (18), and a base (20). In a second preferred embodiment, the carrying assembly (110) is fitted to a lanyard so that the electronic device (112) may be worn around the user's neck. The carrying assembly (110) broadly comprises a base (114), a catch (116), an actuator (118), and a rear panel (120) having an integral leaf spring (256).
