ABSTRACT:
A latch for affixing a clip (102) onto a housing (104)that encloses a portable electronic device. The latch, integrally molded with the clip (102), comprises a bar (208) disposed within an aperture (210) having a circumferential edge (212). The bar (208)includes a stub extrusion (214) that is disposed distally and perpendicularly at an unaffixed first end (216), and connects to the circumferential edge (212) at an affixed second end (218). Reinforcing the bar (208) and the stub extrusion (214)laterally on a first side (224)is a first flange (220). A second flange (222) reinforces the bar 208 laterally on a second side (226) that is opposite to the first side (224). The stub extrusion (214) affixes the clip to the housing by engaging a catch extrusion (110) and a slot (112) disposed on the housing (104).
