ABSTRACT:
A docking device for a data collection terminal comprises a latch which positively retains an inserted data collection terminal in a docking position in which communication contacts are communicatively coupled to complementary contacts on the docking device. The latch urges an inserted data collection terminal into a latched rest position with an optimal minimum contact engagement force, such that any shock or vibration has a tendency to increase the contact engagement force to thereby eliminate an inadvertent opening of contacts due to shock or vibration.
