ABSTRACT:
A housing assembly 100 which uses substantially spherical pieces (rubber balls) 106 for supports (feet). The balls 106 drop into the bottom housing member 104 which has apertures 202 which allow the balls 106 to rest. Each of the balls 106 protrude from the bottom portion of the housing. Preferably, each of the aperatures 202 have a peripheral wall 402 around them which surround and capture each of the balls (stop the balls from rolling during the assembly process). Preferably, an electronic circuit board 310 is sandwiched between the rubber balls and the top housing member 102. The two housing members 102 and 104 are then latched together causing the balls 106 to compress and load the housing assembly, taking care of any tolerances the mechanical parts in the assembly may have and also hold the electronic circuit board 310 in place.
