ABSTRACT:
An electronic communication device such as a portable radiotelephone includes a housing and a keypad cover mounted on the housing to rotate about a pivot axis. A hinge connects the keypad cover to the housing and includes a pair of hinge pins extending along the pivot axis between the cover and the housing. The cover includes at least one aperture aligned with the hinge pins, the apertures allowing access to the hinge pins from outside the device to facilitate removal of the keypad cover from the housing. Additionally, the hinge pins include grooved end portions that cooperate with protrusions on the cover to snap the keypad cover toward its open and closed positions.
