ABSTRACT:
A combination charging unit and portable, hand-held transceiver which includes a latch mechanism operable to effect an electrical connection between the charging circuit in the charging unit and the rechargeable power supply in the transceiver automatically upon insertion of the transceiver into the charging unit. The latch mechanism causes insertion of plug connectors on the charging unit into mating connectors in the transceiver in a direction which is perpendicular to the axis of insertion of the transceiver into the charging unit. The latch mechanism prevents damage to the plug connectors by exerting a predetermined constant insertion force, independent of the force employed to seat the transceiver into the charging unit, in mating the plug connectors. The latch mechanism includes a release lever which provides a mechanical advantage to the operator during the initial portion of its release movement thus compensating for the gripping effect of the plugs with their mating connectors.
