ABSTRACT:
A housing for a mobile transceiver has integrally molded aligning and locking features to allow assembly without tools. As the metal support frame and attached printed circuit board enter the housing, short legs on the lower edge of the frame provide support and positioning for guiding the edges of the PC board into molded guide rails along the inner side walls of the housing and into molded locking clips on the inner front wall of the housing. The top rear of the housing is molded with a slight concave bow. The top and bottom rear edges of the housing have ramp portions for admitting the rear of the chassis. As the frame is forced home, a portion of the top rear of the frame pushes on the upper ramp, forcing the top of the housing to yield. Tabs on the bottom rear of the chassis ride up the lower housing ramp and are forced into slots in the housing bottom by the bias of the bowed housing top section. The outer end of each control knob has an indentation which mates with a molded support and alignment pin on the inner front wall of the housing. For both safety and aesthetic reasons, no locking members, controls or pushbuttons protrude beyond the outer contours of the housing.
