ABSTRACT:
A support assembly for supporting two poppel-type actuation switches at a housing, such as a radiotelephone handset housing. The actuation switches are positioned beneath a support body of the support assembly and maintained in a desired orientation relative to such support body by pawl arms which extend beneath the support body. Post members extend beneath the support body to abut against membranes of the respective actuation switches. The support body is affixed to the housing by way of retaining arms positioned to extend beneath the support body midway along the length thereof while permitting limited pivotal movement about rocker arms positioned at sides of the support body responsive to twisting moments applied to the support body. The twisting moments applied to the support body are transmitted to the poppel-type switches by way of the post members form the actuation forces to actuate the poppel-type switches supported thereat.
