ABSTRACT:
A telephone unit has a housing with a stand pivot mount on a bottom side and with an interaction surface at a top side. A single piece stand is provided with a first end connected to the housing via the pivot mount to allow pivoting relative to the housing about the pivot mount through a range of angular positions. The stand also has a second end with surface engagement areas for engagement with a support surface. A latch arrangement is provided for setting the stand in an angular position relative to the housing to set an angular position of the interaction surface relative to the support surface. The latch arrangement is provided as a resilient engagement member at the stand with an engagement surface and a fixing surface at the housing. The resilient engagement member has an engagement surface normal position and is flexible to move the engagement surface out of the normal position. The resilient engagement surface engages the fixing surface in the normal position to set the stand at an angular position relative to the housing and is movable to adjust the angular position of the stand relative to the housing. The fixing surface and the engagement surface may be directional allowing the stand to pivot in one direction of movement relative to the housing with less flexing of the resilient engagement member than movement of the stand in an opposite direction. A finger catch release may be provided for flexing the resilient engagement member to move the engagement surface out of the normal position to move the stand relative to the housing in the opposite direction. The housing may have a first wall mount and the stand may have a second wall mount. The stand may be pivoted into a wall mount position to provide a two point engagement wall mount.
