ABSTRACT:
A write/protect tab assembly including a substantially planar jacket base and a write/protect tab slidably mounted in a tab pocket formed in the jacket base, such that the tab is encaptured by the jacket base. The tab is alternatively encaptured by: a latch formed at the tab pocket for receiving the tab; shelf-like projections formed on the tab pocket for receiving corresponding elongated recesses formed on the sides of the tab; a cap attached to the tab with the tab pocket being disposed between the tab and the cap; or guides formed adjacent the tab pocket for receiving in sliding relation the sides of the tab. The present invention also includes a method of encapturing the tabs in the jacket base before the cover is positioned on the jacket base. The encapturing step alternatively includes: forming a latch at the tab pocket for receiving the tab; forming shelf-like projections on the tab pocket for receiving corresponding recesses formed in the tab; attaching a cap to the tab via snapping, press fitting, ultrasonically welding, swedging, or gluing; or forming guides on the tab pocket for receiving the sides of the tab.
