ABSTRACT:
A door for an electronic device, wherein enclosure includes an internal cavity and an aperture for providing access to the internal cavity. The door includes a planar element for opening and closing an aperture of the enclosure. The door is rotatably attached to the enclosure to enable outward rotation of the planar element away from the internal cavity to a first position wherein the aperture is closed by the planar element and to enable inward rotation of the planar element toward the internal cavity to a second position wherein the aperture is opened. The planar element further includes an edge which contacts an edge of the aperture to stop the outward rotation when the planar element is at the first position. In addition, the door includes a V-shaped spring element for biasing the planar element to urge the planar element to provide the outward rotation. Furthermore, the door includes a push catcher for releasably holding the planar element in the second position.
