From battery case lid top (303) point farthest, rib (301 and 302) has projection (304 and 305), and they and rib (301 and 302) are located at grade but exceeded the height of rib (301 and 302) slightly.Projection (304 and 305) is stretched out from rib (301 and 302) through the oblique angle face.This face is from vertical line angle 45 backward.The embodiment that replaces can change this angle or have and rib projection at an angle of 90.The part of facing the projection of breech lock end descends with 90 ° of angles with this breech lock (300) end.Also can be different for this angle of other embodiment.
Battery case lid breech lock (300) is surrounded by cutout regions (310), so that it is fixed to battery case lid by breech lock (300) in a preferred embodiment a little obliquely only by the controlled part of parts (311) thin, that extend along transverse axis.Parts (311) casting is gone into breech lock (300) and battery cover (350).
Notch portion (310) allows this breech lock (300) to rotate a limited amount around transverse axis together with connecting the parts (311) of breech lock (300) to battery cover (350).When the top portion (201) of breech lock (300) is forced on the back of box (referring to Fig. 2 reference number 201), the jut of breech lock (300) (304 and 305) is because the front portion of breech lock (300) is depressed and this breech lock (300) rotates on rib (301 and 302) head lamp brush guard pivot ground and rising slightly.Shown in the back, this rotation is convenient to battery cover (350) and is unloaded from radio telephone casing (200).
Fig. 2 shows the view of radio telephone casing breech lock of the present invention (230).This radio telephone casing back comprises a recess (210), and it forms a groove that rises on this radio telephone casing back.This recess (210) is provided with towards the top of radio telephone casing back.The front of this recess is 45 along (420 among Fig. 4-1) from vertical line.Just this edge when it slips into the position will with the inclination of battery cover breech lock (300) along contacting.This recess (210) is enough big so that hold the projection (304 and 305) of battery cover breech lock (300).
The tolerance of the size of this recess must be very little, because battery cover breech lock (300) movable space about can not having.Otherwise when moving this radiophone, it can produce the noise of click and provide low-quality radio telephone to the user.
The two both sides of battery cover (350) and radio telephone casing (200) have track fastening (220 and 320), so that the lid and the both sides of casing are interconnected, each casing and the connector (220 and 320) that covers be approach, in the elongated projection of the side on surface.Track fastening (220 and 320) on each casing and the lid (200 and 350) is arranged like this, promptly when casing and lid (200 and 350) when the two is touched together, the track fastening (320) on the battery cover (350) be in track fastening (200) on the radio telephone casing (200) below.This make casing and lid (200 and 350) only the axle that extends along the length by this radiophone of fore-and-aft direction move.
In operation, battery cover (350) is contacted with radio telephone casing (200), so that the engagement of siding track connector.Then, battery cover (350) slides along the back of this radio telephone casing (200), so that move to the top of radio telephone casing (403) top of battery cover (303).This moving shown in Fig. 4-1.
When the beveled edges (410 and 420) of projection (411) and recess (210) when contacting with each other, as shown in Fig. 4-2, the battery cover breech lock is forced on this lug tips and upwards rotates.This battery cover breech lock pivotally rotates around the contact point in recess forward position and the rib of this battery cover breech lock.This figure clearly illustrates that oblique angle face (410 and 420) provides the more level and smooth operation of latch system of the present invention.If these two each faces of face are 90 ° of angles, the user that battery then is installed must use bigger power so that the bolt lock mechanism engagement.
Fig. 4-3 shows the engagement of the breech lock of battery case lid and radio telephone casing.The projection of battery case lid breech lock is placed in the recess of radio telephone casing breech lock.The vertical component (430) of battery case lid breech lock back contacts with the vertical component (431) of radio telephone casing breech lock trailing edge.This makes that the dismounting battery case lid is difficult.Because the track contact only allows it to move with fore-and-aft direction.Those above-mentioned angles stop this moving.The top of the aft section of projection has 77 ° angle, so that suffer to reduce when falling so on the ground harm the distortion of this breech lock when radiophone.
In order to unload battery case lid from the radio telephone casing, the front portion of battery case lid breech lock is depressed.This makes this battery case lid breech lock pivotally rotate around the contact point of the leading edge of recess and the rib of this battery case lid breech lock.This rotary action makes projection rise from recess, and allows battery cover to slide back and be lifted subsequently disengaging radio telephone casing along track fastening.
At Fig. 5-1 another interchangeable embodiment of latch system of the present invention has been shown to the 5-3.This embodiment has used recess (504) and track fastening identical in the preferred embodiment.In addition, the battery case lid breech lock is of coupled connections with identical rotating manner and battery case lid.Yet at least two short elastic ribs (500) of the embodiment utilization of this replacement have replaced the rib that extends this battery cover breech lock length, and this elastic rib (500) has the thickness identical approx with the rib of preferred embodiment.For the sake of clarity, only show a rib (500) in the drawings.These ribs (500) obtain their elasticity from an oblique angle opening (501) of longitudinal extension by the major part of rib (500).
The leading edge (502) of the embodiment of this replacement by recess (504) forces rib (500) to be bent upwards work like that shown in Fig. 5-2.When the tip (503) of rib (500) when putting into recess, battery case lid is locked, as shown in Fig. 5-3.Because the raised position of recess (504) does not allow rib (500) to be elongated to its original position again.Therefore, rib (500) is coupled with downward pressure in the inside edge of recess (504), thereby keeps battery case lid to be in the appropriate location.
