Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to fasteners, and, more particularly, to a fastener which fastens two or more tandemly- positioned surfaces theretogether, such as, without way of limitation, opposing surfaces of a housing assembly for an electronic device.
- Advancements in the field of radio electronics have permitted the introduction and commercialization of an ever-increasing array of radio communication apparatus.
- Advancements in electronic circuitry design have also permitted increased miniaturization of the electronic circuitry comprising such radio communication apparatus.
- an ever-increasing array of radio communication apparatus comprised of ever-smaller electronic circuitry has permitted such radio communication apparatus to be utilized more conveniently in an increased number of applications.
- a radio transceiver such as a radiotelephone utilized in a cellular, communication system, is one example of radio communication apparatus which has been miniaturized to be utilized conveniently in an increased number of applications. Additional efforts to miniaturize further the electronic circuitry of similar such radio transceivers, as well as other radio communication apparatus, are being made. Such further miniaturization of the radio transceivers will further increase the convenience of utilization of such apparatus, and will permit such apparatus to be utilized in further increased numbers of applications. Pursuant to such efforts to miniaturize further the electronic circuitry of such radio transceivers (as well as other radio communication apparatus), size minimization of the electronic circuitry is a critical design goal during design of such circuitry. Concomitant with the increased miniaturization of electronic circuitry is a corresponding reduction in the physical dimensions of the housings in which such electronic circuitry is housed as well as other mechanical structure associated therewith.
- housings of many such electronic devices are comprised of a thermoplastic material.
- the walls of such housings must be greater than minimal thicknesses to ensure the structural integrity of such walls, and the housings formed therefrom.
- Other housings and associated mechanical structures comprised of other materials suffer from similar, size-reduction limitations.
- Many conventional, housing constructions are comprised of a front housing portion and a rear housing portion.
- the electronic circuitry comprising the electronic device is disposed upon a circuit board (or several circuit boards) and the circuit board is mounted or otherwise affixed to the rear housing portion of the conventional, housing construction.
- the front housing portion is then placed over the circuit board and a fastening mechanism fastens the front and rear housing portions theretogether, thereby to enclose in supportive containment the circuit board within the housing construction.
- the fastening mechanism by which the front and rear housing portions of the housing construction are fastened theretogether may be comprised of any of many various designs. Most simply, threaded shaft members may be utilized to affix the housing portions theretogether.
- the fastening mechanism may be formed integral with the abutting edge surfaces of the sidewalls of the respective housing portions.
- Such structure is housed within the housing of the radiotelephone, and is operative to receive a card, substantially similar in dimensions to a conventional, credit card.
- the card contains information which, once received by the card reader assembly, may be utilized by the radiotelephone for any of various purposes. For instance, the information contained on such card could include an identification number to be utilized for billing purposes to bill a phone call made through the radiotelephone to a particular billing address. Because the card having the identification number can be removed from one radiotelephone, and placed in another, calls made from more than one radiotelephone may be billed to a single billing address.
- Such a card reader assembly incorporated to form a portion of a radiotelephone must be mounted within the housing assembly of the radiotelephone in a precise orientation.
- the housing assembly must be adapted to permit the card reader assembly to receive the card to obtain the desired information therefrom. That is to say, the card reader assembly must be accessible from the exterior of the housing assembly.
- the card reader assembly To position precisely the card reader assembly within the housing assembly, the card reader assembly must be fastened to the housing assembly to affix the card reader assembly in position thereby, and in the desired orientation so that the card reader may be accessed from the exterior of the housing assembly.
- the housing assembly comprised of a front portion and a rear portion, as noted above, must be fastened theretogether by the fastening mechanisms at locations along the abutting surfaces which for the interface between the two housing portions to ensure structural integrity of the housing assembly.
- Such fastening mechanisms which fasten the front and rear housing portions theretogether must therefore be positioned at spaced intervals along the interface between the two housing portions.
- the present invention accordingly, advantageously provides a fastener of minimal dimensions for fastening two tandemly- positioned surfaces theretogether.
- the present invention further advantageously provides a fastener for fastening a substrate between two tandemly-positioned surfaces.
- the present invention yet further advantageously provides a fastener which fastens two tandemly-positioned surfaces, and a substrate positioned therebetween, theretogether.
- the present invention provides further advantages and features, the details of which will become more evident by reading the detailed description of the preferred embodiment hereinbelow.
- a fastener for fastening a first surface and a tandemly-positioned second surface theretogether.
- the fastener comprises a first hook member positioned beneath the first surface in a fixed relation therewith and a second hook member positioned above the second surface in a fixed relation therewith.
- a dip capable of clasping engagement with both the first hook member and the second hook member is positioned about both the first hook member and the second hook member to fasten thereby the first surface and the tandemly-positioned second surface theretogether.

- FIG. 3 is a cut away, isometric view of a clip affixed to a substrate which forms another portion of the fastener of the preferred embodiment of the present invention
- FIG. 4 is a cut away, isometric view of the clip of FIG. 3, here positioned between front and rear housing portions of a housing assembly wherein the hook members of FIGs. 1 and 2 are formed on sidewalls of the front and rear housing portions, respectively;
- FIG. 4-1 is a cut away, isometric view, similar with that of FIG. 4, but of an alternate, preferred embodiment of the present invention;
- FIG. 5 is a cut away, isometric view, similar to that of FIG. 4, but illustrating the dip after attachment to the hook member formed on the sidewall of the front housing portion;
- FIG. 6 is a cut away, isometric view, similar to those of FIGs. 4-5, but illustrating the relationship between the hook members and the clip after attachment to both the hook member formed on the sidewall of the front housing portion and the hook member formed on the sidewall of the rear housing portion of the housing assembly to fasten thereby the front and rear housing portions thereat, and to fasten the substrate in position within the housing assembly formed thereby;
- FIG. 7 is cross-sectional view of FIG.6;
- FIG. 8 is an exploded view of a radiotelephone of the preferred embodiment of the present invention which includes the fastener shown in the preceding figures;
- FIG. 9 is an isometric view of a portion of the card reader assembly, shown in the exploded view of FIG. 8, which forms the substrate to which the clip of FIG. 3 is affixed in the preferred embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG. 10 is an isometric view of the radiotelephone shown in exploded form in FIG. 8.
- FIG. 1 a hook member, referred to generally by reference numeral 100, which forms a portion of the fastener of the preferred embodiment of the present invention, is shown.
- Hook member 100 is formed at a predetermined distance beneath surface 106, here a top, face surface of a top housing portion of a housing assembly. As illustrated, hook member 100 is formed upon an inner wall of a flange forming sidewall 112 of the front housing assembly portion.
- Hook member 100 in the preferred embodiment, is comprised of a resilient material and is formed of hook member portions 100-1, 100-2, and 100-3. Adjacent ones of the hook member portions 100-1- 3 are spaced apart by gaps 100-4 and 100-5 to be bifurcated thereby. Hook member 100 is thereby of a comb-like appearance. Hook member 100 alternately may be formed of a single, elongated hook member portion; such bifurcated construction is desirable, however, when hook member 100, surface 106, and sidewall 112 are formed of a thermoplastic material formed during a molding process. Such bifurcated construction prevents scaling of thermoplastic material of dissimilar depths, and is advantageously utilized when smoothness in appearance of the rear surface (not shown in the Figure) of sidewall 112 is of importance.
- Each hook member portion 100-1-3 includes an upwardly- extending, ramped, face surface, here designated by reference numerals 118-1, 118-2, and 118-3, respectively. Face surfaces 118-1-3 are coplanar in nature, and each face surface 118-1-3 extends to a back- angled, force-receiving surface, here designated by reference numerals 124-1, 124-2, and 124-3. Force receiving surfaces 124-1-3 also form a coplanar surface.
- FIG. 2 a second hook member, referred to generally by reference numeral 200, which forms another portion of the fastener of the preferred embodiment of the present invention, is shown.
- Hook member 200 is formed at a predetermined distance above surface 206, here a bottom, face surface of a rear housing portion of a housing assembly. As illustrated, hook member 200 is formed to extend beyond an inner wall of a flange forming sidewall 212 of the rear housing assembly portion. Hook member 200, surface 206 and sidewall 212 of the rear housing assembly portion are preferably integrally formed of a thermoplastic material during a molding process. In contrast to hook member 100 of FIG. 1, hook member 200 is not bifurcated in construction; however, hook member 200 may alternately be constructed to be in such bifurcated form. Analogous to portions 118- 1-3 of hook member 100 of FIG. 1, hook member 200 comprises ramped- face surface 218 which, here, however, is downwardly-extending.
- FIG. 3 is a cut away, isometric view of a clip, here designated generally by reference numeral 300, which forms another portion of the fastener of the preferred embodiment of the present invention.
- clip 300 is a multi-slotted plate member, here having a top-slotted portion 306 and bottom-slotted portion 312.
- Slotted opening 318 extends between front and rear face surfaces (rear face surface 324 is illustrated in the Figure) of top slotted portion 306.
- Slotted opening 330 extends between front and rear face surfaces (rear face surface 336 is illustrated in the Figure) of bottom slotted portion 312.
- Inner edge surface 326 of top slotted portion 306 defines one of the perimetal sides of slotted opening 318.
- inner edge surface 338 of bottom slotted portion 312 defines one of the perimetal sides of slotted opening 330.
- Clip 300 is affixed to substrate 344 to extend in a direction substantially perpendicular to a planar direction defined by a surface of the substrate.
- substrate 344 comprises a portion of a card reader assembly and is comprised of a metallic material.
- Clip 300 in the preferred embodiment is formed integral with substrate 344, and is also comprised of a metallic material.
- Clip 300 is permitted elastic deformation to allow flexing movement of portions of the clip. While in the preferred embodiment, top slotted portion 306 and bottom slotted portion 312 extend in parallel, but dissimilar planar directions, top and bottom slotted portions 306 and 312, respectively, may alternately be formed to extend in coplanar directions.
- FIG. 4 is a cut away, isometric view of clip 300 affixed to substrate 344 of FIG. 3 in which substrate 344 and the clip affixed thereto are together positioned between top, face surface 106 of the front housing assembly portion shown in FIG. 1 and bottom, face surface 206 of the rear housing assembly portion shown in FIG. 2.
- Hook member 100 is again shown to be formed to extend beyond an inner wall of the flange forming sidewall 112.
- hook member 200 is again shown to be formed to extend beyond an inner wall of a flange forming sidewall 212 of the rear housing assembly portion.
- hook members 100 and 200 are aligned with one another in a vertical arrangement.
- Linear translation of substrate 344 positions clip 300 affixed thereto to be also in an aligned relation with both hook member 100 and hook member 200.
- slotted opening 318 substantially correspond to the perimetal dimensions of hook member 100
- slotted opening 330 substantially correspond to the perimetal dimensions of hook member 200.
- FIG.4-1 illustrates an alternate embodiment of the present invention in which hook members 100 and 200 are offset from one another.
- Clip 300 is comprised of top and bottom slotted portions which are correspondingly offset from one another to permit alignment with respective ones of the hook members.
- FIG. 4-1 is identical with similarly-numbered structure described with respect to FIG. 4, and will not again be described in detail.
- the fastener of the preferred embodiment is operative to fasten the front and rear housing assembly portions theretogether.
- substrate 344 is operative to position clip 300 in an aligned arrangement between hook members 100 and 200.
- clip 300 could, of course, be alternately positioned in such an aligned relationship by other appropriate means.
- the fastener of the preferred embodiment is operative not only to fasten the front and rear housing assembly portions of the housing assembly theretogether, but, additionally, to fasten a substrate, here a plate member of a card reader assembly, in position within the housing assembly formed thereby.
- a substrate here a plate member of a card reader assembly
- clip 300 is first fastened to hook member 100, and, then, clip 300 is fastened to hook member 200 to fasten thereby surfaces 106 and 206 of the front and rear housing assembly portions, respectively, theretogether.
- clip 300 is translated vertically in the direction indicated by arrow 348 such that a front, face surface of top slotted portion 306 of clip 300 abuts against, and engages with, ramped-face surface portions 118-1-3 of hook member portions 100-1-3.
- abutting engagement between the face surfaces 124-1-3 of hook member 100 and the front, face surface of top slotted portion 306 of clip 300 causes bending forces to be exerted against clip 300. Exertion of such bending forces causes elastic deformation of the top slotted portion 306, resulting in flexing movement of the top slotted portion.
- the housing when the housing is comprised of a thermoplastic material, the housing also bends responsive to translation of clip 300 thereupon.
- clip 300 results in alignment of slotted opening 318 with ramped-face surface portion 118-1-3. Once aligned, the face surfaces 118-1-3 of hook member 100 no longer abut against a face surface of top slotted portion 306; rather, hook member 10 is positioned to extend through slotted opening 318. As bending forces are no longer exerted against top slotted portion 306, top slotted portion 306 returns to an elastically undeformed state, and clip 300 snaps into position about hook member 100 such that inner edge surface 326 seats against back-angled, force-receiving surface portions 124-1-3 of the hook member.
- the cut away, isometric view of FIG. 5 illustrates positioning of dip 300 after the just-described translation of the clip to position to-slotted portion 306 of the clip about hook member 100 to seat the inner edge surface 326 of top slotted portion 306 upon force-receiving surface portions 124-1-3 of the hook member.
- substrate 344 is affixed in a desired relation relative to top, face surface 106 of the front housing assembly portion of the housing assembly.
- clip 300 Once clip 300 has been suitably affixed to hook member 100 to seat against force-receiving surfaces 124-1-3 thereof, clip 300 together with surface 106 may be lowered into position to engage claspingly with hook member 200. (Alternately, surface 206 of the rear housing assembly portion may be translated to engage claspingly with clip 300.)
- bottom slotted portion 312 of clip 300 results in alignment of slotted opening 330 with ramped-face surface portion 218.
- face surface portion 218 of hook member 200 no longer abuts against a face surface of bottom-slotted portion 312; rather, hook member 200 is positioned to extend through slotted opening 330.
- bottom-slotted portion 312 returns to an elastically undeformed state, and clip 300 snaps into position about hook member 200 such that inner edge surface 338 seats against back-angled, force- receiving surface 224.
- FIG. 6 The cut away, isometric view of FIG. 6 illustrates the relationship between clip 300 and hook members 100 and 200 once clip 300 is positioned about both hook members.
- Block 350 shown in hatch, surrounding hook member 100, hook member 200, and clip 300 represen the fastener formed of the hook members 100 and 200 and clip 300.
- fastener 350 is utilized to fasten two tandemly-positioned surfaces, here surfaces 106 and 206 of front and rear housing assembly portion of a housing assembly, theretogether.
- the fastener is additionally operative to position a substrate, here substrate 344, which forms a portion of a card reader assembly fastened in position between top and bottom face surfaces 106 and 206.
- FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view taken along lines 7-7 of FIG. 6. The relationship between hook members 100 and 200 and dip 300 whidi together form fastener 350 is again illustrated.
