Abstract:
A battery (105) includes a battery housing (340) having a latching mechanism (301) for attaching to a radiotelephone body (102). The latching mechanism (301) includes a button portion (405), a first torsion plate (403), a second torsion plate (404), and a catch (401). The battery housing (340) further includes an inner surface (400), a first rib (630), and a second rib (632). The first and second ribs (630, 632) extend upwardly from the inner surface (400) and attach respectively to the first and second torsion plates (403, 404), thereby supporting the latching mechanism (301) at a distance above the inner surface (400). The first and second torsion plates (403, 404), while providing a torsional twisting movement for detaching the battery (105) from the radiotelephone body (102), provide a strong deflection resistance for the latching mechanism (301).
