Patient-actuated control device for controlling an audio-visual display and ancillary functions in a hospital room

摘要

A hand-held control device includes a housing including first and second housing pieces and a touch pad attached to an exterior surface of the first housing piece. The second housing piece defines a coupler well containing an electrical header. A speaker retention structure on an interior surface of the second housing piece includes an annular wall extending from an interior surface of the first housing piece and including a plurality of gaps at spaced intervals, and a resilient speaker retention finger extending from the interior surface of the first housing piece in each of the gaps. A cable connector assembly includes a coupler containing a socket, and a control cable electrically connected to the socket within the coupler. The coupler is sized and shaped to fill a coupler well in the housing so that the socket is connectable to the electrical header in the coupler well.
