Snap fit antenna mounting, especially for mobile phone, has tongue protruding from communication unit casing engageable with snap fit hooks on antenna

摘要

A flexible tongue protrudes from the communication unit casing (1) to a position inside the opening (3) in the casing wall (2) for receiving the antenna housing, and when this housing is placed inside the opening, snap-fit hooks come into contact with the tongue and bend it away from a resting position. Once the antenna has been fitted into position, the hooks form a snap-fit connection with engagement sections on the casing, causing the distance between these sections to increase and allow the tongue to be bent into its resting position between the two hooks, so that the latter are prevented from being detached from the engagement sections.
