The present patent application includes a discussion of an integrated information card reader. The card reader is integrated into a radiotelephone (101). The card reader has a set of electrical contacts imbedded in a sliding plate (205). The sliding plate (205) is coupled to at least a portion of the other electronic apparatus contained in the radiotelephone (101) and enhances the rigidity of the radiotelephone (101). The card reader also includes a cover plate (213). The cover plate (213) and the sliding plate (205) form a cavity for retaining an information card (105). The cover plate (213) has cantilevered springs (309, 313) shaped from its body for forcing the information card (105) against the first set of contacts (403) when the information card (105) is loaded. Additionally, the cover plate (213) provides shielding at least a portion of the electronic apparatus from electromagnetic and radio frequency interference (EMI, RFI).

A fastener for fastening at least two tandemly-positioned surfaces, such as opposing surfaces of a housing assembly, theretogether. The fastener includes first and second hook members which are affixed in a defined relationship with top and bottom surfaces which are to be affixed theretogether. A clip formed of a multi-slotted plate member having slotted openings of dimensions corresponding to the dimensions of the hook members is fastened about the hook members to affix the hook members, and hence, the top and bottom surfaces theretogether. By affixing the clip to a substrate positioned between the top and bottom surfaces, the single clip may be utilized to fasten the substrate in position between the top and bottom surfaces.

The present patent application discusses a low profile information card chamber (107) used in a radiotelephone (101). The information card chamber accepts, retains and makes electrical contact to an information card (105). The information card chamber (107) makes electrical contact to the information card when the information card is properly inserted (105). The electrical contacts are located on the lower platform (213) of the information card chamber (107). Upon inserting the information card (105) into the information card chamber (107), the information card (105) is translated away from the electrical contacts (205). Prior to being fully inserted, the information card (105) is translated towards the electrical contacts (205). The two translational devices allow an information card (105) to be inserted into the information card chamber (107) without excessive wiping of the electrical contacts (205) by the information card (105).

An electromagnetic shield for absorbing electromagnetic energy generated by a circuit disposed upn a circuit board. The shield is comprised of a thermally conductive material to further provide heat-sink capabilites. Clip members releasably fastened to a flange projecting from a shielding surface formed by the shield are aligned with the ground plane of a circuit board. By maintaining the shield in a confronting relationship with the circuit board, the clip members are caused to maintain the shielding surface in electrical contact with the circuit.
