Abstract:
1. A mobile communication device having a first side and an opposite second side, comprising: a lower housing; an upper housing comprising a first edge corresponding to the first side of the mobile communication device and a second edge corresponding to the second side of the mobile communication device; a bracket pivotably connected between the lower housing and the upper housing, wherein the bracket is configured to tilt the first edge of the upper housing away from the lower housing; and a biasing assembly comprising a slider board and a resilient member, one end of the slider board being pivotably connected to the upper housing adjacent to the second side of the device, the resilient member having a first end connected to the lower housing, and a second end connected to the other end of the slider board, to exert a force between the lower housing and the upper housing so that the bracket may rotate to tilt the first edge of the upper housing away from the lower housing, and to force the second edge of the upper housing into contact with an upper surface of the lower housing when the first edge of the upper housing is tilted away from the lower housing.
