Patent ID: 6955379

Claim:
A latching arrangement for latching a first housing member to a second housing member, comprising: a T-shaped latching member extending approximately perpendicular to a plane of the first housing member, the T-shaped latching member defining a first and a second void adjacent each side thereof beneath a top of the T-shape; a first L-shaped latch rib extending approximately perpendicular to a plane of the second housing member, and then turning near an end thereof to define the L-shape; a second L-shaped latch rib extending approximately perpendicular to the plane of the second housing member, and then turning near an end thereof to define the L-shape; the first and second L-shaped latch ribs situated adjacent each other with their respective ends pointing toward each other, and each having a tapered surface on an edge thereof with the taper narrowing as the L-shape gets farther from the second housing member; and wherein, the latching arrangement latches by the first and second L-shaped latch ribs twisting as their respective tapered surfaces slide over the T-shaped latching member until the ends of the L-shaped latch ribs slide past the top of the T-shaped latching member and engage the first and second voids adjacent the T-shaped latching member.
