Patent ID: 8502097

Claim:
A push-button for a device, the push-button comprising: a) a first anchor portion for coupling to the device at a first location, the first anchor portion configured for slideably engaging a protrusion extending from the device in a first direction; b) a second anchor portion for coupling to the device at a second location; c) a resiliently stretchable bridge portion coupled to the first anchor portion and the second anchor portion, the bridge portion extending along a second direction between the first anchor portion and the second anchor portion, the second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction; and d) an actuating portion mounted on the bridge portion and accessible to a user for movement in an actuation direction between a rest position and an engaged position, the actuating portion biased toward the rest position by a tension induced within the resiliently stretchable bridge portion, wherein the first anchor portion and the second anchor portion are coupled to the device so as to resist against motion along the second direction, thereby providing said tension, the actuating portion configured, when moved to the engaged position, for actuating a switch coupled to the device.
