CA 2759925

An interconnect assembly (100) includes a spring member (200) integrally formed of a first portion (202) having two prongs (208) and a slot (210), the first portion being coupled to a second deflected portion (204) formed of a cantilevered beam (212) with interference fit tabs (214) extending from either side. A latch (400) includes hooks (406) and foot members (408). A housing (600), such as a battery pack housing, includes a side surface (606) having protrusion (602) and pockets (604) formed therein along with vertical side channels (610). The spring, latch and housing (200, 400, 600) are coupled such that the vertical channels (610) capture and guide the interference fit tabs (214) down the side of the housing (600) as the foot members (408) of the latch (400) are inserted into the pockets (604) of the housing (600). As the spring member (200) is pushed downward, the protrusion (602) of the housing (600) captures the slot (210), and the hooks (406) of the latch (400) capture the interference fit tabs (214) of the spring member thereby providing a locked latch-spring assembly (1000).

Ensemble d'interconnexion (100), comportant un élément ressort (200) formé d'un seul tenant avec une première partie (202) possédant deux broches (208) et une fente (210), la première partie étant associée à une deuxième partie déviée (204) formée d'une tige en porte-à-faux (212) des deux côtés de laquelle s'étendent des languettes à ajustement serré (214). Un cliquet (400) comporte des crochets (406) et des éléments pattes (408). Un boîtier (600), tel qu'un boîtier de bloc-batterie, comporte une surface latérale (606) possédant une protubérance (602) et dotée d'alvéoles (604) et de passages latéraux verticaux (610). L'élément ressort, le cliquet et le boîtier (200, 400, 600) sont associés de telle sorte que les passages verticaux (610) piègent et guident les languettes à ajustement serré (214) le long du côté du boîtier (600) alors que les éléments pattes (408) du cliquet (400) s'insèrent dans les alvéoles (604) du boîtier (600). L'élément ressort (200) étant comprimé vers le bas, la protubérance (602) du boîtier (600) se retrouve piégée dans la fente (210), et les crochets (406) du cliquet (400) piègent les languettes à ajustement serré (214) de l'élément ressort en produisant ainsi un ensemble cliquet-ressort verrouillé (1000).
