Electronic module with easily operated latch mechanism

Claim 2

An electronic module, comprising: an elongated housing having a front portion and a rear portion, with a pair of spaced guide members integrated with a peripheral portion of the rear portion; a latch mechanism assembled to the housing, said latch mechanism including a slider member disposed between and supported by the pair of guide members, a bail member pivotally engaging with the rear portion of the housing and further linking with the slider member to move the slider member; wherein a bar is formed on an inward surface of each guide member and inserted into a groove defined in corresponding lateral side of the slider member; wherein a slider passage is defined in each guide member and proximate to the bar, wherein a through hole is defined in the slider and aligns with the slider passage; wherein the bail member is configured to doorframe-shaped, including a doorhead connecting with two doorjambs; wherein a positioning hole is defined in a middle section of each doorjamb, wherein a bolt is inserted through the positioning hole of the doorjamb, the through hole of the slider member and slider passage of the guide member; and wherein a mounting hole is defined in a lower portion of each doorjamb and linked to a cylinder member formed on a side wall of the rear portion of the housing.

Claim 3

The electronic module as recited in claim 1 , wherein a bottom surface of the slider member does not contact the housing.

Claim 4

The electronic module as recited in claim 2 , wherein a channel is defined in the rear portion of the housing and disposed between the pair of guide members.

Claim 5

The electronic module as recited in claim 3 , wherein the slider member is suspended in the channel.

Claim 6

The electronic as recited in claim 1 , wherein a handle member is formed on the doorhead of the bail member.

Claim 7

A cable connector assembly comprising: a casing enclosing a mating port therein and opposite upper and lower faces thereon; a slider intimately associated with the housing and linearly moveable relative thereto in a front-to-back direction; a U-shaped bail member including a horizontal doorhead around said upper face and a pair of doorjambs at two opposite ends of said doorhead under a condition that the doorjambs are respectively pivotally mounted to two sides of the housing with a lower end of each of said doorjambs fixed to the slider around the lower face; a unitary pull member defining a header portion, at a front portion, having a raised engaging part under a condition that a passage is formed between the engaging pail and a remainder portion of said header portion while both two opposite ends of the engaging part are unitarily formed with the remainder portion of the header portion; wherein the doorhead is received in said passage via one of said door jambs extending through said passage first, so that rearward pulling the pull member results in forward movement of the slider; wherein said bail member is further provided with a handle member having a portion cooperating with the door head to sandwich the engaging part therebetween; wherein said handle member is unitarily formed with the doorhead while with a slit portion to allow said engaging part to pass therethrough; and wherein said handle is further equipped with a cutout portion communicatively located beside the slit portion and dimensioned to comply with the engaging part so as to retain said engaging part therein.

Claim 8

A cable connector assembly comprising: a casing enclosing a mating port therein and opposite upper and lower faces thereon; a slider intimately associated with the housing and linearly moveable relative thereto in a front-to-back direction; a U-shaped bail member including a horizontal doorhead around said upper face and a pair of doorjambs at two opposite ends of said doorhead under a condition that the doorjambs are respectively pivotally mounted to two sides of the housing with a lower end of each of said doorjambs fixed to the slider around the lower face; a unitary pull member defining a header portion, at a front portion, having a raised engaging part under a condition that a passage is formed between the engaging pail and a remainder portion of said header portion while both two opposite ends of the engaging part are unitarily formed with the remainder portion of the header portion; wherein the doorhead is received in said passage via one of said door jambs extending through said passage first, so that rearward pulling the pull member results in forward movement of the slider; wherein said bail member is further provided with a handle member having a portion cooperating with the door head to sandwich the engaging part therebetween; wherein said handle member is unitarily formed with the doorhead while with a slit portion to allow said engaging part to pass therethrough; and wherein said handle is further equipped with a cutout portion communicatively located beside the slit portion and dimensioned to comply with the engaging part so as to retain said engaging part therein.
