Abstract
A selective call receiver (12) comprises a receiver circuit (78) and first and second contacts (80, 82) each having a first end (84, 86) electrically coupled to the receiver circuit (78) and each having a second end (92, 94). The selective call receiver (12) further comprises a first housing portion (33) for partially enclosing at least the receiver circuit (78) and a second housing portion (34) having a region (36) formed therein for receiving a battery (76) having first and second terminals (96, 98). The second housing portion (34) is capable of occupying first and second portions relative to the first housing portion (33) to provide access to the region (36) in the first position and to enclose the region (36) within the first housing portion (33) in the second position. The second housing portion (34) comprises deflection surfaces (42, 44) formed within the region (36) for deflecting the second ends (92, 94) of the first and second contacts (80, 82) to respectively engage the first and second terminals (96, 98) when the second housing portion (34) is moved to the second position.
