Abstract
A detachable self-contained door cover assembly (105) includes a housing (101) with an integral socket (160), a hinge member (140) having a rotation track (153), and a door cover (120) having an integral hinge shaft (123). The hinge shaft (123) engages the rotation track (153) to rotatably couple the door cover (120) to the hinge member (140) about an axis of rotation extending through the hinge shaft (123) and the rotation track (153). The hinge member (140) is attached to the socket (160), and is detachable when a force exceeding a threshold value is applied to the hinge member (140), thereby disengaging the hinge member (140) from the socket (160) without substantial damage to the hinge member (140) or to the housing (101).
