Abstract

A tilt mechanism is provided for a communication device enabling the communication device to be placed at a desired angular position during use. The tilt mechanism includes a biasing member that allows the user to consistently and easily set the angular position of the phone and without collapse or shifting of the communication device to another position. In the preferred embodiments, the biasing member is in the form of a leaf spring that biases the movement of a user-controlled component for setting the desired angular position.
