A carrier assembly for an electronic device, such as a radiotelephone. The carrier assembly is comprised of a frame and a support arm pivotally coupled thereto. The frame receives the electronic device to engage supportively the electronic device thereat, and latch members latch the electronic device to the frame. The support arm is pivotally coupled to the frame to permit positioning of the support arm to form either a clip or a table-support. When positioned to form a clip, the carrier assembly permits carriage of the electronic device by way of supportive engagement of the device to an external object, such as a belt or other article of clothing, of a user. When positioned at the table-support position, the support arm is operative to support the electronic device in a desired orientation upon a surface.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION The present invention, accordingly, provides a support structure for a portable electronic device.
The present invention further advantageously provides a telephonic carrier assembly for carrying a portable radiotelephone.
The present invention yet further advantageously provides a support apparatus for a portable radiotelephone having a support arm capable of pivotal movement between a clip position whereat the support arm is operative to function as a clip, and a table-support position whereat the support arm is operative to support the radiotelephone at an angle relative to a flat surface when positioned thereupon.
The present invention includes further advantages and features, the details of which will become evident by reading the detailed description of the preferred embodiments hereinbelow.
In accordance with the present invention, therefore, a support apparatus for a portable electronic device is disclosed.
The support apparatus comprises a frame for bracketing the electronic device thereto in supportive engagement thereagainst.
The frame formed thereby is affixed to the electronic device.
A support arm is pivotally coupled to the frame and capable of pivotal movement between a clip position and a table-support position.
A spring generates a bias force for maintaining the support arm normally in the clip position.
A stay maintains the support arm at the table-support position subsequent to pivotal movement of the support arm into the table-support position.
