Case and timepiece
11460813 · 2022-10-04 · ·

A case includes a main case body and an exterior member. The exterior member is welded to the main case body with laser light. The laser light is irradiated onto a welding part of the main case body and the exterior member and reflected at an irradiation surface, and a reflected-light receiving part is formed at a position where the reflected laser light is irradiated according to an incidence angle of the laser light to the irradiation surface. The exterior member includes a flange part which is disposed on an upper side of the main case body and which protrudes toward an inner side of the main case body. A lower surface of the flange part includes a module receiving surface which receives a module to be disposed inside the main case body, and the reflected-light receiving part is formed at a part of the module receiving surface.

Sealed radiation detector module systems and methods

Techniques are disclosed for systems and methods to provide a radiation detector module for a radiation detector. A radiation detector module includes a metallic and/or metalized enclosure, a radiation sensor disposed within the enclosure, readout electronics configured to provide radiation detection event signals corresponding to incident ionizing radiation in the radiation sensor, and a cap including an internal interface configured to couple to the readout electronics and an external interface configured to couple to a radiation detector, where the cap is configured to hermetically seal the radiation sensor within the enclosure. The cap may be implemented as an edge plated printed circuit board (PCB) including a slot configured to mate with a planar edge of an open surface of the enclosure, where the slot is soldered to the planar edge of the enclosure to hermetically seal the radiation sensor within the enclosure.

COMPONENT MOUNTING MEMBER, CASE AND TIMEPIECE

A component mounting member including a base member which is provided with an attachment hole and attached to a case, an attachment member which is inserted into the attachment hole of the base member so as to be attached to an inner surface of the base member located on an inner side of the case, and a terminal which is provided on the attachment member and exposed from the inner surface of the base member and an outer surface opposite to the inner surface.

WATCH WITH SEALED HOUSING AND SENSOR MODULE
20220100151 · 2022-03-31 ·

Wearable electronic devices, such as watches, can provide a seal member to form a fluid barrier between an inner chamber therein and outer chambers, as well as an external environment. Components within the sealed inner chamber can be protected from elements from the external environment (e.g., water ingress, etc.). The components outside of the inner chamber can include sensor modules and the like. Such components can be operatively connected to components within the inner chamber, for example, by a flex circuit that extends across the seal member. The component can interact with a watchband when coupled to a watch housing of the watch.
