Electronic device
Provided is an electronic device capable of preventing stress from being generated in each of joining portions of electronic circuit components joined to a printed circuit board, thereby preventing breakage in each of the joining portions. The electronic device includes a printed circuit board (1), and a housing having the printed circuit board (1) received therein. A rubber packing (4), which is interposed between a case main body (2) and a cover (3), is elastically compressed due to a fastening force of case-and-cover fastening screws (31) so that a packing main body (4a) hermetically seals an inside of the housing. Packing projecting portions (45) of the rubber packing (4) press circuit-board protruding portions (15), to thereby hold the printed circuit board (1) inside the housing.
Gasket for an electronic device
An electronic device having an enclosure and a cover is disclosed. The cover may be secured with the enclosure by a sealing element, or gasket. In response to using the sealing element to secure the cover with the enclosure, the sealing element may elastically deform. The elastic deformation may cause portions of the sealing element to extend into undercut regions of the cover and of the enclosure to form a first locking feature and a second locking feature, respectively. The first locking feature and the second locking feature may combine to provide a retaining force that retains the cover with the enclosure. Also, the first locking feature and the second locking feature may also provide a counterforce to a force applied to the electronic device (for example, dropping the electronic device) that prevents the cover from becoming unsecured from the enclosure.
Digital jukebox device with improved user interfaces, and associated methods
Certain exemplary embodiments relate to entertainment systems and, more particularly, to systems that incorporate digital downloading jukebox features and improved user interfaces. For instance, a smart search may be provided, e.g., where search results vary based on the popularity of songs within the venue, in dependence on songs being promoted, etc. As another example, a tile-based approach to organizing groupings of songs is provided. Groupings may involve self-populating collections of songs that combine centrally-promoted songs, songs in a given genre that are popular across an audiovisual distribution network, and songs that are locally popular and match up with the given genre (e.g., because of shared attributes such as same or similar genre, artist, etc.). Different tile visual presentations also are contemplated, as are different physical jukebox designs. In certain example embodiments, a sealed core unit with the “brains” of the jukebox is insertable into a docking station.

Waterproof device
A waterproof device including a casing structure, a cover structure, a first engaging plate, a second engaging plate, a first elastic member, and a second elastic member is provided. The casing structure, on which the cover structure is disposed, includes a bottom plate, a first side plate, a second side plate, a third side plate, and a fourth side plate. The first engaging plate is disposed adjacent to the first side plate, and the first elastic member is connected therebetween. The second engaging plate is disposed adjacent to the second side plate, and the second elastic member is connected therebetween. The first engaging plate can reciprocate between a first positioning position and a first disengagement position relative to the first side plate, and the second engaging plate can reciprocate between a second positioning position and a second disengagement position relative to the second side plate.
HERMETIC SEALING LID MEMBER, METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING HERMETIC SEALING LID MEMBER, AND ELECTRONIC COMPONENT HOUSING PACKAGE
This hermetic sealing lid member (10) is made of a clad material (20) including a silver brazing layer (21) that contains Ag and Cu and a first Fe layer (22) bonded onto the silver brazing layer and made of Fe or an Fe alloy. The hermetic sealing lid member is formed in a box shape including a recess portion (13) by bending the clad material.
Water guiding assembly and photovoltaic module
A water guiding assembly configured to drain water or discharge other liquid or solid substances for a photovoltaic assembly is provided. The water guiding assembly includes a water guider and a mounting component. The water guider includes a water guiding portion, the water guiding portion has a fitting portion configured to abut against a frame of the photovoltaic assembly, to provide a gap between the water guiding portion and the frame to form a guiding channel. The mounting component includes a fixing portion and a connecting portion, an end of the connecting portion is detachably connected to the water guider, and another end of the connecting portion is connected to the fixing portion to form a clamping opening with the water guider and the fixing portion, which is configured to clamp the frame. The connecting portion is provided with a discharge channel butted with the guiding channel.
CIRCUIT MODULE
A circuit module 2 comprises: a wiring structure 4; at least one electronic component 6a, 6b arranged on the upper surface of the wiring structure 4; an insulating resin layer 8 which is provided on the upper surface of the wiring structure 4 and in which at least one electronic component 6a, 6b is embedded; and a metal layer 10 provided on the upper surface of the insulating resin layer 8. The surface roughness of the portion S1 directly above each electronic component on the upper surface of the insulating resin layer 8 is expressed as R1. The surface roughness of the portion S2 other than the portion directly above all the electronic components on the upper surface of the insulating resin layer 8 is expressed as R2. At least one R1 satisfies the condition: R1>R2.
Sealed Bulkhead Electrical Feed-Through Positioning Control
An electrical feed-through, such as a PCB connector, involves at least one positioning protrusion protruding from a main body, and may further include multiple positioning protrusions protruding in respective directions from the main body. A data storage device employing such a feed-through comprises an enclosure base with which the feed-through is coupled, where the base comprises an annular recessed surface surrounding an aperture that is encompassed by the feed-through and is at a first level, and at least one recessed positioning surface at a higher level than the first level and extending in a direction away from the annular recessed surface. The positioning protrusion of the electrical feed-through physically mates with the recessed positioning surface of the base, such that the position of the feed-through is vertically constrained by the recessed positioning surface.
PLUGIN-POD FOR ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT
A ruggedized engine control module (ECU) system includes a plugin-pod, a connector configured to connect the plugin-pod to a connector of an ECU, and signal processing circuitry. The ruggedized ECU system further includes a ruggedized enclosure for the connector and the signal processing circuitry. The ruggedized enclosure is configured to mount the plugin-pod to the ECU. The connection circuit includes signal processing circuitry configured to receive signals from at least one of the connectors, process the signals, and output the processed signals. The ruggedized ECU is configured to dissipate heat from the signal processing circuitry.
