This is directed to an electronic device enclosure. The enclosure includes an outer periphery member forming an outer surface of a device, and to which an internal platform is connected. Electronic device components can be assembled to one or both surfaces of the internal platform. The enclosure can include front and back cover assemblies assembled to the opposite surfaces of the outer periphery member to retain electronic device components. One or both of the cover assemblies can include a window through which display circuitry can provide content to a user of the device.

A housing for an electronic device is disclosed. The housing includes housing components and a connector. The connector can be positioned between adjacent edges of two housing components. The connector can rotate from a first position to a second position to form a sealed joint between two adjacent housing components. The sealed joint can prevent moisture and debris from entering the housing of the electronic device.

A uniform thickness flex circuit is taught that uses more than one dielectric layer. A first dielectric layer is more flexible and capable of reliably bending at a radius of curvature at which a second dielectric layer cannot be reliably bent. The second dielectric layer has at least one more desirable electrical characteristic than the first dielectric area, for example leakage. Use of the uniform thickness flex circuit to protect sensitive material in an electronic enclosure is also described.

A meter case used with a utility meter is disclosed. The meter shell includes a plurality of snap fit joints assembled on the meter case arranged to engage a module cover to mount the module cover to the meter shell. The module cover further includes wire housing formed along an inner periphery of the module cover that houses a wire having a first end and a second end therein. A metal shield placed behind the meter shell is electrically coupled to a first connector. A terminal electrically connected to the metal shield is arranged to discharge current to ground. An electrical contact electrically coupled to the second end of the wire is arranged to engage the first connector to establish an electrical connection to the metal shield for the discharge to ground of electrostatic currents sensed by wire.

A terminal apparatus includes: a case configured to be selectively engaged with a bracket installed on a wall; and a locker unit configured to move with respect to the bracket to prevent the case from coming out of the engagement or to allow the case to come out of the engagement. The locker unit includes a first locker configured to move in a first direction by an external force applied by a user, and a second locker configured to move in a second direction different from the first direction by the movement of the first locker.

The disclosure relates to a housing of an electrical device for converting electrical power, including a main body and a cover. The cover closes the main body to define a self-contained interior space, wherein electrical and electronic components of the electrical device are arranged in the interior space of the housing. The cover is connected to the main body via a detchable securing structure, which may be arranged in the geometrical center of the cover. An electrical device has a housing of this type.

A tamper sensor assembly that includes a substrate with a protective bulk section including tamper circuitry and a hardware section configured to receive hardware circuitry and extending from the protective bulk section; the hardware circuitry electrically connected to the tamper circuitry to alter operation of the hardware circuitry responsive to modification of the tamper circuitry. The substrate additionally includes an attachment section extending from the hardware section. The tamper sensor assembly also includes a first fold in the substrate to position a first portion of the hardware section to extend along the protective bulk section, and a second fold in the substrate to position a second portion of the hardware section to extend along the first portion of the hardware section.

An automation technology field device, comprising a radio module, wherein the radio module is configured such that it forms at least one first radio channel and one second radio channel, wherein the first radio channel is configured for a reading access and the second radio channel for a writing access to the field device, characterized in that the second radio channel is deactivated in a basic state of the field device and the field device has a switching element at least partially realized as hardware, wherein the switching element is configured such that the second radio channel can be activated.

The electrical system comprises a cover (206) for closing the compartment (204) defined in a housing (202). The electrical system further comprises a removable element (214) configured to be mounted proximate to the housing (202), and a mobile hook (208) attached to one amongst the cover (206) and the housing (202), and configured to take an engaged position with the other amongst the cover (206) and the housing (202) and a disengaged position from the other from the cover (206) and the housing (202), wherein the removable element (214), when mounted proximate to the housing (202), is configured to cooperate with the mobile hook (208) to prevent the cover (206) from being separated from the housing (202), thereby preventing an opening of the compartment (204).

Systems and methods for authorizing or preventing access to a traffic controller cabinet are described. A first input may be received at a traffic controller cabinet. The first input may be indicative of an identity of an individual attempting to access the traffic controller cabinet. If the individual is determined not to be authorized to access the traffic controller cabinet, a blocking mechanism may be activated to prevent the individual from making any modification to one or more components of the traffic controller cabinet such as a software component.
