A method for sealing a plug pin in a housing. The housing has at least one cutout for sealing a region between plug pin and the housing. The method includes: providing the housing having the plug pin, the plug pin contacting the housing in two edge regions of the plug pin situated opposite one another and running along a direction of insertion, and forming in the edge regions a positive-fit connection with the housing; introducing casting compound into the at least one cutout in such a way that the casting compound reaches two oppositely situated sides of the plug pin, and the casting compound seals the region between the plug pin and the housing in fluid-tight fashion, and the casting compound does not come into contact with the two ends of the plug pin situated opposite one another along the direction of insertion; and curing of the casting compound.

A mat seal for an electrical connector includes a plurality of through-holes extending in a through-hole direction through the mat seal, a grid of a first material having a plurality of grid meshes, the grid is arranged with the through-holes extending through the grid meshes, a first material layer of a second material disposed on a first side of the grid, and a second material layer of a third material disposed on a second side of the grid opposite the first side. The first material of the grid has a greater compression modulus than the second material of the first material layer and the third material of the second material layer.

The invention relates to a sealed cable connector, including electric cables; an electrically insulating housing; electrical terminals, each of the electrical terminals having an end portion that is electrically connected to an end portion of a corresponding electric cable; the housing having a frame forming a cavity that extends in a z-direction, wherein connected end portions of the electric cables and the electrical terminals are provided within in the cavity of the frame; wherein the electrical terminals have a planar shape in the cavity and are oriented in the x-direction and the z-direction, in that the housing is molded onto the connected electric cables and the electrical terminals, and in that an electrically isolating material is injected into the cavity such that it seals the connected end portions of the electric cables and the electrical terminals. A manufacturing method and use of the sealed cable connector is also provided.

A waterproof structure includes a first seal portion covering around an electric wire to be inserted into a mounting hole of an object to which the electric wire is mounted, the electric wire having a conductor and an insulation covering the conductor, and the first seal portion being elastic and electrically insulative, a housing provided at an end portion of the electric wire, the housing covering the first seal portion, the housing being made of an insulating resin having higher rigidity than the first seal portion and a second seal portion covering around the electric wire, being provided contiguously with an end portion of the housing, and being elastic and electrically insulative.

A low cost sealed electrical connector that incorporates multiple connection elements and is sealed against harsh environment with redundant seals. The connector is a harsh environment sealed electrical assembly that is assembled in-situ with a variety of end connector fittings for sealing. The modularity of the sealed connector puck type assembly enables mass manufacturing by injection molding or other mass production methods. The connector can either be mounted to a bulkhead or used in an inline cable assembly using a variety of end fittings. Multiple connector types are encompassed including various sizes of electrical conductors or a combination connector. The connector sealing material is chemical and harsh environment resistant and may include but are not limited to epoxy, urethane and silicone. The invention reduces the number of penetrations in a harsh environment system application thus reducing size, weight, and cost.

A sealing structure is provided. The sealing structure is adapted to be disposed in an opening. The sealing structure includes a moveable block, a deformable bracket and an elastic member. When the moveable block is moved in a first direction, the deformable bracket pushes the elastic member, and the elastic member is deformed in a second direction and abuts the opening to seal the opening. The sealing structure is disposed in the opening to create a seal.

A method for overmolding at least one line (40) comprises the steps: receiving the at least one line (40) in an opening (14) of a sealing element (10), wherein the opening (34) of the sealing element (10) is substantially complementary in shape to a peripheral geometry of the at least one line (40); mounting the sealing element (10) on a mold (30); overmolding the at least one line (40) received in the sealing element in a region (42) that is adjacent to the sealing element (10) and delimited by the sealing element (10); and removing from the mold (30) the sealing element (10) and the at least one line (40) received therein and overmolded in a region.

Various aspects of the present disclosure are directed toward apparatuses, systems, and methods that include a connector port subassembly for a medical device. The connector port subassembly may include a connector bore arranged within the core subassembly including a proximal end and a distal end; one or more connector blocks arranged within the connector bore; and one or more seal rings moulded to an interior surface of the connector bore and arranged adjacent to the one or more connector blocks.

A wire harness to be wired in a vehicle includes an electric wire including a core wire constituted of strands and a sheath covering the core wire, a first terminal connected to one end portion of the electric wire located on one side of the electric wire, a first housing accommodating the first terminal, a second terminal connected to another end portion of the electric wire located on another side of the electric wire, a second housing accommodating the second terminal, a rubber stopper fitted onto the electric wire to close a gap between the electric wire and the first housing, a sealing portion that fills spaces between the strands at the one end portion to prevent water from entering the one side, and a corrosion protection portion covering an exposed portion of the core wire with the core wire connected to the second terminal at the another end portion.

This disclosure provides a waterproof electronic component having good waterproofness and a method for assembling the waterproof electronic component. A repeater as a waterproof electronic component includes (i) a substrate having first through holes, (ii) a socket fixed to the substrate, (iii) a housing containing the substrate, (iv) a pin held by the housing and having a first end connected to the substrate, and (v) a sealing section with which an area surrounded by the substrate and the housing is filled, the housing including a support including a supportive wall section capable of supporting a fixation portion of the socket and a seat section having a seating surface on which the substrate is placed, the substrate being placed on the seat section, the socket being oriented in such a manner that at least a portion of an outer surface of the fixation portion is close to and faces the supportive wall section.
