Abstract

The invention relates to an enclosure assembly for an electronic controller having an over-molded part to protect electronic components. An enclosure assembly for enclosing an electronic controller. The enclosure assembly comprises a housing having a plurality of cavities formed therein for receiving electrical components of the electrical controller. The enclosure assembly further includes an over-molded part formed from an elastic material that lines at least a portion of each cavity. The over-molded part reduces the effect of deceleration forces on the electrical component that is received in the cavity thereby protecting it from damage. The over-molded part includes a retention feature that locates the over-molded part within the cavity and secures it to the enclosure assembly. An interference fit is provided between the over-molded part and the electrical component received in the cavity.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the benefit of US Provisional Application Serial No. 62 / 296,634, filed February 18, 2016, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0003] The present invention relates generally to enclosure assemblies for electronic controls, and more particularly, to enclosure assemblies having over-molded parts for supplying sensitive components received in the enclosure assemblies. Electronic components provide enhanced protection. Background technique [0004] This section provides background information related to the present disclosure which is not necessarily prior art. [0005] The continuous improvement of technology allows adding more and more features to modern vehicles, especially electronic components and electronic controls. Electronic controllers receive, process and transmit various electrical data. These electronic controllers and their associated...
