Problems solved by technology

However, pressing the housing to the base plate is limited by the ability of the screws
and the resulting compressive force between parts may not be sufficient to prevent leaks or withstand the required spray tests
[0010] One solution to this leak path involves using applied silicone, but this adds an additional step after assembly and makes disassembly and reassembly (if required) more expensive and time consuming

Embodiment Construction

[0033] Figure 1A to Figure 14 An electronic component module 10 according to various embodiments of the present invention is shown. Module 10 performs control functions for a motor vehicle or other vehicles or equipment for which the module may perform various communication functions with other components of the vehicle.

[0034] Referring to FIG. 1 , module 10 includes electrical connector 12 , housing 14 and substrate 16 . Module 10 also includes a plurality of electronic components 15 disposed and retained within housing 14 . In one approach, a printed circuit board (“PCB”) 17 is attached to connector 12 and mounted to substrate 16 between substrate 16 and housing 14 . Electronic components may also include additional circuit boards, wires, computer readable storage media, processors, computing devices, and the like. The components share in common one or more inputs and outputs that communicate with other modules and / or controllers of the vehicle or devices with which m...

Abstract

An electronics module includes a housing, a connector, and a baseplate. The housing and connector are attached to each other and mounted to the baseplate. The housing includes a protrusion that is received between an inner flange and an outer flange of the connector. The housing and connector combine to define a sealing plane that extends to co-planar bottom surfaces of the housing and connector.The housing and connector, when assembled, define a water intrusion path between an outer protrusion of the housing and the outer flange of the connector. The water intrusion path includes a pluralityof chicanes that reduces the pressure of water that enters the path. The bottom surface of the housing defines a recessed channel to receive water.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to mechanical enclosures, and more particularly to enclosures for electrical modules and connectors used in motor vehicles. Background technique [0002] Electrical connections are used extensively in motor vehicles. Motor vehicles include various electrical components that manage the control and operation of numerous vehicle systems. For example, anti-lock braking system, electronic stability control, adaptive cruise control, blind spot monitoring, lane departure warning system, vehicle navigation system, entertainment system, automatic transmission system, vehicle monitoring system, etc. Various components that work in a manner. [0003] The various electronic components may be integrated into a larger overall module comprising more than one system and / or they may be separate modular components. In any event, an electrical module is typically connected to a power source and a control unit or controller that sends data...
