A method includes patterning one or more electrical layers on a substrate; shaping the patterned substrate into a 3-dimensional contour, wherein the contour including a significant change in gradient in or adjacent to one or more sensing areas of the electrical layer, and over-molding the shaped substrate. Degradation of a trace in the electrical layer at or adjacent to the one or more sensing areas during shaping and/or over-molding is substantially minimized based on the width of the trace, the thickness or number of layers of the trace, the bending radius of the trace, the material of the trace, and/or a primer over layer on the trace.

Method of moulding

A housing including heatsink and cam surfaces formed as a single unit and a chassis formed integrally with screw-less circuit board mounting apparatus and designed to fit within the housing so that power transistors mounted on a circuit board are urged into heat conducting contact with the heatsink by the cam surfaces when circuit boards are assembled on the chassis and the chassis is assembled in the housing.

Portable electronics apparatus housing and chassis

In a converter console for converting a portable radio to mobile operation, a sleeve for receiving the portable radio and improved mounting apparatus which positions the sleeve so the portable can be easily inserted and smoothly moves the sleeve into a loaded position in which the portable is connected for control by the console and for receiving power from the vehicle. The mounting apparatus holds the various contacts firmly together to prevent contact chatter. Also included are locking apparatus which prevent relative movement between the portable/sleeve and the housing to eliminate contact chatter under extreme vibration and reduce theft and improper use.
