An improved ECU for a motor vehicle comprises a housing that includes a top portion and a bottom portion each with an associated gasket. A printed circuit board (PCB) is enclosed between the housing portions. The gaskets provide seals between the housing, portions and respective sides of the PCB and apply balanced forces to each side to minimize strain on the PCB. One or both gaskets may be electromagnetic compliance gaskets.

Electronic device with sealed housing

A carrier includes first and second container portions that are assembled together to provide a structure the supports and retains a capacitor. The first container portion and the second container portion are assembled together in a configuration in which the edges of the first wall structures face corresponding ones of the edges of the second wall structures, and the edges of the first wall structures are overlapping with respect to the corresponding ones of the edges of the second wall structures when the carrier is viewed in side view.

Capacitor carrier assembly with housing having expansion features

A capacitor carrier assembly includes a carrier, a capacitor disposed in the carrier and electrically conductive connection terminals. The connection terminals support the carrier with respect to another electronic component or device such as a printed circuit board, retain individual carrier portions in an assembled configuration, and provide an electrical connection between the capacitor and the electronic component. Each connection terminal includes an elastic member that protrudes from a surface of the connection terminal and engages the carrier, and regions of serrations provided on opposed edges of the terminal that engage the carrier, and a flange that protrudes from the surface in a direction perpendicular to the first surface. An edge of the flange includes an insulation displacement contact (IDC) joint for connection to the capacitor leads.

Capacitor carrier assembly with connection terminals

A carrier is configured to house a capacitor that includes a casing, a first capacitor lead that protrudes from the casing and a second capacitor lead that protrudes from the casing. The carrier includes a first container portion and a second container portion. The first container portion and the second container portion have the same shape and dimensions, and when assembled together, define an interior space that receives and retains the capacitor therein.

Capacitor carrier assembly with two piece housing

A capacitor carrier assembly includes a carrier, a capacitor disposed in the carrier and electrically conductive connection terminals that support the carrier with respect to another electronic component or device such as a printed circuit board. Each connection terminal has a body portion that is electrically connected to one capacitor lead of the pair of capacitor leads at a connection location, and a device connection portion that protrudes from the carrier. Leads of the capacitor and the connection locations are encapsulated by wall structures of the carrier.

Capacitor carrier assembly with housing having encapsulation features

A lens assembly for a near range camera includes a lens stack disposed in a tubular lens housing. The lens stack includes several lenses in a stacked arrangement. An outermost lens of the lens stack is disposed in an open end of the lens housing, and a second lens of the lens stack abuts an inward facing surface of the outermost lens. A seal is that contacts, and forms a seal with, an inner surface of the lens housing, the first lens and the second lens.

Camera lens assembly

An electronic device includes a housing, a printed circuit board (PCB) disposed in the housing, and electronic components that are supported on the PCB. The housing is an assembly of a cover and a base. At least one of the cover and the base include a region in which at least a portion of an outer surface of the housing within the region, and a portion of housing material adjoining the portion of the outer surface, have material properties that are different than those in other regions. A method of manufacturing that provides the desired material properties is also described.

Housing for a camera and method of manufacture

A spacer and electrical connector assembly for printed circuit boards includes a first member to be placed between two of the printed circuit boards to provide a required spacing between the printed circuit boards. The assembly also includes at least one second member disposed adjacent to the first member, the second member extending along a length of the first member and at least partially bracketing an upper surface and a lower surface of the first member, thereby providing an electrical connection between the printed circuit boards. A plurality of contact portions that respectively receive the second member may be disposed on at least one of the upper and lower surfaces.

A combination table-miter saw including a base, an arm rotatably coupled to the base and moveable relative to the base between a first position and a second position, and a platform coupled to the arm and moveable relative to the arm between a first position and a second position. The combination table-miter saw also includes a safety device configured to allow the combination table-miter saw to function as a table saw when the arm is in the first position and to allow the combination table-miter saw to function as a miter saw when the platform is in the first position.

Combination table-miter saw safety system

A table saw fence includes a clamping member at both the front and rear of the fence to provide substantial clamping power and accuracy. The fence includes an interior cavity housing a linkage mechanism that engages the front and rear clamps through the actuation of a single handle. Furthermore, the fence includes an opening leading to the interior cavity, thereby permitting the blade, riving knife, blade guard, and any other blade accessories to extend within the interior cavity when the fence is used in a blade cover configuration.
