Abstract: An electronic device having liquid-resistant modifications that prevent liquid ingress into an opening (or openings) in an enclosure of the electronic device is disclosed. For example, the electronic device may include a coating formed from a liquid-resistant material that is applied internally to the enclosure. The electronic device may further include a frame that carries a protective transparent layer designed to cover a display assembly. In order to secure the frame with the enclosure, the electronic device may include an adhesive assembly disposed over an outer perimeter of the coating. The adhesive assembly may include several adhesive parts initially separate from one another. However, with the adhesive parts between the frame and the enclosure, the adhesive parts can be compressed by the frame and the enclosure, causing the adhesive parts to expand and engage each other. As a result, the coating and the adhesive parts provide a seal against liquid.

Abstract: Design requirements can dictate that a portion of a flex assume a bent state during surface mounting and reflow steps. However, traditional assembly line manufacturing processes can be unsuccessful as residual forces generated by the bending can prevent the ends of the bent flex from being maintained in place during surface mounting and reflow operations. One solution is to manipulate paneling that hold batches of the flexes to reliably achieve a suitable bend in the flexes. In some embodiments, a flex can be surface mounted to a portion or the whole of an electric device during a reflow operation during which the bent state is maintained by paneling that is at least partially attached to a periphery of the flex. Another solution is to utilize vacuum or hot glue fixtures to maintain a bend in the flex during surface mounting and reflow operations.
Abstract translation: 设计要求可以指示在表面安装和回流步骤期间,弯曲部分的弯曲状态呈现弯曲状态。 然而,传统的装配线制造过程可能不成功,因为由弯曲产生的残余力可以防止弯曲挠曲件的端部在表面安装和回流操作期间保持在适当位置。 一种解决方案是操纵镶板,其将批量的柔性件可靠地实现弯曲中的合适的弯曲。 在一些实施例中,柔性件可以在回流操作期间表面安装到电气设备的一部分或全部,在此期间,弯曲状态通过至少部分地附接到柔性件的周边的镶板来保持。 另一个解决方案是在表面安装和回流操作期间利用真空或热胶装置来保持弯曲。
