Abstract

An electronic device includes a housing having an opening, a connection terminal located in an opening in the housing, and a terminal cover including a first resin member having a first surface facing the connection terminal and a second surface located opposite to the first surface and a second resin member located on the second surface. At least a portion of the second resin member covers a depression located on an outer peripheral portion of the first surface of the first resin member.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. An electronic device comprising:
a housing having an opening;
a connection terminal located in the opening;
a terminal cover including a first resin member having a first surface facing the connection terminal and a second surface located opposite to the first surface, and a second resin member located on the second surface,
at least a portion of the second resin member covering a depression located on the first surface of the first resin member, wherein the second resin member is immovably fixed to the first resin member, and
the second resin member includes a stopper located on one end of the second resin member and configured to be locked in the housing, and an engagement protrusion located on the other end of the second resin member and configured to removably engage with the housing, and
in a direction in which the stopper and the engagement protrusion are aligned, a depressed amount of the depression located on the one end is larger than a depressed amount of a depression located on the other end.

2. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein
the depression includes a hollow dented inwardly from an outer edge of the first surface, and
the second resin member is located so as to cover the hollow.

3. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein
the depression includes a through-hole extending through the depression from the first surface to the second surface, and
the second resin member is located so as to fill the through-hole.

4. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein
the first surface includes a notch located so as to extend inwardly from an outer edge of the first surface, and
the second resin member is located so as to fill the notch.

5. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein
a surface of the first resin member opposite to a surface of the first resin member facing the connection terminal includes recessed and projecting features, and
the second resin member is integral with the first resin member so as to conform to the recessed and projecting features.

6. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the second resin member completely surrounds an outer peripheral edge of the first resin member.
