Robust wires-to-meter connection

摘要

A robust and waterproof wires-to-meter connection that provides an apparatus for conducting signals from several signal-carrying, bundled wires to a circuit member that is mounted within the interior of a sealed case, and in particular an assembly for conducting the signals while providing a robust, compact and water-resistant connection between the internal main circuit and the entry wires.

主权项

1. A method of conducting signals from several signal-carrying wires to a circuit member that is mounted within the interior of a sealed case, wherein the wires originate from outside the case, the method comprising the steps of:
connecting termini of the wires to a rigid portion of a conductor assembly, the conductor assembly comprising the rigid portion as well as a planar flexible portion that extends from the rigid portion to a remote end of the flexible portion that is connectable the circuit member; seating the rigid portion within an enclosable compartment within the case interior; extending from the compartment the flexible portion to enable connection of the remote end to the circuit member, thereby to enable the signals to be conducted from termini of the wires to the circuit member; and sealing the rigid portion within the compartment of the conductor assembly.
