Bundled flexible circuit board based flat cable with water resistant section

摘要

A flat cable includes an enclosure sleeve that encloses a selected section of a cluster section of a flexible substrate. The enclosure sleeve has opposite ends respectively coupled to a first water resistant member and a second water resistant member. Each of the water resistant members includes a base forming a hollow channel and an insertion end extending from the base. The insertion end is fit to an inside wall or an outside wall of an end of the enclosure sleeve. The first water resistant member, the second water resistant member, and the enclosure sleeve are combined together to form a water resistant section arranged at a selected section of the flexible substrate. When the flexible substrate is subjected to a stretching force in an extension direction of the flexible substrate or a torque applied in a rotation direction thereof, the flexible substrate is allowed to undergo relative displacement with respect to the first water resistant member, the second water resistant member, and the enclosure sleeve.
