Abstract: An enclosure is formed by coupling an outer cover to a back enclosure piece. The enclosure defines an interior volume for receiving components of an electronic device. The back enclosure piece is formed from a metal frame component and a non-metal outer cover. A metal layer overlaps the metal frame component and the outer cover within the interior volume. The metal layer has a thickness that provides support and shatter resistance to the non-metal outer cover. The metal layer can form an inductor of a wireless power transfer circuit.

Abstract: Under compression by molds (31a, 31b), a wire (25), a covered area (27), and a crimping portion (5) are compressed and their cross-sectional areas decrease. Here, A1 is the cross-sectional area of the wire (25) after compression. That is, A1 is the sum of the cross-sectional area of the each strand after compression. Also, 131 is the cross-sectional area of the covered area (27) after compression. In the present invention, the compression rate for the wire (25) is set between 50% and 80%. Also, the compression rate for the covered area (27) is set between 40% and 90%. The amount of compression by the molds (31a, 31b) is set so that the compression rates are within these ranges. In the present invention, the compression rate is calculated by: (cross-sectional area after compression)/(cross-sectional area before compression). That is, 80% compression rate means that the cross-sectional area has decreased by 20% due to compression. That is, the relationships of 80%?(A1/A0)?50% and 90%?(B1/B0)?40% are satisfied.
