  • Patent number: 5362934
    Abstract: The keytop of a push-button switch includes a keytop portion situated on the top of a resin film, and a retaining portion situated on the underside of the resin film. The keytop portion and retaining portion are formed into a unitary body by a resin-molding process in which resin is passed through a hole provided in the resin film such that the resin film is sandwiched between the keytop portion and the retaining portion. In another embodiment, the retaining portion is loop-shaped and is formed into a unitary body with the keytop portion by a resin-molding process in which the resin passes through a plurality of holes provided in the resin film in a pattern corresponding to the loop-shaped circumference of the retaining portion. The resin film is sandwiched in a water-tight state between the keytop portion and the loop-shaped retaining portion.

  • Patent number: 5071611
    Abstract: A molded resin casing of an electronic part equipped with a flat cable and internally accommodating a board on which are formed electric conductor patterns slidingly contacted by contacts of a slider of the electronic part. A flexible board having various electric conductor patterns formed on a synthetic resin film is used as the board, the flexible board is formed integral with a flat cable including a synthetic resin film on which are formed electric conductor patterns electrically connected to the aforementioned various electric conductor patterns, and when the molded resin casing is molded by injecting a molten synthetic resin, the flexible board is inserted in such a manner that the electric conductor patterns are exposed within the casing, thereby integrating the flexible board and synthetic resin casing, with the flat cable extending outwardly from a side portion of the synthetic resin casing.
