  • Patent number: 11807160
    Abstract: A housing for a circuit includes a top wall that defines an aperture configured for receiving a fastener, and a bottom wall integrally formed with the top wall, positioned directly below the aperture in a height direction, and extended across the aperture with respect to the height direction. The circuit is mounted on a bottom side of the bottom wall. The top wall and the bottom wall define an interior of the housing, and cooperate to obstruct egress of debris from the interior of the housing to the circuit at the bottom side of the bottom wall.

  • Publication number: 20230052471
    Abstract: A button assembly for an exterior of a vehicle is disclosed. The button assembly is designed with improved water drainage properties. The button assembly includes a button switch and a bezel housing surrounding the button switch that is spaced apart from the button switch. A channel extends between the two components. In one example, the channel has a width of approximately 0.5 mm at one end. In another example, the channel is formed between two surfaces, and the outer surface is sloped relative to the button switch by approximately 15 degrees. Furthermore, in some examples, the channel has a height of approximately 3 mm. Each of these structural characteristics serves to significantly improve the assembly's overall drainage performance, which may be especially essential in colder climates.
