  • Patent number: 8300415
    Abstract: An electronic component for an integrated mechatronic system has at least two housing parts with at least one housing base, a housing cover, and an electrical connection between the components disposed in the interior of the housing and components located outside the housing. The electrical connection is fixed on the housing base. The housing cover is glued directly to the electrical connection and/or the housing base and, in this manner, enables lasting hermetically sealed protection for the sensitive electronic components.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8089773
    Abstract: A housing for an electronic control unit has at least two housing parts which include at least a housing base, a housing cover and an electronic connection between components which are disposed inside the housing and components which are outside the housing. The connection is fixed to the housing base. The electronic connection has open conductor track regions outside the housing cover. The regions are at least partially covered by one or more contact partners. In this case, the contact partners simultaneously have at least one direct contact-connection to one or more of the open conductor track regions.

  • Publication number: 20060174476
    Abstract: A method of making a windshield having first and second outer layers and a conductive bar, an electrical connector, and an intermediate layer positioned between the outer layers. The method includes the step of sinking the conductive bar and the electrical connector into a surface of the intermediate layer so as to be at least substantially flush with the surface. After sinking the conductive bar and the electrical connector into the surface, the first outer layer is engaged with the surface of the intermediate layer.
