Patent number: 10785881Abstract: An apparatus includes a housing, a circuit board, a sealant and a baseplate. The housing may have a shelf and a flange along an open side. The circuit board may be (i) disposed on the shelf of the housing and inside the flange of the housing and (ii) secured to the housing. The sealant may be dispensed (i) through the open side of the housing and (ii) along a gap between the flange and the circuit board. The baseplate may be compressed to the housing thereby causing the sealant to flow between (i) the baseplate and the circuit board and (ii) the baseplate and the flange.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 2019Date of Patent: September 22, 2020Assignee: VEONEER US INC.Inventors: Demetri Stilianos, Jacob Jay Yoder, Luis Fernando Sanchez, Floyd J. Malecke

Patent number: 10729021Abstract: An apparatus includes a housing, a connector, a circuit board and a cap. The housing may have a first opening, a second opening and a third opening. The connector (i) may be configured to seal the first opening of the housing and (ii) may have one or more pins. The circuit board (i) may be disposed inside the housing and (ii) may have one or more vias configured to receive the pins. The second opening may be configured to transfer the circuit board into the housing. The third opening may be configured to receive a comb tool that presses the pins into the vias. The comb tool may be removed from the third opening after the pins are disposed in the vias. The cap may be configured to seal the third opening.Type: GrantFiled: March 5, 2019Date of Patent: July 28, 2020Assignee: VEONEER US INC.Inventor: Luis Fernando Sanchez

Patent number: 9295171Abstract: An electronic assembly comprises a housing, a cover for the housing, a printed circuit board receivable in the housing, and a compliant pin header assembly. The compliant pin header assembly is mountable in the housing by inter-engaging features on the header assembly and the housing. The compliant pin header assembly has compliant pins for engaging corresponding features on the printed circuit board to connect the compliant pin header assembly electrically to the printed circuit board. The cover, when the electronic assembly is assembled, engages the housing and also engages the printed circuit board at a location spaced from an outer periphery of the printed circuit board.Type: GrantFiled: November 5, 2013Date of Patent: March 22, 2016Assignee: TRW Automotive U.S. LLCInventors: Mike Blossfeld, Luis Fernando Sanchez

Patent number: 8542092Abstract: A vehicle ignition system includes a fob for transmitting an identification code. The fob includes a low frequency transceiver circuit and low frequency antenna. An ignition module is provided including, a housing, switch contacts and a push button slidably mounted in the housing and arranged so that pushing of said button closes said switch contacts. A LF coil is provided and is axially stationary within the housing and is located inside of the push button. An ignition module circuit provides power to the fob and establishes low frequency communications with the fob via the LF coil. An immobilizer circuit is operatively coupled to the ignition module for permitting or preventing actuation of the ignition system in response to the low frequency communications with the fob and the ignition module.Type: GrantFiled: January 29, 2009Date of Patent: September 24, 2013Assignee: TRW Automotive U.S. LLCInventors: Paul Lumley, Mike Blossfeld, Luis Fernando Sanchez
