  • Electronic module assembly
    Patent number: 5170326
    Abstract: An electronic module assembly (50) has a bendable base plate (52) upon which circuit components (76) are mounted. A module enclosure device (56) mates with the base plate and has an integrally formed, non-removable support arm (96). During assembly, the base plate (52) is bent around the support arm (96) in a "C" shape.
