  • Publication number: 20080169996
    Abstract: A waterproof housing is used for accommodating electronic components of an antenna device. The waterproof housing includes a casing and a base body. The casing has a plurality of combination holes disposed on a sidewall thereof, and the electronic components are disposed on the base body. The base body has a plurality of combination members corresponding to the combination holes. The electronic components are accommodated inside the casing by snapping the combination members and the combination holes. The positions of the electronic components are higher than those of the combination holes, when rain water comes into the casing through the combination holes, the rain water will flow down into the base body, and thus the electronic components are prevented from being wet and damaged by the rain water.

    Abstract: A rotary spindle structure applied in a housing is provided, which includes two spindle lugs having a suspended resilient butt joint respectively. When a spindle rod is fit in the spindle lugs, both end faces of the spindle rod bear against the resilient butt joints, so that the resilient butt joints are forced to expand outwards till a pivot hole of the spindle rod is snapped with protruding walls of the spindle lugs, and thus, the spindle rod is freely rotationally connected to the spindle lugs. Furthermore, a pair of reinforcing pads is used to bear against the resilient butt joints to enhance the joining strength between the spindle lugs and the spindle rod.

  • Publication number: 20070059979
    Abstract: A waterproof housing is provided, which includes a first housing cover and a second housing cover that are snapped with each other to form an inner chamber, wherein the first housing cover has a closed annular-shaped outer retaining wall on one side and an inner retaining wall; a channel is naturally formed there-between; and the second housing cover has a closed annular-shaped embedding wall on one side that is correspondingly embedded into the channel. The housing formed by combining the outer retaining wall with the inner retaining wall takes the two retaining walls as two defenses to prevent the rain or foreign matters from entering into the chamber. Even if the rain penetrates into the channel via a gap by accident, the rain flows to the bottom part along the channel and is discharged from the drain holes disposed at the bottom, without being retained in the housing.
