Abstract: An apparatus which routes electrical conductors through a sealed opening in a wall using a flexible printed wiring cable is disclosed. The apparatus includes a thermoplastic material injection molded around a flexible printed wiring cable. Within the molded object, the cable contains two sections where cable conductors are not enclosed within flexible printed wiring insulation. The two sections are separated by a third section in which cable conductors are enclosed within insulation. The cable additionally contains an increased amount of conductor material where the cable enters and exits the molded object. Two O-rings are contained within the periphery of the molded object.

Abstract: An integrated circuit (IC) carrier having uniform conductivity and the ability to securely hold an IC in a predetermined position within the carrier is disclosed. The IC is securely held inside a closed enclosure without using the IC leads to support the IC. Additionally, a viewing window which allows the reading of information printed on the IC from outside the closed enclosure is disclosed. The enclosure is formed as a one-piece object which additionally includes a living hinge, a latching system, structure which aids stacking, and structure which facilitates opening of the enclosure by automated means.
