Abstract: A portable memory card including a molded plastic casing formed over a memory device and other circuits mounted on a substrate such that the molding material extends over side edges of the substrate to provide accurate width and thickness dimensions. Contact pads are formed on a lower surface of the PCBA substrate, which is exposed through a bottom of the casing. The PCBA is fabricated on a substrate carrier, then positioned inside of a mold assembly. During the molding process, a rod extends from an upper portion of the mold assembly and pushes the substrate against the lower surface. A vacuum is then applied to hold the substrate against the lower surface of the mold, and the rod is subsequently withdrawn from the mold cavity during injection of the molten molding material. A single cavity mold assembly provides molding material extends over front and back edges of the memory card.

Abstract: A card-type electronic apparatus such as an SD card, a CF card, a Memory Stick card, or a USB flash drive is formed from an upper and lower cover that are bonded together at an interior seam formed using ultrasonic joining. Lower sidewalls on the lower cover create an installation pocket for the upper cover. The installation pocket not only simplifies alignment between the upper and lower covers, but also contains any bonder material overflow that might otherwise affect the external dimensions of the apparatus housing. The lower sidewalls can completely surround the upper cover, for drop in installation. Alternatively, the lower sidewalls can partially surround the upper cover, so that the upper cover can be slid into place during assembly.

Abstract: Plastic casings are simultaneously molded onto several PCBAs attached to a carrier in a closely-spaced arrangement. All edges of each PCBA have integral connecting segments that extend through grooves formed in the associated mold assembly, and are pinched when the molds assembly is closed to precisely and reliably position the PCBA inside of an associated cavity during the molding process. In one embodiment, the PCB substrate is positioned in a bent arrangement to accommodate the use of inexpensive memory devices. Write-protect switches are provided.

Abstract: Secure-digital (SD) type memory cards are produced using one or more prefabricated cover portions and a molded casing portion. A sub-assembly is formed by mounting a printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) onto the cover portion such that the contact pads of the PCBA are exposed through associated windows defined in the cover. The sub-assembly is placed into a cavity formed in a mold assembly, and molten thermoplastic material is then injected into each cavity of the mold assembly under heat and pressure using known injection molding techniques, thereby forming a molded plastic casing portion that secures the PCBA to the cover and completes the memory card housing.

Abstract: A computer peripheral device including a positioning mechanism for deploying and retracting a USB plug connector. The connector is retracted and locked into the housing while not in use. The housing provides protection from potential damage to the connector due to external contact. The positioning mechanism includes a handle that can be pressed down, slid along the housing surface, and locked into position to expose the plug connector when data transfer to and from the host is needed. The reverse motion will retract and secure the connector/PCBA to be locked completely inside the housing. The mechanism is engaged with features built in the housing to provide locking and unlocking functions. The engagement mechanism can be exposed or hidden from view. The mechanism can be mounted on top or side surfaces of the housing of the USB pen drive. Several design options are disclosed.

Abstract: A low-profile Universal-Serial-Bus (USB) connector includes a substantially flat base structure that is received in the lower section of a conventional female USB connector, and includes metal contacts formed on an upper surface of the base structure. Wobble or vertical play is reduced by rails extending along side edges of the base structure that are partially inserted into gaps formed between the metal case and base structure of the female USB connector. Between metal contacts on the low-profile USB connector are raised ribs (dividers) that prevent undesirable damage or contamination to the metal contacts. The connector base structure of the low-profile USB connector can be separate or can be integrated with a circuit board that holds a flash memory chip and a USB controller chip.
