Abstract: An electronic device having a unitary housing is disclosed. The device can include a first housing component having an open cavity, an internal electronic part disposed within the cavity, a second housing component disposed across the cavity, and a support feature disposed within the cavity and arranged to support the second housing component. The first housing component can be formed from metal, while the second housing component can be formed from a plurality of laminated foil metal layers. The second housing component can be attached to the first housing component via one or more ultrasonic welds, such that a fully enclosed housing is created. The fully enclosed housing can be hermetically sealed, and the outside surfaces thereof can be machined or otherwise finished after the ultrasonic welding.
Abstract translation: 公开了具有整体式壳体的电子设备。 该装置可以包括具有开放空腔的第一壳体部件,设置在腔体内部的内部电子部件,跨越腔体设置的第二壳体部件和设置在腔体内并被布置成支撑第二壳体部件的支撑部件。 第一壳体部件可以由金属形成,而第二壳体部件可以由多个层压箔金属层形成。 第二壳体部件可以经由一个或多个超声波焊缝附接到第一壳体部件,使得产生完全封闭的壳体。 完全封闭的壳体可以被密封,并且其外表面可以在超声波焊接之后被加工或以其他方式完成。

Abstract: A device includes a display and a housing. The housing at least partially surrounds the display. The housing includes a first housing segment defining at least a first portion of an exterior surface of the device and a first interlock feature having an interlock surface that is offset with respect to an end surface of the first housing segment. The first interlock feature has a first opening formed in the interlock surface. The housing further includes a second housing segment defining at least a second portion of the exterior surface of the device and a second interlock feature having a second opening aligned with the first opening, and a non-conductive housing component defining a third portion of the exterior surface of the device and extending into the first opening and the second opening.
