Sealing mechanism

Abstract

A sealing mechanism is provided, including a housing, a groove, and a sealing element. The housing includes a first member and a second member, and the groove is formed between the first and second members. The sealing element is formed in the groove by Low Pressure Molding (LPM) and surrounds at least one of the first and second members.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A sealing mechanism, comprising:
 a housing, including a first member and a second member connected to each other;   a groove, formed between the first and second members; and   a sealing element, formed in the groove by Low Pressure Molding (LPM), wherein the sealing element is connected between the first and second members and surrounds at least one of the first and second members.   
     
     
         2 . The sealing mechanism as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the first member forms an inner wall, an outer wall, and a recess between the inner wall and the outer wall, and the second member has a hook joined in the recess. 
     
     
         3 . The sealing mechanism as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the hook has a slope surface. 
     
     
         4 . The sealing mechanism as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the first member has a first engaging portion, the second member has a second engaging portion, and a conductive element is clamped between the first and second engaging portions. 
     
     
         5 . The sealing mechanism as claimed in  claim 4 , wherein the sealing element has a connection portion that surrounds the conductive element and covers the first and second engaging portions. 
     
     
         6 . The sealing mechanism as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the sealing element forms two connection portions and two extension portions connected to the connection portions, and the connection portions respectively surround a conductive element. 
     
     
         7 . The sealing mechanism as claimed in  claim 1 , further comprising a fastener extending through the second member into the first member, wherein the sealing element conceals the fastener. 
     
     
         8 . The sealing mechanism as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the first member forms a rib, the second member forms a recess, and the rib is joined in the recess. 
     
     
         9 . The sealing mechanism as claimed in  claim 8 , wherein the sealing element forms a sidewall received in the recess and clamped between the rib and the second member. 
     
     
         10 . The sealing mechanism as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the first member comprises plastic or metal material.
