Abstract
A waterproof case for receiving a circuit board includes a housing, a cover and a waterproof washer. The inner edge of the opening end of the housing is formed into a slant inner edge, and a closed end of the housing is provided with supporting members for supporting the circuit board. The cover is attached to the opening end of the housing, and has an annular flange for mounting the waterproof washer, mounting members for mounting the circuit board, and a through hole for wires. When fixing the cover onto the housing by appropriate fastening members, the waterproof washer will be pushed by the cover and abut against the slant inner edge, and thereby achieve the seal between the cover and the housing.

A detachable cover and base for housing open standard electrical wiring, the cover and the base having shoulders portions which readily engage and disengage. When coupled the shoulder portions form tubular projections that hold electrical conduits containing electrical wiring. A gasket is provided between the base and the cover to form a waterproof barrier. The tubular projections are perpendicular to walls of the cover and the base, and allow electrical wiring to be connected from multiple directions within a residence.

An invention relates to an indicating instrument, in particular for a motor vehicle, having a housing with a front frame holding a cover pane, and an elastic spacing element arranged between the cover pane and front frame, and a method for connecting the cover pane to the front frame. In order to ensure a reliable connection between the cover pane and front frame which is without play, the spacing element be is placed in an axial cutout which is arranged in the region of the circumference of the front frame and faces the cover pane, and in which the cover pane can engage. The method consists in that in a first step the spacing element is inserted into the axial cutout in the front frame, and in a second step the cover pane is pressed into the axial cutout against the spacing element.
