SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MANUFACTURING ELECTRONIC DEVICE HOUSINGS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18221239 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MANUFACTURING ELECTRONIC DEVICE HOUSINGS

Simplified Explanation

- The patent application describes a method of manufacturing an electronic device housing. - The method involves obtaining a monolithic body made of RF transparent material. - The surface of the monolithic body is then plated with a nanograin coating. - The purpose of the nanograin coating is to increase the structural rigidity of the monolithic body. - After plating, a portion of the nanograin coating is removed to create an RF window. - The RF window allows for the transmission of radio frequency signals. - The innovation lies in the use of the nanograin coating to enhance the structural integrity of the housing while maintaining RF transparency. - The method provides a solution for manufacturing electronic device housings that require both structural rigidity and RF transparency.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method of manufacturing an electronic device housing includes obtaining a monolithic body of RF transparent material and plating a surface of the monolithic body with a nanograin coating to increase the structural rigidity of the monolithic body. A portion of the nanograin coating is thereafter removed to create an RF window.
