Abstract:
1. An apparatus adapted to house and protect an electronic device having a electrical port to receive an electrical connector to connect to an external device, the apparatus has a plurality of surfaces, comprising: a first member having a first planer section and a first perimetric wall formed thereon, the first planer section and the first perimetric wall forming part of the plurality of surfaces; a second member having a second planer section and a second perimetric wall formed thereon, the second planer section and the second perimetric wall forming a part of the plurality of surfaces, wherein the second perimetric wall is separably engaged with the first perimetric wall to form an enclosure between the second member and the first member, the enclosure being water-tightly sealed from the outside by a sealing ring; an open access through a surface adapted to allow the electrical connector to penetrate and make connection to the electrical port on the housed electronic device, wherein the open access has an outer mating ring on its inner surface; an access cover having a plug adapted to plug into the open access, wherein the plug has an inner mating ring on its outer surface; wherein the inner mating ring on the plug is adapted to mate to the outer mating ring on the open access; and wherein a dimensional interference is caused by a dimension on the inner mating ring being greater than a corresponding dimension on the outer mating ring when the inner mating ring and the outer mating ring are mated.
