ABSTRACT:
A terminal contact assembly is provided for hermetically sealing the interior and the exterior of an electronic device. The terminal contact assembly includes a terminal contact extending through an opening in the housing of the electronic device. The terminal contact has an inner end within the interior of the electronic device and an outer end. A deformable seal is positioned about the terminal contact within the opening through the housing. An inner insulator is positioned within the interior of the electronic device adjacent the inner surface thereof and an outer insulator is positioned about the terminal contact adjacent the outer surface of the housing. A torque generating structure generates a deformable force on the seal such that the seal seals the opening through the housing.
