Zusammenfassung:A protective encasement for an electronic device includes members that clasp together and a dispensed seal disposed on an inside surface of one of the members to form a watertight barrier between the member and a surface of the installed electronic device. The dispensed seal may comprise an elastomeric material dispensed on and adhered to the inside surface of the encasement. A first overlap region of the dispensed seal may overlap a second overlap region of the dispensed seal at an overlap point to form a closed loop. The closed loop may have a substantially uniform thickness to form the watertight barrier. The first and second overlap regions may each have reduced thicknesses that are less than the uniform thickness, but a combined thickness of the overlap regions at the overlap point substantially equals the uniform thickness to complete the closed loop of the seal.
