Method for making multi-part frame

Abstract

A method for making a multi-part frame for a device, to render different parts of the frame available for electronic and other functions of the device, includes providing a plurality of conductive frames, and making each of the conductive frames with a predetermined shape. Each sheet of a plurality of conductive sheets can be coupled to a conductive frame. The conductive frames so coupled are placed in an injection mold and a predetermined gap maintained between conductive frames. The gap between conductive frames can be filled with insulating material to form an insulated frame, the insulated frame partially covering the plurality of conductive sheets.
