Sheet metal waterproof design for flex sealing

A method, comprising:

• attaching, by an assembler, a flex cable holder to an internal portion of a first assembly and to a first side of a flex cable, wherein the flex cable runs through a hinge mechanism attached between the first assembly and a second assembly that are assemblies of a foldable display assembly;
• attaching, by the assembler, a fixer component that includes one or more hooks as abutting a second side of the flex cable opposite that of the first side, wherein attaching include matingly engaging the one or more hooks within the internal portion of the first assembly;
• and
• applying, by the assembler, an adhesive filler to a space between the flex cable holder, the fixer component, and at least part of the internal portion of the first assembly.

A kit for securing a flex cable within a foldable display assembly, the kit comprising:

• a first assembly;
• a second assembly;
• a flexible display spanning at least a portion of the first assembly and a portion of the second assembly;
• a hinge mechanism attached between the first assembly and the second assembly;
• a flex cable that run between the first assembly and the second assembly through the hinge mechanism;
• a flex cable holder to be attached to an internal portion of the first assembly and to a first side of the flex cable;
• a fixer component that includes one or more hooks positioned to matingly engage within the internal portion of the first assembly and to cause the fixer component to abut a second side of the flex cable opposite that of the first side;
• and
• an adhesive filler to be applied to a space between the flex cable holder, the fixer component, the flex cable, and at least part of the internal portion of the first assembly.
