Systems and methods for sealing and providing wireless power to wearable or implantable devices

A device comprising:

• a first housing portion defining a first coupling surface;
• a second housing portion defining a second coupling surface, the first housing portion coupled to the second housing portion to form a housing, the first housing portion and the second housing portion defining an opening, the opening intersecting the first coupling surface and the second coupling surface;
• a printed circuit board (“PCB”) disposed within the housing and coupled to at least one of the first or second housing portions;
• an electrical connector electrically coupled to the printed circuit board and positioned within the opening;
• a gasket defined to correspond to the first and second coupling surfaces and to the electrical connector;
• and
• wherein:
• the gasket is positioned between the first coupling surface and the second coupling surface, the gasket providing a first seal between the first housing portion and the second housing portion, and
• the electrical connector is positioned to extend through the gasket, the gasket providing a second seal between the electrical connector and the housing.

A method comprising:

• providing a first housing portion defining a first coupling surface;
• providing a second housing portion defining a second coupling surface, the first and second housing portions defining a housing when coupled, the housing defining an opening, the opening intersecting the first coupling surface and the second coupling surface;
• physically coupling a first gasket to one of the first or second coupling surfaces;
• providing a printed circuit board (“PCB”) having an electrical connector;
• physically coupling a second gasket to the electrical connector;
• physically coupling the PCB to at least one of the first or second housing portions and engaging the second gasket with the at least one of the first or second housing portions;
• physically coupling the one of the first or second housing portions to the other of the first or second housing portions;
• applying a sealing force to the first and second housing portions to compress the first gasket to create a first seal;
• engaging the second gasket with the other of the first or second housing portions to create a second seal;
• and
• engaging the second gasket with the first gasket to create a third seal.
