Garment with Receptacle and Electronic Module

A garment configured to be worn on a torso of a wearer, the garment comprising:

• a fabric portion configured to engage the torso of the wearer;
• an electrode fixedly connected to the fabric portion, the electrode configured to engage the torso of the wearer;
• a receptacle fixedly connected to the fabric portion, the receptacle comprising:
• a receptacle housing providing a socket, the receptacle housing including an upper portion comprised of a relatively soft and resilient polymer material and a lower portion comprised of a relatively hard and rigid polymer material, the relatively soft and resilient polymer material configured to flex substantially more than the relatively hard and rigid polymer material when a flex force from the wearer is applied to the receptacle;
• and
• an electrode lead provided within the receptacle, the electrode lead providing an electrical connection between the electrode and the socket;
• and
• an electronics module releasably positioned in the socket, the electronics module including a module housing with a module contact retained by the module housing, the electronics module further comprising a processor, a power device, and a transmitter positioned within the module housing, wherein the module contact is electrically connected to the electrode lead when the electronics module is positioned in the socket.

• a fabric portion configured to engage the torso of the wearer;
• an electrode fixedly connected to the fabric portion, the electrode configured to engage the torso of the wearer;
• a receptacle fixedly connected to the fabric portion, the receptacle comprising a receptacle housing, a socket defined by the receptacle housing, and an electrode lead, the electrode lead extending through the receptacle housing and providing an electrical connection between the electrode and the socket;
• and
• an electronics module configured to be removably inserted into the socket of the receptacle and contact the electrode lead, the electronics module including a multi-component injection molded housing including a front face, the front face including a first portion and a second portion, the first portion comprised of a relatively soft and resilient polymer material and the second portion comprised of a relatively hard and rigid polymer material.
