Abstract
A waterproof casing for an electronic equipment includes a box-shaped case member and a plane-shaped cover member including a sheet-form sealing gasket extending from the overall periphery of the cover member. The cover member is inserted and fixed to the case member with the gasket sliding into and pressing against the inner surface of the case member to secure a tight waterproof seal. The cover member also can be partially plate-shaped and partially box-shaped. The waterproof casing structure reduces the size, particularly height, of the casing and simplifies assembly.
