Abstract
A sealed structure for an electronic device, the sealed structure includes a base, a concave cover enclosing electronic components of the electronic device when the cover is fitted to the base, and a gasket-like sealing member that fits between edge portions of the cover and the base to seal the enclosure. A rib portion is formed on at least one of either the cover or the base so as to prevent the sealing member from protruding from the edge portions of the cover and base, thus providing an improved seal.
