Abstract:
The invention relates to an EMI gasket for mounting on a wall of a housing of an electrical appliance. The gasket includes a plurality of elements arranged in a row wherein two adjacent elements are interconnected by connection pieces. At least one of the elements includes a clamping section for clamping the device onto the housing and a shielding section to perform the shielding function. According to the invention, at least one element further includes a snapping member which serves as a barb for latching into a recess within the wall of the housing where the gasket is to be installed such that the gasket is locked on the wall thereby preventing unintentional movement of the gasket or even that the gasket is slipping off of the housing.

Abstract:
A gasket assembly structure including a frame which includes a front half and a back half joined together with a plurality of interlocking tabs located around a perimeter of the frame, defining a window, and an electromagnetic gasket, constrained between the front half and the back half of the frame; where the electromagnetic gasket lines an interior perimeter of the window and partially extends from the frame into the window, and a passageway through the window of the frame with boarders defined by the constrained electromagnetic gasket. A housing structure including a receptacle recessed within an opening on a front side of the housing, the receptacle is rigidly attached to the housing, and a gasket assembly recessed within the opening and located between the front side of the housing and the receptacle, where the gasket assembly is directly secured to the housing.
Abstract:
An electrically-conducting assembly for conducting a first housing and a second housing of an electronic device. The first housing is detachably combined with the second housing. The electrically-conducting assembly includes a retaining wall and a lapping part. The retaining wall is perpendicularly provided at the first housing, and a surface of the retaining wall has an electrically-conducting layer. The lapping part is perpendicularly provided at the second housing, and a surface of the lapping part has another electrically-conducting layer. The lapping part and the retaining wall contact with each other when the first housing and the second housing are combined so that the electrically-conducting layer and the another electrically-conducting layer are mutually conductive.
Abstract:
According to one embodiment, a grounding gasket includes a main body and a projecting part. The main body is configured to be interposed between a ground part and a substrate and contact the ground part and the substrate. The projecting part projects from the main body. The projecting part is configured to extend through a through-hole which is opened in the substrate, project to a side opposite to a side on which the ground part is located, and contact a conductive component mounted on the substrate.
Abstract:
A wire defining a repeating pattern is removably joined to a flange having apertures defined therein. The wire includes contact portions to make electrically-conductive contact with a device supported by a chassis. The device can be cooled by air flow through the apertures of the flange while being protected against electromagnetic interference (EMI). The wire and the flange can be respectively formed from various metals and are separable from each other for recycling or other purposes.
Abstract:
Compressible grounding pads with two conductor layers separated by a compressible foam layer comprise: (A) A first conductor layer, e.g., copper foil; (B) A first adhesive layer in direct contact with a part of the first conductor layer, the first conductor layer extending beyond the first adhesive layer; (C) A foam layer in direct contact with one facial side of the first adhesive layer; (D) A second adhesive layer in direct contact with the opposite facial side of foam layer; (E) A second conductor layer, e.g., copper foil, in direct contact with the second adhesive layer, the second conductor layer extending beyond the second adhesive layer such that the second conductor layer joins with the first conductor layer; (F) An electrically conductive third adhesive layer in direct contact with the facial surface opposite the facial surface that is in direct contact with the second conductor layer; and (G) An optional release liner in direct contact with the third adhesive layer.
Abstract:
A method and structures are provided for implementing a latching gasket including an electrically conductive fabric, and a latching clip. The latching clip includes a support member carrying the electrically conductive fabric for radio frequency (RF) connection engagement with a first wall surface. The latching clip includes a first channel-defining member and a second channel-defining member extending downwardly from the support member. The first channel-defining member carries the electrically conductive fabric for radio frequency (RF) connection engagement with a second wall surface received in a channel defined by the first and second channel-defining members. The latching clip includes a latch arm extending outwardly and downwardly from an end of the support member near the second channel-defining member. The second channel-defining member includes an outwardly and upwardly extending plate with at least one latching tab for latching engagement and spring biasing with the latch arm in a closed position of the latching gasket.
Abstract:
Electrically conductive bearing retainers create an electrical path between the static and dynamic sides of a rotating joint to block EMI radiation from entering or leaving a system. Concentric annular inner and outer bearing retainers with an array of conductive contact members therebetween are installed in contact with the inner and outer races of a dynamic bearing interface. Each contact member includes a base and tips. The outer bearing retainer ring has a recess for mounting a contact member and a notch for positioning the contact member tips to make contact with the inner bearing retainer ring. The inner bearing retainer ring includes a conductive contact surface. The contact member tips contact the conductive contact surface to create a dynamic shield between an inner bearing race and an outer bearing race.
