Abstract: An enclosure to ensure EMI and RFI shielding for electronic components and/or protective shielding for mechanical components is disclosed. The enclosure comprises a housing having a bottom, side walls connected to the bottom in a shielding relationship to the components and an opening opposite the bottom. Magnetic means detachably secures a cover to the side walls adjacent the opening to close the opening to complete the shielding of the components. A seal associated with the cover and the magnetic means provides an environmental seal for the opening and enhances the EMI and RFI shielding of the components.

Abstract: There is disclosed herein an improved method and apparatus for plastic sealing/bonding in which a wire element is positioned between two interfacing (plastic) pieces to be sealed/bonded together, wherein one or both of said pieces are wholly plastic or contain a plastic component. With the wire sandwiched and retained between the interfacing surfaces, a voltage is applied to the wire for a predetermined time to cause the wire to heat sufficiently to melt both interfacing surfaces and effect a fusion and formation of a bond.
