Abstract: A modular system of plastic walls having embedded and coextensive electrically conductive components configured to electrically connect with each other when the walls are mated. The walls have joining edges that form joint seams with other walls when joined together to create an enclosure. When enough walls are used to surround a storage space, a Faraday cage is created. The walls additionally have portions of tortuous paths at each joining edge that mate with a complementary portion of a tortuous path of another wall when the walls are joined together. A torturous path seal is thereby created at each joint seam. The plastic walls can be configured in a multiplicity of combinations to create various enclosures necessary for RFID-enabled storage and tracking of medical articles. Containers, enclosures, cabinets, and drawers of differing heights and sizes can be made and they may be stacked or otherwise assembled.

Abstract: Radio-frequency (RF) leakage from shielded enclosures is minimized while ensuring applicable RF attenuation standards and access requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) by attaching an inflatable bladder to a door of an enclosure. Substantially surrounding the bladder is an electrically conductive material. When the bladder is inflated it makes contact with conductive material which in turn makes conductive contact with the door frame to create an RF seal. The use of the bladder and conductive material provides an improved RF seal and allows for the use of a low-profile threshold that permits ADA access to, and from, the enclosure.
