  • Patent number: 6420649
    Abstract: A process is disclosed for screening a part of an electrical or electronic circuit, which part is surrounded by an electrically-conductive frame, from absorbing and/or emitting electromagnetic interference fields. The process comprises taking an electrically-conductive screening cap, with an open side bordered by a rim that contains a seating surface, and forming an elastic and electrically-conductive screening seal by directly applying the sealing compound to the seating surface in such a way that the screening seal projects beyond the seating surface. The screening cap is then placed with the screening seal on the electrically-conductive frame to fix the screening cap on the electrically-conductive frame.

  • Patent number: 6323418
    Abstract: The invention concerns an electrical screening housing for accommodating components or assemblies which emit electromagnetic radiation or are sensitive thereto, and for providing electromagnetic screening for the components or assemblies. The housing includes at least two parts with electrically screening walls, a sealing element being provided in an adhesive manner on at least one housing part in the region of a joint with the other housing part. The sealing element and at least one portion of the housing part bearing the latter are made of substantially non-conductive material and, for electromagnetic screening purposes, are covered with a cohesive, electrically conductive layer which extends at least over the entire width of the joint and adheres to the joint element and the housing part.

  • Patent number: 6312550
    Abstract: Method of producing a shielding casing (4) in which there is provided a sealing and shielding profile section (9) which fills a gap between first and second adjoining casing portions (1, 2) and which comprising pasty material is applied under pressure from a coordinate-controlled applicator device (5) having an applicator needle or nozzle directly on to the first casing portion and then sets there elastically adhering thereto in self-supporting relationship, wherein the sealing and shielding profile section is produced by simultaneously applying at least one first material (8a) with material properties adapted for a good sealing action and a second material (8b) with material properties adapted to a good shielding action, from the applicator needle or nozzle (6) provided with at least a first and a second passage (6a, 6b), whereby the second material firmly adheres to the first material.

  • Patent number: 6096158
    Abstract: This invention concerns a process for producing an electromagnetically screening seal (15) which consists of a substrate (10) to which a sealant strand (14) out of an elastic and electrically conducting sealant material is firmly affixed. In this process a curable elastic and electrically conducting sealant material in paste form is applied to adhere in a pre-set geometrical pattern to the substrate (10) and subsequently is cured. The flexibility in the application is increased in that the sealant is applied to the substrate (10) through a nozzle (13) in the form of a sealant strand (14) by means of an application device (12) which moves relative to the substrate (10). The sealant strand (14) then is cured.
