  • Patent number: 6822160
    Abstract: A contact structure is provided in an electromagnetic shielding, by which the interior of a housing is electromagnetically shielded from the outside. The “housing” in this context can be a building, a living or work container, a living or working unit in the form of a container, a vehicle body, or other structure comprising an inner space. The housing has walls, at least one opening in one of the walls and a closing element adapted to optionally open and close this opening. The housing and the closing element each have an electrically conductive shielding layer. The contact structure serves to establish electric contact between the shielding layers of the housing and the closing element. The contact structure comprises electric contact means at one of the parts, either the wall or the closing element, conductively connected to the conductive layer of this part.

  • Patent number: 5732839
    Abstract: A container (1, 61, 115, 116) has a main unit (2, 62, 116, 161) and at least one additional unit (3, 4, 63, 64, 117, 118, 162) with one side which is open to the main unit (2, 62, 116, 161) whereby each additional unit (3, 4, 63, 64, 117, 118, 162) can be extended from and reeled back into the main unit (2, 62, 116, 161). In accordance with the invention there is one lift device each (44, 45, 49, 50, 107, 108, 109, 110, 111, 124, 137) through which the respective additional unit (3, 4, 63, 64, 117, 118, 162) can be lowered while or after it is extended so that the floor (10, 17, 22, 65, 70, 74, 119, 120, 121) of the main and the additional unit (2, 3, 4, 62, 63, 64, 116, 117, 118, 161, 162) are on the same level and through which the respective additional unit (3, 4, 63, 64, 117, 118, 162) can be lifted before or while it is reeled in so that it can be reeled into the main unit (2, 62, 116, 161).
