Abstract: Shielding apparatus for an electrical assembly. A shroud that covers a front cover of the assembly is located at the front side of the electrical assembly that is insertable into a magazine. The shroud is snapped onto the front cover with retaining tabs and has laterally resilient contact tabs that are contacted by contact tabs of neighboring shrouds. As a result, the shrouds are directly connected to one another, so that only one electrical junction between the shielding parts is established per assembly. In particular, the shielding effect is so effective that the shrouds can be utilized in radio-frequency electrical systems.

Abstract: Spring contacts are arranged in the insertion direction between immediate-neighboring printed circuit boards of various assemblies, the contact locations in the spring contacts being at the distance of a parting line of the assemblies. The spring contacts are directly electrically connected to the printed circuit boards, more specifically to circuit interconnects thereof. As a result of this structure, a direct electrical connection between the printed circuit boards can be produced while avoiding plug-type connectors for the assemblies. The assemblies can nonetheless be individually inserted unimpeded in an arbitrary sequence.
