  • Patent number: 4786757
    Abstract: A flexible electromagnetic pulse shielding conduit for electrical conductors which is constructed of a backshell to which is secured a flexible, sheet material tube and an electrically conductive metallic braid. The braid is located about the tube with both the braid and the tube being secured to the backshell through the use of a metallic band which is shrunk concentrically through the technique of magnetic pulse forming which thereby makes a positive secure connection between the backshell, the braid and the tube. A rubber sleeve is located about the braid which is also secured to the backshell through the technique of magnetic pulse forming which shrinks a second metallic band. The second metallic band overlaps the first metallic band.

  • Patent number: 4693323
    Abstract: A flexible electromagnetic pulse shielding conduit for electrical connectors which is constructed of a backshell to which is threadably secured an end of an elongated convoluted conduit. Located concentrically about the convoluted conduit are different braided layers of electrically conductive material. This electrically conductive material is fixedly secured to a portion of the backshell by shrinking a metallic band disposed thereabout through the use of magnetic pulse forming. A rubber sleeve is located about the layers of electrically conductive material with an end of the rubber sleeve being also fixedly secured to the backshell by use of magnetic pulse forming. Static electricity from the thus formed shielding conduit is to be discharged from the electrically conductive layers through a grounding wire which is conducted through a hole formed in the backshell then through the internal chamber of the backshell and exteriorly thereof.
