Patent number: 11520442Abstract: A touchscreen for a display device may include a top layer, a bottom layer, and a middle layer between the top layer and the bottom layer. The touchscreen may also include a deposited material that extends around a perimeter of the touchscreen. A length of the deposited material has a length that extends from at least a first portion of the top layer to at least a second portion of the bottom layer. The deposited material may form a seal over the middle layer between the touchscreen and an environment of the display device.Type: GrantFiled: August 12, 2021Date of Patent: December 6, 2022Assignee: Rockwell Automation Technologies, Inc.Inventors: John Van Hecke, Mark S.

Patent number: 8878060Abstract: An electronic device may include housing structures, electronic components, and other structures. A gap may be formed between the structures. A membrane structure may be used to bridge the gap to form and environmental seal and electrical pathway between the structures. The membrane structure may be deployed using a temporary biasing member or may be installed by forming an inflatable structure. The inflatable structure may include an elastomeric balloon that may be pressurized. Adhesive such as conductive adhesive may be used in attaching the membrane structure to the structures in the electronic device. An inflatable structure may be depressurized following installation in an electronic device to minimize residual forces.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2011Date of Patent: November 4, 2014Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Derek Wright, Erik A. Uttermann, Fletcher R. Rothkopf

Patent number: 8492660Abstract: 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.Type: GrantFiled: October 22, 2008Date of Patent: July 23, 2013Inventors: Dominick Carducci, Glenn A. McNemar, Mary R. Castle, Robert A. Wiatr

Patent number: 7709748Abstract: A shielding apparatus for electromagnetic testing includes a platform, a lid forming a cavity, a driving unit, and an elastic gasket attached to a bottom of the lid around a rim adjacent the cavity. The platform is for placing an electronic device to be tested. The lid is for covering the platform to define a closed space. The driving unit is for lifting and lowering the lid. The gasket is for being compressed and filling gaps between the lid and the platform when the platform covers the lid.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2007Date of Patent: May 4, 2010Assignee: Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., Ltd.Inventors: Shen-Kwang Hsieh, Kuo-Chih Kuo

Patent number: 7659483Abstract: A gasket for shielding a seam between two surfaces includes a resilient member, a first electrode, a second electrode and a conductive layer. The resilient member has a first side and an opposite second side. The first electrode is disposed on the first side of the resilient member. The second electrode is disposed on the second side of the resilient member. The conductive layer envelops at least a portion of the resilient member, the first electrode and the second electrode. The resilient member includes a material that is compressed when a first potential is applied between the first electrode and the second electrode and that is decompressed when a second potential, different from the first potential, is applied between the first electrode and the second electrode.Type: GrantFiled: May 21, 2008Date of Patent: February 9, 2010Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Don A Gilliland, Sophia S.

Patent number: 7385147Abstract: Apparatus for housing electrically powered components to protect such components from damage and interference caused by lightning strikes and other externally generated magnetic fields. On embodiment includes a shielded enclosure mounted on an electrically groundable platform mounted on legs. An extendable and retractable mast is disclosed and may be supported on the platform and electrically grounded thereto. In another embodiment, the platform is portable and the shielded enclosures may be mounted to the electrically groundable platform by shock absorbers and be electrically grounded thereto. Adjustable outriggers may also be mounted to the platform.Type: GrantFiled: November 3, 2003Date of Patent: June 10, 2008Assignee: Pioneer Energy Products, LLCInventor: Victor H. Garmong
