Abstract

A protective cover formed from sheet aluminum, which is used to provide both electrical shielding and mechanical protection for a printed circuit board and its components. The abutting edges of the tubular cover are held in contiguous relationship when the cover is in place, by inturned edges which engage small notches in end plates which are affixed to the printed circuit board.
