Abstract

An electromagnetic shielding device for use along gaps between relatively movable surfaces of doors, access panels, drawers, and cabinets, etc., includes an electrically conductive shielding strip formed of longitudinally arranged segments integrally connected by a carrier strip. Each segment is mounted on a corresponding segment of a mount track which is adapted to securely lock the shielding strip in place. The design of the electromagnetic shielding device of the present invention provides enhanced capabilities of electromagnetic shielding as well as improvements in structural rigidity and mechanical durability. The design also facilitates installation of shielding in confined areas and repair of damaged shielding.
