One-piece shielding enclosure with selective interior access, and method and blank therefor

摘要

A shielding enclosure has an access opening for enabling selective access to a component placed in the shielding enclosure, a closure member and a connector section selectively expansible and contractible to enable the closure member to be captured within the access opening upon expansion of the connecting section to complete shielding of the component and to be disengaged from the access opening upon contraction of the connecting section. In the preferred construction, the connecting section is in the form of a perforated web having beams oriented oblique to the directions of expansion and contraction, and the shielding enclosure is made in one piece from a single blank of shielding material.
