Abstract:
An electromagnetic compatibility (“EMC”) gasket includes a first conductive portion moveable to a plurality of positions. A secondary conductive portion is connected to the first conductive portion at an adjacent edge. A third conductive portion is opposite the secondary conductive portion such that the first portion is between the second and third portions. The third conductive portion is connected to the first conductive portion at an adjacent edge. The third conductive portion is curved creating a hook structure such that when in a housing the third conductive portion engages a portion of the housing. This engagement causes the first conductive portion of the EMC gasket to fold and/or flex as an electronic card is moved within the housing in a lateral direction while the housing is disposed stationary in a chassis to mate a connector on the electronic card with a connector in the chassis.
