Abstract

Abstract A magnetic shielding device, adapted to protect a magnetic recording member against external magnetic fields, includes a plurality of spaced apart sheets of ferromagnetic material and the total thickness of the spacings between adjacent sheets of ferromagnetic material is selected to be larger than 0.5 mm. In a modification, the spaced sheets are covered with covers and the peripheral portions thereof are welded together. In another modification a sheet of insulating material having a surface area larger than those of the sheets of ferromagnetic material is interposed therebetween.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 120 words
A magnetic shielding device, comprising; a main body and a lid fitted to said main body to allow a magnetic recording member to be contained in said main body when said lid is in a closed position; each of said main body and said lid comprising at least two spaced sheets of ferromagnetic material, and spacing means for supporting said adjacent ferromagnetic sheets so that the total sum of the spacings between adjacent ferromagnetic sheets each of said main body and said lid is larger than 0.5 mm; wherein a magnetic field external of said main body and said lid when closed is substantially attenuated when passing inside said main body in the vicinity of a contained magnetic recording member.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 120 words
A magnetic shielding device, comprising; a main body and a lid fitted to said main body to allow a magnetic recording member to be contained in said main body when said lid is in a closed position; each of said main body and said lid comprising at least two spaced sheets of ferromagnetic material, and spacing means for supporting said adjacent ferromagnetic sheets so that the total sum of the spacings between adjacent ferromagnetic sheets each of said main body and said lid is larger than 0.5 mm; wherein a magnetic field external of said main body and said lid when closed is substantially attenuated when passing inside said main body in the vicinity of a contained magnetic recording member.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 23 words
The magnetic shielding device according to claim 1 wherein each said sheet of ferromagnetic material has a thickness of at least 0.05 mm.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 22 words
The magnetic shielding device according to claim 1 wherein at least one of said sheets of ferromagnetic material comprises soft ferromagnetic material.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 39 words
The magnetic shielding device according to claim 1, including insulating material interposed between adjacent sheets of ferromagnetic material of each of said main body and said lid and extending outwardly beyond the periphery of said sheets of ferromagnetic material.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 43 words
The magnetic shielding device according to claim 1 which further comprises outer cover layers covering each of the groups of adjacent sheets of ferromagnetic material of each of said main body and said lid, peripheral portions of said cover layers being welded together.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 43 words
The magnetic shielding device according to claim 5 which further comprises a sheet of insulating material having a surface larger than those of said adjacent sheets of ferromagnetic material of each of said main body and said lid, and interposed between the same.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 44 words
The magnetic shielding device according to claim 1 wherein said adjacent sheets of ferromagnetic material of each of said main body and said lid are spaced from each other with non-magnetic spacers interposed between the adjacent sheets of ferromagnetic material, around their peripheral portions.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 26 words
The magnetic shielding device according to claim 6, wherein the space between said adjacent sheets of ferromagnetic material and between said spacers is devoid of material.
