Abstract
Abstract The invention is an electromagnetic shielding component for increasing the effect of electromagnetic shielding at the rear end of an electronic connector. The metal shield shell can be closely connected to the metal shield sheet of a cable through the design of many adjacent strip-like tentacles at the rear end of an electronic connector. Therefore, the assembly precision for the shield shell and the cable can be increased to produce a rear end electromagnetic shielding component with the advantages of easy assembly and prevention of electromagnetic wave leakage.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
197 words
An electromagnetic shielding component for enhancing an electromagnetic shielding effect at a joint between an electronic connector and a cable, the shielding component comprising: a first metal shield sheet including a bottom wall, a first left wall, a first right, wall and a plurality of tentacles, the tentacles having a strip shape, both the first left wall and the first right wall being extended upwardly from the bottom wall and the plurality of tentacles extending from the first left wall, the first right wall and the bottom walls toward said cable; and a second metal shield sheet including a top wall, a second left wall and a second right wall, both the second left wall and the second right wall being extended downwardly from the top wall and being sized to fit into a space between the first left wall and the first right wall of the first shield sheet; and a constricting member extending transversely from the top wall to be engaged with the tentacles to tightly press the tentacles around a periphery of a metal shield of the cable, the constricting member being aligned with an axis of the cable when engaged on the tentacles.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
197 words
An electromagnetic shielding component for enhancing an electromagnetic shielding effect at a joint between an electronic connector and a cable, the shielding component comprising: a first metal shield sheet including a bottom wall, a first left wall, a first right, wall and a plurality of tentacles, the tentacles having a strip shape, both the first left wall and the first right wall being extended upwardly from the bottom wall and the plurality of tentacles extending from the first left wall, the first right wall and the bottom walls toward said cable; and a second metal shield sheet including a top wall, a second left wall and a second right wall, both the second left wall and the second right wall being extended downwardly from the top wall and being sized to fit into a space between the first left wall and the first right wall of the first shield sheet; and a constricting member extending transversely from the top wall to be engaged with the tentacles to tightly press the tentacles around a periphery of a metal shield of the cable, the constricting member being aligned with an axis of the cable when engaged on the tentacles.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
23 words
The electromagnetic shielding component according to claim 1 , wherein the constricting member is connected to the top wall by a joint member.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
66 words
The electromagnetic shielding component according to claim 1 , further comprising at least one protruding member on one of the walls of one of the shield sheets and at least one mating opening on one of the walls of the other shield sheet, the at least one protruding member being engaged in the opening when the second shield sheet is fit into the first shield sheet.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
47 words
The electromagnetic shielding component according to claim 3 , wherein both the first and second walls of the second shield sheet have at least one of the protruding members and the first and second walls of the first shield sheet have at least one of the openings.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
21 words

Claim 7
Dependent Claim
90 words
The electromagnetic shielding component according to claim 1 , wherein the first left and right walls of the first shield sheet have a predetermined distance therebetween and wherein at least some of the tentacles extend from the first left and right walls of the first shield sheet, and before the constricting member engages the tentacles, the tentacles on the first wall being spaced from the tentacles on the second wall of the first shield sheet the same predetermined distance as between the predetermined distance between the first and second walls.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
26 words
The electromagnetic shielding component according to claim 1 , wherein spacing between adjacent tentacles is a generally constant distance before the constricting member engages the tentacles.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
28 words
The electromagnetic shielding component according to claim 7 , wherein the first shield sheet with the plurality of tentacles and the second shield sheet form a rectangular enclosure.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
26 words
