MOTOR CONTROLLED RETRACTABLE EMC PROTECTION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18449096 titled 'MOTOR CONTROLLED RETRACTABLE EMC PROTECTION
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a system and method for controlling an EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) protection apparatus in a removable component that is inserted into an end product.
- The removable component is inserted into the end product, which applies power to the EMC protection apparatus.
- The system detects whether a power good signal is present within the removable component.
- If a power good signal is detected, an EMC protection device is rotated from a retracted state to an engaged state.
- The EMC protection device is placed over an enclosure opening in the removable component, creating an EMC seal.
- The rotation of the EMC protection device may cause a delay in the full functionality of the removable component until the rotation is completed.
Original Abstract Submitted
A system and method for controlling an EMC protection apparatus in a removable component. The removable component is inserted into an end product. As a result of the insertion power is applied to the EMC protection apparatus. A determination is made as to whether a power good signal is detected within the removable component. In response to a power good signal, an EMC protection device is rotated from a retracted state to an engaged state such that the EMC protection device is placed over an enclosure opening in the removable component forming an EMC seal. Full functionality of the removable component can be delayed until such time as the rotation is completed.
