Abstract

An electromagnetic shielding clip for providing an electrical connection between two mating surfaces. The clip of the present invention comprises an electrically conductive sheet. The sheet is curved into a series of interconnected arc-shaped sections, each oriented opposite to the arc-shaped section adjacent to it. Two of the arc-shaped sections appear at opposite ends of the clip and are used to attach the clip to a mating surface through two parallel slots. Another arc-shaped section curves away from the parallel slots for contract to another mating surface. The present invention also includes a tool and method for inserting the clip.
