Radical 17 is one of 23 of the 214 Kangxi radicals that are composed of 2 strokes.
It does not occur as a character on its own. In combination, it historically takes meanings such as "open mouth", "box", "frame", "hole" or "receptacle". In contemporary use, it is the base radical of the following characters:
Also derived from the radical are the Simplified Chinese characters 击 "to hit" and 画 "to paint", without any historical connection to the radical.
幽 "deep, dark" is derived from radical 46, "mountain" 山 rather than radical 17.
As for the similar radicals 22 匚 and 13 冂, the name of radical 17 is purely descriptive of its shape, 下三框 "lower three-sided frame".
