Method and system for connecting a plurality of printed circuit boards to at least one frame or carrier element and printed circuit board and frame or carrier element

摘要

In a method and a system for connecting a plurality of printed circuit boards (1) to at least one frame or carrier element (5), the following elements are provided:
a plurality of printed circuit boards (1), which are designed to have at least one coupling element (4) on at least one edge (2, 3),at least one frame or carrier element (5) for coupling to a plurality of printed circuit boards (1) using coupling elements (6) that in each case complement at least one coupling element (4) of the printed circuit boards (1), wherein the printed circuit boards (1) can be coupled to the at least one frame or carrier element (5) by fitting the coupling elements (4, 6) of the printed circuit boards (1) and of the frame or carrier element (5), and wherein the at least one frame or carrier element (5) only surrounds or encloses the printed circuit boards (1) over a partial region of the circumference. In addition, a printed circuit board (1) and a frame or carrier element (5) for use in such a method and system are provided.

1. A method for connecting a plurality of printed circuit boards to at least one frame or carrier element, comprising the steps of
providing a plurality of printed circuit boards which are each designed to have at least one coupling element on at least one edge, providing at least one frame or carrier element for coupling to a plurality of printed circuit boards using coupling elements that in each case complement the at least one coupling element of the printed circuit boards, and coupling or connecting the printed circuit boards to the at least one frame or carrier element by fitting together the coupling elements of the printed circuit boards and the frame or carrier element, wherein the at least one frame or carrier element only surrounds or encloses the printed circuit boards over a partial region of the periphery and in that the at least one coupling element of the circuit board is formed by a coupling element having a tapering cross section, and wherein a plurality of mutually spaced-apart circuit boards on a conveying element are brought into mutual positions provided for a connection to the at least one frame or carrier element, that the at least one frame or carrier element is moved in a supply direction substantially normal to the supply direction of the printed circuit boards towards the printed circuit board edges provided with the coupling elements, and that the coupling elements of the printed circuit boards are coupled or connected to the coupling elements of the frame or carrier element.
