HOLDING MEMBER, PACKAGING STRUCTURE, AND ELECTRONIC COMPONENT

摘要

A holding member which can deal with deterioration in precision of a through hole, can be fitted into the through hole without causing any damage on the inner surface thereof and ensures high fixing rigidity after soldering. A packaging structure and an electronic component equipped with the holding member are also provided. The holding member (1), fitted into a through hole (51) provided in an electric circuit board (50) and holding an electronic component (80) on the electric circuit board (50), comprises a planar base portion (10) secured to the electronic component (80) a pair of opposing legs (20) extending in substantially the same direction from the base portion (10) and fitted in the through hole (51) while interfering with the inner surface (51a) of the through hole (51) and a second planar leg (30) extending between the pair of first legs (20) from the base portion (10) in the same direction while directing the edge face (33) toward the first leg (20).
