TEMPERATURE MEASURING TYPE OUTSIDE CONNECTING MECHANISM FOR PRINTED WIRING BOARD

摘要

An elastic metallic piece (2) having a U-shaped cross section into which a prescribed edge of a printed wiring board (1) can be inserted is held on a terminal block (3) made of a rigid insulating material. A terminal (4) for connecting outside is fixed to the block (3) and, at the same time, electrically connected to the piece (2) in a tightly adhering state. A temperature detecting element (5) is fixed to the prescribed edge of the board (1) and, at the same time, connected to the electric circuit on the board (1). A contact (6) is formed by bending one end of the piece (2) toward the other end of the piece (2) and a temperature measuring section (7) having such a shape that can be engaged with the element (5) is formed by bending the other end of the piece (2) toward the nearest part of the terminal (4). When the prescribed edge of the board (1) is inserted into the U-shaped part of the piece (2) for use, the terminal (4) is connected to the electric circuit on the board (1) through the contact (6) and the element (5) is engaged with the section (7). Therefore, the temperature at the nearest part of the terminal (4) is detected and the output of the element (5) is supplied to the circuit.
