APPARATUS FOR THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION OF A CHIP CARD TO A PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD

摘要

An apparatus for the electrical connection of a chip card, in particular a SIM card, to a printed circuit board that has a housing (1) with a base plate (2) with apertures (3) arranged in such a way to coincide with the contact points on the chip card and contacts (4) provided in the housing which are bent substantially in a U-shape and have a first spring leg (41) to make contact with the chip card, have a second spring leg (42) to make contact with the circuit board, and have a central region (43) for fixing on the housing (1) where the first spring legs (41) are arranged substantially parallel to the base plate (2) and reach through the apertures (3) with a contact region (411), and the central region (43) of the contacts (4) extends substantially at right angles to the base plate (2).
