摘要

Proposed is a socket (1) which forms part of a flat-pin connector designed for 19" racks. Mounted on it by means of soldering tabs (3) is a standard circuit board (2) which is fitted in a housing (9). The housing (9) has two parallel walls (13, 14) and is closed off from the socket by a half-frame (16). The part of the socket (1) facing towards the circuit board (2) has a central section (6) which not only carries the soldering tabs (3) but also acts as a stop for the circuit board (2). The dimensions and position of this central section (6) are such that the housing wall (13) which covers the solder side of the circuit board does not extend out more than a distance RŸ- defined by the distance between the pin array and the side of the socket (1), so that the whole of the rest of the width comprising nŸ- distances RŸ- is available for components and the other wall (14). The space available for components can be further increased by providing over the shoulder (10) as recess (12) which allows the circuit board (2) to be mechanically fixed in place by means of rivets or bolts passing through a hole (11).
