摘要

An apparatus for interconnection of two personal computer style processor printed circuit boards comprises a bridge printed circuit board having edge connectors on opposing edges thereof and support member for supporting the processor printed circuit boards in facing parallel arrangement with each edge connector of the bridge printed circuit board engaged in a mating socket on one of the processor boards. The support member advantageously provides pivotable support of at least one of the processor boards to permit insertion and removal of an edge connector of the bridge board into and from the mating socket of a processor board. The support member further advantageously comprises an enclosure and the pivotable support advantageously comprises a support bracket having notched end panels for engagement with pivot pins fixed to opposing surfaces of the enclosure.
