METHOD FOR MOUNTING COMPONENTS ON A CONDUCTOR NETWORK FOR THE CIRCUIT SUPPORT OF AN ELECTROMECHANIC WATCH MOVEMENT AND PARTIALLY EQUIPPED CONDUCTOR NETWORK OF A CLOCK

摘要

A strip conductor assembly is prefabricated so as to be able to be mounted as a unit into a circuit board of an electro-mechanical clock movement without thereafter requiring further fabrication. The assembly is formed by attaching a circuit chip to a strip conductor network which has already had the necessary gaps formed between ends of respective strips. Wires are attached between the chip and respective strips, and a reinforcing cap is attached to the network so as to interconnect and rigidify certain ones of the strip conductors. A molten plastic mass is poured into an open side of the cap. The mass hardens to completely encapsulate both sides of the strips as well as the chip and wires. That assembly is then cut from the network to form a one-piece prefabricated unit which can be installed in a circuit board of a clock movement.
