Dual purpose work board holder

摘要

A printed circuit board holder wherein several boards are securely held in place in a fixture by force exerting devices pushing against the board edges. The fixture includes recessed openings where the boards are located and force exerting devices positioned between pairs of the openings. The force exerting devices include an elliptical member which is mounted flush with the boards and is rotatable to push the two adjacent boards apart from each other. Contact is made only with the board edges to provide a smooth surface across the force exerting means, the circuit boards, and the fixture.
