<p>A disengageable electrical connector for connecting a printed circuit board 504 to a back plane 502. A block 501 has a plurality of connections 510, 511 embedded in it, arranged in a plurality of tiers. This block is bolted at 503 to the back plane to form pressure contact with contacts 507, 508. A retaining bar 509 is fixed to the block 501 by bolts 512, with spacers 514 defining a fixed gap, so that the card 504 can be slid into the gap to form sliding contact with contacts 505, 506. This arrangement avoids the use of connector pins on the back plane (as with known edge-on and plug-on connectors), which are difficult to repair or replace, but allows the card to easily removed, unlike the known pressure-pressure connectors. The retaining bar may be a connection block similar to block 501.</p> |
