Clamp for tensile wires applied to printed circuit board - has forked element inserted into board and holding connection by friction

摘要

The forces are applied to the circuit board contact points by a flexible connection. The device has a holding element demountably connected to the circuit board. The holding element (1) is fork-shaped, and its prongs (3, 4) are inserted vertically into holes in the circuit board (5). The connection (16) is inserted into the element (1) with several bends and is held in it by friction. The holder (1) is made of flexible material, pref. being of a square-U section, the outer prongs (4) having externally extending lugs (11) with chamfered edges so that they may be pushed through the holes before the subsequent expansion.
