Illuminated display system and method of wiring said system

摘要

An improved illuminated display system is disclosed which can be positively and accurately assembled with a plurality of low profiled illuminated indicator units to display a wide variety of input information. The illuminated indication is provided by a plurality of light emitting diodes inserted in edgewise fashion into slots in flat flexible circuitry with the remaining components attached thereto in conventional fashion. The circuit assembly is folded into containers to form the individual indicator units which are likewise, preferably, inserted into apertures in high current flat flexible circuitry to make wiping contact with the conductors thereof. The subject system obviates the prior art requirement for working in cramped spaces behind panels by providing the means to connect the indicator units of a display to associated circuitry from the front of the panel thereby producing a low profiled display panel.
