    Abstract: An apparatus to retain an assembled component on one side of a double-sided printed circuit board during reflow of other components subsequently positioned on an opposite side of the double-sided printed circuit board and methods for manufacturing and using the same. The retainer includes a heat-expandable member and a retainer member. Being formed from a heat-expandable material, the heat-expandable member is coupled with the retainer member and is disposed about a periphery thereof. The retainer member is configured to be coupled with a component and, when the component is assembled onto a double-sided printed circuit board, to be received by an opening formed in the double-sided printed circuit board. The heat-expandable member is configured to expand during assembly of the component, engaging an inner surface that defines the opening. Thereby, the component is retained and supported when the double-sided printed circuit board is subsequently inverted, populated, and reflowed.

    Abstract: In a flexible print circuit having a plurality of signal wires, core wires formed from a shape memory material are provided on the two end portions thereof in the direction of width, and are caused to memorize a wiring completion shape within an electronic instrument in advance. In a wire harness having a plurality of signal wires, core wires formed from a shape memory alloy are disposed on the two sides of the planar signal wire array, or positioned along the central axis of the signal wires which are bundled into circular form. A guide frame for guiding a wire harness having a plurality of signal wires are caused to memorize in advance a shape which removes the wire harness from the movement range of a movable component within the electronic instrument.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to apparatus and methods for minimizing open electrical connections between carrier substrates and components connected thereto that occur due to sag in the substrate incurred due to exposure to an increasing heat profile encountered to secure the component to the substrate. A zero insertion force heat activated retention pin expands or bends during the temperature increase, creating an upward force on the printed circuit board. This upward force counters the downward sag forces and enables the carrier substrate to maintain a coplanar relationship with the component being connected.

    Abstract: There is disclosed a method of surface mounting a connector which enables a connector to be automatically mounted while preserving reliability of soldered portions and without additionally providing a special apparatus. The connector is formed to be thick at a portion and thin at another portion with respect to an axis C1. In surface mounting the connector on the printed circuit board, a hook member is inserted into a through hole formed in advance through the printed circuit board. Then, the reflow process is carried out on the printed circuit board whereby terminals of the chips including the lead pins are soldered. The printed circuit board is removed from a reflow furnace, and cooled, whereupon the hook member is bent toward a hooking portion side. This brings the hooking portion into engagement with the underside of the printed circuit board, whereby the connector is firmly fixed to the printed circuit board.

    Abstract: There is disclosed a method of surface mounting a connector which enables a connector to be automatically mounted while preserving reliability of soldered portions and without additionally providing a special apparatus. The connector is formed to be thick at a portion and thin at another portion with respect to an axis C.sub.1. In surface mounting the connector on the printed circuit board, a hook member is inserted into a through hole formed in advance through the printed circuit board. Then, the reflow process is carried out on the printed circuit board whereby terminals of the chips including the lead pins are soldered. The printed circuit board is reroved from a reflow furnace, and cooled, whereupon the hook member is bent toward a hooking portion side. This brings the hooking portion into engagement with the underside of the printed circuit board, whereby the connector is firmly fixed to the printed circuit board.

    Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to a reusable actuating device utilizing multiple integrated planar shape memory alloy elements integrated with independent driver circuits and at least one return spring integrated onto a single multi-layer PCB with a novel layout to create an electrically and mechanically redundant integrated actuator solution uniquely suited for use in low-profile devices that can be utilized by themselves or as an initiator in a staged device to release higher loads. The apparatus of the invention is particularly useful for spacecraft and other vehicular actuation devices.
