Abstract:
An electronic module includes a circuit board, a first component, and a socket element with a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface. The first surface lies on a surface of the circuit board and is fixed to the circuit board. A second component is secured to the socket element and is electrically connected to the circuit board via the socket element. A protective compound is arranged on the surface of the circuit board and encapsulates the first component. The socket element is partly embedded into the protective compound such that lateral flanks of the socket element are covered by the protective compound, and the second surface of the socket element protrudes out of the protective compound. Connection elements of the socket element and connections of the second component are connected via a welding connection. Second components are attachable to the circuit board in a reliable manner.
Abstract:
There is described an edge assembly for attaching to flexible substrates. An example assembly may comprise at least a first edge component and a compression retainer component. The first edge component may include at least one conductor to mate with one or more conductors on a surface of a flexible substrate after the first edge component is affixed to an edge of the flexible substrate by the compression retainer component. The edge assembly may also comprise a second edge component, wherein the flexible substrate may be compressed between the first and second edge components and held in place by the compression retainer component. The first edge component may further comprise an extension, including the at least one conductor, that may be used to convey power from a power source to the flexible substrate. The extension is accessible from outside the flexible substrate via a port in the compression retainer component.
Abstract:
A circuit board that is to be mounted in a connector socket includes a plurality of electrical connectors located along a side edge of the circuit board. Retention bosses are formed on first and second opposite sides of the circuit board, each of the retention bosses protruding from a surface of the circuit board and extending parallel to and adjacent to the first edge of the circuit board. When the first edge of the circuit board is inserted into a slot of a connector socket, contact surfaces of the first and second retention bosses contact top surfaces of the connector socket to help immobilize the circuit board with respect to the connector socket. Adhesive layers on the contact surfaces of the first and second retention bosses may adhere to the top surfaces of the connector socket to help hold the circuit board immobile with respect to the connector socket.
Abstract:
A battery holder for attachment to a printed circuit board includes a base, a positive conductor, a negative conductor and a top. The base is to be fixed to the printed circuit board and the two conductors are fixed to the base. The top includes a window for viewing the polarity of the battery and is selectively attached to the base by a series of latches.
Abstract:
Methods and systems for removably mounting a Solid State Drive (SSD) to a Printed Circuit Board (PCB) device without use of a tool. An exemplary system comprises a top portion and at least two flexible legs. Each leg comprises a vertical member attached to the top portion, and a tab for insertion into the PCB, the tab restricting the motion of the drive enclosure with respect to the PCB when inserted into the PCB, thereby allowing for removable attachment of the enclosure to the PCB without use of a tool. The drive enclosure itself is adapted to receive the SSD and adapted to align the SSD for physical coupling with a connector for the PCB.
Abstract:
An electrical component mounting assembly is disclosed for attaching a cylindrical electrical component (C1) such as capacitor, diode, or resistor to a mounting member such as a printed circuit board in a horizontal or vertical orientation. The mounting assembly can have a housing (12) and a sleeve (14) placed around the electrical component which cooperates with the housing to retain the electrical component to the housing. A substantially inner cylindrical wall (32) of the housing can taper inward from an entrance (34) end to a rear wall (18) to form a tapering or narrowing chamber (30). The sleeve can have a slit that runs along the entire length of the sleeve and a tapered outer surface (28) that cooperates with the tapered chamber to clamp or compress against the electrical component as the sleeve is inserted into the housing. The lack of appreciable expansion of the housing creates a tight friction fit to secure the sleeve to the housing. The sleeve can also include a plank that is received in an opening in the housing which can be heat staked to reinforce the friction fit taper lock between the housing and sleeve. The housing can be dimensioned to mount more than one electrical component diameter size by varying the dimensions of the sleeve, and in particular the thickness of sleeve.
Abstract:
A subsea control system may include a computer unit including a printed circuit board that contains a central processing unit, and a socket for holding at least one memory card, whereby the computer unit has a screw hole, a wedged plate is fixed above at least a part of the socket by a screw which is screwed into the screw hole for fixing the at least one memory card placed in the socket.
Abstract:
There is provided an image pickup module which can be formed by a simple process while securing the mechanical strength of an inner lead at the time of bending and when fixed, without increasing an outer dimension of the image pickup module.The image pickup module includes an image pickup element having an image pickup surface, and a flexible substrate is drawn to be directed rearward of the image pickup surface. A guide member which fixes the image pickup element and the flexible substrate is provided, and the guide member includes a portion which is extended along a rear surface of the image pickup element, and a portion which is extended along a gap between the image pickup element and the flexible substrate.
