  • Non-soldered lead apparatus
    Patent number: 4763223
    Abstract: An apparatus including terminals for electronic devices such as display units or the like. The terminals are hermetically sealed into the structure of the electronic device during the assembly thereof. The terminal includes a bent, resilient end portion at the internal end thereof to make contact with electrical conductors within the device. The other end of the terminal extends beyond the edge of the device. The mid-region of the terminal is retained within the hermetic seal which is disposed adjacent to the edge of the apparatus.
