  • Patent number: 7735217
    Abstract: For purposes of assembling contact pins (12) disposed in a row onto a circuit board (16), the pins (12) are grasped via a force fit in an insulating body (20) at their ends facing away from the circuit board (16)and are supported to prevent tilting. The body (20) has a suction surface (26) for an automated assembly device. After insertion of the pins (12) into the circuit board (16) and after the soldering process, the body (20) is pulled off the pins (12), so that they sit freely in the circuit board (16).
