  • Patent number: 5930118
    Abstract: A receiving device for component parts, such as electric assemblies, is connected directly to a circuit board. The weight of the electric assembly is carried by a supporting device on contacting the circuit board. A connector which is part of the electric assembly or one of its components is flexibly disposed with respect to a socket of the circuit board, so that the production tolerances can be compensated without problem and a plug-in connection can be achieved between the connector and the socket without the weight of the electric components placing a load on the plug-in connection.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 10, 1998
    Date of Patent: July 27, 1999
    Assignee: International Business Machines Corporation

  • Patent number: 5731961
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a receiving device for the component parts (4) connected directly with the circuit board (26), in particular electric assemblies. The weight of the electric assembly is carried by a supporting device (30) on contacting the circuit board. The connector (10) which is part of the electric assembly or one of its components is flexibly disposed with respect to the socket (34) of the circuit board, so that the production tolerances can be compensated without problem and a plug-in connection can be achieved between the connector and the socket without the weight of the electric component placing a load on the plug-in connection.
