Abstract: The mechanism establishes electrical connection of two printed circuit boards of separate devices that form individual modules within a stackable module system. In order to achieve a simply constructed connection mechanism, the printed circuit boards respectively have centering or spring clips into which an adapter assembly is pluggable. The adapter assembly is thereby composed of two blade or spring clips firmly connected to one another via an adapter assembly printed circuit board, whereby the adapter assembly is surrounded by shielding covers firmly connected to one another. In the plugged condition, the adapter assemblies are conducted through housing openings in oppositely residing housing parts of the devices stacked above one another, whereby the outsides of the shielding covers contact the surrounding edges of the housing openings.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for making contact with a multipole female strip connector for plug connections with coaxial connecting cables. In order to simplify the method and to save tools, a multi-row female strip connector is split into plastic disks, one side of the disk having insulation-piercing terminals which are arranged one behind the other and are connected to contact springs, and the other side having correspondingly formed, overmolded pressure pieces. The disks are held spaced apart in a pressing tool by means of corresponding press-in pins which have a force fit. Coaxial connecting cables, which are cut to length and at whose free ends the outer insulation and the shield mesh have been removed over a predetermined length, are pushed into these disks, which are preassembled spaced apart. When the disks are pressed together, the pressure pieces press the connecting wires into the insulation-piercing terminal.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for making contact between a multi-pole socket connector for plug-in connections and connecting wires. To simplify the method and economise on tools, a multi-row socket connector is split up into plastic plates, one side of the plate holding insulation piercing connecting devices and contact springs connected thereto, and the other side having correspondingly shaped integrally extruded pressure members. The plates are held at a spacing in a press tool by corresponding press-in pins having an interference fit. Connecting wires cut to length are inserted into these plates preassembled at a spacing. The connecting wires are pressed by the pressure members into the insulation piercing connecting device when the plates are pressed together.
