  • Publication number: 20080029923
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a tape wiring board in accordance with the present invention may employ an imprinting process in forming a wiring pattern thereby reducing the number of processes for manufacturing a tape wiring board and allowing the manufacturing process to proceed in a single production line. Therefore, the manufacturing time and cost may be reduced. A profile of the wiring pattern may be determined by the shape of an impression pattern of a mold. This may establish the top width of inner and outer leads and incorporate fine pad pitch. Although ILB and OLB process may use an NCP, connection reliability may be established due to the soft and elastic wiring pattern.

  • Publication number: 20080032549
    Abstract: The mounting device serves to receive an electrical plug coupling for the connection of an electronic circuit assembly. It has a coupling receptacle (2), which is pivotally mounted on a door handle carrier (10) and is locked against tilting in an installation position and can be pivoted into an operational position. The coupling receptacle (2) is guided by means of two formations (9) projecting on opposite sides in parallel guide slots (7). The guide slots (7) each have at least one slot constriction (8?), through which the formations (9) can be forced only after overcoming a predetermined threshold force. Rigidly connected to the coupling receptacle (2) is at least one tilt locking element (13b). The tilt locking element comes into engagement, in the installation position, with an opposing component (16) fixed to the door and then comes out of engagement with the opposing component when the formations (9) have passed the slot constrictions (8?) in the guide slots (7).
