Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0032537A2] The bus (10) is mounted in a through hole of a printed-circuit board (11) in order to receive a connection pin (19) of an element to be mounted on the printed-circuit board. The socket (10) comprises an elongate chamber (12) which is closed at one of its ends (13) and splayed out at its other end (14). The chamber (12) comprises projections (16 to 18) which form constrictions in the chamber such that, when the pin (19) is plugged in, the latter is subjected to deformations and comes into frictional contact with the projections. The constrictions give rise to frictional forces on the pin which hold it in place. This connection device is utilised for mounting components of electronic circuits on printed-circuit boards, these components being able to be easily removed. <IMAGE>
