Arrangement for removing excess voltage from electronic device has elastic element protruding through contact opening in electronic device component, pressed against housing element, contact surface

摘要

The electronic device has a housing element (1) of electrically conductive material electrically connected to a reference potential. The electrical connection is made with a connecting element (2) of elastic material protruding through a contact opening (3) in a component (11) of the electronic device and simultaneously pressed against the housing element and a contact surface (4) enclosing the opening and connected to the reference potential. An independent claim is also included for the following: (a) a connecting element for removing excess voltages from an electronic device.
