FISH HOOK HOLD-DAWNS

摘要

A fish hook hold-down (100) for securing a component, such as a connector, to a printed circuit board assembly has a curved housing attaching portion (102) located with the component and a strip (104) connecting therewith. An end portion of the strip (104) is folded over and shaped to form a fish-hook portion (106) for engaging in a hole of the printed circuit board. The fish-hook portion (106) has a barb (140) and is shaped to facilitate entry into the hold of the printed circuit board but to resist withdrawal with the barb (140). IMAGE
