METHOD FOR MOUNTING OF ELECTRIC CONNECTOR ONTO CIRCUIT BOARD, ELECTRIC CONNECTOR TO BE MOUNTED ONTO CIRCUIT BOARD AND SUPPORT MEMBER USED FOR ITS MOUNTING

摘要

PURPOSE: To provide a receptacle in which positioning of a horizontal surface is facilitated for preventing it from floating during a soldering process period. CONSTITUTION: A support plate 40 is integrally formed on a circuit board 36. The circuit board 36 and the support plate 40 exist in the same plane. A support pad 28a is fitted with an fitting header 22b of a housing 12 of a receptacle 10. The housing 12 is held horizontally to a circuit board 36 by a surface on the side of a solder tail 22a supported by the circuit board 36 and a surface on the side of the fitting header 22b supported by the support plate 40 through the support pad 28a.
