Abstract:
1. A device for the precise contact guidance of contact decks on a printed board with a mating region relative to electric contacts in a card edge connector, wherein said printed circuit board is provided with lateral bevels on both sides of the mating region, said device comprising: a pressing spring arranged on one side in an opening within a slot of the card edge connector, said pressing spring exerting a force initially on the lateral bevels and then on a flat lateral side during insertion of the printed circuit board into the card edge connector, thereby subjecting the mating region of the printed circuit board to lateral pressure against a lay-on region on an other flat side of the printed circuit board, before the circuit printed board is completely inserted in the slot, such that the contact decks on the printed circuit board are closely aligned and positioned relative to the electric contacts in the card edge connector, when the circuit printed board is completely inserted in the slot.
