Abstract:
1. A surface mount clip formed by bending a metallic thin plate, and the surface mount clip comprising: a solder joint part in which a lower surface thereof is to be a solder joint surface to be soldered and connected to a conductor pattern on a printed circuit board, when the surface mount clip is mounted on an attachment surface of the printed circuit board; a pair of support parts spaced from one another and extending from the solder joint part in an upward direction from an upper surface of the solder joint part, and the pair of support parts extending parallel but displaced from one another such that when the solder joint part is soldered and connected to the printed circuit board, an interval formed between the pair of support parts, allows a conductive member, other than the printed circuit board, to be inserted therein; and a resilient contact part that is connected at least to one of the pair of support parts in a manner inclined toward the solder joint part, is resiliently deformed and pressed by the conductive member, when the conductive member is inserted between the pair of support parts, and electrically connects the conductor pattern and the conductive member by securing the conductive member between the pair of support parts; wherein the pair of support parts each comprises a parallel support portion disposed in parallel to the soldered joint part; and the pair of support parts each having first end, located in a direction perpendicular to a pressing direction of the resilient contact part, directly connected to one of the pluralities of the solder joint parts, and an opposed second end directly connected to another of the pluralities of the solder joint parts.
