Abstract:
An electrical assembly includes a housing extending between front and rear ends. The housing includes a post extending between a base end and a free that is loaded into a passage of the circuit board and engages the circuit board in a primary locking operation such that the post secures the housing to the board by a primary holding force. A contact is received in the housing and has a mating end at the front end of the housing for mating with a mating electrical assembly and a terminating end at the rear end of the housing for electrical connection with the board. The free end of the post is locked to the rear side of the board by a secondary locking operation that secures the housing to the board by a secondary holding force that is greater than the primary holding force.

Claim (Index 1):
An electrical assembly configured to be mounted to a circuit board having a front side and an opposite rear side with a passage extending therethrough, the electrical assembly comprising:\n a housing including a body extending between a front end and a rear end, the front end configured to be mated with a mating electrical assembly, the rear end including a mating surface configured to be coupled to the front side of the circuit board, the housing having a post extending therefrom, the post extending between a base end at the mating surface and a free end disposed a distance away from the mating surface, wherein the post has a constant diameter surface extending axially from the mating surface the free end that is smaller in diameter than the passage, wherein the constant diameter surface includes a surface feature extending radially outwardly therefrom to cause the post to have a diameter sized greater than a diameter of the passage, wherein the housing is configured to be disposed on the front side of the circuit board such that the post is loaded into the passage of the circuit board and engages the circuit board in a primary locking operation such that the post surface feature is configured to secure the housing to the circuit board by a primary holding force; and a contact received in the housing, the contact having a mating end and a terminating end, the mating end accessible at the front end of the housing for mating with the mating electrical assembly, the terminating end accessible at the rear end of the housing for electrical connection with the circuit board, wherein the free end of the post is configured to be locked to the rear side of the circuit board by a secondary locking operation, the secondary locking operation is configured to secure the housing to the circuit board by a secondary holding force that is greater than the primary holding force.
