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 12):
A method of assembling an electrical assembly to a circuit board, the method comprising:\n positioning a housing on a front side of a circuit board, the circuit board having the front side and an opposite rear side with a passage extending therethrough, the 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; and press-fitting the post of the housing within the passage 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, the post extends beyond the rear side of the circuit board to temporarily hold the housing on the circuit board by a primary holdingforce.
