Light-emitting element mounting construction

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE:To make it possible to mount a light-emitting element in a desired posture and make a display clearly by reliable projection by a method wherein a lower outer periphery of a light-emitting element is held, and a posture holding member for holding the posture is interposed between the light-emitting element and a printed board. CONSTITUTION:A hole 12a of a printed board 12 is aligned with a hole of a posture holding member 13, and the posture holding member 13 is disposed on the pointed board 12. Next, a light-emitting element LED 5 is inserted into a recess 14 of the posture holding member 13. A lead 5a of the LED 5 is inserted into the holes 13a, 12a. At this time, because the lower outer peripheral surface of the LED 5 is brought into contact with the inner peripheral surface of the recess 14. the inclination thereof is prevented. Each lead 5a projecting from the rear surface of the printed board 12 is soldered to a wiring pattern 15. As a result, the light from the LED 5 is reliably projected to an indicator 9, and the indicator 9 is illuminated clearly. The recess 14 of the posture holding member 13 can be formed in a condition in which it is inclined a predetermined angle.
