Abstract
Abstract A printed circuit board having connection members mounted thereon. Connecting wires of circuit elements are inserted into sleeves of the connection members which are inserted in the insulating printed-circuit board. The connecting wires are then connected by means of solder carried in the sleeves. The sleeves project from one side of the board, and pin-shaped sections of the connection member project from the other side of the board.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
131 words
In combination, an insulating printed circuit board and a connecting member securely carried on said board, said connecting member comprising a pin-shaped portion projecting from at least one side of said board for connecting thereto electronic circuit elements by wrap connection, a substantially cylindrical sleevelike element integral with said pin-shaped portion projecting from the other side of said board substantially perpendicular thereto, said connecting member being clamped to said board at the area where said sleeve adjoins said pin shaped portion, an axial slit extending through said cylinder, and a solderable metal layer carried on said board closing that end of said cylindrical sleeve facing the board so that said sleeve is capable of containing an amount of solder for holding a connecting wire of a circuit element when inserted therein.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
131 words
In combination, an insulating printed circuit board and a connecting member securely carried on said board, said connecting member comprising a pin-shaped portion projecting from at least one side of said board for connecting thereto electronic circuit elements by wrap connection, a substantially cylindrical sleevelike element integral with said pin-shaped portion projecting from the other side of said board substantially perpendicular thereto, said connecting member being clamped to said board at the area where said sleeve adjoins said pin shaped portion, an axial slit extending through said cylinder, and a solderable metal layer carried on said board closing that end of said cylindrical sleeve facing the board so that said sleeve is capable of containing an amount of solder for holding a connecting wire of a circuit element when inserted therein.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
16 words
The combination according to claim 1 wherein said sleeve-like element is coaxial with said pin-shaped portion.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
132 words
In combination, an insulating printed circuit board and a connecting member securely carried on said board, said connecting member comprising a pin-shaped portion projecting from at least one side of said board for connecting thereto electronic circuit elements by wrap connection, a substantially cylindrical sleeve-like element integral with said pin-shaped portion projecting from the other side of said board substantially perpendicular thereto, said connecting member being clamped to said board at the area where said sleeve adjoins said pin-shaped portion, an axial slit extending through said cylinder and part of said pin-shaped portion bent at right angles thereto closing that end of said cylindrical sleeve facing the board so that said sleeve is capable of containing an amount of solder for holding a connecting wire of a circuit element when inserted therein.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
132 words
In combination, an insulating printed circuit board and a connecting member securely carried on said board, said connecting member comprising a pin-shaped portion projecting from at least one side of said board for connecting thereto electronic circuit elements by wrap connection, a substantially cylindrical sleeve-like element integral with said pin-shaped portion projecting from the other side of said board substantially perpendicular thereto, said connecting member being clamped to said board at the area where said sleeve adjoins said pin-shaped portion, an axial slit extending through said cylinder and part of said pin-shaped portion bent at right angles thereto closing that end of said cylindrical sleeve facing the board so that said sleeve is capable of containing an amount of solder for holding a connecting wire of a circuit element when inserted therein.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
16 words
The combination according to claim 3 wherein said sleeve-like element is coaxial with said pin-shaped portion.
