Device comprising flexible printed circuit and connection auxiliary member

A device comprising a chassis and a flexible printed circuit, said flexible printed circuit having a terminal portion which is disposed so as to overlap with a mounted area of a circuit board mounted on a surface of said chassis, said flexible printed circuit being fixed to a surface of said chassis at a fixed location except for proximity to said terminal portion, wherein said device comprises a frame-shaped connection auxiliary member mounted to said flexible printed circuit, said connection auxiliary member having a through hole which is enable to insert said flexible printed circuit,

• wherein said connection auxiliary member lifts up said terminal portion of said flexible printed circuit from the surface of said chassis so as to act said fixed location as a fulcrum and to act said connection auxiliary member as a point of action by shifting said connection auxiliary member from said terminal portion side toward said fixed location side.

A device comprising a chassis and a flexible printed circuit, said flexible printed circuit having a terminal portion which is disposed so as to overlap with a mounted area of a circuit board mounted on a surface of said chassis,

• wherein said chassis comprises a connection auxiliary portion at an area in the vicinity of said terminal portion, said connection auxiliary portion being separated from said chassis, said connection auxiliary portion being coupled to said chassis by means of a hinge portion disposed to one end portion thereof,
• wherein said connection auxiliary portion lifts up said terminal portion of said flexible printed circuit from the surface of said chassis by rotating about said hinge portion to lift up an opposite side thereof.

A connection auxiliary member for use in connecting a terminal portion of a flexible printed circuit with a circuit board mounted on a surface of a chassis,

• wherein said connection auxiliary member comprises a fixed portion fixed to the surface of said chassis and a deformed portion connected to said fixed portion,
• wherein said connection auxiliary member having a function for lifting up said terminal portion of said flexible printed circuit from the surface of said chassis by deforming so as to rise a part thereof from the surface of said chassis when said deformed portion is pushed toward said fixed portion.

A chassis on which a circuit board is mounted, said circuit board being connected to a terminal portion of a flexible printed circuit,

• wherein said chassis has a connection auxiliary portion at an area in the vicinity of said terminal portion, said connection auxiliary portion being separated from said chassis, said connection auxiliary portion being coupled to said chassis by a hinge portion disposed to one end portion thereof,
• wherein said connection auxiliary portion has a function for lifting up said terminal portion of said flexible printed circuit from the surface of said chassis by rotating about said hinge portion to lift up an opposite side thereof.
