Claims16
A system for assembling an LED connector board, comprising:
- a set of connectors made out of an electrically conductive material for connecting electrical wires to an LED board,
- an injection molded base to which the set of connectors is attached, and
- a metal track with an integrated recess for accommodating the injection molded base and upon which the LED board can be attached.
The system of claim 8, wherein the wings are curved upwards away from the top surface of the injection molded base.
A method for assembling an LED connector board comprising the steps of:
- securing a set of leaf spring connectors on a top surface of an injection molded base;
- securing one or more electrical wires to the injection molded base by passing the electrical wires through to the top surface of the injection molded base via one or more insulating bosses extended from a bottom surface of the injection molded base through to one or more wire openings in the injection molded base;
- placing the injection molded base inside of an integrated recess on a metal track and passing the electrical wires through one or more of wire openings in the integrated recess;
- placing an LED board on a top surface of the metal track wherein a circular notch on a widthwise side of the LED board is aligned with a securing hole in the injection molded base and a securing hole in the integrated recess;
- securing the LED board to the metal track by attaching the LED board to the injection molded base and the integrated recess via a securing element that passes through the circular notch on the widthwise side of the LED board, the securing hole in the injection molded base and the securing hole in the integrated recess.
