Edge assembly for attaching to flexible substrates

Abstract

There is described an edge assembly for attaching to flexible substrates. An example assembly may comprise at least a first edge component and a compression retainer component. The first edge component may include at least one conductor to mate with one or more conductors on a surface of a flexible substrate after the first edge component is affixed to an edge of the flexible substrate by the compression retainer component. The edge assembly may also comprise a second edge component, wherein the flexible substrate may be compressed between the first and second edge components and held in place by the compression retainer component. The first edge component may further comprise an extension, including the at least one conductor, that may be used to convey power from a power source to the flexible substrate. The extension is accessible from outside the flexible substrate via a port in the compression retainer component.
