ABSTRACT:
A plurality of circuit boards having male pin connectors are connected to a mother board having female pin receptor connectors, each circuit board being supported by a pair of grooved edge guide means. After the circuit boards are inserted into the device, a cover having a resilient foam pad on the inside surface thereof is closed wherein the foam pad resiliently presses against the upper edges of the circuit boards to hold them into position and maintain good electrical integrity with respect to the aforesaid connectors at the bottom portions of the circuit boards. Edge connectors may be plugged into the sides of the boards for further electrical access, and the heights of the edge guide means are high enough so that lower portions of the edge connectors are blocked and held in position by upper portions of the edge guides to prevent the edge connectors from being dislodged or loosened from the sides of the circuit boards.
