ABSTRACT:
A printed circuit board clamp, for clamping a printed circuit board to a housing of electronic, electric and apparatus installations, is secured to at least one fixing stud (1) disposed at the bottom of the housing and is provided with a bore (2). The clamp has an elongated body (4) having two ends (6 and 7) and an interconnecting neck portion (8) between the ends. The clamp also has fixing assembly (14-17) for securing the printed circuit board to the clamp. Each of the two ends of the clamp has a throughgoing aperture (9, 10) for screws or the like. At least one of the apertures is elongatedly shaped for securing the clamp to the fixing stud. To substantially facilitate mounting of printed circuit boards within different housings, the clamp includes at least a weakening point (25, 26) that can be broken manually without any tools in order to separate the ends (6, 7) of the clamp from the neck portion.
