ABSTRACT:
A new physical construction for attaching a phosphor bronze terminal to a plastic bobbin assembly permits a lower component height and a reduced footprint size as well as providing improved positive mechanical locking of the bobbin pinouts to the bobbin. This mechanical locking is provided by bending the attached end of the phosphor bronze terminal by 90 degrees and inserting the terminal into the bobbin so that the inserted part of the terminal is inserted horizontally into the support member of the bobbin. In this new configuration the bent end embedded in the bobbin is parallel to the printed circuit board surface on which the bobbin is mounted preventing the phosphor bronze terminal from working loose due to vibration and motion in the vertical axis direction.
