Abstract
A soldering fixture for coupling surface-mount leads of an edge connector to corresponding pads on a PCB includes a base for positioning over the edge connector. A threaded mounting shaft is connected to the base and rotatable relative thereto. An alignment shaft is threadably engaged with the threaded mounting shaft and connected to the base such that rotation of the threaded mounting shaft causes longitudinal movement of the alignment shaft relative to the threaded mounting shaft and the base. An adjustment device is connected to the threaded mounting shaft for rotating the threaded mounting shaft to move threads on the alignment shaft into engagement with the leads to move the leads into alignment with the pads.
